This is sad. At around 1:00 pm this afternoon, the Houston Fire Dept. tweeted that the powder had tested negative for hazardous substances. Either somebody is drinking too much, or it's Russians trying to influence the election. Either way, it happened to Rafael back in 2016 too. Trump's friends, maybe(Russians).
Keep reaching.
