'Potentially destructive devices' sent to Clinton, Obama, CNN prompt massive response

A sprawling investigation unfolded Wednesday as authorities scrambled to respond to a series of suspicious packages. Two packages were addressed to the homes of two former presidents and another was addressed to former CIA Director John Brennan at the New York City offices of CNN, prompting CNN's bureau and the Time Warner Center to evacuate.

The Secret Service said Wednesday morning it had intercepted the packages addressed to former President Obama's home in Washington and Bill and Hillary Clinton's residence in Westchester County, New York.

Another package was originally addressed to former Attorney General Eric Holder, but was sent to the wrong address and returned to the office of former DNC chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz.

Anyone else think it's strange how this security consultant explains how to make a pipe bomb on live television??

USPS is saying these packages would have had to be hand delivered in order to have arrived at the destinations.
How can that be and not have surveillance footage?
Did they all decide to turn off their security cameras?
Or did the person(s) placing the packages have foreknowledge of where the cameras would be? I smell a rat.

You don't pull this kind of stunt when you're winning. Ask the questions who does it hurt? Who does it help? There's you're awnsering.

Postal Service Dropped the ball in not detecting the package. Better security is needed in our mail system ASAP

The bomb has a digital timer taped to it. Real time bombs use analog.

If it was a terrorist attack it would already have blown them up. They wont waste there time to let it get caught. This has further decorative meanings behind it.
