Cnn Bomb Scare

US President Donald Trump on Friday lashed out at CNN for blaming him for the current spate of bombs being sent to present and former high-ranking officials including his predecessor Barack Obama, saying it is "funny" how he is being criticised by the cable news network and others.

Twelve pipe bombs and suspicious packages have been mailed to top Democrats including Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, news channel CNN and other prominent critics of US President Donald Trump since Monday.

Former Vice President Joe Biden on Thursday (October 25) said he hopes that the recent spate of mailed pipe bombs, is a wake up call. "This division, this hatred, is ugliness. It has to end," he said.

Federal agents searched a U.S. mail facility near Miami on Thursday night racing to find who sent 10 pipe bombs to prominent Democrats and critics of U.S. President Donald Trump as leads pointed to Florida as the possible origin of the packages.

The investigation into 10 pipe bombs sent to high-profile Democrats and critics of U.S. President Donald Trump is focussing on leads in Florida, a federal law enforcement source said on Thursday while another source said investigators believe the devices' design came from the internet.

Police are investigating a suspicious package addressed to actor Robert De Niro in New York, news reports said Thursday.

The White House has accused the CNN of dividing America as the news network criticised the Trump administration for a "total and complete lack of understanding" of the seriousness of its attacks on the media following the discovery of an explosive package sent to CNN's New York City office.

In the home stretch of the fall campaign, President Donald Trump has called Democrats "evil" and argued they are "too dangerous to govern." He has denounced Barack Obama's presidency and demonized former secretary of state Hillary Clinton, inspiring chants at his rallies of "Lock her up!"
