A horrific terror attack has shattered New Year’s celebrations in New Orleans. At least 15 Americans are dead. More than 30 others are wounded. The FBI has confirmed this was an ISIS-inspired attack.
The killer drove a rented Ford F-150 through crowds on Bourbon Street early Monday morning. He carried an ISIS flag. He had multiple bombs. The FBI says he didn’t act alone.
Strong Response from Conservative Leaders
“For those people who don’t believe in objective evil, all you have to do is look at what happened in our city early this morning,” declared Senator John Kennedy. The Louisiana Republican promised to “raise fresh hell” if federal authorities withhold details about the investigation.
The attacker wasn’t some foreign infiltrator. He was Shamsud-Din Jabbar – a U.S. Army veteran from Houston. FBI spokesperson Aletha Duncan confirmed the discovery of an ISIS flag mounted on his truck. This discovery led to an even more chilling revelation: multiple improvised explosive devices.
“The FBI is working to determine the subject’s associations and affiliations with terrorist organizations,” Duncan said. Additional explosive devices were found throughout the French Quarter.
American Lives Lost
The victims represent the heart of our nation. A former college football player who served his community. A young single mother who worked two jobs. They were celebrating the New Year when terror struck at 3:15 AM on a packed Bourbon Street.
This attack exposes critical vulnerabilities in America’s defenses. This week, President Biden acknowledged the killer posted ISIS-inspired videos before the attack. Yet our security systems failed to stop him.
“Catch these people,” demanded Senator Kennedy. “And then tell the American people the truth.”
Nationwide Security Response
The attack has triggered immediate security changes across America. In Washington D.C., authorities are strengthening protection for the January 20th presidential inauguration and former President Carter’s funeral next week.
Law enforcement sources have identified possible connections to other incidents. The FBI is investigating links between the New Orleans attack and Tuesday’s Tesla Cybertruck explosion at Trump Hotel in Las Vegas. Both vehicles were rented through the same mobile app.
A Nation Under Threat
Former U.S. Secret Service agent Robert McDonald warns Americans to stay vigilant. “If you go to the mall, if you go to church, if you go to the park, know how to take care of yourself,” he advised.
The hunt for accomplices continues. More explosive devices may remain hidden. Questions multiply about how an Army veteran turned against America.
Senator Kennedy’s warning resonates across our nation: “When it is appropriate and this investigation is complete, you will find out what happened and who was responsible, or I will raise fresh hell.”
This is an act of war. Our enemies are here. They’re organized. They’re targeting American families on American soil.
The time for weak leadership is over. The only question remains: How many more Americans must die before we secure our nation?
Key Takeaways:
- ISIS-inspired terror has reached American soil, with 15 dead and dozens wounded.
- FBI confirms multiple bombs and accomplices still at large.
- U.S. Army veteran turned terrorist raises alarming questions about domestic threats.
- Senator Kennedy demands full transparency as investigation reveals deeper conspiracy.
