Law enforcement has no suspects.

The suspicious packages sent to numerous Democrats and to conservative radio station WMAL (I noticed this did not receive a lot of attention) continues and we still don’t know anything.
So why not jump to conclusions and spread theories? NBC’s Chuck Todd brings up the RUSSIANS!

*UPDATE 10:15AM
Law enforcement has removed a package found at a NYC post offic e addressed to former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper at CNN.
*UPDATE 8:51AM
Reports have emerged that a package meant for Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ) is in Florida. From AP:
The package was recovered at or near Opa-locka Florida, which has emerged as a focal point for investigators trying to track down the sender of the suspected mail bombs, law enforcement sources familiar with the investigation told ABC News.
It’s one of the postal centers the packages may have moved through and the Miami-Dade police bomb squad swept the facility at the request of the FBI as a precautionary measure.
*Sunday Evening*
During his MSNBC show Meet the Press Daily, Todd floated a theory that Russians have something to do with these devices sent in the mail.
He said: “I have this fear it could be some Russian operations, too, designed to do what’s happnening now. In some ways, we shouldn’t rule anything out. It is dividing us.”
MSNBC’s Chuck Todd says he “has this fear” that the bombs shipped through the mail to prominent Democrats “could be some Russian operation” to sow division in the US.

As liberal mainstream media bemoans the mainstreaming of conspiracy theories like the pipe bombs being a “false flag,” it mainstreams a different conspiracy theory – that Russia is behind the bombing attempts, as @NebojsaMalic points out pic.twitter.com/4KEfRcsQcI

I’ve read that ‘some of the bombs’ could not detonate. I have not read that some could. Anyone know if any of the ‘bombs’ have been functional?
Democrat Hopefuls who did not receive a suspicious package are suffering from: Package Envy.
I was wondering whether Senator Spartacus sent one to himself. I’m sure he’d be insulted if they left him out.
Has anyone checked Michael Avenatti’s whereabouts? Maybe he’s a bit miffed that he’s not going to be the white guy who gets to run in 2020.
The way these bombs keep dripping out, 2-3 new ones discovered each day, strike me as media manipulation. Just another reason for me to be skeptical that this is anything other than a manufactured publicity stunt by the Democrats and Media.
It certainly seems likely that they were made by Democrats…because they don’t work.
To me the whole thing STINKS as FAKE !
Just 2 quick points
1) All of the packages were addressed to people THAT NEVER OPEN their own mail
2)How many time has ANY REPORTER / civilian been close enough to TAKE PICTURES of BOMBS and WITH IN MINUTES of the incidents ?
Oh no! Someone violated U.S. Postal Service regulations against shipping “anything fragile, liquid, perishable, or potentially hazardous, including lithium batteries and perfume?”
I notice in that picture of one of the bombs, there’s a container of Clorox disinfecting wipes also in the picture.
Were they so worried about germs, that they had to wipe the bomb before they handled it? 😀
They had to destroy their dna before shipment.
Is there someone in Chuck Todd’s life who could get a Baker Act going on him or something….he has clearly lost touch with reality…fallen into the rabbit hole of his own making
Do the customer counters at post offices have video surveillance?
I think the Russians have silenced Robert Mueller, too. Is there nothing they can’t do??
With all of Russia’s magical powers you’d think they might harness it to make their GDP higher than $8,700 per capita considering they are the world’s largest country by land mass….for comparison Texas is $58,000
Income equality at work.
BTW, Parkland High School is like 35 miles away from the post office.
Sender of Acme bomb company packages found.
Florida Man!
Yeah I know even fake bombs are no joke, but this is funny.
“Law enforcement has no suspects.”
This is a big, red flag, because
1) at least the package to CNN did not go through the mail. The stamps weren’t cancelled, too little postage, etc.
2) all courier packages have to be received, with signature of the carrier, and other information.
3) there are cameras at the hand-off points.
Now that the FL cops have a white 56 y.o. suspect with priors in terror threats, we can conclude two things:
1. It wasn’t me.
2. The Eskimo Liberation Front had nothing to do with it.
Whew!!!
The guy was arrested in Plantation, Fl, 22nd Congressional District https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Florida%27s_22nd_congressional_district which elected Democrats for at least 20 years. Strong chance that this guy is not a DJT fan.
Obviously I guessed wrong. Looks like it’s a wacko dirtbag with a record. Good thing they caught him.
He is an incompetent bomber. Using packages that look identical and therefore easy to detect. Along with being difficult to blow up. I expect that it’s a false flag operation.
Also, notice how the media is implying that Trump is responsible as the say the victims are all critics of Trump.
Did this guy take lessons from “Clock Boy”?
