that they are able to look at debbie wassermann schultz' records and look at maybe some of the people who were a threat in the past, and is that a lead. are you seeing it as we start to get an idea of some of the thing th things that are happening inside of the investigation that it is moving ahead about at the pace, and about where you thought that it would? >> yeah, it is moving fast. florida is a big state. and you know, i was a florida cop, and it is a big state. where the post office is may not be in south florida, but central or north florida. debbie wassermann schultz's name was on the packages and so that the recipients would open the package and this is why her name was on that, and that is why the bombers do that, they put the returned a dress of someone that you know. and actually, it was a good selection because except for mr. brennan, everybody else probably does know debbie wassermann schultz, and so that is a clever tactic to get the recipient to open the bomb. >> and jim cavenaugh and jonathan dienst, thank you. >>> and also, can you know who is listening in on the pre

most of them in the padded materials, and all of them with debbie wassermann schultz' phony address on them, and they appear to be working explosives, but whether or not they have worked and we had appeared this graphic, and we were not naming debbie wassermann schultz, but now we are because they are searching her offices in florida to see if one of those devices was there, and one of a couple of things to emphasize, the one sent to the clintons and the obamas here never got anywhere near the addresses or the homes in new york or here in washington, and they were all intercepted at off site mail facilities, and the one sent to george soros in new york was placed in the mailbox, and the one to the cnn was according to cnn found in their mail room. so they were not diverted before they were sent, because they are nongovernment facilities. and so we know now of five devices that we know of for sure. soros, obamas, clintons, cnn and the question now is the one that is the suspicious package received at debbie wassermann schultz' florida office one of these or not. a simple look will deter

debbie wassermann schultz was the return address. they were able to find these two packages, both were in postal offices in delaware, one outside of wilmington. now at this point the two packages are being sent to the fbi for examination. a third package was discovered at the production office of robert de niro, another critic of the current administration. that package has been turned over to the fbi. the fbi is doing the work, wolf. they have 10 packages they believe a person has sent at least 10 packages, some of which have been found to be dangerous and possible bombs. they are trying to figure out how to isolate who might have sent these. the work is going on, trying to examine, for example, whether or not there is dna from a possible bomber that they can identify. they are looking at components to figure out where the components were bought and where the packages were shipped from. there is a lot of clues they can get from the packages. we look at the bombings in austin, texas. one of the ways they were able to identify the bom

minutes or, so and now a scene unrising in sunrise, florida, the offices of congresswoman debbie wassermann schultz, and not just a regular congresswoman if you will, and debbie wassermann schultz at one point running the the dnc and a prominent fund r-raiser for democrats at some time, and her office, her sunrise office has been evacuated as the police officials there try and figure out precisely who is behind it, and what they are dealing with there. do i still have malcolm nance as well? malcolm, are you with me? >> yes. >> okay. ma malcolm, there is a lot that we don't know, and the chief question being who is behind it or what group might be behind this. and no one is claiming responsibili responsibility, so far. what do we know about the kind of person or people who send pipe bombs, malcolm? >> well, clint van zandt have given you some good point erers this. and every year, the bureau of tobacco and firearms make up a sum are ri of all of the explosives sent around the united states, and pipe bombs are one of the smaller number of explosives that are used. most of the containers are five gall

the return label on these packages did have debbie wassermann-schultz's name, the former dnc chair.also received a package at her headquarters. law enforcement also told fox news the choice of pipe used in some of these packages was very unusual. there was a press conference that was held literally right behind me just a few hours ago and you had mayor de blasio saying this is new york and this is a part of us. listen in. >> what we saw here today was an effort to terrorize. this clearly is an act of terror, attempting to undermine our free press and leaders of this country through acts of violence. i want to make very clear that the people of new york city will not be intimidated, that we are going to go about our lives undeterred, because the very concept of terrorism is to change us, and we will not allow that to happen. you cannot be terrorized if you refuse to allow the terrorists to win. reporter: we have just more news, too, the packages, there will be images of the packages released to the public so people can get familiarized with the similarities, the color of the packages

