A kids’ game that asked children to defuse a plastic, pretend bomb had parents exploding with anger — and now two major retailers are pulling the controversial toy. The game, called “Cut the Wire,” asks players to defuse a fake bomb before the timer runs out. Should a player cut the wrong wire with the toy wire cutter included in the game, the bomb sounds an alarm and lights up and vibrates to recreate an explosion simulation. The toy bomb is shaped like sticks of dynamite and the packaging is covered in flames to signify an explosion that has already...

MENLO PARK, Calif. (KGO) -- Police in Menlo Park are responding to a bomb threat that has forced the evacuation of at least one building on the Facebook campus this evening. Police are asking people to avoid the 200 block of Jefferson Drive while they investigate the threat. A tip was received from Crime Stopper units in New York City regarding the threat. The units received an anonymous phone call regarding the threat, but did not have details on the call. No further details were immediately available.

Three American service members were killed in a roadside bomb attack in Afghanistan on Tuesday, marking the deadliest day for U.S. forces in the embattled country this year. Three American troops were killed and three others were wounded in the attack in the notorious Taliban hotbed – Ghazini city – after their armored vehicle drove over a massive bomb buried under the road. An American contractor was also wounded in the attack. Including Tuesday’s attack, 12 Americans have been killed in combat in Afghanistan this year. Five Americans have been killed this month alone.

Evacuations were underway in Pasadena as authorities investigated a suspicious vehicle and package reported in a commercial area of the city on Monday.

A pipe bomb loaded with explosive black powder was hand-delivered to the suburban New York City home of billionaire financier George Soros by a would-be attacker, prompting the FBI to launch an investigation into who would want to harm the philanthropist and political activist, a law enforcement source told ABC News on Tuesday. The FBI photographed the device and then detonated it near Soros' home in Katonah, New York, and were analyzing fragments to determine why the bomb did not go off, the source said. The device was not delivered via U.S. Postal Service, a source familiar with the investigation...

Cesar Altieri Randazzo or as the media is naming him Cesar Sayoc has been arrested in the “pipe bomb” mail scare that has been going on over the last 48 hours. Here is a mugshot of Cesar Altieri Randazzo aka Cesar Sayoc from a few years ago. This idiot has multiple arrests on his record, including shoplifting at Walmart in Southern Florida. https://www.pacificpundit.com/2018/10/26/cesar-altieri-randazzo-aka-cesar-sayoc-arrested-plus-mug-shot/

Note by Yo-Yo: This article was written before the bomber was arrested. However, it is still a very insightful article. The explosive devices mailed to Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, Joe Biden, Robert De Niro, Cory Booker, James Clapper and other public figures, as well as CNN, are indisputably a false-flag attack. It’s indisputable because the packages are labeled as coming from Debbie Wasserman Schultz, a Democratic congresswoman from Florida and former DNC chairwoman. She can safely be ruled out as a suspect. Beyond that, little can responsibly be said about the would-be bomber’s identity or motives. But that hasn’t stopped...

Kudos (from the Ancient Greek): is acclaim or praise for exceptional achievement. Known to law enforcement..... Easy profile to build on.... Easy to run/handle...... ....Rabid Trump Supporter....big white panel truck outside plastered with Trump 'propaganda'.... ...now we can watch film 24/7 for the next 10 days. NICE OP Deep State. Well done ...but your day is still coming.

#MeToo Redux (pronounced re-doo) So I got to thinking about all these purported mail bimbs and the left's attempt to pin it on right-wingnuts as opposed to it being a pathetic false-flag attempt to divert attention from the sinking blue wave. When I heard that De Niro's restaurant received the latest one, it dawned on me that many on the left are probably wondering, "hey, why didn't I get one!!! I'm just as progressive as Hillary or De Niro." Yep, the old hey, what about me? I'm just as deserving. So I can just imagine a second wave of self-mailed...

How may times have you seen me write this? Liberals have zero long term memory.As I expected, the media is presenting news of these so-called "bombs" in an entirely isolated fashion. It's as though history began the day these devices appeared- other than Trump's words, that is. The media recalls nothing else. Nothing had been established as fact when democrats seized on the issue and blamed Trump. Without knowing any facts, Democrats immediately started to exploit the attempted attacks for political gain in the upcoming midterms. The ladies on “The View” lamented that Fox News hadn’t gotten a bomb and...

