More bomb packages were sent to President Trump critic Robert De Niro’s restaurant and former VP Joe Biden last night. This brings the total of bomb packages to nine. None of the bombs mailed to top Democrats detonated. Variety reported....

A false flag is a covert operation designed to deceive; the deception creates the appearance of a particular party, group, or nation being responsible for some activity, disguising the actual source of responsibility. The term "false flag" originally referred to pirate ships that flew flags of countries as a disguise to prevent their victims from fleeing or preparing for battle. Sometimes the flag would remain and the blame for the attack be laid incorrectly on another country. The term today extends beyond naval encounters to include countries that organize attacks on themselves and make the attacks appear to be by...

(SOME READERS MAY FIND THIS DISTRUBING) We all know that the Republican Party propaganda machine demonizes the Clinton's, Barack Obama, George Soros etc. and milks resentment of them to drive up voter turnout. What better way to neutralize that than to stage this kind of activity two weeks before an election to neutralize the GOP game plan. My own personal experience with hatred and resentment of 'enemies', real or imagined, reminds we of why I say this. My own experience with political activism reminds me of this and my experience applies to any kind of political activist, "Right" or "Left"....

Alexander Soros has spoken out against the attempted bomb attacks launched at his father and other powerful Democrats, blaming both Donald Trump and David Duke. An explosive device was sent to billionaire Democrat donor George Soros' home in the wealthy New York suburb of Westchester on Monday afternoon. Two days later, pipe bombs were also sent to a number of high-profile political targets, including Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, and CNN. George Soros' son called the incidents a 'threat to the future of American democracy' as he hit out at the president in a New York Times op-ed titled 'The Hate...

Oct. 24, 2018 - 4:04 - James Fitzgerald, a retired FBI profiler and forensic linguist who helped catch the Unabomber in 1996, weighs in on how authorities will try to catch whoever sent explosive devices to prominent politicians.

The pipe bomb intercepted at the New York City headquarters of CNN overnight was plastered with a parody of the black ISIS flag, including a reference to comedian Larry The Cable Guy, raising further questions about the person or group who sent the explosive device. READ MORE Pipe Bombs Sent To Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama And CNN Under Investigation MSNBC anchor Chris Hayes noted that an image of the bomb, which was shared by CNN itself, showed a black patch on the cylindrical device. At first glance, it appeared to be a copy of the radical Islamist group’s logo, but...

We knew nearly nothing, except that the Secret Service had intercepted “potential explosive devices” targeting the Clintons and Obamas, while investigators also looked into a suspicious package at CNN’s New York offices. Days earlier, authorities found an explosive device in the mailbox of liberal philanthropist George Soros. We did not know who sent them, or why, or what exactly the potential devices were. But John Cardillo, a right-wing media personality, was already tweeting out his suspicions. “Investigators need to take a serious look at far left groups like #Antifa when investigating the bombs sent to Soros, Obama, and the Clintons,”...

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...

Alexander Soros, the son of billionaire financier George Soros and deputy chair of the Open Society Foundations, penned an op-ed Wednesday accusing President Trump of bringing in a “new normal of political demonization” that contributed to the wave of bomb threats against his father and other prominent Democrats this week.

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.

As speculation grows over who is behind the pipe-bomb packages sent to CNN and several high-profile Democrats, #MAGABomber is trending on Twitter. MAGA, of course, is an abbreviation of Make America Great Again, President Donald Trump’s famous slogan coined during the 2016 presidential campaign, now a hashtag and meme regularly pushed by his supporters to celebrate his policy decisions. The targets of Wednesday’s domestic terror campaign are prominent critics and political rivals of Trump. His Democratic presidential election rival Hillary Clinton, former President Barack Obama and former CIA director John Brennan. CNN, a news network often the target of the...

Authorities are responding to suspicious packages sent to several Democratic figures, several of which contain crude but functional low-ordnance explosive devices. Aside from party, these politicians share another important distinction: they have been publicly criticized by President Trump. The motive behind the attempted attack remains a mystery. However, the president has often targeted the intended recipients of the packages in rally speeches and on Twitter. Mr. Trump has been especially critical of Waters in recent months, after Waters suggested at a June rally that protesters harass Trump cabinet members. In a retaliatory tweet, Mr. Trump called her "an extraordinarily low...

U.S. Democratic leaders in Congress said on Wednesday that President Donald Trump’s call for unity after suspicious packages were sent to leading Democratic figures “ring hollow” because of his past statements that condone acts of violence. “Time and time again, the president has condoned physical violence and divided Americans with his words and his actions,” Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer and House of Representatives top Democrat Nancy Pelosi said in a statement. They cited the Republican president’s “support for the congressman who body-slammed a reporter, the neo-Nazis who killed a young woman in Charlottesville, his supporters at rallies who get...

A Capitol Police explosive ordnance team was dispatched to a House of Representatives mail processing facility in Capitol Heights, Maryland, following a string of suspected explosive devices sent to prominent Democrats. The package in question was addressed to California Democratic Rep. Maxine Waters. Since the anthrax attacks in 2001, mail for Congress has been sent to offsite facilities for screening. House and Senate mail is processed separately in two Maryland facilities. This means that mail can take anywhere from 10 to 14 days to reach its destination. “Under no circumstances should anyone ever bring unopened mail or packages from outside...

This is the supposed 'bomb'.Observations: TWO wires? That's Road Runner Show material. Two wires doubles the chance of a screwup. A skilled operator would put ONE wire in ONE end, that wire consisting of two leads. And put each wire on OPPOSITE ENDS? What, are you planning to run current through the entire payload? How about you simply run the one wire to a detonator device? And look at the timer. It's HUGE. You could definitely get the same job done with a much smaller, much more efficient device... and even pack it into the pipe. This setup screams "Look...

A suspicious package addressed to Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Ca.) was intercepted by at a mail facility in Maryland by Capitol Hill police on Wednesday, a Democratic aide tells The Hill. ABC News first reported the interception and subsequent investigation of the package. This incident follows the delivery of suspicious packages to the homes of Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, as well as to the CNN offices. D.C. Capitol Police did not immediately respond to The Hill's request for confirmation on this issues. Capitol Hill police bomb technicians were deployed to the Congressional mail facility, per ABC.

Watching their press conference is disgusting. They keep talking about "violent rhetoric from our leaders", but they are not talking about Hillary or Holder or Waters, they are talking about Trump, even though the Dems mentioned openly call for violence and he does not. Cuomo just jumped on the victim bandwagon saying he also got a device. He probably built that one himself. And Cuomo is historically ignorant, saying that the "first terrorist attack in NYC occurred 25 years ago." Somebody should educate him about the bombing in 1920 in the Financial District of Manhattan that killed dozens of people....

explosive devices" sent to Hillary Clinton, former President Obama, billionaire philanthropist George Soros and CNN at Manhattan's Time Warner Center are thought to be linked, law enforcement officials say. Two of the devices -- one addressed to Clinton's Chappaqua home, one to Obama in Washington, D.C. -- were intercepted by the U.S. Secret Service. Both were discovered at off-site locations and neither the former secretary of state nor former president were ever at risk, officials said. Another suspicious package -- one addressed to ex-CIA chief John Brennan, now an MSNBC contributor -- that appeared similar to the other three forced...
