Blaming violence on the targets of the violence - as Trump, his son, and their supporters have done over the past 48 hours - is a form of condoning and inciting violence

In Trump's third tweet since the announcement of an 11th and a 12th bomb, he finally mentions the bombs. But he only mentions them to complain that they have slowed his "momentum." Not to express concern. Not to even say that he is being briefed.
Add...
Suspicious package being investigated in Sacramento, California. CNN reports package was addressed to Democratic Senator Kamala Harris. If confirmed, package would be 13th intercepted so far.
Add...
Authorities investigating another suspicious package intercepted in Burlingame, CA that was addressed to Tom Steyer.

FBI Director Christopher Wray: "These are not hoax devices."

There's plenty of crow to be eaten by Trumpsters who claimed this was a "hoax".
Add...
In light of FBI Director Wray explicitly saying "these are not hoax devices," it's worth noting just how many conservative and far-right activists attempted to suggest that these explosive devices were part of a false flag operation.
