Horse manure mailed to Mnuchin: report

A package addressed to Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin’s home in Los Angeles contained horse manure, according to NBC Los Angeles.

The package was reportedly delivered to a neighbor’s house in Bel-Air on Saturday, along with a Christmas card referencing Mnuchin and President Trump, as well as a negative comment about the Republican-backed tax plan. 

{mosads}Authorities, including the Secret Service and a Los Angeles Police Department bomb squad, responded, according to the TV station. 

Police discovered the package contained horse manure after unwrapping it, and investigators cleared the package around 8 p.m., the report says.

The president signed a sweeping Republican tax-reform package on Friday, marking his administration’s first major legislative win. 

As Treasury secretary, Mnuchin ardently defended the plan, which is deeply unpopular with the public, according to various polls.
