George Soros was yesterday the first one who supposedly received a suspicious package (a bomb) and today followed a newsroom of the CNN, Obama and the Clintons. Somehow this strikes me a bit more than just an accident and carries a message of some planning behind it, since the Secret Service intercepted some packages "during a routine mail check". Maybe these culprits are in need of some pity?

Time Warner Center in New York, which hosts CNN offices, has been evacuated over a suspicious package report. This comes a few hours after mail bombs were intercepted at Barack Obama’s office and the Clintons’ home.

The NYPD is investigating the package found at the Time Warner Center, CNN said, citing sources within law enforcement. The network added that it evacuated its newsroom “as a precaution.”

The Secret Service said earlier on Wednesday that bombs sent to the house of former President Bill Clinton and his wife Hillary in Westchester County, New York, and the office of former President Barack Obama in Washington, DC were intercepted during a routine mail check. On Monday, a package containing an explosive device was found near the home of billionaire and Democratic Party donor George Soros, located not far from the Clintons.

CNN also reported earlier that a bomb addressed to the White House was intercepted, but this information was not confirmed officially.
The Time Warner Center is located at Columbus Circle in Manhattan near Central Park. Police have cordoned off the area around the building.

The device found in the Time Warner Center was allegedly constructed with a pipe and wires, CNN reports, citing police sources and adding that law enforcement is treating it as a “real explosive.”

According to CNN, the device was discovered in the mailroom of the Time Warner Center.

A bomb squad was deployed to the scene to remove the package, which was placed in a bomb containment unit on a truck.

The package was allegedly sent to 10 Columbus Circle, New York, NY 10019, USA, where the Time Warner Center is located, CNN reported, citing police sources. Later, CNN said that the package was addressed to former CIA director John Brennan via the news network.

US Vice President Mike Pence condemned the “attempted attacks” against CNN, Obama and the Clintons, calling them "cowardly” and “despicable” actions. Later, US President Donald Trump said he “wholeheartedly” agreed with Pence’s condemnation of the incidents.

Not sure what's going on and if it's some kind of ploy - considering this comes roughly two weeks before the Nov. 6 elections?

Suspicious Package Addressed to White House Intercepted after Potential Explosives Sent to Obamas, Clintons

The US Secret Service has intercepted “potential explosive devices” that were sent to former US President Barack Obama and former presidential candidate and first lady Hillary Clinton.

The explosives sent to Clinton was found late Tuesday while the one addressed to Obama was found early Wednesday, the Secret Service said in a statement on Wednesday.

“The packages were immediately identified during routine mail screening procedures as potential explosive devices and were appropriately handled as such.” the agency said.

Neither Clinton nor Obama received the explosives and the packages never reached their homes because of security procedures, the Secret Service said.

The packages sent to the two leading Democrats and a bomb delivered to one of the party’s major donors days earlier come roughly two weeks before the Nov. 6 elections that will determine whether Republicans maintain control of Congress in a deeply polarized nation.

Hillary Clinton was attending campaign events for Democrats in Florida on Tuesday and Wednesday and was not at the family’s residence in Chappaqua, New York, at the time. Bill Clinton was home at the time the package was intercepted.

The Time Warner Building in New York City was also evacuated on Wednesday after a suspicious package that had been mailed was found in the CNN mail room, the New York Police Department and CNN said.

The discovery of the packages came after a small bomb was found earlier this week at the home of billionaire Democratic donor George Soros in the New York City suburb of Katonah, about 10 miles (16 km) from the Clintons’ home.

American authorities said they intercepted separate suspicious packages addressed to Former First Lady Hillary Clinton and Former US President Barack Obama on Wednesday.

The US secret service (USSS) said:

"Late on October 23, 2018, the Secret Service recovered a single package addressed to Former First Lady Hillary Clinton in Westchester County, New York. Early this morning, October 24, 2018, a second package addressed to Former President Barack Obama was intercepted by Secret Service personnel in Washington, DC.

The packages were immediately identified during routine mail screening procedures as potential explosive devices and were appropriately handled as such," adding that Clinton and Obama were not at risk.

Three senior law enforcement officials said the return address name on the packages sent to Clinton, Obama, and Soros belonged to former Democratic National Committee representative Debbie Wasserman Schultz. However, there is no suggestion she was the one who sent the packages.

A picture of one of the suspected explosive devices shared by NBC News.

Speaking at a campaign event in Florida, Clinton said she and her family her fine and thanked the secret service for intercepting the package before it reached their home in New York.

A small bomb was found earlier this week at the home of billionaire George Soros, in the New York City suburb of Katonah.

Time Warner evacuated because of suspicious package
The New York Police Department (NYPD) was called to the Time Warner Center in New York City to investigate a suspicious package. The mailed item was found in the CNN mail room, said police and CNN.

