Multiple outlets are reporting that federal sources and bomb technicians are exploring the possibility that explosive devices sent to prominent Democrats were fakes.
While various media entities scoffed at the notion that such an elaborate mail bombing campaign could have been a hoax, other experts are indeed exploring the possibility.
New York Magazine called the skepticism “counter-intuitive” conspiracies and “mad ravings.”
If so, those ‘mad ravings’ have since extended to an Emmy winning news correspondent and such revered mainstream outlets as the New York Times.

The leaders in our government are leftists and are the enemy of a free people.

#1 Who mails a time bomb?
#2 The clocks have no alarm feature.
#3 The wires are not connected to anything.
#4 There is no initiator (blasting cap)
#5 There is no battery to set off an initiator.
Do the math. The bombs were a hoax. They may have been real fireworks, but they were nor “rigged”to explode.
