Just the other day the news broke of some type of bomb was sent to George Soros’ home in Westchester, New York. It was a miracle that no one was killed as an employee of his actually opened the package. Now we find out that explosive devices were sent to former President Obama and Hillary Clinton.
Two “potential explosive devices” addressed to Hillary Clinton and former President Barack Obama have been intercepted by the U.S. Secret Service, and senior law enforcement officials tell News 4 they are thought to be similar to the bomb planted in billionaire philanthropist George Soros’s mailbox in New York earlier this week.
This isn’t good. This isn’t good at all.

As CNN was reporting on this, fire alarms went off.
Next thing we know, CNN in New York is being evacuated.

Three explosives, at least two were defined as pipe bombs, sent to the Clintons, Obama, and CNN.
The preliminary belief is that all three devices are of similar pipe-bomb-style construction.
The New York City Police bomb squad was responding to the suspicious package inside the mail room of the Time Warner Center in Manhattan’s Columbus Circle.
Police sources told ABC News that the suspicious package appears to be a metal pipe with wires. Floors above and below the mail room are being evacuated.
All of this on the heels of the pipe bomb sent to Soros, the letters sent to Senator Susan Collins that could’ve been ricin-laced but thankfully weren’t, a boulder thrown through the window of Rep. Kevin McCarthy’s (R-CA) office in Bakersfield, and more.
Some idiot keyboard warriors are trying to call these latest bombs a prank. No, no, and HELL NO. This cannot be described as a prank. A prank doesn’t sow fear and a prank doesn’t injure or kill.
But 'mobs' … https://t.co/rGyeT5yQvF

Kirsten, don’t “but mobs” me! Whataboutism has exactly ZERO place here.
We then find out that an explosive device was also mailed to Debbie Wasserman Schultz’s office in Florida.
The building that houses Representative Debbie Wasserman Schultz’s office in Sunrise was evacuated after a suspicious package arrived in the mail, according to Sunrise police.
And…
BREAKING: Three senior law enforcement officials tell NBC the return address name on the suspicious packages found at Clinton, Obama, and Soros’ addresses belongs to DNC official Debbie Wasserman Schultz.

Whomever did this should be soundly condemned by EVERYONE. The White House issued a forceful statement.
“We condemn the attempted violent attacks recently made against President Obama, President Clinton, Secretary Clinton, and other public figures. These terrorizing acts are despicable, and anyone responsible will be held accountable to the fullest extent of the law. The United States Secret Service and other law enforcement agencies are investigating and will take all appropriate actions to protect anyone threatened by these cowards,” the White House said in a statement.
Donald Trump Jr.
As someone whose family has directly been the victim of these mail threats I condemn whoever did this regardless of party or ideology. This crap has to stop and I hope they end up in jail for a long time. https://t.co/pajRgM4hYm

Vice President Pence:
We condemn the attempted attacks against fmr Pres Obama, the Clintons, @CNN & others. These cowardly actions are despicable & have no place in this Country. Grateful for swift response of @SecretService, @FBI & local law enforcement. Those responsible will be brought to justice.

Look, I’m the first to tell you that I absolutely do not like the politics espoused by Obama and the Clintons. I think that George Soros has damaged our country and Debbie Wasserman Shultz is definitely hiding something regarding the entire Imran Awan mess.

However, dislike of a person’s politics must never be an excuse for this kind of terrorism. And yes folks, that is what this is. Terrorism. It should and must be condemned by all. Furthermore the ONLY ones to blame for this are those who actually MADE the bombs and put them in the mail.
It is an absolute miracle that no one has been hurt thus far. But if everyone doesn’t wake up and step up to condemn this then I fear that there will be more attacks such as the ones on Congressman Steve Scalise and Senator Rand Paul.
This needs to stop, folks. This needs to stop NOW.

This seems too convenient and not a single one of them actually explodes? It seems like its optics to try to make conservatives out to be crazy killers. I will not be surprised if this turns out to be a liberal stunt.

Fake bombs to go with fake news.
Reserving judgement. There are nutcases out there on the “right” side of politics (the other side of the Left, actually, when you compare the real ideologies, but I’m sure the nutcases think they are on the “Right” just as much as the Left does).
The timing and some of the circumstances are highly suspicious, though. As is one of the latest statements by one of the Left’s proxies (Reines, a Clintonista, emphasis added). “All Trump’s fault, even if the perpetrator is the most liberal person in the country.” There is a man that should be talked to by LEO, in my opinion.
Ah, HTML no workie on this site. Please imagine “even if the perpetrator is the most liberal person in the country” in italics, above there.
Obviously, no one outside the investigators, knows the details of the objects construction. But, they seem to be fake and never designed to explode. The left is replete with false accusations of all sorts of hate crimes. It ain’t much of a stretch to see this is the same.
An “October Surprise”, anyone.
Certain items work: a, em, strong, blockquote, strike at the least.
From what we’re hearing so far based upon “clues” investigators have disclosed, the construction and packaging (amateurish to the max — lots of tape, etc) these little NOTlove presents appear to have been designed for maximum ease of discovery and “boo!” factor and minimum actual “boom” factor — 0 for 6 to be exact — with sketchy wiring. All just a few days before midterms. Hmm.
Still, the whole thing IS terrorist by any definition, boom or no boom, and whoever is behind it deserves the total maximum weight of the legal system to come crashing down with DEFCON 1 force upon them.
Definite “false flag” operation by Democrat operative.Since Violence and Socialism playing bad for Demofascists they need to change “Narrative”
Next “false flag” operation will take out some “low level” Democrat or Democrat Offices or something, with a fire bomb.
Democrats will resort to any tactic to win elections, we all know that.
I’ve seen CNN’s pictures of the ‘bomb’. It’s a fake. There’s no detonation trigger in the world that uses big 8 guage wires stuffed into opposite ends of the blasting media, wired to a shitty kitchen timer, with no power source for the initiator. Even illiterate goat herds in afganistan making IEds out of stolen 155 shells use better gear than that.
Terrorism? Sure, one way or the other.
Considering lack of details, and my lack of personal examination of the evidence,
until “the experts” make an “official finding”, I’ll leave my sentiments at
“Whoever tried to pull this off is despicable” …
because, history and all that.
Best comment here!
Yes. Life sentence, with no parole. Permanent solitary. An hour of sunlight – on alternate leap days. The only entertainment either Das Kapital or the The Road to Serfdom (depending on the ideological motivation of the perpetrator).
If anyone was really serious about HRC they would have sent a bucket of water.
Yup, total false flag. Add this to the endless list of fake hate crimes, like the ones at campuses and black churches, all done by whacko libs. The Left lives for projection. And I guess they didn’t listen to any right-wingers doing any “bombsplaining” about how actual bombs work. Wile E. Coyote built better bombs from Acme. It’s pathetic.
I wasn’t allowed to grab a coat or any of my belongings
But someone had the time to take a pic of the item. Hmmmm….
A prank doesn’t sow fear and a prank doesn’t injure or kill.
It certainly can. But a better word than “prank” is “hoax”.
dislike of a person’s politics must never be an excuse for this kind of terrorism
While I don’t agree with sending bombs, I’ll ask: what if it goes beyond “dislike” and to the level of “existential threat to freedom”?
It is an absolute miracle that no one has been hurt thus far.
Not if it was intended as a hoax. (And evidence is accumulating that it was NOT a real threat, though we haven’t established if that is because of incompetence or intent.)
They’ve caught a suspect. And hooooo boy……
Guy’s a nutter Trumper. He’s also a chemtrail believer. He’s sort of an angry version of FloridaMan.