CNN anchor Jim Sciutto shared a video of the device being transported by the NYPD containment unit.

He also tweeted that the package was specifically meant for former CIA director John Brennan even though it was delivered to the CNN NYC offices.

Brennan, who led the CIA under Obama, has been an outspoken critic of US President Donald Trump.

Back in August, Trump attacked Brennan in a tweet where he called him the "worst" in history.

CNN's senior media reporter Oliver Darcy tweeted a statement from the company's president Jeff Zucker to all employees, saying the Time Warner building had been evacuated after a "suspicious package was received in the mailroom".

Suspicious package delivered to other offices under investigation
Police are also investigating a suspicious package at Wasserman Schultz's Florida office.

Broward County's sheriff said their bomb squad was on the scene in a tweet.

Another suspicious package was reported to have been delivered at the building housing the San Diego Union-Tribune in San Diego, California, said the local NBC affiliate. The building was evacuated. Police have tweeted to avoid the area as they carry out their investigation.

A journalist working the Tribune said they shared the building with a branch of Senator Kamala Harris.

But a statement from Harris' office and local police said there wasn't a suspicious package at the Senator's office in San Diego and the item police checked out was not addressed to her and was not a device.

Several officials told NBC that a package similar to the other addressed to former Attorney General Eric Holder was intercepted before it was delivered.

US Vice President Mike Pence condemned "the attacks" against Obama, Clinton, CNN, and others in a tweet.

My first thought is that they (Democracks) did this themselves to put oil on the fire!
Because it is obvious that none of these 'explosive engines' had any chance of reaching anyone of any importance in the struggle....

The show must go on!
And I think as you said Angelburst29: it is a PLOY!!!

My exact sentiments, Romochar! :-)

A thought came across my mind with this "developing scenario" - an announcement was just published a few hours ago by the Russian Press that Putin will be meeting Trump "for a full meeting" on Nov. 11 - not a quick meeting on the sidelines.

The one's who are being named as the targets of these packages - all loudly voiced their disapproval of Trump's meeting with Putin in Helsinki? Coincidence? Now, they just announced on the news "a Terrorism Alert" because "At least seven political targets in America have been sent suspected explosive devices through the post this week in what New York mayor Bill de Blasio described as "an act of terrorism."

My concern - if this is part of "a diversion tactic" to a possible assassination attempt - on Our President??? And blame it on Terrorism?

False flags or MAGAbomber? Explosive devices sent to Democrats divide America
Published time: 24 Oct, 2018 21:15 / Tweets
What do the Clintons, Obamas, Debbie Wasserman Schultz, George Soros, Maxine Waters and CNN have in common? They’re all outspoken critics of President Donald Trump, and recipients of pipe bomb packages. Is there a connection?

A pipe bomb was delivered to the CNN headquarters in New York City on Wednesday morning. It was addressed to former CIA chief John Brennan – who is actually a MSNBC pundit – and had the return address of Rep. Wasserman Schultz. The envelope had insufficient postage, and misspelled Brennan’s name and Florida.

The former DNC chair Schultz’s office in Florida received a similar device. So did the congressional mailroom in Maryland, addressed to Rep. Waters (D-California). Another was sent to the home of former President Bill Clinton and his wife Hillary in Chappaqua, New York – and Barack and Michelle Obama’s residence in Washington, DC.

New York City Mayor Bill deBlasio and New York Governor Andrew Cuomo called the packages “an act of terrorism” at a press conference on Wednesday, placing them squarely in the context of the upcoming midterm elections. Leaders of Democrats in Congress, Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-New York) and Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-California) blamed Trump’s “statements that condone acts of violence” and attack the press. CNN president Jeff Zucker also lashed out at the White House, denouncing Trump's "continued attacks on the media."

Democrat activists were quick to blame Trump and claim this was the work of his supporters, coining the hashtag “MAGAbomber.”

Some conservative commentators countered by saying that the timing of the bomb scare – just two weeks before the contentious midterm elections – suggested a Democrat play for sympathy, and that the vast majority of violent incidents over the past two years were aimed against Republicans.

Hillary Clinton, who was in Florida, was quick to make political hay out of the suspicious packages, saying that America is divided and “we have to do everything we can to bring our country together” – by electing Democrats, of course. She conveniently forgot her own argument against civility towards Republicans, aired on CNN earlier this month.

Earlier in the day, the New York Times ran an op-ed by Alexander Soros, son of the billionaire mega-donor funding the Democrats in the US and like-minded parties in Europe and elsewhere. Decrying the explosive that was sent to his father’s New York residence earlier this week, Soros blamed Trump and called for a Democrat victory in the coming midterms:

“We must find our way to a new political discourse that shuns the demonization of all political opponents. A first step would be to cast our ballots to reject those politicians cynically responsible for undermining the institutions of our democracy. And we must do it now, before it is too late.”

