America woke to horror this New Year’s Day as two apparent acts of terrorism unfolded hours apart.
A deadly truck attack on New Orleans’ iconic Bourbon Street left at least 12 dead and 35 injured, while a Cybertruck explosion outside the Trump International Hotel in Las Vegas injured seven and claimed the life of the suspect.
Preliminary investigations reveal that both vehicles involved in the New Orleans and Las Vegas attacks had been rented via the Turo platform.
The Gateway Pundit previously reported that a driver in a white pickup truck deliberately drove into a crowd of New Year’s revelers before exiting the vehicle and opening fire. Among the injured were two New Orleans police officers who bravely engaged the suspect in a shootout.
In response, Trump issued a statement condemning the attack and offering unflinching support to the victims and law enforcement:
“When I said that the criminals coming in are far worse than the criminals we have in our country, that statement was constantly refuted by Democrats and the Fake News Media, but it turned out to be true.
The crime rate in our country is at a level that nobody has ever seen before. 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!”
Just hours later, a Tesla Cybertruck exploded outside the Trump International Hotel in Las Vegas. Preliminary investigations suggest the Cybertruck was carrying fireworks or a bomb.
Authorities are treating the incident as a potential act of terrorism, with chilling parallels to the New Orleans attack.
Trump followed up with a scathing rebuke of Biden’s open-border policies and the government agencies’ misplaced priorities.
Trump called for immediate action from the CIA and a return to strong leadership:
“Our Country is a disaster, a laughing stock all over the World! This is what happens when you have OPEN BORDERS, with weak, ineffective, and virtually nonexistent leadership.
The DOJ, FBI, and Democrat state and local prosecutors have not done their job. They are incompetent and corrupt, having spent all of their waking hours unlawfully attacking their political opponent, ME, rather than focusing on protecting Americans from the outside and inside violent SCUM that has infiltrated all aspects of our government, and our Nation itself.
Democrats should be ashamed of themselves for allowing this to happen to our Country. The CIA must get involved, NOW, before it is too late.
The USA is breaking down – A violent erosion of Safety, National Security, and Democracy is taking place all across our Nation. Only strength and powerful leadership will stop it. See you on January 20th. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!”
In a follow-up post, Trump declared unequivocally:
“TRUMP WAS RIGHT ABOUT EVERYTHING!”
