FBI called to Kari Lake's headquarters after 'suspicious item' found in mail

https://abcnews.go.com/amp/Politics/fbi-called-kari-lakes-headquarters-suspicious-item-found/story?id=92769145

A campaign staffer for Kari Lake, the Republican candidate for governor in Arizona, allegedly opened an envelope holding a suspicious white substance delivered to Lake’s campaign headquarters in Phoenix, her campaign told ABC News.

"Yesterday, a member of the Kari Lake staff opened an envelope delivered to our campaign office that contained suspicious white powder. It was one of two envelopes that were confiscated by law enforcement and sent to professionals at Quantico for examination, and we are awaiting details," Lake campaign spokesperson Colton Duncan told ABC News in a statement. He added that the staff member is currently under medical supervision.

UPDATE: FBI-Phoenix tells ABC News that no items related to this matter were taken to the FBI lab at Quantico, as Kari Lake’s spokesperson claimed in a statement earlier today.

Turned out to be nothing. Lake accused Hobbs of setting it up. That didn’t go far. Now the “white powder” thing appears.
