As Twitchy reported earlier, a man named Shamsud Din Jabbar drove a pickup truck into a crowd celebrating New Year’s on Bourbon Street in New Orleans, Louisiana. An FBI agent earlier dismissed that it was a terrorist attack, and yet they found an ISIS flag inside the truck, along with IEDs.
The Associated Press is now reporting that surveillance video caught three men and a woman placing explosives in the French Quarter.
Guns and pipe bombs were also found in the vehicle, according to a Louisiana State Police intelligence bulletin obtained by The Associated Press. The devices, which were concealed within coolers, were wired for remote detonation, the bulletin said, and a corresponding remote control was discovered inside the vehicle.
It’s easy to find things if you’re the one that planted them.

And another epic fail from the Federal Bureau of Incompetency.
THIS is 2025!
This will be the year that a four year porous border will explode all around us with disastrous results. And when it does, be sure to thank a damn democRAT, every single one of them! With the rare exception of one or two, they all voted in lockstep unity to usher in the policies that enabled the enemy to work from within. This is going to be rough year ridding the nation of the vermin both foreign and domestic. I don’t know what is going to be worse, fighting terrorists or democRATz getting in the way
“Federal Bureau of Incompetency”
Really?
About as incompetent as the GESTAPO.
They are destroying our sense of security – helping (some of) us to feel isolated and afraid – atomizing society in other words.
“And you all know, security Is mortals’ chiefest enemy.”

…and here I am, working in a military/civilian food plant surrounded by Muslims, many of which may be subject to deportation after 1/20.
Huh.
…better see what my Life Insurance says about “Death Due To Acts Of Terrorism”.

The news conference was a riot. It started out with the old white lesbian police chief (who got fired as Oakland, CA police chief years ago), then the illiterate FBI SAIC, a black woman with a ring through nose. Then Senator Kennedy finally butted those idiots out of the way to say something coherent.
Again, why is every large city police force run by blacks and lesbians? What the ever lovin’ fuck is that all about?
Unexploded IEDs found after the main character has died in a hail of bullets? Sounds familiar.
TheMule, unfortunately Anne Kirkpatrick was the Spokane police chief about 10 or 15 years ago who was appointed as our police chief by our at the time lesbian or certainly bisexual Mayor. Once she left here after her failure in Spokane she went to Seattle and was booted out of there as well and then on to Oakland and now New Orleans. She is a harridan and a harpy and has proved to be nothing but an affirmative action hire and DEI proponent. She has been a total failure everywhere she has had any law enforcement leadership authority. And I was surprised when I read yesterday that she is now in New Orleans.
She retired from the Spokane police dept. in 2012 and subsequently went to Seattle and then to Oakland where she was fired before being appointed by Rahm Emmanuel in Chicago to another law enforcement leadership position etc. etc. She was born in 1959 and is 6 years younger than I am. Now she looks like an old washed up, very angry old lesbian who hopefully is at the end of screwing up every police dept. that she has ever worked for.
mostly peaceful ied-planters, just a handful of victims…
@Geoff,
I think you got the order backwards. She was in Chicago before Oakland. As I remember it, she was only in Oakland for maybe 6 – 8 months. This was back when Oakland was still “gentrifying” due to spillover from the San Jose & SF tech sectors. She got appointed by Mayor Libby Schaaf and got to claim the “First female Police Chief of Oakland” title. A few months later there was some raid in West Oakland and she apparently lied to the city council or something like that, and they fired her without cause which required Schaaf to vote to affirm. She then sued and took the city for a year’s pay plus legal fee’s.
Schaaf was of course a complete disaster for Oakland. Not only did crime spiral out of control, but she lost two of the city’s three sports teams. It doesn’t surprise me at all that she’s connected to this police chief… And a heads up for any Californians reading this, Schaaf announced she’s running for State Treasurer in ’26.

Geoff, while I was working as a cop, we got our “first black chief” in 1999. Didn’t take long to figure out he was a diversity hire as he ran our department into the ground. We also heard repeatedly from officers in his previous department that he was an incompetent Alpha Hotel and they were ecstatic to be rid of him. He finally got forced out when his hand-picked #2 turned on him by writing a 20+ page memo detailing his true nature. He went on to be chief at 3 or more other agencies, getting forced out of those after just 2 or 3 years each. Once a chief, always a chief, unless arrested…
Didn’t that NOLA Cief of Police also run over a couple of pedestrians in the French Quarter?!
*Chief
What ever happened with that?
I stand corrected, she was in Oakland thru 2020, but was fired for the events at the end of 2017. Too many news paywalls hide this stuff…

You better wake up and figure out that establishment Republicans are as bad or worse than Democrats
“The FBI announces”…..
And you trust them?
We dodged one hell of a bullet last year when our current socialist mayor Lisa Brown forced the old police chief out when before she even became mayor a yr. ago. One of the candidates for the new police chief was a black woman high ranking police official from Memphis, thank goodness she wasn’t chosen, and we got a halfway decent new white male police chief instead. Our mayor also forced out the old highly qualified white male fire chief and replaced him with a woman as our new fire chief. It’s too soon to tell if she’ll be a good fire chief or not or just another lousy affirmative action hire.
the nola chief sounds like former chief avocado in houston
