“The FBI is aware of the offensive and racist text messages sent to individuals around the country and is in contact with the Justice Department and other federal authorities on the matter,” the FBI said on Thursday.

Brian Hughes, of the Trump campaign, told NBC that they would take legal action “if we can find the origin of these messages which promote this kind of ugliness in our name.

“President Trump built a diverse and broad coalition of support, with voters of all races and backgrounds,” he said in a statement to NBC. “The result was a landslide victory for his commonsense mandate for change. This will result in a second term that is beneficial to every working man and woman in our nation.”

Sorry. I should’ve tagged for sarcasm.

Trump will be sworn in on January 20th.

... and if not in the second term, we'll change the term limits to enable us to best follow this up.

What the FBI isn’t saying is they’re the ones who gave the suspects the list.
