So this is MSM quoting Trump, I would like some independent verification personally… MOO

Exactly.

 

[BrianJohnson]

I know the DM is allowed media, but I'd need a different source to believe this.
Possibly a different source from Trump too.

MOO JMO

Trump will have been heavily briefed by the FBI/police as part of the transition to him taking over, he will know the name of the suspect

 

[Leve]

Suspect jumped out of truck and opened fire. He was shot by LE. Apparently there were also viable explosives in vehicle. I'm also reading truck passed over southern border 2 days ago at Eagle Pass.

I need a different source to believe this. X and the DailyMail are not reliable.

Biden, Trump respond to deadly New Year's Day attack in New Orleans

President Biden said there is "no justification" for the "horrific" attack early New Year's Day in New Orleans that left at least 10 people dead and dozens more injured.

abcnews.go.com

President-elect Donald Trump also weighed in on the tragedy, calling it "pure evil."

"Our hearts are with all of the innocent victims and their loved ones, including the brave officers of the New Orleans Police Department. The Trump Administration will fully support the City of New Orleans as they investigate and recover from this act of pure evil!" Trump wrote in a statement on his conservative social media platform.

I think knowing about the ISIS flag would be sufficient to suspect foreign involvement. Which doesn't mean that the suspect could not have lived in the US for years.

 

[5ofineed5aladder]

Sources told Fox News that the suspect who killed at least 10 and injured over 30 New Orleans partygoers drove his truck across the border through Eagle Pass, Texas, just two days ago.

Well that's BS considering it wasnt his truck. If he was illegally here, why would he cross back into mexico after renting the truck. Wouldnt that be a huge risk

You can rent trucks/cars then drive them thousands of miles and drop them off at a different rental. If it's close to the Texas border I'm guessing they allow the trucks to cross the border. So the guy could have rented a truck that already crossed

 

[Rosydecember]

Could they have meant crossed the border meaning…. Crossing state borders into Louisiana?

 

[indicolite22]

The recent Christmas market attacker in Germany had also lived in the country for a long time before committing to terrorism.

Fox News has updated their headline and article saying that the truck crossed the border in November.

Suspect identified after driver kills ten, injures dozens in Bourbon Street truck attack

At least 10 people are dead after a driver plowed a car into a crowd on Bourbon Street in New Orleans and then exited the vehicle and fired a weapon, according to police.

www.foxnews.com

Unless he rented that truck all the way back in November, he wasn't the one driving it during the time period

 

[indicolite22]

If he is US-born, wouldn't he be considered home-grown rather than foreign?

Yeah, I updated my post with two paragraphs quoted from the article, where Fox said he was not believed to be the person who crossed the border in November.

 

[red carpet fiber]

If the vehicle was being rented out, who knows how many people have driven it (including across the border) in the past year and a half (it's a 2023 model).

 

[Elley Mae]

I’m glad he’s dead, no jail, no appeals, saves tax payers lots.

Authorities are conducting a sweep of the Superdome as a precaution. The Sugar Bowl is still on schedule to be played tonight, as the New Orleans police chief suggested this morning.Officials are expected to hold their next briefing at 1 p.m. CT.

I think so. Maybe a blend, though, since he seems to have been "potentially" radicalized by ISIS terrorists.

True. How do you legislate against harmful religious indoctrination of your citizens?
