Threatening Letter Sent to Donald Trump's Sister Prompts Investigation: Sourceby Katy Tur


Donald Trump's older sister, federal appeals court judge Maryanne Trump Barry, received a threatening letter in Philadelphia on Friday — one day after the GOP front-runner's son received a suspicious piece of mail containing white powder, sources told NBC News.
There was no white powder sent to Trump Barry, although the threat included in her letter was similar to that given to Eric Trump, a source familiar with the investigation said. Eric Trump's letter, received Thursday, demanded that his real estate mogul father drop out of the Republican race for the presidential nomination.

It's unclear if both letters have the same sender. The FBI and Secret Service are investigating the incident.

Trump Barry, a 78-year-old judge with the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals for the 3rd Circuit, was the subject of some scrutiny earlier this year when Trump mentioned her in jest when asked about whom he would appoint to the Supreme Court.

The mail sent to Eric Trump was postmarked in Massachusetts, police sources said, but preliminary tests deemed the substance non-hazardous.
Calls for suspicious and threatening packages are common for high profile personalities.

Fucking asshole leftists. Class is a word they never learned. I fucking hope this thing goes full retard because it may just be the catalyst for starting a shootin war. It's going to come to that you know folks. I really believe that and it's the only way to shut up these bitches on the left. They will NOT go quietly.

You gonna shoot leftists at the mailbox Joshua?

Fucking asshole leftists... bitches on the left.... it's a JPTP thing, not their left/right construct. Ross Perot dropping out in '91 is attributed to threats communicated to his daughter & perhaps numerous others at her planned wedding.