obama another package arrived at the office is a former senior democratic party official debbie wassermann schultz in florida it was reported that the package had in fact that intended before obama attorney general eric holder for the wrong address was used and forwarded to. the sender on the envelope a package address to congress when maxine waters was also intercepted at a mail processing facility she's a frequent target of donald trump's attacks president trump said all the resources of government. could be used to find those responsible in these times we have to unify we have to come together and send one very clear strong and mistake of all message that access where threats of political violence of any kind have no place in the united states of america for the mayor of new york to the packages all addressed to liberal opponents of donald trump are a symptom of the current political atmosphere in the us this atmosphere of hatred is contributing to the choices people are making to turn to violence there's no question about it and the way to stop that is to turn back the other way to bring down

appeared that there was an attempt to return to sender back to the same sending address at debbie wassermann schultz in florida. what the authorities were able to do is track down the two packages, both in the wilmington area. newcastle and wilmington. the authorities have now removed the two packages. they believe it's safe enough for the two locations to be declared safe. you can see the reaction that was spreading today, especially because the day began with a call from robert de niro's production company and a security officer fountain envelope that matched exactly like the other ones we have seen and called the police and new york police department was able to remove that device. it looked exactly like the others we have seen. they did an x-ray and they found what looked like the same type of device. that one is being examined by the fbi. the fbi has taken over this investigation and treating it as a domestic terror investigation and everything as the mayor said in the video you just played, everything is a clue. everything from the envelopes and from where the postal markings from where these

debbie wassermann schultz with the name swelled wrong here in florida. the former dnc chair. it's interesting to see what was on that van. they believe they have the right person. they have been working on this and zeroing in on florida since yesterday, we understand. they made the arrest this morning here at the auto zone along with the van. wolf some. >> randi, this is a development unfolding even as we speak. what investigators need to know first and foremost, are there more packages on the way. what do we know about that? >> reporter: that's what is unclear. we don't know if this man is cooperating with investigators. he was taken into custody earlier this morning. we don't know if he was taken without incident. we don't know if he said anything when he was taken into custody or how long they had been tracking him. if they were tracking him for days or even just the last 24 hours. there goes the fbi with their evidence pulling away from the auto zone here. that's one of the questions they will be asking this guy if there were more packages on the way. that is the utmost i

there are reports of at least some of the other packages also had the same return address debbie wassermann schultz office democratic party official in florida house where the packages received by hillary clinton barack obama the secret service emphasizing there was never any danger of them receiving the packages again these were packages that had been discovered detected during a routine mail screening as potential explosive devices that screening happens well off site so they were never in any danger however as you mentioned george soros he did receive that pipe bomb in his his mailbox the package that was addressed to john brennan did arrive at the c.n.n. center in new york. as she had been the past obviously president trump has used some pretty colorful language even when he was on president when he was just campaigning he said he used to want to punch opponents in the face or rough up journalists once he said he paid the legal fees of someone else who did that now he's gonna change this tune as any now he's talking about you know there's no place in the usa for acts of threat of political viol

eric holder and the return address list is debbie wassermann schultz from the democratic national committee in florida and a 13th at a sacramento facility addressed to kamala harris. it's not hidden here the motivation. all of the targets, democrats and critics of the president. when you are leading an investigation like this, how much do the words of the president or the sweet fist they are diverting from the facts impact your work? >> it won't. it doesn't matter what the public is saying and what the media is respecting with regard to possible political motivation. they are taking every step of the way meticulously and knowing the victims or the targets of the mailings doesn't tell you specifically the motivation. we can assume it and it's a pro right wing numbers of the left or progressives or democrats. we don't know that for sure. that might lead me to ignore the facts. it's all about the facts and the evidence. >> and it should be. let me ask you about that. >> amen for that. let's plaud the work who moved quickly to get this suspect into custody. we showed them putting the tarp on th

congresswoman debbie wassermann-schultz's last name spelled without the "c" in schultz. and it says on december 24th there was a twitter post critical of president obama and george soros. so that's the evidence, and it's just amazingly fast work. >> let me ask you about this, pete, i was struck -- >> i'm sorry, i've lost communication with you so back to you. >> fair enough. tom winter i'm going to ask you because i was struck, christopher wray did not say when the president was informed about this. but when jeff sessions was asked and i guess he could have given the answer he doesn't have the information or didn't want to talk about it, he did say this appears to be the work of a partisan. >> right. so i think one of the things when you look -- obviously they were onto this person's social media. these days a person's social media account provides such a trove of evidence. >> and he happened to be driving a van that was also a bit of an ad. >> yes, the van definitely helped. so when you combine the social media, combined the spelling, that is very fascinating because th
