The NRCC left suspicious looking boxes outside Dem. offices after vote (capitol police called)

NRCC is the National Republican Congressional Committee

Apparently the NRCC sent some frontline Democrats “moving boxes” after the impeachment vote, but because the boxes looked like suspicious packages, Capitol Police were called to investigate. So that’s neat.

(the police being called), but also brings to mind incidents like the pipe bombs being delivered in boxes to high ranking Democrats by the crazy Trump supporter.

This stunt was a major fail.

So there's that. Maybe history will repeat itself. NRCC minions should at least be admonished & forced to attend Security Training sessions after hours.
