FBI Probes Suspicious Election Packages in 15 States

The FBI and U.S. Postal Inspection Service are investigating a series of suspicious packages containing a white powdery substance sent to election officials in at least 15 states, including Kentucky, Indiana, Mississippi, and Ohio. Preliminary tests have determined the substance is non-hazardous, with some packages confirmed to contain flour. The envelopes, often marked from the 'United States Traitor Elimination Army,' have triggered evacuations and heightened security measures as early voting begins. This marks the second instance of such threats within a year, raising concerns about election security amid an already tense political climate. Authorities are working to identify the sender and the motive behind these packages.
