Thanks, Bill. Here's what's happening this week in America. Pipe bomber arrested admiral to Capitol Hill, the Trump peace summit and big economy news. It's all coming up. Then Bill's going to be here with your message of the day. But first, the FBI has arrested almost five years later a suspect in the pipe bombs that were planted at the RNC and DNC on January 5, 2021. Investigators later determined that these were viable explosives that if detonated, could have resulted in serious injury or death. The FBI offered a reward of half a million dollars to anyone who provided information leading to the arrest of the suspect. Court documents revealed that bank records showing purchases of pipe bomb material and cell phone tower data were used to identify Brian Cole, Jr. He worked for a bail bond company run by his father that worked to free illegal immigrants from ICE facilities and also sued the Trump administration's Department of Homeland Security. More information on Brian Cole, Jr. Surely to come. Navy Admiral Frank Bradley went to Capitol Hill last night to brief lawmakers in the House and the Senate about details of a September 2nd attack on a drug boat in the Caribbean. Now, the background to this is do you remember the seditious six? These are congressmen and senators who made a video telling service members to not obey unlawful orders. And when they were asked what unlawful orders and they had no answer, the media was there to cover for him. And they went back to September 2, a drone strike on a drug trafficking boat where there were reportedly two survivors. After the initial strike and another strike was ordered, the left has been claiming war crimes to try to get Pete Hegseth to no longer be the secretary of war. Senator Tom Cotton said he did not see anything disturbing about the video. He said the operation was witnessed by hundreds of uniformed and civilian personnel, including dozens of lawyers at the Pentagon, Fort Bragg and other outposts. Congressman Himes, Democrat from Connecticut, said, I reviewed the video and it's deeply, deeply troubling. President Trump met with the president of the Congo and the president of Rwanda, where They signed a historic peace agreement called the Washington Accords to bring an end to a decades long conflict between these two countries. The President said, in this holy season, we prepare to celebrate the birth of the Prince of Peace. We have come to the US Institute of Peace to sign a historic agreement that will end one of the longest running conflicts anywhere in the world. With far more than 10 million people killed, the average rate on a 30 year mortgage fell this week. Average is now 6.19%. U. S jobless claims fell to 191, 000. That's the lowest since November of 2022. People are spending a lot of money. A record 203 million shoppers turned out from Thanksgiving to Cyber Monday. That's up from 197 million shoppers last year and breaks the all time record from 2023. I'm Mike Slater. From the podcast Politics by faith, Bill O'Reilly has your message of the day next.
