And the doctor who gave Matthew Perry ketamine is sentenced to 30 months behind bars. I'm Daily Wire executive editor John Bickley. It's Thursday, December 4th. This is Evening Wire.
A suspect tied to the planting of pipe bombs outside of the Republican and Democrat Party headquarters the night before January 6th has been arrested by the FBI. Daily Wire reporter Tim Pierce has the story. The arrest of Brian Cole Jr. comes more than five years after the incident and after the investigation seemed to stall.
According to the FBI, while the pipe bombs did not detonate, they could have been deadly. Cole is being charged with the use of an explosive device, and investigators say that he may have had, quote, anarchist leanings. Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel addressed the arrest in a press conference today.

Chapter 2: What happened in the January 6 pipe bomb incident?
Meanwhile, the Defense Department inspector general says Secretary Hegseth likely violated Pentagon regulations, but not the law, when he shared details about an attack on Houthi terrorists in Yemen. Daily Wire senior editor Virginia Kruda reports.
The inspector general's report delivered to Congress on Tuesday states that the war secretary can declassify any war department information he chooses. That means that although regulation states that Hegseth should not have shared sensitive information via signal, his actions may not rise to the level of a violation of law.
According to the report, Hegseth received classified information from a message labeled secret no foreign about the planned attack on Houthi terrorists from the U.S. Central Command commander. He then sent some of that information, albeit without the classified designation, via the signal chat.
Hegseth has explained that he made the command decision to share that information in the moment with the group in question. This episode is sponsored by the University of Austin, Texas. You know college is broken. Activist professors, seminars that feel like struggle sessions, $80,000 a year to hear Hamas chants on the quad while being told America is evil in class. So what's the alternative?
It's called the University of Austin, or UATX. At UATX, students are in small seminars taught by great professors. They read the great books of Western civilization to learn from them, not tear them down. They build actual companies on campus with mentorship from a vast network of top entrepreneurs and investors. You can be openly Christian or Jewish without apology.

Chapter 3: Who was arrested in connection with the January 6 pipe bomb case?
And when you walk into the main atrium, there's a giant American flag. UATX admits students based purely on test scores, so the application takes just five minutes. Oh, and another thing. Tuition is completely free. Forever. It's funded by American patriots who want to create the Navy SEALs of the mind, not another generation of credentialed activists.

In what's being seen as a slap to Zoran Mamdani, New York City Mayor Eric Adams announced an anti-BDS executive order Wednesday that bars the city from making business or pension investment decisions that discriminate against Israel. Daily Wire reporter Breka Stoll has more on the story.
As the New York Post notes, the anti-BDS order now puts Mamdani on the spot to decide whether to support or resend the order when he gets into office. Mamdani has openly supported the boycott, divestment, and sanctions movement, which singles out Israel and companies and entities connected to it for exclusion.
But Adams says the city under his leadership has a far different view, saying, quote, this administration recognizes the benefit of maintaining a strong relationship between the city of New York and the state of Israel. Another order Adams signed increases police protections for synagogues and other religious institutions against harassment.
Russian President Vladimir Putin arrived in India for a two-day visit with Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Modi greeted Putin warmly with a hug on the airport tarmac. He also posted a selfie of the pair on X, calling Putin, my friend. The meeting comes on the heels of the European Commission's pledge to stop buying Russian oil and President Trump's pressure on India to do the same.
Putin and Modi are expected to sign multiple deals during the visit, which may include both energy and military equipment, as a continuation of their longstanding alliance. Erica Kirk has agreed to a primetime town hall with CBS News. It comes three months after the assassination of her husband, conservative activist Charlie Kirk. Daily Wire assistant editor Andy Valdez reports.
The event will be moderated by CBS editor-in-chief Barry Weiss and will feature questions from young evangelicals, religious leaders, and voices across the political spectrum. Erika is expected to speak openly about grief, forgiveness, and the country's deepening political divide.
Weiss says she hopes the conversation will elevate the national discussion that followed the assassination, which shocked Americans this past September. This special will be broadcast on Saturday, December 13th at 8 p.m. Eastern.

Chapter 4: What are the implications of the arrest for the January 6 investigation?
She said he had, quote, mused that he would want to be in the room for every decision. During an interview with The Atlantic, Shapiro reacted to the comments, which he seemingly heard for the first time, saying, "...I did ask a bunch of questions. Wouldn't you ask questions if someone was talking to you about forming a partnership and working together?"
Shapiro was also told that Harris wrote that the governor asked her residence manager specific questions about the VP residence, and that's when Shapiro really went off. He said, "...that's complete and utter BS." And he called her accounts just blatant lies. Shapiro also accused Harris of trying to, quote, cover her ass and wanting to sell books.
The doctor who gave Friends star Matthew Perry ketamine in the weeks before his death has been sentenced to 30 months in federal prison. Daily Wire Entertainment reporter Amanda Harding has more.
Court papers show that former physician Salvador Plasencia messaged another doctor on the day he met Perry about how much to charge him for the drug. I wonder how much this moron will pay, Plasencia wrote. Let's find out. Dr. P, as he's known, then drove to the actor's home and injected him with the drug, leaving more of it with Perry's assistant.
He gave Perry the drug multiple times over the next few weeks, before Perry died in his hot tub on October 28, 2023. An autopsy cited drowning, coronary artery disease, and the effects of an opioid addiction treatment drug. Dr. P pleaded guilty this summer to four counts of distribution of ketamine and gave up his state medical license a few months later.
