Who Sent POISON Letters To Trump, Ted Cruz And The Pentagon?

Deadly ricin toxin is unsophisticated and easy to get hold of

Steve Watson | Infowars.com - October 3, 2018

Questions abound over the origin of letters sent to the White House and The Pentagon that were found to contain ricin, the highly toxic substance made from castor beans.

Reports suggest that two packages were stopped Monday at a mail facility before they entered the Pentagon. The packages were addressed to U.S. Secretary of Defense James Mattis and the Navy’s top officer, Admiral John Richardson.

It has now been confirmed that the Secret Service intercepted a third package addressed to the President.

“The envelope was not received at the White House, nor did it ever enter the White House,” a statement noted, adding “We can confirm that we are working jointly with our law enforcement partners to fully investigate this matter.”

In a potentially related incident, a “white powdery substance” was discovered in mail sent to Senator Ted Cruz’s Houston campaign office.

The Houston Fire Department confirmed that the building had been evacuated, and that two people have been hospitalized.

Two people were taken to the hospital after apparently being exposed to a white powdery substance in an office building at 3200 SW Fwy. The 9th floor of the Phoenix Tower has been evacuated as HFD HazMat is responding to the scene working to determine the nature of the substance.

It has not been confirmed if the incidents are linked, or that the substance at Cruz’s office is also ricin.

If inhaled, ricin can cause nausea, vomiting, and ultimately a painful death within hours if the toxins trigger internal bleeding and respiratory failure.

The substance is fairly easy to create with castor beans being readily available. Thus it is considered a crude form of poisoning, certainly not indicative of a sophisticated plot.

In previous incidents involving ricin sent to politicians and authority figures, the perpetrators have been determined to be mentally disturbed individuals.

Last week Senator Cruz was harassed and forced to leave a restaurant by members of a leftist mob, who described the Senator as a ‘fascist’.

Cruz has been friends with creep Kavanaugh for 20 years. Now Cruz is on judiciary committee hearing his testimony.

The group, which calls itself ‘Smash Racism DC’ vowed on Twitter, “You are not safe. We will find you.”

“This is a message to Ted Cruz, Bret Kavanaugh, Donald Trump and the rest of the racist, sexist, transphobic, and homophobic right-wing scum: You are not safe. We will find you. We will expose you. We will take from you the peace you have taken from so many others.” the tweet read.



One founder of the group is Antifa supporting professor Mike Isaacson who previously tweeted about teaching “future dead cops” and assassinating Mike Pence.

The leftist mob that confronted @tedcruz and his family and that is now threatening them is lead by the former @JohnJayCollege Prof., Mike Isaacson, who has openly advocated for violence against his political enemies.

Isaacson previously tweeted his desire to “Kill all white people born before 1962.”



On the day of the presidential election, Isaacson tweeted, “Reminder that if Trump does end up winning this stupid thing to assassinate Mike Pence *first*.” The tweet has not been deleted and remains active.

It is not known whether Isaacson still has any involvement with the group that harassed Cruz, but given their apparent threats his views certainly seemed to be shared by the group.

There have been several incidents recently involving the ‘doxxing’ of Republicans and harrassment by leftist mobs.

Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders, Florida Attorney General Pat Bondi, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY), DHS Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen and White House advisor Stephen Miller have been recently targeted by such angry mobs.

How the heck is this guy not in jail? I believe that those statements do cross the line between freedom of speech and criminal activity.

Capitol Police Arrest Ex-Democratic Staffer Suspected Of Doxxing GOP Senators

10/03/2018
Andrew Kerr | Investigative Reporter

U.S. Capitol Police arrested Wednesday a former Democratic staffer suspected of posting the personal information of at least one United States senator to the internet.

The home addresses and other personal information of Republican Sens. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina and Mike Lee and Orrin Hatch of Utah were posted to Wikipedia on Sept. 27 from an individual located in the House of Representatives.

Jackson A. Cosko, 27, was charged with making public restricted personal information, witness tampering, threats in interstate communications, unauthorized access of a government computer, identity theft, second-degree burglary and unlawful entry, according to a Capitol Police statement. Additional charges may be forthcoming as the investigation continues.

Cosko has most recently worked as an intern for Texas Democratic Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee. He has also worked under Democratic Sen. Maggie Hassan of New Hampshire and former California Sen. Barbara Boxer, according to Fox News.

Jackson Lee’s Chief of Staff Glenn Rushing told Politico that Cosko has been fired.

“We’re just cooperating with law enforcement right now,” Rushing said.

Cosko is a “Democratic Political Professional & Cybersecurity Graduate Student,” according to his LinkedIn page, which states that his job duties in the U.S. Senate included assisting senior staff “with issues before the Commerce Committee including technology, telecommunications, transportation; as well as with cybersecurity matters before the Homeland Security Committee.”

All three senators doxxed Thursday sit on the Senate Judiciary Committee. Their personal information was posted online as Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh was being questioned about sexual assault allegations.

