The FBI and Secret Service are investigating a package containing the highly-toxic poison ricin that was mailed to President Trump last week, CNN is reporting.
The package was intercepted by law enforcement, the report said.
Two tests were done to confirm the presence of ricin in the package, law enforcement sources told the network.
It’s likely the package never even reached the White House.
All mail for the White House is sorted and screened at an offsite facility, the network noted.
The package appears to have been sent from Canada, an official told the New York Times.
In 2018, a former sailor was arrested in Utah for allegedly sending envelopes containing the unprocessed source of ricin — seeds from the castor plant — to Trump at the White House and also to the Pentagon.

Just start the war already
Another stupid lying statement out of this crooked White House
Roni Murphy Neidhardt another stupid lying statement from a fucktard.
Lol. Fake news
Like Trump would stoop to open his own mail.
No President is allowed to open mail.
Love it! Trump trash!
I love how one person does something horrendous and an entire group gets blamed.
Lori Sansone like cops are
Kathleen Patricia Yes, same thing there. We have great police and the few bad ones unfortunately overshadow the good ones.
Omg…dangerous ..who the hell has access to it…to be handling and mailing…could have harmed multiple people…
WTF is wrong with some of you people??? The problem in this country is NOT a Democrat or Republicans problem. The problem IS a human decency problem!!! Perfect example by some of these comments!! People seriously need to grow up nowadays!!
Deborah McDermott exactly. And it’s a shame. I LOVE this page for the local news it delivers. But lately I’ve been very turned away because of the political bashing. That’s the problem. It’s not a party problem. It’s a human problem. No one seems to give a shit about anyone anymore. It’s disgusting. I’m a dem. So what. I haven’t done or support the crazy things people are doing. I have republican friends who don’t support trumps ideals. Guess what? We don’t bash each other because we respect each other. Some of the people on these pages though love to wish death and destruction on the opposing party and it makes me sick.
Lolololol
Too bad, they should have know it wouldn’t make it to his desk. I like the message tho
Sandra Petroni Antonellis – you love the message of an assassination attempt of the President?
Trump is the desperate one. Leading his flock to corona virus rallies without social distancing or needing to wear masks
Heard it on the news yesterday. FBI is working on the case. They will find out where it was sent from .
Barbara Davis i wouldn’t be surprised if it was someone on this thread
They already arrested a woman that they believe sent it.
Too bad. Try try again lol
Sad
……????????????????????????????????
