This is inside of the pipe bomb, if you could that there have been images that law enforcement has been sharing with each other, showing wires and appears to be some rudimentary device put together with tape. now, look, these are rudimentary devices but they are still possibly deadly, and so this is the reason why the fbi took the extraordinary move tonight of putting out this essentially call for help from the public. there s a lot of work that goes behind the scenes at the fbi before they even put something out like this, and it tells us that they urgently want to try to find this person, they want to make sure that there are no other packages out there, but warn people if they see something like this to make sure they don t touch them and immediately call law enforcement. and they re treating this, jake, as a domestic terror incident, essentially these are there s a serial bomber here, domestic serial bomber, who is trying to kill people and it shouldn t be lost on everyone, obv
