Bomb threats target Democratic strongholds on Election Day

The Trump Timeline:

Sources linked at end of page.

In an ongoing campaign to cause chaos and support its preferred candidate, Donald Trump, Russian-linked bomb threats deemed “mostly non credible” were sent to multiple polling locations on Election Day. From NBC News:

Bomb threats sent to polling places and ballot-counting locations in at least five battleground states across the U.S. Tuesday targeted mostly Democratic counties, an NBC News analysis has found. The full extent of who received the bomb threats is not clear. None are believed to have been deemed credible.

News of the bomb threats caused social-media mentions (and conspiracy theories) to skyrocket, according to Center for an Informed Public. Full impact of the bomb-threat campaign is still unclear.

AUTHOR COMMENT

Based on bomb threats alone, I don’t see any functional purpose of Vice President Kamala Harris conceding so quickly to Trump. Months earlier, Donald claimed without evidence that he “didn’t need any votes” and that his supporters only needed to vote “one more time.” To my ear, that’s a confession to some type of coordinated operation. And I’m still wondering what the U.S. intelligence community knew and how they may have connected dots without saying a word, again, to the American people. Remember, he steals anything not nailed down and the act of conceding should’ve been done after investigations ran their course.

The bomb threats themselves had a distinct “transactional” feel, particularly since conspiracy theorist Alex Jones and RNC’s paid propagandist Lara Trump both seized the opportunity to foment conspiracies afterward.
