Bomb Disposal Officer: Today’s Pipe Bombs – Appear to be “Hoax Devices”...
Gateway Pundit ^ | 10/24/18 | Jim Hoft

Posted on 10/24/2018 5:02:55 PM PDT by markomalley

Several bombs were sent out to Democrat leaders Wednesday – none of which detonated.

The Secret Service announced that suspicious packages were sent to Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton.

George Soros, NY Governor Cuomo, former AG Eric Holder, Rep. Maxine Waters were also sent mail bombs.

The return address name on the suspicious packages sent to Clinton, Obama, Holder and Maxine Waters belonged to Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz.

One of the bombs appeared to have the ISIS flag taped on it.

Former Bomb disposal officer Tom Sauer posted a thread on Twitter today discussing the incidents.

1.) Proper pipe bombs don’t have wires connected to both ends. That’s dumb.

2.) You can find timers / remote control receivers WAY smaller than whatever that white box is. A proper timer would best be stored inside the pipe, making it fully encapsulated. That thing is just silly looking.

3.) Bottom Line: Whoever made that wanted it to be painfully obvious to anyone and everyone that it’s a “bomb.”

This is nearly the same as a bundle of road flares wrapped together with an old-timey alarm clock ticking away.

4.) Hoax Devices” are FAR more common than real ones. In which case, we should ask ourselves what the motives of the “bomber” are and “who benefits?”

Go ahead. Think deeply and critically.

More from Tom…

Why would any actual bomber put the explosive on the outside of the bomb. After all, a bomb is supposed to explode sending particles all over. Won't happen if the explosive is on the outside.

Did a group from the fifth-column leftist media send the hoax devices in order to spin their negative memes against the GOP?

Earlier today CNN themselves sell sent out a tweet that CNN had received the package containing the pipe bomb at their offices, yet now we are hearing that all of the packages were intercepted at the postal processing f center because they couldn't lie anymore about the stamps not being postmarked. Which one is it? False flag.

Hoax. Yeah, suspected that with Soro’s yesterday. None blew up. Everyone knows these big honchos don’t pick up their own mail and has it scanned. All the more reason to believe it’s another of the demonrat’s idiotic plans against Trump that backfired.

Do you think Joe Biden is mad that he didn't get one? He's supposed to be the 2020 front-runner, right?

I found the alarm clock on ebay:

https://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Car-Dashboard-Windshield-Clocks-Electronic-LCD-Display-Digital-Vehicle-Clock-/112342227833?_trksid=p2349526.m4383.l4275.c10#viTabs_0

It has no alarm function, operates from a coin cell. These bombs are props.

I think Debbie WS actually sent them and stupidly put her real return address without thinking.

You never heard his "he never got a dinner" routine? How come all these Democrats are getting mail bombs, but not Slo Joe?
