CNN: Experts Tell Us 'The Bombs Were Never Meant to Explode'

Posted on 10/26/2018 4:03:58 AM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

A CNN reporter says: "outside experts tell CNN that the lack of a triggering mechanism suggests the bombs were never meant to explode."

CNN then runs a clip of a former FBI agent saying that the goal was to spread fear and garner attention.

Anyone with a basic electronics background could look at those "bombs" and know they were a hoax from the get-go.

Called it at the very beginning, as did a number of other Freepers. We're not dumb here on FR.

Unfortunately there's somewhere between 45-49% of the public who BELIEVES this hoax is real and is believing the propaganda bullshit the lying liberal lamestream media is spoon feeding them. That's why this country is ultimately f**ked.

Yet the Feds continue to say the apparently incredible thing that all went through the Postal Service, while at least some have no postmarks?

The only things “exploding” are the heads of the democrats and the media.

What kind of crimes are committed if Fake Bombs are sent to a person?

I am trying to get a sense of how much prison time a person might serve if convicted of sending fake bombs.

Anyone capable of building and sending ten bombs is capable of building 20 and using ten for testing. If none of those mailed explode, that means something. If the packages have excessive postage, misspelled names, and the other amateurish signs that all scream “BOMB”, only the #FakeNews media could miss the point. Apparently, even journalists cannot continue the charade as long as one might have expected.

Given the recent losing history of power-starved Democrats, we should put nothing past them.

They will do anything for power......it now appears they have an appetite for mindless violence......

HER MASK SLIPPED Hillary gave it away.......the mailings are a Democrat plot to change the dynamics of midterm elections.

In her presser to decry the mailings Hillary alluded to a “divided nation” and the importance
of having the “right people elected” (here she gave that tight little smirk of hers as she said the words).

<><> The power-starved Dems couldn’t buy their way into power with the Clintons billions....

<><> the Kavanaugh smear backfired bigtime....

<><> the latino caravan of Democrat voters is under suspicion, and,

<><> Democrats are bereft of solid ideas.

So Dems decided to go for broke. Notice all the mailings went to people continually battered on the i-net......
Dems figured they’d make great subjects b/c of who despises them.

No credibility after the Kavanaugh bs. People saw how low they will go politically, and they haven’t hit the bottom yet. People were watching.

I’ll bet the bombs really DID come from the office of DWS.

Not as much time as sending real ones.
