The bombs did manage to push these out of the news cycle:
Trump & Kushner complicity in murder of Kashoggi.
Republican attacks on pre-existing conditions.
Trump’s $500million tax evasion.
McConnell’s announced cuts to Social Security & Medicare.
GOP voter suppression. -

I believe they were BOMBS, pipe BOMBS, not suspicious packages right? I mean, let's be clear
-
Actually, yet to be revealed whether they were functioning bombs. So, for now, the responsible reporting is suspicious packages or potential explosive devices.
-
agree. accuracy is responsible reporting which also includes being consistent.pic.twitter.com/ULndZjUnJD

I have no issue with that headline either, as it says "Apparent."

Until it's determined they are actually functioning explosive devices (yet to be reported) it's not a plot to kill.
-
These packages, or at least the one sent to CNN was a live bomb. Police detonated it safely.

Source? Haven't seen it. Thx.

For the one for John Brennan (c/o CNN), https://nypost.com/2018/10/24/bomb-sent-to-cnn-came-with-envelope-of-white-powder/ … They point out that it was actual explosives but that it lacked an ignition source which mostly points to someone who doesn't know what they're doing rather than someone who isn't intending to harm.
-
So...not a live explosive (as it lacked an ignition source.) Everything else is speculation about motivation or skill set of maker.

Wasn’t there one also to CNN? Be careful.

Sent to Brennan c/o CNN - same package
-
Even though Brennan is a contributor for CNBC, not CNN.

He was scheduled to appear on CNN that day...
