New Orleans mourns as Bourbon Street reopens after truck-ramming attack

Our plane was full of Notre Dame and Georgia fans that were very sad to have to be leaving the city without watching the football game,

I know that the Superdome probably be the safest place in in the country tonight, and I have all confidence that people will get to go to the game and get home safely,

Beyond his professional achievements, Billy will be fondly remembered for his unwavering work ethic, positive attitude, and kindness. He was a true asset to the Audacy team, and his contributions and presence will be deeply missed,

Don’t forget that the public is part of the solution because a lot of times, when these individuals, whether they’re terrorists or violent offenders or mass shooters, usually there’s something called leakage, where they give some sort of indication that they’re going to do something before they actually do it,

It’s more about the resilience of Americans, and I think both teams will be playing with a different mindset tonight."

I think there was a lot of activity going on in the Middle East. A lot of these terrorist groups that people thought were gone, which frankly, they were. A lot of them were under the Trump administration. And then after the upheaval in the Middle East, I think it almost reignited a lot of activity and chatter,

But when Donald Trump sees the type of terrorist attack that occurred in New Orleans, he doesn’t remember Timothy McVeigh and, instead, he blames the criminals that he imagines are crossing the southern border,

What’s vexing about this is we don’t have a great sense of the scope of the problem,

Look, I love President Trump. But sadly, a lot of these things are going to come to fruition under President Trump because these are people that are sitting here quietly. We never know when they're going to implode. So all these people that came across the border, I don't know when they're going to act out, just like on 9/11. You don't know the day that they're going to be operating, the day that they are going to decide this is when we're going to do it,

A lot of the individuals who commit these acts are primarily veterans, and often honorably discharged,

No one who has ever crossed the southern border, in the history of the existence of the southern border, has killed more people in this country than Timothy McVeigh, who was born in Lockport, New York, the northwest part of the state, into a White Roman Catholic American family with roots in this country that go back farther than Donald Trump’s roots in this country,

We cannot let violent criminals win, we cannot live in fear. But you also have to be aware of your surroundings and listen to your gut. And sadly, I hate to say this, but this is not going to stop,

He was a great soldier, someone who showed discipline and dedication,

Timothy McVeigh parked a truck outside that building loaded with explosives in an act of homegrown American terrorism,

It's surreal. We (Chris and his wife) walked down here, and you can still see it (the Cybertruck) was on fire. A lot of smoke was going inside…it was scary,

Ms. Perez was the first body I'd seen, and, I mean, it broke me when they showed that picture of her and her son, because that wasn't the woman I'd seen,

They threw, you know, every roadblock that they could in saying that all veterans are being called extremists by the Biden administration,

He was a good, humble kid,

I'm going to try,

There has been a lot of activity leading up to this moment. I would say for our country, beginning October 7th, from a terrorism perspective, that's when things definitely changed,

It’s not lost on us that it’s in front of the Trump building, that it’s a Tesla vehicle, but we don’t have information at this point that definitively tells us or suggests it was because of this particular ideology,

We care about each one of the lives that were lost in this city,

The simple fact is, this country has suffered more deadly terrorism at the hands of American-born citizens who are veterans of the United States military than people who have crossed into this country at the southern border,

I actually had already taken my dogs out to go to the bathroom, and then I come back to my hotel. I fed them and I said, 'okay, let's go back outside.' I just missed the guy. At 8:48, I mean, I walk right through that door with my dogs a couple of times a day,

What is safe today in the world? What is safe in America? What is safe anywhere today? But we’re doing the best we can,

In the morning, when I woke up, you know, I heard something…it sounded like people were cleaning the windows. And I heard this popping sound. And I said, ‘what the heck is that?’ And then all of a sudden, I heard all these police sirens and everything. So I looked at the window and I saw smoke coming out of a window because we were on the corner room upstairs and 23rd floor,

Nikyra, she was the one to the left a little further down from Ms. Perez — a very small girl,

We're dealing with the adversaries within our country as well. But in the next few weeks, the next couple of months, we will have many big, large events that are going to be going down. And those are events where people that want to wreak havoc and hurt others, they do it to get attention. They want to cause the most destruction they possibly can,

I know with this music, it heals. It transforms the feelings that we’re going through into something better,

We want to talk to anyone who was in the French quarter on New Year's Eve or early on New Year's Day,

Let me be clear about this point – this was an act of terrorism,

The Cybertruck bomber had to stop 8 times to charge his truck. No wonder he killed himself."

Our working theory now is that the fire started after Jabar was already deceased,

We'll be taking over the investigative lead for this event. This is not a terrorist event,

There's names and faces with these victims now, these innocent people full of life — just gone,

He was 100% inspired by ISIS,

We don't have any evidence that they were in the same province in Afghanistan, the same location or the same unit,

She didn't look like a human,

Jabbar explains he originally planned to harm his family and friends, but was concerned the news headlines would not focus on the, quote, ‘war between the believers and the disbelievers,’

We are heartbroken by the violence perpetrated in New Orleans and Las Vegas, and our prayers are with the victims and families,

They assessed he had a remote detonator in his vehicle to set off those two ice chests,

The question about whether it's being investigated globally, absolutely – like I said, we're running down investigative leads around the world,

Additionally, he stated he had joined ISIS before this summer,

IDA stands behind the rigor of the analysis and remains confident that the findings, including with regard to the prevalence of violent extremism in the DoD, were solidly based on the best data available at the time the work was conducted,

We want to speak to them as witnesses and want to know what they saw and when,

Sadly, we're going to continue to see these types of events occurring, whether they are ISIS-inspired or radical Islamic terrorist events or if they're mass shootings or if they're the CEO of UnitedHealthcare individual that just has lost his mind,

I could see seven bodies still laying in the in the street right outside my window,

They started having conversations about how you’re smearing the military when you even talk about extremism, which is most evident with Hegseth saying that rooting out extremists is essentially a scam, or some kind of woke,

There were positives, introducing a tattoo database to screen recruits, and tightening up the security clearance process. They created a definition for extremism, and regulations in the army, marines and navy to ban fundraising for, or liking extremist groups on social media,

In order to protect Americans from evil, you have to crush it,

People take so much for granted as far as how we treat each other,

It is very clear from the evidence that if you want to worry about

It's just worth noting that sometimes military service brings people who are like-minded together,

We tracked his movements through the Tesla charging stations to Monument Colorado on December 30, on the 31st of December the truck was charged in Trinidad Colorado, Las Vegas New Mexico and Albuquerque and Gallup New Mexico,
