CNN Evacuated After Bomb Threat

Thursday, December 06, 2018

CNN's New York offices and studios have been evacuated due to a phoned bomb threat, the company said. Several fire alarm bells rang inside CNN's New York newsroom, signaling an evacuation shortly after 10:30 p.m. Staffers evacuated the building and Don Lemon's CNN Tonight was taken off the air.

Let me guess. A middle aged white guy, that lives in his mother's basement, unemployed and unemployable, lives off the state, loves guns, poorly educated, loves listening to and consumes Fox News, Brietbart, Infowars, daily stormer, and other alt-right propaganda sources and LOVES his Orange Fuhrer.

These troglodyte's and bottomfeeders are always caught.

Let me guess. The same "patriotic soldiers" you described will say it's a false flag perpetrated by the fake news MSM desperately trying to cling to some rating through false sympathy!

And making Trump look bad!

Somehow!

Interesting timing that this would occur about 30 minutes after Trump rage tweeted nonsense about the media. We already know he doesn't care about they lives of journalists.

Wait till the bombs are not threats. Real bombers don't send a warnings. They take credit after the device functions.

"Tweet storm Holiday edition will continue after these messages"

Very stable genius will get to work tweeting very cool and very legal things. NOT!

Is that a promise or a threat?

For the record, the CNN office is located in a large mall with hundreds if not thousands of Americans busy shopping for the celebration of the Holiday season. A bomb there could slaughter and maim as many or more than an incident such as the Oklahoma City bombing.

Oh Danni. Of course it's as parody based off of #1. The real is #7.

Trump's braying about the media has had the effect of releasing the kraken. Tough now to get the kooks, bigots and far-far right back into their boxes. Imagine, if your dare, a female/Jewish/dark-skinned president following Pence's brief presidency in 2019-2020. In that event, there WILL be bombings, shootings and cars mowing down pedestrians on sidewalks nationwide.

Trump's real impact on this country is less about the federal judiciary as it is on rising political violence and fraud in the US. Most of us can live with conservative judges, but who can live with death squads on our home soil?

What are the odds that minutes after the call was made Trump was craposting about fake news on twitter?

Trump was ahead of the curve on this one.

"On Thursday evening at 10:07 pm, President Donald Trump posted a tweet containing all of seven words -- "FAKE NEWS - THE ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE!"
A short time later, CNN's Don Lemon had to abruptly go to commercial break as CNN's New York studio was evacuated because of a bomb threat."

This is worrisome. To degrees Trump is being exposed as a profiteer in collaboration with Russian intelligence rather sooner than later. How ragewarrios process this information and who is telling them to reject it matters. Fox has been misinforming and weaponizing their behavior patterns for decades now. Being confronted with truth causes angry mob reactions. Maybe Willie Nelson should invest in a THC instead of pepper spray to sedate, not irritate. It would be our own nations little Live AID with artists from every state coming together to change the harshness of today's police state tactics. Pot becoming the miracle incarceration drug might not be an anticipated legacy, but neither would a Miley Cyrus Marilyn Manson collab. Sounds like it would professionally harm everyone involved? Probably.

We're only hearing about this because it's CNN. 100,000 other incidents happen every day because of the Trump terrorist indoctrination tour.

Well, righties are increasingly more closely aligning with Islamic terrorists/theocrats so I have little doubt they'll start bombing things soon.

Anyone can build a bomb. All it takes is motive. Most terrorist attracts and bombings in our history has been from the left.

Some bombs are actually only clocks. Could be that some unpaid intern didn't want to work late on a Thursday and was itching for a 3-day

Dzhokhar Tsarnaev and Tamerlan Tsarnaev weren't the left.

Eric Rudolph and the Army of God weren't the left.

Timothy McVeigh wasn't the left.

Thomas Blanton, Robert Chambliss and Bobby Cherry weren't the left.

James Kopp wasn't the left.

Scott Roeder wasn't the left.

Robert Lewis Dear wasn't the left.

Michael F. Griffin wasn't the left.

Paul Jennings Hill wasn't the left.

Dylann Roof wasn't the left.

Wade Michael Page wasn't the left.

The killers of of Chaney, Goodman, and Schwerner weren't the left...

As usual, you're full of ---.

Not really. It does require knowing how to make one, and more complicated knowing where to find the components.

That blows turning a Tesla into an EMP battery. Nobody can afford one, let alone monetize theirs as a mobile electric cafe or weapon of terrorism.
