Authorities on Wednesday night found a suspicious package addressed to Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) in a Los Angeles mail facility.
The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) in a statement said it is similar to the other packages mailed to high-level Democratic figures this week. The other packages contained explosives.
Authorities have so far confirmed that five of the intercepted packages contained devices described as crude pipe bombs.
The ATF's Los Angeles field division and Los Angeles Police Department are currently investigating the package in Los Angeles.
"We are working closely with our federal law enforcement partners given the number of suspicious devices discovered across the nation," the LAPD tweeted on Wednesday evening.
Police intercepted another package addressed to Waters at a congressional mail facility in Maryland earlier in the day.
Waters issued a statement following the first incident in which she praised law enforcement for intercepting the package and condemned "any and all acts of violence and terror."
“I have been informed by U.S. Capitol Police that my Washington, DC office was the target of a suspicious package that has been referred to the FBI," Waters wrote in the statement. "I am appreciative of the law enforcement entities who intercepted the package and are investigating this matter. I unequivocally condemn any and all acts of violence and terror.”
Explosives were sent to the homes of the Clintons and the Obamas, as well as CNN headquarters in New York City.
A Trump bobble head?
MadMaxi needs to come across questionable articles everywhere she goes.
Is this an unusually inept person on the right, or is this a collection of false flag gestures from the usual suspects? I have a guess on that answer, but we’ll see. With the FBI investigating, I expect the answer to come only after the election if I’m right.
WOW! That’s suspicious. Wonder if it was postmarked like the c un un one. As in NOT!
Why are none of these packages postmarked? How would it get into the mail system without being postmarked?

Someone telling her she’s not welcome anywhere, anymore? How uncivil.
This obvious false flag will backfire, like all the other shenanigans the Dems try.
James Brown’s wig?
Wait.....Mad Maxine mailed HERSELF to her office????
That IS suspicious.
how does it feel to have someone up in your face Mad Maxine
They used the Congressional inter-office courier service.
Does that include the violence she previously asked her supporters to engage in?
This is obviously the Democrats false flag and October surprise.
They know the phrase by POTUS, “jobs not mobs” have really hurt them.
So now they are pretending they are victims by attacking irrelevant Democrats. It is so obvious. It is pathetic and desperate move.
After the election we will find out this was done by the Democrats to motivate their base to vote.
Everyone should send her a
James Brown wig!!!
Of course there was. Crazy Max doesn’t want to be left out. #metoo
If it’s one guy, he’s an expert at figuring out to stagger the mailings so they arrive in NY, FL, and CA on the same day. (Have they all arrived today? Do they think the Soros “bomb” is from the same guy?)
If a lot of these aren’t postmarked, then a courier in each of that number of cities makes it the biggest organization doing bombing in the U.S. we’ve seen in decades. I say that even though they’re duds, and whether that’s by design or not.
