And then and then only, once it's cleared safe, do we send in our evidence response teams to go in there.

They're there.

They're still there.

They're still going through it because that's how long it takes because we can't put FBI agents in harm's way just to collect evidence.

So that's why this search is taking so long and will continue, in my opinion, probably throughout the weekend and into the coming weeks.

And we're going to start talking to his family members and associates and putting those people probably, in my opinion, in grand juries.

But that is a decision up to the Department of Justice.

And we'll work with them to make sure we get every single witness they need in the box.

Um, I can't really characterize that because that's going to be presented ultimately in court.

We've, we have it documented and it's a piece of the evidentiary chain and we want that to be presented without, um, tarnishing our judicial records.

So we're working closely with Jeanine Pirro and the attorney general to make sure that information is tightly held till we submit it publicly.

We've got the right guy based on the totality of information and other information we haven't publicly released yet that we just can't right now.

I know the public wants to know everything right away, but I want to remind the American public how this FBI operates.

Yes, we are the most transparent FBI in history.

We have provided 40,000 pages of documents to Congress versus Ray, who provided 13,000 in seven years, and Comey provided 3,000 in three and a half years.

But while we're simultaneously doing that and doing shows like yours to inform the public, we are reaching the point of accountability that everybody wants.

Nobody wants this individual, the pipe bomber, to walk away freely.

I totally get that.

And I understand that there's frustration, but that's how we do it here.

You know, especially when it comes to motive, that's just not something we can address right now.
