The arrest comes after five years of investigations into who planted two explosive devices outside the headquarters of the Republican and Democratic parties.
Daily Wire reporter Tim Pierce is here to talk about what we know after this major development in the case.

Vice President Kamala Harris was actually in the DNC headquarters when that one was found.
