'AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA'! Andrew Cuomo's 'suspicious package' just blew up in his face

Did you hear? Andrew Cuomo was also the recipient of a “suspicious package” today.

Was the package sent to Cuomo officially an "explosive device?" I haven't seen it confirmed as connected, but things move really fast.

Well, we can all rest easy now: Andrew Cuomo is just fine. Because the “suspicious package” was only exploding with … information:

An NYPD official says the “suspicious package” at Cuomo’s office was in fact just an informational package containing literature, per @soniamoghe. https://t.co/OZHihNXQTk

The suspicious package sent to Andrew Cuomo appears to have been a false red flag. What a bizarre twist:

His office originally denied reports of receiving a suspicious package.

Then Cuomo says he received a "device."

NYPD now says the package was just an informational packet.

The sequence of events:

1. Cuomo’s office denied reports it had received a suspicious package.
2. Cuomo announced on air that his office had received a “device.”
3. NYPD said the package in question was simply literature.

But lest there be any doubt, Cuomo’s still stunning and brave:

Gov. Cuomo says the package sent to his office has been removed, adding, “The building is safe. I’m going to go up and continue with my day, and that’s what every New Yorker should do.” pic.twitter.com/MQBYdOpvSl

So very brave.

Cuomo feeling left out a bit.
