Hazmat and firefighters were at the Jupiter, Florida, home of Donald Trump Jr. on Monday after the former president's son received a threatening letter containing white powder.
The letter was also addressed to his fiance Kimberly Guilfoyle, Eric Trump and his wife Lara, Jared and Ivanka Kushner, and Barron Trump.
"Trump Jr., the eldest son of former President Donald Trump, received the letter and opened the envelope—causing the white powder to fly out," an unnamed source told the Daily Beast.
The letter began, "Again, how many lives will be ruined before psychopath Donald is silenced? Lee Harvey Oswald's grandson must complete his contract."
“It’s just become a little bit too commonplace that this sort of stuff happens,” Trump Jr. told the Daily Caller. “Clearly, if this happened to a prominent Democrat it wouldn’t be tolerated and would drive news coverage for weeks. The media would blame all Republicans and force them to answer for it, But since it’s me, radical haters on the left will largely get a free pass and the media will barely flinch.”
In 2018, another letter containing white powder was sent to Trump Jr. His wife at the time, Vanessa Trump, opened it next to their young children.
“It doesn’t matter what your politics are, this type of crap is unacceptable,” Trump Jr. continued. “This is actually the second white powder substance envelope that’s been mailed to me. The last time we had this happen, it was during my father’s presidency and my then-wife opened it up with my kids by her side. So, it’s just sad that we live in a society where politics and the left’s hatred of my father would drive people to do such crazy things, but that’s where we are unfortunately. ”
This is a developing story. It is currently unknown what the white substance was.
“The test results of the substance came up inconclusive on what it was exactly, but officials on the scene do not believe it is deadly,” a spokesperson for Trump Jr. told the Daily Beast.
This is a breaking news story. SCNR will update this article as more information becomes available.
