Attorney General Pam Bondi, alongside Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Director Kash Patel and Deputy Director Dan Bongino, are holding a press conference on the arrest of Brian Cole, the suspect linked to the planting of pipe bombs at the Democratic and Republican National Committees on January 5, 2021.
The arrest was made in Woodbridge, Virginia, and stemmed not from new tips, but from a comprehensive review of existing evidence that had not been properly examined under the former Joe Biden government.
Dan Bongino, who led the investigation, emphasized how a change in focus under President Donald J. Trump had enabled the breakthrough, stating, “Folks, this is what it’s like when you work for a president who tells you to go get the bad guys and stop focusing on other, extraneous things not related to law enforcement.”
