    Dangerous...

    A suspicious package addressed to the White House was intercepted on Wednesday, according to CNN.

    Earlier in the day, the Secret Service said that "potential explosive devices" were addressed to former President Barack Obama and ex-presidential candidate Hillary Clinton. The Time Warner building in New York City on Wednesday was evacuated following a report of suspicious package.

    The White House and the Secret Service did not immediately respond to requests for comment from CNBC regarding the package addressed to the White House.

    A pipe bomb loaded with explosive black powder was hand-delivered to the suburban New York City home of billionaire financier George Soros by a would-be attacker, prompting the FBI to launch an investigation into who would want to harm the philanthropist and political activist, a law enforcement source told ABC News on Tuesday.

      Anyone who sends a bomb to someone should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law, regardless of the ideology he espouses. For that matter, anyone encouraging such actions should be prosecuted, too.

        Or an eye for an eye is a deterrent from taking an eye in the first place. Though this bomb thing is just wrong.

            It is time for leaders of BOTH parties to clearly and loudly denounce the violence in all forms - including the "protests" in restaurants and the chasing down of public officials for harassment. And, yes, Trump too!
            The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

              Since the bombs did not detonate (thankfully) there will be lots of evidence and clues to hunt down the perpetrator(s).

                8:55 AM PT -- All the packages reportedly have the same return address, which belongs to Rep. Debbie Wasserman-Schultz. She was chairperson for the Democratic National Committee from 2011 to 2016.

                8:40 AM PT -- Democratic Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz's Florida office was just evacuated after a suspicious package was mailed there Wednesday morning. The bomb squad is currently on scene.

                7:55 AM PT -- Law enforcement sources tell TMZ the package sent to the CNN building was addressed to former CIA Director John Brennan, who has been a frequent CNN contributor. The package was a manila envelope with 6 stamps.

                7:55 AM PT -- It now appears the stories that a bomb was sent to The White House are incorrect. As far as we can tell right now, no such device was sent. That re-focuses the terrorist attacks and strongly indicates the targets were prominent Democrats who were highly critical of Donald Trump.

                Also, Time Warner Center in NYC where CNN is located has been evacuated after a suspicious device was found in the mail room. That device, we're told, resembles a pipe bomb.

                    They look like pretty basic pipe bombs...

                        Yeah, but what if it's the President that encourages violence?

                            yeah if. I wouldn't put it past some liberal to do it to try to make conservatives look bad.

                              It actually could be, we don't know yet. Remember one of your guys actually shot one of our guys and others.
