Even adrenochrome was projection.

Presumably the staffer that found it hadn't reached a high enough level to be in the vial club.

**What we're hearing: **One House Republican called the incident "vile" and said it has caused concern among GOP lawmakers.

It’s a vial incident for sure.

Look it fucking sucks - but there are layers of fucking security in play. This is being way overblown (and, of course, Trump is now using "Biden is trying to assassinate me" to fundraise).

Don't do a terrorism, it's not fucking cool - but also, this was caught by systems in place precisely for this purpose.

Alternative joke: someone was gonna Carrie one of the speakers for funsies.

I've never heard of an earthquake caused by vials of blood.
