Report: Las Vegas bomber may have used Tesla Cybertruck to avoid casualties
Arutz Sheva ^ | 3/1/25

Posted on 01/03/2025 12:00:41 AM PST by Eleutheria5

The man who shot and blew himself up inside a Tesla Cybertruck on New Year's Day may have been motivated by purely personal and not political reasons. The New York Post reported that Matthew Livelsberger had a huge fight with his wife on Christmas, six days before his dramatic bombing.

Authorities have been working under the assumption that the bombing was an act of terrorism given its location right outside the Trump Hotel and use of a vehicle from a company owned by Trump ally Elon Musk. However, Livelsberger was known to be a Trump supporter.

Sources told the Post that Livelsberger, a US military veteran, was accused of infidelity by his wife on December 25. Following the fight, he left his home in Colorado Springs, rented the Cybertruck, and then made his way to Las Vegas.

Suicide? WTF! That takes a razor blade, a rope and a chair, one round from a revolver. It doesn't take making a spectacle of oneself like that.

And so your wife accuses you of infidelity? Either move out and get busy being unfaithful, or stick around and let the truth of your innocence eventually vindicate you. Suicide over that? WTF!

I don't believe a word of it.

"The man who shot and blew himself up...."

In that order, apparently. Next week we might find that he also drowned himself a day beforehand.

We’ve heard about all the similarities between terrorists in Las Vegas and New Orleans, such as they both were in the Army, both were stationed at Fort Bragg, etc...

Maybe it only seems odd to me, both rented electric vehicles, the guy in New Orleans was driving a F-150 Lightning, the guy in Las Vegas a Tesla Cyber Truck.

Maybe electric cars have become so common place it’s not odd for both terrorists to rent them.

I’m thinking there is more to it than a coincidence, maybe it has more to do with recharging them at home to avoid using a gas station with cameras, maybe it has to do with hoping the lithium batteries caught on fire making it very difficult to extinguish, etc...

Just something to think about considering all the other similarities.

If he was concerned about fatalities other than himself, why would he drive past Trump Hotel, then circle back, and park the cyber truck right outside the front doors of the hotel? He could have just shot himself in the head, and gotten it over with. Instead he also presses a detonator to blow the truck up. He could have just simply driven out of town to the desert and shot himself, not putting anyone else in danger. Obviously, he was a big attention whore.

Battery Electric Vehicles *are* that common. Turo, the rental service, has them as a specialty offering that they promote, too. However, it is likely that they were the only ones available over the holiday season. Most people rent with Turo during the holiday season for road trips and BEVs are less popular for that use for good reason. They’re the last to rent out in the holiday seasons for that reason. Source: A friend’s family runs a Turo partnership, renting through Turo.

In the case of the NO terrorist, his Lightning couldn’t have made it from Houston to New Orleans in the time he had it without charging at a station and most such stations have cameras (usually lots of them). Avoiding surveillance wouldn’t have been the reason.

Why would he worry about being observed if it was just a video. No last words to give his wife? His girlfriend, if any? Couldn’t he hold up a cardboard sign to the camera saying, “’BYE, B!TCH!”? This isn’t even a good lie. Clinton at least was an entertaining liar. Not believable, but fun. This isn’t fun at all. It’s just BS and more BS.

You say that EVs are that common, less than 10% of registered vehicles in the US are electric.

The percentage of electric truck vehicles in the US is obviously far less than 10%, yet both terrorists rented electric trucks.

As far as needing a charge from Houston to New Orleans, what if the guy had help along the way, picked up supplies and charged the vehicle.

I’m just saying it can’t be written off the possibility that it’s more than a coincidence that both terrorists rented electric trucks.

Of course. His “family” said his Facebook WAS filled with pro Trump posts and he was a huge Trump supporter. Despite already released posts.

And a suicide in front of a major hotel in a packed city using explosives because he didn’t want to hurt anybody?

This is weapons grade Joe Biden level of BS.

I wonder if he planned to transport his body to Fort Macy Park?
