More bombs sent to prominent Trump critics

The former Vice President Joe Biden and the actor Robert De Niro are the latest high-profile critics of President Trump to be targeted by suspicious parcels.

They join a list of targets that includes former president Barack Obama and former Democrat presidential candidate Hillary Clinton. The President tweeted that a large part of the anger in American society was down to the behaviour of the Mainstream Media, while some of his supporters have pointed the finger of blame at the Democrats.

His critics, meanwhile, accuse him of inflammatory rhetoric.
