Presidential frontrunner Donald Trump’s son Donald Trump Jr. was sent a letter that reached his house on Monday, containing a white powder along with a bizarre threatening message.
The ranting writings claim, “Lee Harvey Oswald’s grandson must complete his contract,” and that Trump will soon become a citizen of the Soviet Union.
The end of the letter says, “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.”

Don Jr. told the Daily Caller, “It’s just become a little bit too commonplace that this sort of stuff happens. 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. 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,” he added.
TPUSA’s Charlie Kirk pointed out the media’s silence on the news and accurately noted the same outlets would lose their minds if a Biden family member was sent white powder with a death threat letter.
A Trump Jr. spokesperson said tests of the white substance came back inconclusive and that local officials did not believe it was deadly.
