*In the podcast I talk about a foiled attack on the capital in 2011. I say they tried to kill me. Upon reflection I was a Chief of Staff at the time for a Member of Congress so in all likelihood I was there but I can’t say I was there on that day 100%.* On January 1, 2025, two terror attacks shook the United States, leaving me—and many others—questioning the official narrative. The first attack happened in New Orleans, where a former U.S. Army soldier drove an electric Ford truck down Bourbon Street, shooting at police officers, detonating IEDs, and tragically killing 14 people and injuring 35. The second attack occurred in Las Vegas, where a decorated U.S. Navy Master Sergeant drove a Tesla Cybertruck into the Trump Hotel, detonated IEDs, and then ended his own life. Both attacks took place just 15 minutes apart (adjusting for time zone differences). When I started digging into the details, I couldn’t ignore the suspicious similarities that suggest these weren’t random, unrelated acts: Both attackers were former military personnel who served at Fort Bragg. Both attackers used electric vehicles. Both attackers rented their vehicles using the same app. Both attacks involved IEDs. The timing of the attacks was eerily close. The Problem of Classified Information Here’s what’s really frustrating: the government has classified key details about these attacks. That means we, the public, don’t have access to information we have every right to know. Transparency is critical, especially in situations like this. Without it, we’re left to wonder if there’s something they’re trying to hide. I believe this lack of openness fuels distrust and suspicion. When the government keeps us in the dark, it’s no surprise that people start to question whether we’re being told the whole story—or if we’re even getting part of it. Echoes of Past Terrorist Attacks If you look at past domestic terror attacks involving IEDs, one thing stands out: they’re almost always isolated incidents. Think about the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing, the 1993 World Trade Center bombing, the 2010 Times Square bombing attempt, or the 2018 Austin serial bombings. None of these involved coordinated attacks happening at the same time. What happened in New Orleans and Las Vegas on New Year’s Day 2025 is unique in American history. The fact that these two attacks happened so close together makes me wonder if this was a coordinated effort. The Electric Vehicle Connection Here’s another detail that doesn’t feel like a coincidence: both attackers used electric vehicles. I think this could be a trial run for larger-scale terror operations. Electric vehicles are loaded with technology—autonomous driving capabilities, GPS systems, and microcomputers that can be programmed. It’s not hard to imagine how these features could be exploited. In fact, I suspect the attackers might have used secondary detonation methods because cellular signals were blocked, which would align with the use of pre-programmed tech in the vehicles. This should serve as a wake-up call. Technology like this can be a powerful tool for good, but it’s clear it can also be weaponized. Security Failures and the Need for Answers One question that’s been haunting me is how these attacks were allowed to happen in the first place. Take Bourbon Street in New Orleans, for example. Why weren’t there staggered barricades in place? That’s standard protocol in high-security areas, and their absence is a glaring oversight. These kinds of security failures make me wonder: was this incompetence, or something worse? Either way, we need answers. What We Need to Do I’m calling for transparency and accountability. We deserve to know the truth about what happened and why. These attacks shouldn’t be swept under the rug, and I’m not going to let them be. Here’s what needs to happen: The government must declassify and release all relevant information about these attacks. Vulnerable areas need better security measures to prevent somet
