At 3:16 AM on January 1, as revelers in New Orleans were still soaking in the joy and marinating in the alcoholic vapors of the freshly birthed year of 2025, a black man driving a recently rented white Ford F-150 Lightning pickup truck barreled over Bourbon Street pedestrians for three blocks. After crashing into a hydraulic lift, he exited the truck and began shooting, only to be shot dead in a gun battle with police. Counting the fourteen hapless celebrants he’d slaughtered by blunt-force trauma with his truck, he would be the fifteenth fatality.

A few hours later in what is technically the unincorporated town of Paradise, NV, a recently rented Tesla Cybertruck pulled up outside the front entrance to the Trump International Hotel Las Vegas. Within seconds, the vehicle exploded. The white driver would be the only fatality, but as of this writing, the FBI is claiming he died of a self-inflicted gunshot to the head moments before the explosion. Disputes linger over whether the deceased drove the Cybertruck or it drove him…whether he shot himself before the explosion or was killed in the blast…and even whether the “deceased” might still be alive.
As info and disinfo began trickling out about the suspects, a picture formed of two men—one white and one black—who may have acted alone and almost certainly didn’t collaborate, but both of whom might have been unwitting Deep State pawns used to stir chaos just weeks before Trump’s inauguration. Since they are both presumed dead, they won’t be able to confirm any posthumously released statements and messages they allegedly made regarding their political motivations.
The New Orleans truck-rammer, one Samshud-din Jabbar, appears to have been a Texas-born Southern Negro with no Arabic blood. Despite the perp’s comically Arabic name, his father was born as Masterson Young but changed it to “Abdal Rahim Jabbar” after converting to Islam and before getting married. Most of his family, despite being saddled with the surname “Jabbar,” continued worshiping at a Baptist church. In the FBI-provided passport photo, Jabbar looks lighter-skinned and more Islamically bearded than he did in this 2013 pic in the Army or this later promo video as a property manager.
An unnamed Army spokesman told Click2Houston that Jabbar served in the U.S. Army from 2007 to 2015 in IT and HR, was deployed in Afghanistan for 11 months ending in January 2010, and later resumed working for the Army Reserve ending in 2020.
As 2024 drew to a close, Jabbar had been divorced three times, was sinking in a quagmire of alimony and child-support payments, and was living alone in a “squalid” Houston trailer home, surrounded by roaming goats, cats, and chickens in a predominantly Muslim neighborhood.
The FBI says that the night before the Bourbon Street massacre while driving from Houston to New Orleans, Jabbar posted five Facebook videos addressed to his family. In these videos, he initially claimed that he intended to kill his family members but fretted that doing so would divert the media’s attention away from “the war between the believers and the disbelievers.” The recently “radicalized” Jabbar also claimed to have “joined” ISIS over the summer—as if that’s possible, and as if ISIS still exists in any meaningful way.
Central to the initial narrative was the allegation that Jabbar’s truck had an unfurled ISIS flag on a pole on the hitch that was eventually placed on the ground and photographed once daylight came. The feds say he also placed explosives in coolers near Bourbon Street that never detonated.
The feds also say that Matthew Alan Livelsberger, the 37-year-old suspect in the Trump International Las Vegas Tesla Cybertruck Explosion, had placed “a detonation system composed of fireworks, gas tanks, and camping fuel” in his rented vehicle’s cargo bed.
Livelsberger, an active-duty Green Beret on leave from his base in Germany, was reportedly “just months away from completing the 20 years of service required for a full retirement package.” Like Jabbar, he’d served in the Afghan War.
Also like Jabbar, Livelsberger was distraught by family estrangement problems. He divorced his wild-eyed first wife in 2018. His second wife, whom he married in 2022 and had a baby girl with about eight months ago, was said to have left him “recently” over suspicions of infidelity.
