Lockdown at RNC headquarters after vials of blood addressed to Trump discovered

The Republican National Committee headquarters in Washington DC was thrown into chaos as vials of blood were sent to former president Donald Trump, prompting a lockdown and a Hazmat team response.

US Capitol Police were alerted to a “suspicious package” at the Republican party’s building early Wednesday morning. The package, addressed to Mr. Trump, contained two vials of blood, leading to the evacuation of the building and surrounding area.

After a thorough investigation, the Hazardous Incident Response Division gave the all-clear a few hours later, stating that no one was injured in the incident. The source of the package and its contents are currently under investigation.

This unsettling event comes at a time when Mr. Trump has taken charge of the RNC, with a new leadership team filled with his allies and family members. The upcoming Republican National Convention in Milwaukee is expected to be a contentious event, with protests anticipated.

As the investigation continues, the RNC has yet to comment on the incident. With Mr. Trump poised to be announced as the party’s nominee for the third election cycle in a row, the security concerns surrounding the event are heightened.

The presence of blood vials at the RNC headquarters has raised questions and concerns about the safety and security of political figures in the current climate of heightened tensions and political division.
