Capitol Police Investigate Another Suspicious Package; Senate Staff Warned of Mail Threats (Maxine)
Roll Call ^ | October 24, 2018 | Katherine Tully-McManus

Posted on 10/24/2018 11:56:24 AM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

A Capitol Police explosive ordnance team was dispatched to a House of Representatives mail processing facility in Capitol Heights, Maryland, following a string of suspected explosive devices sent to prominent Democrats.

The package in question was addressed to California Democratic Rep. Maxine Waters.

Since the anthrax attacks in 2001, mail for Congress has been sent to offsite facilities for screening. House and Senate mail is processed separately in two Maryland facilities. This means that mail can take anywhere from 10 to 14 days to reach its destination.

“Under no circumstances should anyone ever bring unopened mail or packages from outside the Senate into their offices,” said a communication to Senate staff from the Sergeant-at-Arms Wednesday afternoon.

“It is a violation of policy — and may be extremely dangerous — for any person to introduce any sealed mail item to the Senate office buildings or the Capitol, or to accept mail from anyone other than a uniformed Senate Post Office employee or a Government courier bearing an official Government ID,” said the email to Senate staff.

Earlier Wednesday, suspicious packages were sent to the homes of the Clintons and Obamas and CNN’s New York headquarters. Democratic donor George Soros had a similar package sent to him this week. The packages sent to former President Barack Obama and the Clintons were intercepted by the Secret Service during routine mail screening procedures. The packages were identified to be potential explosive devices, according to a Secret Service statement.

New York officials described the devices sent to CNN as “pipe bomb” devices.

Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, former chairwoman for the Democratic National Committee, was sent a package that prompted evacuation and a police investigation in Sunrise, Florida.

The package sent to Wasserman Schultz was addressed to former Attorney General Eric Holder, but was not delivered due to a problem with the address. Wasserman Schultz’s office was listed as the return address. The package was not delivered to Holder, but reached Wasserman Schultz’s office as a “return to sender.”

Wasserman Schultz didn’t attend a fundraiser for congressional candidate Donna Shalala in Coral Gables with Clinton as planned Wednesday.

At the fundraiser, Clinton said, “Many of you and others across our country have asked about me and my family and I’m very grateful for that. We are fine thanks to the men and women of the Secret Service who intercepted the package addressed to us long before it made its way to our home.”

New York Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo said his office in Manhattan was among those that received an explosive device in the mail Wednesday. A New York City police spokesperson said the suspicious package sent to Cuomo's office was not a bomb and was unrelated to other devices found Wednesday.

Maxine probably called somebody up saying “Where is MY fake bomb? The GOP is coming after me, and my mailbox is still cold and empty! What about me?”

Deep state rolls out staged “bomb” attack on CNN headquarters, just as Mike Adams and Alex Jones…predicted!

Exactly as publicly predicted by myself and Alex Jones, the anti-American globalists are now running pipe bombs false flags against CNN. This is not merely similar to what we publicly predicted would take place before the mid-term elections; it is exactly what we publicly predicted would take place. We even named CNN as the most likely target to be selected by the globalist operatives running the operation.

“CNN’s New York Headquarters Evacuated After Suspicious Package Found,” reports Mediaite.com. Similar “pipe bombs” were also reportedly mailed to Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton and George Soros. “The CNN bureau at Columbus Circle in new York City was evacuated Wednesday morning after mailroom workers found a suspicious device,” reports The Gateway Pundit. “The bomb scare comes on the heels of suspected IEDs mailed to the home former President Obama in Washington, D.C. and the New York state homes of former President Clinton Clinton and major Democratic Party donor George Soros this morning.”

Low IQ Maxine hoist on her own petard.

The woman who has incited mob violence against Republicans is now on the receiving end of it.

When you start something, its impossible to keep it contained. Its wrong to be sure but it doesn’t justify Waters own behavior.

The package supposedly sent to CNN was not postmarked, and probably did not have enough postage. Were these even mailed? How did they arrive all at the same time, in NY, DC & FL?

Nothing like the mob having to confront the fruits of their own rage and hate.

What comes around goes around. They can’t have it both ways.

They won’t trace it back to him, but John Brennan is the one who dreamed this up.

John Brennan also got one.

All their anti-Trump hatred has backfired on them.

Be careful what you wish for; you might get it.

Would a picture of the ACME Mail Order Catalog be more appropriate? :-)
