Authorities said Thursday they have found "no definitive link" between the New Orleans attack on New Year's Day and the explosion in a Tesla Cybertruck outside a Trump hotel in Las Vegas.
“At this point, there is no definitive link between the attack here in New Orleans and the one in Las Vegas,” Chris Raia, the deputy assistant director of the FBI’s counterterrorism division, said at a news conference in New Orleans.

It took four bozos to write that article from NBC News.

One to gather the facts, and the other three to fit the story to an acceptable narrative?
Treason should NOT be allowed, even if they murder Americans and children.
FBI lied about there not being any ISis totems at the New Orleans attack.
Considering the FBI track record of grooming attackers lately I don’t believe anything they say.
Yes. Talking on the cell phone and then setting up for the shooting. To whom was he speaking? And why?

What did the FBI Really Know before Terrorist Attack in Garland, Texas?
WASHINGTON – Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley today is calling on the FBI to explain its advance knowledge and any plan to thwart a 2015 terrorist attack in Garland, Texas. Grassley’s questions follow recent media reports revealing that an undercover FBI agent was not only in communication with the terrorists weeks before the attack, but the agent was also at the scene taking pictures of the terrorists seconds before the shooting began. However, in 2015, FBI Director James Comey indicated that the Bureau was not aware of the perpetrator’s plans to travel to Garland or of any plans to carry out the attack. According to news reports, an undercover FBI agent had been in communication over social media with one of the terrorists, Elton Simpson, in the weeks leading up to the terrorist attack. In one of the communications with the undercover agent, Simpson shared a link to information about the “Draw Prophet Muhamad Contest,” to which the agent replied, “Tear up Texas.” Simpson replied, “Bro, you don’t have to say that,” and “No need to be direct,” and referenced a terrorist attack in Paris. The day of the attack, the agent was in a car directly behind Simpson and his associate, Nadir Soofi, near a police checkpoint. The agent was taking photos of the terrorists just before the shooting began. A local police officer fatally shot both terrorists. Despite the communications between the agent and Simpson, as well as court filings and news reports that reveal the agent was present at the scene during the attack, Comey told reporters in the days following the attack that the FBI had no reason to believe that Simpson intended to attack the event and was unaware of any plans to travel to Garland. In a letter today to Comey, Grassley is seeking details on the circumstances surrounding the FBI’s investigation into Simpson, including when it became aware that the agent was traveling to Garland, whether it suspected Simpson of planning an attack and what plans were in place to intervene.
It took great discipline for them to wait until AFTER the attacks to release the press release.
Yet. Keep looking.
Exactly. They covered up the Isis flag as soon as they arrived.
I knew it was the world getting back to normal when I saw a clickbait today:
FBI Concludes Suspect Acted Alone.
I joked yesterday “The FBI is supposed to say he acted alone.”
So they changed it.
Exactly.
RE: FBI never lies....
Best joke of the day so far. 😂
Islam might not be involved at all.
Could just be Democrat shenanigans and misdirection.
Jabbar had the flag upside down.
Someone at the FBI is getting fired for not calling him a “lone wolf” yesterday.
Correlation does not imply causation....but in this instance, the coincidences are just too much in parallel.
The FBI (Famous But Incompetent) is slow-walking this because they know, in their hearts, there is very probably a connection, they just don’t want to find it too quickly.
Well that settles it.
Now we can be sure there is a connection...
To her credit, the mayor of New Orleans quickly - and correctly - called the incident in her city a terror attack.
I wonder… if she had kept quiet, would the FBI have also called it terror attack? Or would they have tried to brand it as something else?
Well, he can’t say there IS a definitive link unless he can say what the nature of it is, which he can’t until it is uncovered.
Nobody believes the FBI anymore.
It’s a joke when they are trotted out to give statements to the retardo-media.
Remember how they dissembled over Crooks and Routh?
Those were Democrat ops.
I’m wondering if this was also a Dem op.
Both the Vegas loser and the New Orleans idiot donated to Democrats.
Said they were looking for four or five others. Then said they were “lone wolves.”
Too many coinkidinks. Too much woof-woof.
