Donald Trump Jr. received a letter containing a death threat and white powder, according to an exclusive report from the Daily Caller.
“It’s just become a little bit too commonplace that this sort of stuff happens,” Trump Jr. shared with the outlet. “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.”
“It doesn’t matter what your politics are, this type of crap is unacceptable,” Donald Trumpl 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.”
A hazmat unit arrived at the scene to investigate the matter.
The Daily Caller received an image of the death threat, which read, in part, “Again, how many lives will be ruined before the psychopath Donald is silenced? Lee Harvey Oswald’s grandson must complete his contract.”
“It’s time for Mary to hear that Donald and his family have gone up in smoke when the ‘Trump’ plane dives into the Atlantic Ocean,” the letter concluded.
A spokesperson for Trump Jr. said 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.”
Donald Trump Jr. also received a letter containing white powder in 2018.
In June 2023, one hundred envelopes containing “mysterious white powder” were mailed to Donald Trump, Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, and numerous conservative lawmakers and officials from Kansas.
The letters with the mysterious substance were intercepted by the U.S. Postal Service before reaching Trump and Justice Clarence Thomas.
