Within the early hours of New Yr’s Day, a person plowed a pickup truck right into a crowd of individuals on Bourbon Avenue in New Orleans, Louisiana, killing 14 harmless individuals and injuring dozens extra. Among the many injured are two heroic law enforcement officials who traded gunfire with the suspect, who’s now deceased. Whereas the information surrounding this unconscionable assault proceed to emerge, what we all know is deeply troubling: the suspect was in possession of weapons, improvised explosive units, and an ISIS flag. This horrific incident constitutes a blatant act of terror on the American homeland, and the individuals of our nation should know whether or not federal regulation enforcement companies can sufficiently forestall and reply to such incidents,” Blackburn wrote.
Trump ordered the FBI to protect all information associated to the DEI workplace that was quietly shut down.
“We demand that the FBI protect and retain all information, paperwork, and data on the now closing DEI Workplace—By no means ought to have been opened and, if it was, ought to have closed way back. Why is it that they’re closing in the future earlier than the Inauguration of a brand new Administration? The reason being, CORRUPTION!”
