FBI investigating threatening letters sent to election officials in several states
The FBI warned election offices to be on the lookout after threatening letters containing suspicious substances were sent to the offices of multiple secretaries of state throughout the country.
A senior law enforcement official confirmed that election officials in at least six states received packages Monday but said that so far none of the packages have been found to contain any actual hazardous material.
Secretaries of state, attorney generals’ offices and state election offices in Nebraska, Iowa, Kansas, Tennessee, Wyoming and Oklahoma were targeted. The return address identified the sender as the “U.S.T.E.A.” — “US Traitor Elimination Army.”
The Kansas secretary of state’s office was evacuated Monday, as were offices in Iowa and Oklahoma.
The FBI said in a statement it was "working with our partners to determine how many letters were sent, the individual or individuals responsible for the letters, and the motive behind the letters. As this is an ongoing matter we will not be commenting further on the investigation, but the public can be assured safety is our top priority.”

I do not recall this type of thing happening before trump began calling the integrity of elections in to question. Nor do I recall seeing stories about election officials quitting their jobs. These days so as to avoid the wrath of trump's mob. Begging the question, where is his condemnation of threats made against election workers?
The most detailed look yet at the 'exodus' of local voting officials
It's been clear for some time that the work environment in these jobs was becoming unsustainable. Threats and harassment have become commonplace since the flurry of voting lies that followed Donald Trump's loss in 2020, while at the same time, the actual job duties required have been steadily growing more complex.
He doesn't condemn the intimidation because his goal is to have non-partisan election workers replaced with his sycophants. His goal is to corrupt the system brick by brick.
Because it isn’t a conspiracy, it is fact.why is this in Politics instead of Conspiracy or rubber room?
you've got proof trump is behind it?Because it isn’t a conspiracy, it is fact.
Read the OP and the news. Trumpers are on a mission to derail the November election.you've got proof trump is behind it?
Because the letters to elections workers were actually sent. Because election workers have actually been quitting at an unprecedented rate since the advent of trumpery.why is this in Politics instead of Conspiracy or rubber room?
They can't handle the truth. Thanks for throwing it in their faces.Read the OP and the news. Trumpers are on a mission to derail the November election.

Why has he not condemned it?you've got proof trump is behind it?
Election officials around the country have complained of increased threats to their offices, some of them pointing to false claims from former President Donald Trump and his allies that the 2020 election was rigged as the cause of the spike. The envelopes sent out Monday went to offices in states Trump is expected to win in November.Just because YOU never heard of it happening, doesn't mean it never happened.
How narcissistic can you get?
and that means Trump is behind it?Because the letters to elections workers were actually sent. Because election workers have actually been quitting at an unprecedented rate since the advent of trumpery.
If Trump can’t win legitimately, rig the vote and intimidate the vote counters. That has been Trump’s strategy since Trump’s defeat in 2020. Trump and his minions of sore losers are a danger to our democratic institutions. It is just sad that innocent and hard working true American patriots working at the polls have to deal with these Trumpist miscreants.
They can't handle the truth. Thanks for throwing it in their faces.
can you?They can't handle the truth.
Read the OP and the news. Trumpers are on a mission to derail the November election.

Your post has nothing to do with the topic at hand and is a deflection. The issue is Trumpist intimidation and threats to poll workers. Why don’t you condemn these actions instead of making excuses for them?The real shame is that so many American’s heads are so deep in the sand that they are unable to see the blatant disregard to election security by the Democratic Party and fall for the tired “voter disenfranchisement” rhetoric when any security measures are even mentioned to secure the elections.
Election integrity should be of the utmost importance to true Americans. That includes enforcing the existing laws like being a citizen to vote. It is a law, but it isn’t enforced.(on purpose)
Stop deflecting and condemn Trumpist threats to poll workers.And Democrats are on a mission to derail the election by no securing them. Where have you been?
Is that what you are calling a fact? lolRead the OP and the news. Trumpers are on a mission to derail the November election.