Now the Democrats genuinely get to say “both sides” with suspicious packages containing explosives sent to the Clintons, Eric Holder, George Soros and others conveniently two weeks before a possibly history-changing midterm election. The blame is already being put on those who Hillary called “deplorables” and a package sent to CNN will be blamed on President Trump for those “CNN sucks” chants at Trump rallies. Somehow it is all too convenient, this “October surprise”. None of the named targets were really in danger, although others could have been hurt touching, picking up, or opening a package. The same could not...

The pipe bomb and white powder that forced an evacuation at CNN headquarters in New York City Wednesday morning were harmless, a law enforcement source told the Associated Press. The purported explosive device was similar in construction to those sent Wednesday to former President Barack Obama, former attorney general Eric Holder, Hillary Clinton, Representative Debbie Wasserman-Schultz (D., Fla.), and Representative Maxine Waters of California. A package containing white powder was delivered later in the day. The NYPD said the explosive devices were live during a Wednesday afternoon press conference but subsequent reporting suggests they were not functional. All of the...

7:50 p.m. A law enforcement official says tests have determined that a powder found inside an envelope delivered to CNN along with a pipe bomb was harmless. The official wasn’t authorized to discuss the investigation publicly and spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity.

HERE'S MY THEORY: This "bomb scare" is a hoax perpetrated by Democrat operatives to stop Trump from calling them a mob and blunt his rallies. If they did, in fact, contain explosive material, they were wired so as to be impossible to detonate. Pure #Soros Astro-turf operation.

The FBI said Wednesday that it has sent five packages believed to contain explosive devices to the bureau’s laboratory in Quantico, Va., for further analysis. In a rare public statement, the FBI described the five suspicious packages sent to CNN, former President Obama, Hillary Clinton and other Democrats as “similar in appearance” and containing “potentially destructive devices.” President Trump announced earlier Wednesday that he had ordered a “major federal investigation” into the attempted attacks, condemning “political violence” and describing the bomb threats as “abhorrent.” “The full weight of our government is being deployed to conduct this investigation and bring those...

A suspicious package addressed to the White House was intercepted on Wednesday, according to CNN. Earlier in the day, the Secret Service said that "potential explosive devices" were addressed to former President Barack Obama and ex-presidential candidate Hillary Clinton. The Time Warner building in New York City on Wednesday was evacuated following a report of suspicious package. The White House and the Secret Service did not immediately respond to requests for comment from CNBC regarding the package addressed to the White House.

CNN released an image of the device delivered to the Time Warner Center today in New York that forced the building to evacuate. Snip Some online noted that if you look carefully at the image, there appears to be an ISIS flag: The media is largely consolidating around the theory that these packages were sent by a Trump voter who is lashing out at perceived enemies of the president. An ISIS flag on one of the bomb’s detonators would of course complicate that theory.

This phony bomb scare FALSE FLAG is aimed at DIVERTING the media's attention AWAY FROM THE INVASION coming from Mexico and also to GENERATE SYMPATHY FOR THE DEMONRATS AHEAD OF THE MIDTERM ELECTION! This PHONY BOMB scare seeks to paint conservatives as VIOLENT.. Watch CNN and the other Deep State puppets pound this story to DEATH. WHAT ABOUT THE INVASION FROM MEXICO? WILL THAT LOSING STORY FOR THE DEMONRAT PARTY NOW DISAPPEAR? Will the sender of these alleged bombs turn out to be a George Soros operative or DNC HACK? How can the media say the bomb maker "knew what...

Just reported here in San Diego that a suspicious package has been discovered at the local newspaper the Union Tribune. The building has now been evacuated. I mean come on… the Union Tribune? Debbie Wasserman Schultz? Why not just paint a false flag on your four head and go running through the street screaming the GOP is bad the GOP is bad the GOP is bad .... Hillary Clinton conveniently being at a microphone just to give her opinion… This is better choreographed than a concert at Carnegie Hall What a JOKE!!!
