The development comes after a package addressed to Mnuchin's Los Angeles home was found containing horse manure on Saturday.

An individual claiming to be responsible for the package compared his actions to the work of Jesus in an interview with southern California public radio station KPCC on Monday.

“What I did, I would like to compare to what Jesus did when he went into the temple and overturned the tables of the money-changers, who were exploiting the people financially in the name of religion," Robby Strong said.

“I feel like that’s what the GOP has done to the American people,” he said.
