THE FBI NOW HAS ITS VERY OWN INCOMPETENT KARINE JEAN-PIERRE
And just as incompetent as Presidential Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, we find FBI Spokesperson Alathea Duncan, the Assistant Special Agent in Charge of the FBI’s New Orleans field office, at the podium confidently declaring the mass casualty event in New Orleans was not a terrorist attack.
“As Chief Kirkpatrick said we'll be taking over the investigative lead for this event. This is not a terrorist event. What it is right now is they're improvised explosive devices that was found and we are working on confirming if this is a viable device or not.”
You have to be dumb, stupid, and blind not to notice the dead, dying, and injured who were deliberately hit by a truck whose heavily armed driver dressed in camo emerged shooting – and the large ISIS flag on the back of the vehicle – and not conclude this was not only a terrorist attack, but an Islamic terrorist attack. That is, unless you are black, wearing braids, have a gold stud in your nose, and are preoccupied with political correctness and DEI.
FBI Spokesperson Alathea Duncan later went on to reverse her initial assessment…
The FBI is the lead investigative agency and we're investigating this as an attack of terrorism along with our partners.
Today at approximately 3.15 a.m. Central Standard Time, an individual drove a pickup truck into a crowd on Bourbon Street in New Orleans, killing at least 10 individuals and injuring dozens more. After hitting the crowd, he exited the vehicle and fired upon local law enforcement.
Law enforcement returned fire and the subject was pronounced deceased at the scene. Two law enforcement officers were injured and transported to local hospitals. The subject has been identified as 42-year-old Samsud Dim Jabbar, a U.S.-born citizen from Texas.
He was driving a Ford pickup truck, which appears to be rented, and we are working to confirm how the subject became in possession of this vehicle. An ISIS flag was located on the trailer hitch of the vehicle and the FBI is working to determine the subject's potential associations and affiliations with terrorist organizations. Weapons and potential improvised explosive devices, IEDs, were located in the subject's vehicle.
Other potential IEDs were also located in the French Quarter. As of now, two IEDs have been found and rendered safe. The FBI Special Agent Bomb Technicians, as well as our local law enforcement partners, have been working to determine if any of these devices are viable and they'll work to render those devices safe.
The FBI, we are working with our partners to investigate this as an act of terrorism. We're aggressively running down all the leads to identify the possible subject's associates. We're working to ensure that there is no further threat.
We do not believe that Jabbar was solely responsible. We are aggressively running down every lead, including those of his known associates. That's why we need the public's help.
We are asking if anybody has any interactions with Samsud Dim Jabbar in the last 72 hours, that you contact us. The FBI is asking the public's help. We're asking anyone who has information, video, or pictures to provide it to the FBI.
We have set up a digital tip line, as well as our 1-800 number, 1-800-CALL-FBI. Please provide us with any information that can assist us in this investigation.
Still no mention of Islamic terrorism!
However, the FBI updated the story to claim that no other suspects were involved in planting the bombs in New Orleans.
It appears that the Houston, Texas, Houston Masjid Bilal Mosque is directing its members to shun law enforcement and contact CAIR (Council on American-Islamic Relations), a known supporter of terrorism.
What To Know
In an Instagram story posted after the attacker's identity was announced, the Masjid Bilal condemned what it said were "terrible acts." It added, "If approached by the FBI and a response is necessary, please refer to CAIR and ISGH," referring to the Council on American-Islamic Relations and the Islamic Society of Greater Houston. <Source: Newsweek>
Bottom line…
How is it that the media arrived at the terrorist's home hours before the FBI?
Where is the actual Special Agent in Charge of the New Orleans office, and how did this fool become the agency’s spokesperson?
How are we responding to the threat of Islamic terror cells within the United States and the ongoing radicalization of American prisoners and former soldiers without domestic surveillance that abridges constitutional rights?
How does Congress effectively conduct oversight on our nation’s intelligence and law enforcement agencies and begin holding individuals within those agencies accountable for their wrongful behavior?
And for those who celebrated the attack by marching in New York, they should be rounded up and deported if they are not American citizens.
We are so screwed.
