President Trump on Wednesday said that his administration would “get to the bottom of” a series of suspicious packages sent to several prominent Democrats.
“I just want to tell you that in these times, we have to unify. We have to come together and send one very clear, strong unmistakable message that acts or threats of political violence of any kind have no place in the Untied States of America,” said Trump, speaking at a White House event to address the opioid crisis.
“We are extremely angry, upset, unhappy about what we witnessed this morning and we will get to the bottom of it,” he added – calling the makeshift pipe-bombs bearing ISIS logos “egregious” and “abhorrent to everything we hold dear and sacred as Americans.”

Just before Trump’s remarks, First Lady Melania Trump called the mailings “cowardly attacks,” condemning “those who choose violence.”
“I’m grateful to Secret Service as well as fed and local law enforcement for all they do on a daily basis to keep us safe, and encourage people across the country to choose kindness over hatred,” she said.
Earlier in the day Trump tweeted that he “wholeheartedly” agreed with Vice President Mike Pence’s harsh condemnation of the mailings, one of which appears to have an ISIS flag taped to it the device.

As several people have now pointed out, the image of the device released by CNN appears to show an ISIS flag, although there's other stuff visible but less discernible next to it, and there are a whole lot of reasons not to jump to conclusions about what it might mean. pic.twitter.com/NV88kvPcUn

Explosive devices addressed to former President Obama, Bill and Hillary Clinton, and John Brennan via CNN, were intercepted by authorities earlier Wednesday. Another suspicious package addressed to Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) was discovered as well, while a similar pipe bomb was found deposited in the mailbox of billionaire activist and investor George Soros last Monday.
All that’s needed now is to trace the package back to the postal clerk who forgot to stamp the package.
So I guess we’re at a dead end.
A retired friend of mine worked for the US Postal Service for
almost 40 years.
Clerks don’t ‘forget’ to cancel stamps.
(If they weren’t cancelled, they could be removed and reused.
Big money loss and a definite ‘NoNo’ at the USPS.)
Odds are that those ‘bombs’ (undoubtedly non-functioning)
were hand-delivered by someone and NEVER entered the
mail-stream.
They would have been picked up and removed at a mail-
processing facility. They have EXTENSIVE security protocols
for ungainly packages bearing only hand-applied stamps.
Deliberately provocative kabuki theater to show how
EVIL Trump, the Republicans, and their supporters are.
Just like the ‘spontaneous’ Central American caravans.
Well now CNN is saying they were hand delivered to their mail room. As if they caught their own gaff. So, they should investigate themselves.
Probably Acosta.
This is probably a false flag, and the report represents fake news by the presstitutes at the behest of their handlers.
I can imagine Trump wants to get to the bottom of it and expose the “plotters”. This may indeed become very interesting!
Start by looking at known associates and fixers of Brennen and HiLIARy.
This sure feels like a setup of some sort. Who benefits?
The Dems. They are trying to generate sympathy, but this stunt is so painfully obvious, it will probably backfire on them. Badly. Red Sunami-wave incoming????
I love the part where they say the return address was Debbie Wasserman Schlutz.
Clinton/Soros.Obama cabal false flag.
George Soros has a mailbox. It’s right next to his tire swing, out by the tree house.
You can’t make this up.
Well clearly someone can.
Are they sure the package that arrived at the Clinton residence wasn’t a metallic phallic shaped device that gets warm and buzzes like an IED when the 4 D cells activate?
Betcha those get shipped in a plain brown wrapper. Wait.
That description sounds like the previous POTUS who had allegiance to a brotherhood far different than the Chicago ghetto hood.
Communist false flag.
You all Americans want a true answer from a Canadian who whises he has the 2nd Amendment…
Do not allow anyone over the US and the Mexican border…
Those stupid bombs won’t save the Demon Critters….
Get cash World Citizens and buy food meds and toilet paper for come Nov 11 2018 as the God Believinh profits the Globalist Elitist Corruption Will Begin…
Get rid of the Saudi’s and the Muslim bullshit….
Screw Satanic Santa ?? and bring back Christ in Christmas….
Yes I am drunk ?
Nobody ever said drunken chatter was false.
But when the truth is discovered, the entire mainstream media will continue to ignore it…..much like the truth about the non-event of Russian meddling in the past election.
The msm coverage of obvious false flag are like tiny firecrakers when trump places a moab right before the election by identifying the sjw/blm libturd that sent these fakes. And said libturd thinks the deep state will say it wasnt criminal since they were fake. I say we the public sue the culprit for a waste of taxpayer money and numerous costs to investigate etc.
