During a Sunday morning interview with CNN’s Jake Tapper, Sen. Marco Rubio stated that he expects the FBI investigation into Omar Meteen will soon show his attack on the Pulse Nightclub in Orlando was indeed radical Islamic terrorism.

“You know in the days to come here, as the authorities try to piece this together, it is possible that someone watching this broadcast might have information that will lead us to know more about this animal who did this,” he told Tapper.

Rubio then explained he didn’t want to say too much “because [he doesn’t] want to undermine their investigation.”

“Let me just suffice it to say that over the next couple days, they’re going to be looking to see where this individual was inspired to carry out this horrifying act of terrorism,” he concluded. “I think we’re going to be talking about a very different kind of case soon, is my sense.”
