Just when things looked desperate for Democrats two weeks before the [[2018 Midterm elections]] with unhinged mobs responding to the party's leadership, CNN reported it had received a mail bomb addressed to [[John Brennan]], who actually works for [[NBC]]. Republican leaders were quick to condemn political violence, unlike Democrat leaders, who encouraged it. President Trump vowed to use all the resources of the federal government to find who was responsible. The NYPD initially said the bombs were active, however after the story hit the news cycle, the false information was retracted.<ref>https://www.apnews.com/5c93ac06309c4ce88e8cd5023f89feca</ref> Mainstream media however, continued to report bombs were being sent to senior Democrats and blamed Trump and Republicsns for creating a poisonous atmosphere.
Just when things looked desperate for Democrats with unhinged mobs responding to the party's leadership, CNN reported it had received a mail bomb addressed to [[John Brennan]], who actually works for [[NBC]]. Nonetheless, CNN opened John Brennan's mail anyway, paused to take pictures of the alleged bomb, before evacuting the building in a panic. Others recieved mailings as well.

''The Associated Press'' reported: {{quotebox|A law enforcement official says tests have determined that a powder found inside an envelope delivered to CNN along with a pipe bomb was harmless.
The official wasn’t authorized to discuss the investigation publicly and spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity.
New York City’s police commissioner said earlier Wednesday that the package sent to CNN’s offices in Manhattan contained a live explosive and an envelope containing white powder.
The FBI said the package was similar to explosives sent to former President Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, former Attorney General Eric Holder and billionaire George Soros.
The package sent to CNN was addressed to former CIA Director John Brennan, a frequent guest on the channel. The official says that parcel contained no note or claim of responsibility.

None of the bombs were active, and the alleged bomber didn't know how to build a bomb anyway. The alleged bombs lacked a detonator device.
None of this stopped CNN and other mainstream sources from whipping up anti-Trump hysteria in sympathy with Trump critics and those calling for violence and Resistance.
After President Trump ordered a nationwide man-hunt, a 56 year old homeless unemployed male stripper was arrested.
