    All the news today is about suspicious packages with pipe bombs and powder being sent to senior Dems like Clinton and Obama.

    But the pic CNN posted of the so called bombhas brought up many questions.
    Here is an analysis by an self proclaimed bomb expert

    1. Proper pipe bombs don't have wires connected to both ends. That's dumb
    You can find timers / remote control receivers WAY smaller than whatever that white box is. A proper timer would best be stored inside the pipe, making it fully encapsulated. That thing is just silly looking

    1. 4. "Hoax Devices" are FAR more common than real ones. In which case, we should ask ourselves what the motives of the "bomber" are and "who benefits?" Go ahead. Think deeply and critically."


    2. 3. Bottom Line: Whoever made that wanted it to be painfully obvious to anyone and everyone that it's a "bomb." This is nearly the same as a bundle of road flares wrapped together with an old-timey alarm clock ticking away.
    The stamps were not cancelled. The spelling is wrong. Predictably a Hillary aide was trotted onto MSNBC to cast blame on Trump.

    More likely a deranged inept dude , Wil E Coyote or maybe Clock boy

    "As former LEO - We would NEVER release images or ANY information about an alleged explosive device(s), details about how they arrived or anything like that...this would be a full black out, wide open investigation. This is propaganda folks."

    I'm very suspicious of these incidents. They just feel a little like the alleged "Islamophobic" hate crimes that happened after the election.

    The stamps haven't even been marked by the post office. On top of that you're telling me that a heavy package like that would cost only 6 stamps? :p

    Yes, definite collusion from the Dems.

    This would seem outrageously far-fetched if not for the track record and playbook of the dems the last 2+ years.

    I have no idea what politics this idiot sending the fake bombs follows if any at all but this is thought provoking

    I'm sure the other headline read, "Schumer, Pelosi, Waters, Booker, et al have no plans to...".

    Right?

    This whole plot is lamer than the fake bombs themselves. They didn't even bother to get the correct addresses on most of the packages. And really, even if they managed to get a real bomb to a correct address, what's the chances that an Obama, Clinton, or Soros is going to open the package? None! They're all out galavanting around the world trying to influence the election. At best the bomber could expect to kill/maim some poor little personal assistant.

    I'll bet it turns out to be an antifa plot aim at gathering sympathy for the Dems.

    What are the odds that Clock Boy was involved in this?

    Has anyone addressed why the stamps clearly have not been through the USPS? These couldn't have been mailed, at least not the envelope I saw. So did the post office return them? Or did someone hand-deliver them to the mail rooms or the locations in question?

    Mr. Deez Beer Prophet

    And if they weren't mailed, then how the hell did they get there? Is somebody walking around sticking packages in people's mailboxes? Is it coordinated?

    I heard on TV a courier took them. I think I heard that. Maybe that was one of the main leads at least.

    They failed by design, or so it seems

    Perhaps the bombmaker will argue a 1st Amendment defense. His/her/its failed-by-design bombs were a form of political speech

    So these "bombs" appear to have been props. Scary no doubt. But still harmless beyond the emotional trauma inflicted. Who would do this and why?

    One possibility, given the context of the midterms, is that it is a misdirection intended to have the media quickly turn it all on Trump, which of course happened. Also worth consideration is what this event has done to the pre-vote narratives. It turned it away from the caravan, away from the mobs and away from the economy. Is all of this just coincidence?

    Scott Adams thinks it is a loony conservative angry at being called racist, deplorable, Nazi, etc who is worthy of receiving violence from the left.

    I read him saying he first thought the bombs were made by an angry Republican, until he learned they did not work.

    Not the bomber but an indication that there is more to come, not less
    In Minn, a chap they cheerily refer to as "Segway Boy" was arrested for trying to buy a lethal dose of a radioactive substance on the Internet to try and kill someone.

    " .... Ryan, who was dubbed “Segway Boy” faced multiple felony drug charges in 2016. He got the nickname after he was seen riding a Segway around the state capitol in 2011 taunting Republican lawmakers.

    He also attempted a congressional run against Paul Ryan in 2012.

    The attempted possession of radioactive material with intent to cause death charge carries a maximum term of life in prison. ...."

    so SN??
    You are Chuck Todd's handler?
    You posted:
    Russia Russia Russia"
    And Chuck?
    "Take MSNBC’s Chuck Todd, host of the venerable show "Meet The Press." On Thursday, he said that the Russians could be responsible for the spate of poorly made bombs sent to prominent Democrats and liberals, as well as the liberal news network CNN.

    "This feels like a spot — I have this fear that it could be some Russian operation too, in designed to do what’s happening now,” Todd said. “In some ways, we shouldn’t rule anything out. It is dividing us.”