Graham said multiple people came to his house after his personal information was made public.

“I got a new number and a bunch of people beating on my door last night,” Graham told “Fox & Friends” on Sept. 28.

Capitol police probe additional doxxing incidents targeting senators, including Rand Paul

By Bradford Betz | Fox News

Capitol Hill police on Wednesday were investigating two additional doxxing incidents after a former Democratic congressional intern was accused of posting the personal information of at least three Republican senators during last week's Judicial Committee hearing, sources said.

Fox News has learned that the latest alleged doxxing incidents involve at least two more senators, including Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky.

The probe comes amid the arrest of Jackson Cosko, 27, a democratic congressional intern, who earlier Wednesday was arrested for allegedly publishing the private information of at least three Republican senators during last week’s hearing about sexual assault claims against Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, authorities said. Paul called for an investigation at the time.

It was not clear whether Cosko was connected to the most recent doxxing probe involving Paul.

Personal information of Sens. Lindsey Graham, Mike Lee and Orrin Hatch were posted on their respective Wikipedia pages Thursday. All three have professed their belief that Kavanaugh is innocent of the claims brought against him by Ford, with Graham telling the federal judge "you've got nothing to apologize for" amid a fiery rant denouncing Democrats' handling of the allegations.

The intentional publication of the information was first caught by a Twitter bot that automatically tracks any changes made to Wikipedia entries from anyone located in the U.S. Congress and publicizes them on the social media site. The bot account later deleted the tweets because the edits contained personal information. According to the bot, whoever posted the information did so from a computer in the House of Representatives.

The home addresses of the senators appeared to be correct, though the phone numbers didn't appear to be entirely accurate. A "home" phone number listed for Graham appeared to direct callers to the Sexual Minority Youth Assistance League (SMYAL), a Washington D.C.-based advocacy group.

Cosko was most recently working as an unpaid intern for Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, D-Texas, senior congressional sources told Fox News. In the past, Coscko has worked with other Democratic lawmakers including Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., Sen. Maggie Hassan, D-N.H., and former Democratic Sen. Barbara Boxer of California.

Cosko was charged with burglary, threats in interstate communication, unauthorized access of a government computer, identity theft, second-degree burglary and unlawful entry.

Rand Paul’s Wife: “Our Family Has Experienced Violence At A Horrifying Level”

“I now keep a loaded gun by my bed”

Steve Watson | Infowars.com - October 4, 2018


Senator Rand Paul’s wife has spoken out in regards to the growing trend of harassment and actual physical violence against Republicans and conservatives, revealing that her family has experienced ‘horrific’ threats in recent months.

Kelley Paul penned an open letter to Democratic Senator Cory Booker, who previously encouraged activists to “get up in the face of some congresspeople”.

.@KelleyAshbyPaul: My husband, Rand Paul, and our family have suffered intimidation and threats https://t.co/SaaXKSbDRP

— CNN Opinion (@CNNOpinion) October 3, 2018

Mrs Paul’s letter comes after her husband was ‘doxxed’ and accosted by a leftist mob this week at an airport.

“Earlier this week, Rand was besieged in the airport by activists “getting up in his face,” as you, Senator Booker, encouraged them to do a few months ago.” Mrs Paul writes.

“Preventing someone from moving forward, thrusting your middle finger in their face, screaming vitriol — is this the way to express concern or enact change? Or does it only incite unstable people to violence, making them feel that assaulting a person is somehow politically justifiable?” she continues.

Mrs Paul called for Booker to retract his comments, and wrote that they are “all part of a broader effort to intimidate and threaten Republican members of Congress and their families.”

Mrs Paul, who has previously spoken about her fears over her husband being such a prominent voice in the liberty movement, notes that her family now has to have extra security patrols, noting that “someone just posted our home address, and Rand’s cell number, on the internet.”

“I now keep a loaded gun by my bed. Our security systems have had to be expanded. I have never felt this way in my life.” Mrs Paul further writes.

The letter also references the attack on Rand Paul last year, when an unstable neighbor attacked the Senator in his own yard, breaking six ribs and leaving him with lung damage and multiple bouts of pneumonia.

Mrs Paul points to the fact that Democrats, reporters, and leftist celebrities have all made jokes about the violent attack, in an effort to diminish the trend of leftists using violence to justify their political ideology.

Other Democrats, including Maxine Waters, have recently used language openly encouraging agitators to harass republicans.

Responding to Mrs Paul’s letter, Booker’s office suggested Wednesday night that “right-wing” outlets had taken his remarks out of context.

“If you listen to more than a deceptively-edited 18-second clip of the speech Ms. Paul references, Senator Booker’s enduring commitment to decency is clear,” spokesperson Jeff Giertz said.

“To think Senator Booker is somehow urging violent confrontation with these words requires you to ignore all context.” Giertz further claimed.

In recent weeks, there have been several incidents involving the ‘doxxing’ of Republicans and harassment by leftist mobs.

Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders, Florida Attorney General Pat Bondi, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY), DHS Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen and White House advisor Stephen Miller have been recently targeted by such angry mobs.

Last week, Senator Ted Cruz and his wife were hounded from a restaurant by a mob of unhinged leftists calling him a fascist, and decrying his support for Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh.

The group, which calls itself ‘Smash Racism DC’ vowed on Twitter, “You are not safe. We will find you.”

“This is a message to Ted Cruz, Bret Kavanaugh, Donald Trump and the rest of the racist, sexist, transphobic, and homophobic right-wing scum: You are not safe. We will find you. We will expose you. We will take from you the peace you have taken from so many others.” the tweet read.

Other Senators, including Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell have been hounded and threatened.

On Wednesday, U.S. Capitol Police arrested a former Democratic staffer suspected of posting the personal information of at least one United States senator to the internet following the Kavanaugh hearing.

Jackson A. Cosko, 27, was charged with making public restricted personal information, witness tampering, threats in interstate communications, unauthorized access of a government computer, identity theft, second-degree burglary and unlawful entry, according to a Capitol Police statement.

The home addresses and other personal information of Republican Sens. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina and Mike Lee and Orrin Hatch of Utah were posted to Wikipedia on Sept. 27 from an individual located in the House of Representatives.

Fox News notes that Cosko recently worked as an intern for Texas Democratic Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, and has also worked under Democratic Sen. Maggie Hassan of New Hampshire and former California Sen. Barbara Boxer.

Senator Graham has said that he has had people banging on his door at home since the information was made public.

Man Accused Of Doxxing GOP Senators Allegedly Threatened To Also Dox Their Children

10/04/2018
Scott Morefield | Reporter

The congressional aide accused of doxxing at least three GOP senators allegedly threatened to “leak it all” if a staffer who confronted him told anyone — including the health information and social security numbers of senators’ children.

Jackson Cosko, 27, who formerly worked for Democratic Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee and Democratic Senators Dianne Feinstein, Barbara Boxer and Maggie Hassan, was arrested on Wednesday and charged with a number of criminal offenses for allegedly posting to Wikipedia the home addresses and phone numbers of GOP Senators Mike Lee, Lindsey Graham and Orrin Hatch.

The former aide was reportedly confronted by a staffer after being caught using a computer in Hassan’s office that he “was not authorized to use,” according to Fox News.

According to Capitol Police Captain Jason Bell’s sworn statement, as reported by Fox News, Cosko walked out after being confronted by the witness, who then called police. The witness then reportedly received an email from “livefreeorpwn@gmail.com” several hours later that said, “If you tell anyone I will leak it all. Emails signal conversations gmails. Senators children’s health information and socials.”

Cosko has been charged with threats in interstate communication, publishing restricted personal information, witness tampering, identity theft, unauthorized access of a government computer, second-degree burglary and unlawful entry, according to Capitol Police.

Fox News reported that Cosko “was dressed in shorts, a t-shirt and tennis shoes and looked uneasy as Magistrate Judge Deborah Robinson detailed the seven charges against him, which carry the possibility of more than 20 years in prison.”

Several family members of Colorado Republican Sen. Cory Gardner have had their names and home addresses made public, and Gardner’s wife has received a “gruesome” video of a beheading.

A spokesman for Gardner has confirmed to The Daily Caller News Foundation that his family has been doxxed and graphic footage of a beheading was sent via text message to his wife. The Colorado senator — who has invoked furor from liberal activists for voting in favor of now-Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh — first revealed the doxxing to Fox News.

“The tweet is accurate,” Gardner press secretary Casey Contres told TheDCNF Sunday, also suggesting that his office may go into further detail at a later time. (RELATED: Capitol Police Arrest Ex-Democratic Staffer Suspected Of Doxxing GOP Senators)

Gardner is not the first Republican senator to be doxxed amid the Kavanaugh nomination frenzy.

Jackson A. Cosko, 27, a congressional staffer who most recently worked for Democratic Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, was arrested Wednesday for releasing the home addresses of Republican Sens. Lindsey Graham, Mike Lee and Orrin Hatch. Cosko has been charged with making public restricted personal information, witness tampering, threats in interstate communications, unauthorized access of a government computer, second-degree burglary, identity theft, and faces up to nearly 50 years in prison.

This is getting out of hand. And I don't see it getting better anytime soon.

Just imagine if the militia/patriot movement had acted like that during the Klintoon years. Gov officials would've been screaming bloody murder and demanding Janet do something.

The left should stop and think. What they do can also be done to them.

Threatening me, and actually being able to carry thru is two VERY different things. That is why they push gun control so hard as it is the one thing that can save us. Gun control is nothing more than their way of trying to seize power over EVERYBODY.

I haven't given up or buried anything. Lets quit talking and dance!

Can we all tell I am fed up with their bitching? If I had wanted to live that way I would have stayed married to the first wife!
