JUST IN: Fox News Receives Envelope Containing White Powder, Prompting Hazmat Response

Fox News was sent an envelope containing an unknown white powder on Friday.

The floor was evacuated as authorities responded to the alarming situation, per a memo sent out to employees.

The memo says the substance was “determined to be non-hazardous” and the building has been given the all-clear.

In a statement, a Fox News Media spokesperson said, “An envelope containing a white powdery substance was opened at FOX News Media today. We immediately notified the NYPD’s Hazmat unit and the FDNY, both of which responded accordingly and our offices were given an all clear after it was determined that the substance was non-hazardous. We are very grateful for their swift attention to this incident.”

With all the coke he did, he probably still has connections!
Also, it's Faux reporting this.
I'm highly skeptical that this came from outside the building.

He spent a significant amount of time bashing The Propaganda Channel. I wouldn't put it past one of his whackadoodle attendees to pull a stunt like this, after he whipped up those kooks into a froth over them.

I still think it's probable this is an inside gig looking to build outrage against "the radical left".

I hope their entire evil, Russian-loving empire burns to the ground.
