CONFIRMED: Pipe Bomb Powder Sent to CNN Was Harmless – It Was Not Ricin – Bombs Likely Fakes

Law enforcement confirmed on Wednesday night that the white powder with the “pipe bomb” sent to CNN addressed to John Brennan was a harmless.

According to the AP: The NYPD said the explosive devices were live during a Wednesday afternoon press conference but subsequent reporting suggests they were not functional.

All of the devices carried a parody ISIS flag featuring comedian Larry the Cable Guy’s signature slogan, “git ‘er done,” NBC News reported late Wednesday.

It appears they were all fakes.

As The Gateway Pundit reported earlier today — IT WAS ALL A HOAX.

The clocks taped to the “pipe bombs” do not have an alarm function.

Neon Revolt reported:

Turns out, #Anons were able to locate the actual make and model of the clock taped to one of the bombs.

Aaaaaaand…

It doesn’t even have an alarm function.

In other words, it can’t count down to anything. It’s literally just to make a “scary-looking” bomb prop.

The clocks do not have an alarm function. It was a complete hoax.
