re: #55 dangerman

i dont know if this is semantics or not

‘a former president”

is that based on the actual addressee? cause, you know, Bill….

Probably. But even if Hillary was the intended target she’s still an official Secret Service protectee and will be for the rest of her life even if Bill passes away before she does.

re: #39 makeitstop

Sessions says the guy is being charged with 5 crimes, with a possible max sentence of 57 years.

No attempted murder among the charges, mostly explosives-related, with one charge of threatening a former president.

Where’s the goddamn attempted murder charges??

The Federal attempted murder statute restricts charges to acts committed within the special maritime or territorial jurisdiction of the US. So even though he sent the bombs through the USPS this technically might not meet that definition, and instead it appears they’re going to go with destructive device and protected target charges.
