If it CREATES terror, it is terror.

It’s the theme of my favorite skit from the old Carol Burnett show, though used humorously. The captains are sitting in the cockpit, bored, and the flight attendant comes in, also bored. Then they get an idea. The captain grabs the intercom and announces to the passengers, “This is your captain speaking. I just want to say that there is absolutely no reason to panic. I repeat, there is no cause for alarm.”

And predictably the passengers flip out in terror as the crew laughs in the cockpit.

It’s terror. Fear = terror.

Patriots been around since 1773 and have the consitutional mission to shut down our enemies, like seditious, corrupt, b@st&rds like Comey, Strzok, Brennen, etc. Most FBI likely patriots but these traitors better fear what’s coming from the public.

His SS was also risky as it’s not 100% there are no leakers among them. The leaks can be fatal. General Mattis escaped an assassination attempt last year in Afghanistan. His travel information was undoubtedly leaked as it was unannounced but he and his team outsmarted the assassins, thank God.

Recall that in March 2017 an intruder made it on to White House grounds for 16 minutes before his arrest and was able to case and observe through WH windows. The WH Secret Service Director resigned (fired) shortly after.

As you can imagine this incident was shocking and unforgivable.

There were then many holdovers from the Obama regime and there may still be, although we pray General Kelly has removed as many as can be found.

So yes, Don Jr. was wise to drop his SS detail and go with the tried and true security team that the Trump family has known for decades. Although it is shocking if true that this kind of mail would slip through.

President Trump has kept his private security with him throughout. The SS for the President works with and through Donald Trump’s private security team. Without his long tested private security team, I would think the risk to the President would be much greater. Think of the people in DOJ and FBI who plotted and continue to plot for his removal or God Forbid might look the other way from a plot to harm him.

A deep state threat.

This is a warning shot. Unless Trump crushes these bastards they won’t miss their second shot

I figured CPUSA in addition to the elephant and Jack ass parties. Of course Green really is the SOSOS, as the CPUSA.

Green is one of the last brittle fig leaves before communism, yes. It must be said.

Dear heaven, why is the Trump family’s mail not treated with the same safeguards as Congressional mail? Set it aside for a month and test it for contaminants, and only then deliver it to the family when it’s deemed safe.

There is a relevant saying to the effect of: "If you want try and shoot the King, then you'd better not miss!" In my estimation, whoever they are, they missed badly!

So...why is she opening her own mail?

That's the first thing that crossed my mind given all the crazies out there

> ensure they were made examples of - regardless of the Presidency.

Maybe that is the deep-state game plan, to provoke him into “executive overreach.” I can guarantee that America would not look kindly on the President exacting personal revenge/justice on a perp.

But as you say, they messed with the wrong President. He will be even more driven, if that is possible.

Right! The hideous cowards who did this should be shaking in their boots right now! This is why I include the President and his family in my prayers every night!

Are they going to give him a thousand days, like theydidKennedy? Trump should triple his guard at all his homes. And do not trust the Secret Service...some are loyal to the Clinton-Obama Cartel.
