In April and June 1919 anarchists sent a string of bombs to current and former high-ranking U.S. officials. None of the intended targets were killed, but a nightwatchman outside the home of New York judge Charles Cooper Nott was killed. (2/12) medium.com/cato-institute…
One of the bombs blew the hands off a maid working for ex-senator Thomas Hardwick. Anarchists sent dozens of these bombs. One of these bombs detonated early, killing the wannabe assassin killing Carlo Valdinoci outside Attorney General A. Mitchell Palmer’s home. (3/12)
