An arrest, nearly five years after someone planted explosives the night before the January 6th Capitol attack.

We just got photos in of the suspect. The lead starts right now.

It was the grainy video that spurred conspiracy theories for years, and now the FBI says they finally know who put those pipe bombs outside Republican

and Democratic National Committee headquarters. But will this arrest silence all those right-wing

conspiracy theorists? Plus, out with the old. What sources are telling CNN about President

Trump replacing the architect in charge of designing his brand new White House ballroom.

And after claims of racist comments and a rigged contest, I'm going to talk with Miss Universe

right here on the lead about all the drama that led to her pageant win and much more.

Welcome to The Lead. I'm Jake Tapper. After nearly five years of investigation, the FBI

finally announced that they had arrested a suspect, a suspect accused of planting pipe

bombs near the Republican and Democratic National Committee headquarters the night

before the January 6, 2021 Capitol attack.

Brian Cole Jr., a 30-year-old white man from the D.C. suburbs is charged with transporting an explosive device in interstate commerce

and with malicious destruction by means of explosion. CNN observed local and federal law enforcement

outside his home in Woodbridge, Virginia this morning.

Attorney General Pam Bondi gave very few details

Today's arrest happened because the Trump administration has made this case a priority.

Let me be clear.

There was no new tip.

There was no new witness.