President Trump and his family have condemned the bomb packages as “cowardly attacks” and “despicable acts,” with Trump promising to bring the “full weight of the government” to bear on those responsible.

“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 United States of America,” he said at the White House on Wednesday afternoon.

It is difficult to tell whether the suspicious packages are the work of an individual or a group, retired US Marshal Matthew Fogg told RT. However, if there are multiple perpetrators, the authorities will have an easier job tracking them down, because odds are greater that “somebody’s going to make a mistake.”

Former CIA officer Philip Giraldi was more skeptical, saying that tracking down the would-be bomber will be “very difficult, unless they were dumb enough to include fingerprints on the bombs or in the packaging.”

The authorities will be looking at small details that laymen usually don’t even notice, Fogg said. He believes evidence resulting from the investigation will be definitive enough to satisfy the public.

The packages “might be an attempt to create negative sentiment against right-wing groups just before the election to create some kind of shift to the left, but there is no evidence of that,” Giraldi told RT. “And I don't think it would be successful,” he added, as most people complaining about the bombs are “committed progressives who are already on board to hating Trump and his supporters.”

I don't know if ... this is symbolic or not, considering it happened on the same day but a plane with Nazi markings crash landed on the California 101 highway? Could it be Snoopy and the Red Barron playing tricks - from above?

Wormhole? Nazi-Marked Plane Crashes Onto California Freeway, Bursts Into Flames

A vintage aircraft with some of the markings of Nazi Germany’s Luftwaffe crashed onto the 101 Freeway in Agoura Hills, California on Tuesday and burst into flames.

No one was injured.

Despite the use of the Luftwaffe’s black-and-white cross, the plane was not a WWII aircraft from Germany but rather a vintage North American AT-6/SNJ trainer aircraft. The plane belonged to Condor Squadron, a nonprofit organization which flies WWII-themed planes over parades, celebrations, memorials and in mock dogfights.

“I picked a spot on the freeway where I knew there was a big section of cars that weren’t there,” pilot Rob Sandberg told KABC. “The engine completely failed. I was able to, fortunately, not hurt anybody other than the airplane.”

Vintage plane catches alight after crashing onto LA freeway

A vintage aircraft crashed on to a busy Los Angeles freeway on Tuesday before setting alight.

All lanes were closed and traffic backed up for miles as the Los Angeles Fire Department worked to extinguish the blaze and clear the wreckage.

Miraculously the pilot, and only person on board, was pulled from the crash uninjured. The pilot was able to issue an emergency alert as they lost power after taking off from Van Nuys airport.

The vintage plane, belonging to Condor Squadron Aviation Club, was decorated in World War II-era Luftwaffe markings.

I feel the same way. Interesting they included Soros though..... is this a tacit acknowledgement of the growing understanding in people about the influence of this "philanthropist" in the cultural and political wars in the west and beyond? I honestly don't see this tactic putting a single dent in the popular opinion of Americans, although I'm sure the MSM will try their hardest to drum up commotion.

And now Robert De Niro and Joe Biden got Halloween gifts too.

I'd say there is little doubt that this is political given the timing. The only question is whether it is legit, i.e. someone genuinely provoked to do it by the division in society, or if it's more of a 'false flag' i.e. someone with an covert (although at the same time fairly transparent) agenda to increase divisions. Delusional and infantile idiots that they are, there's nothing the ptb love more than to divide the people.

Delusional seems to be the operative word. The largest employers in the United States are Walmart and Amazon. Do they seriously imagine average Joe or Jane working there, pressured to eschew bathroom breaks, and still relying on food stamps, shedding a single tear for the likes of Clinton, Obama, Biden, or the people telling them everything’s been going swimmingly for the last 25 years of neoliberalism? DeNiro I’m less sure about. He’s said “F Trump” at an award show of some kind to thunderous applause (so brave) but I almost wonder if this is additional instruction to him due to his role in the Vaxxed documentary. As in, “as a celebrity you’ve shown yourself to be expendable to us.” I may be reading too much into that though.

James Woods dismisses suspected bomb sent to Clintons as an 'obvious political stunt'

The 71-year-old Casino star brushed off the incident as “an obvious political stunt,” saying no one cares enough about the Clintons to send them a bomb.

Then it was pretty much business as usual for Woods, an avid supporter of President Trump, slamming Democrats and railing against immigration. He also called Obama a “clown.”

Who gives a rat’s ass about the #Clintons enough to do this? Obvious political stunt… https://t.co/QP7n6KX1A8
