Threatening letter sent to Donald Trump's son, Eric
CBS News ^ | March 18, 2016

NEW YORK -- The Secret Service, FBI and New York Police Department are investigating what sources tell CBS News is a threatening piece of mail sent to Donald Trump's son, Eric Trump.

The mail, sent to Eric Trump at his posh Manhattan residence at 100 Central Park South, also known as Trump Parc East, was opened by his wife Thursday.

A source close to the investigation said the letter had a Massachusetts postmark and warned that if Donald Trump doesn't withdraw from the race for the Republican presidential nomination -- paraphrasing -- harm will come to the kids.

Investigators in crowded lobby of 100 Central Park South in Manhattan late on March 17, 2016 after what sources say was threatening letter was received by Donald Trump's son, Eric Trump

A source familiar with the matter said the envelope contained suspicious white powder that's been sent to a lab for testing. The source a preliminary field test indicated the substance didn't appear to be hazardous.

No injuries were reported.

...people will die over the intollerance of the Left.

About 100 million last century, not counting those aborted.

As time goes by, and more loons come out of the woodwork, will anyone blame "security" becoming more physical with those loons?

Opponents will blame Trump and term it "Trump Speech" when he speaks truthfully about the ills facing the nation. They will equate it with hate speech, further riling up the unstable fringe who fear an end to their liberal political hegemony.

I see a war coming and it may not be pretty.

To each their own, I guess. One man's heaven is another man's hell.

Are we witnessing prophesy? Mind reading? Edgar Cayce?

I reckon we'll just have to wait and see.

Believe me. The left are very afraid of Trump. They would not be reacting like this if they thought Hillary would win easily. You can smell their fear and it smells like death.

Harassing Perot’s family got him to quit the race. Maybe they are trying to work the same on Trump.

Negligent editing. They probably meant to print Don Jr.'s too.

Trouble is, no one knows who the Lord will choose as prophet.

A genuine expert can always foretell a thing that is 500 years away easier than he can a thing that's only 500 seconds off.

CBS is part of the problem. They release Eric Trump’s address in this article!!

Trump should release all the addresses of all CBS reporters.

And my son is 49 and he will always be my “child”. Nitpicking changes little.

First they try to take away our First Amendment by protest now they want to take away our vote through violence. The uniparty may not be doing it but aren’t standing in opposition.

What do you think Trump would say if Cruz children had been threatened? The silence from Cruz is deafening.

Didn’t CRuz dash off, after a piece of paper almost touched him? I’ve seen the vid. He was in a small crowd, the paper flies by, and he takes off...while a lady was still talking to him.

“By the way, waiting for the media to blame Trump for his incendiary rhetoric.”

You can be sure they will!

GOP is also saying they will now back Cruz to keep Trump out. If that’s the case, Cruz will have to do their bidding and will because of his out of control ambition. Talk about ‘cutting deals’........

Hillary will CRUZIFY the Canadian.
