As for the post office delivering pipe bombs from California to Florida in 2-3 days, you have no idea when the guy put them in the system to know how long it took.
The stickers look brand new; they are covering so much of the windows that they are in violation of the law. As for the dud bombs, how did at least four of them get through the USPS facilities without having any cancellation marks on them?

Nothing wrong with being inquisitive.

Let me remind you no one died or got injured with these fake bombs. The left is unreal.

No different in Trumps outpouring for everyone getting along then blasting the left and the media.

No one died; it was definitely attempted murder though by an unhinged leftist fueled by rage against Republican legislators.

Of course the FBI is holding back information - this is an active investigation and the guy was just nabbed yesterday! The FBI will be holding lots of stuff close to their vest in order to bring about full justice when the guy is eventually tried. He will have a preliminary hearing on Monday morning, btw, and I expect we'll learn a bit more by then.

Though I doubt it and think this was a one-man operation, it's still possible there were conspirators, for example, and there well could be additional packages in the mail.

There will be lots of small details that won't be learned until the trial, too, as is usual in any significant case. No doubt Sayoc's lawyer knows quite a bit more than does the public at present, and he will use some of this at the trial eventually.

We'll learn all soon enough -for now, be patient and know that what's being released and withheld is standard operating procedure for a massive investigation of this kind.

People need to grow up - there are nuts everywhere - no party can get rid of them totally and it doesn't mean that the party supports their actions.

Exactly.

As an aside, I wonder if Sayoc abused steroids and other body building "cutting drugs" during his stripper and bb days. Long term side effects have caused many users to go off the rails.

Really? Perhaps you weren't posting on CD at that time but I can assure you that Democrats were blamed.

Do you know what Democrats DIDN'T DO? They didn't accuse Republicans of staging the whole thing for votes - like Republicans have done.

You really have a problem with people being inquisitive about things, huh?
I have a problem with conspiracy theories.

You have repeatedly asked this about the lack of postmarks over and over again, and you have been answered over and over again.

The packages would not fit through automatic cancelling machinery at the P.O. Ideally, they should have been hand-cancelled, but this sort of thing happens all the time and is not really an issue at all. At least one was marked for insufficient postage, so someone did personally handle that one, but again, that bears no significance whatsoever.

We now know it was just another middle-aged Trump loser. Per his own family attorney - he though he had found the perfect 'father figure' in Trump.
