Explosive devices were sent Wednesday to former President Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton and the New York offices of CNN television. The devices appeared to target well-known members of the Democratic Party. The news comes as Americans get ready to vote in the upcoming mid-term elections. President Donald Trump condemned the attempted bombings. Trump said, “Acts or threats of political violence have no place in the United States.” He added, “We have to unify, we have to come together.” The U.S. Secret Service said that the “potential explosive devices” were identified and removed before reaching Obama and Clinton. The device sent to CNN was addressed to John Brennan, a fierce critic of President Donald Trump. He served as director of the Central Intelligence Agency under Obama. The New York Police Department said explosives experts removed a pipe bomb from the CNN office.
