Biden FBI Called White Supremacy ‘Most Persistent, Lethal Threat’ Before Islamist Terrorism Attack

How does a jihadist, flying an ISIS flag on his pickup truck, go undetected in the United States long enough to plow into pedestrians, killing at least 15 and injuring many more?

The FBI says Shamsud-Din Jabbar, 42, a U.S. citizen from Texas, is responsible for the deadly New Year’s Day terror attack in New Orleans and that he likely did not act alone. Law enforcement is still looking for others who may be involved.

Jabbar was not the threat on President Joe Biden’s radar. Jabbar did not fit the profile of the terrorists Biden, his crooked Department of Justice (DOJ), and feckless Department of Homeland Security (DHS) have been searching for.

While the DHS left U.S. borders wide open for any criminal or harmful ideology to enter, the DOJ made “domestic violent extremism” a “national priority area,” numerous reports show.

In June 2021, the National Security Council announced a plan to target domestic terrorists, mostly “those who promote the superiority of the white race” and “militia violent extremists.” The FBI called them “the most persistent and lethal threats.”

That is code for the kind of people who went to the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.

“Our current effort comes on the heels of … the Jan. 6 assault on our nation’s Capitol,” Attorney General Merrick Garland said in a June 2021 speech introducing the new focus on domestic terrorism.

“Certainly, the Capitol attack involved violent extremist[s],” FBI Director Christopher Wray testified to the Senate Judiciary Committee on March 2, 2021. He called those present for the chaos at the Capitol domestic terrorists, named the Proud Boys and Oath Keepers, and said some were “racially motivated violent extremists” who advocate for white supremacy.

Domestic terrorists are Americans who commit violence with goals that stem from “domestic, extremist ideological influence, and lack foreign direction or influence,” according to the FBI.

ISIS is a violent foreign influence, but the FBI was focused on domestic influences.  

Biden should have known ISIS is a threat. A 2019 Department of State report under President Donald Trump details its deadly attacks. But in an outrageous act of political malpractice, Biden decided instead to use the resources of the FBI to hunt down perceived domestic political threats that questioned his administration.

Biden has used a lot of terms to describe the domestic threat: White supremacy, Right-wing Christian extremism, violent extremists, but they all lead to one term: MAGA Republicans — the Make America Great Again crowd who just voted Donald Trump back into office.

In an angry, troubling Sept. 1, 2022 speech, titled “The Continued Battle for the Soul of the Nation,” Biden spoke derisively of “MAGA Republicans” 13 times.

Houston Mosque Reportedly Attended by New Orleans Terrorist Instructs Members NOT to Speak to the FBI and Refer Them to Radical CAIR

Masjid Bilal ISGH, a mosque in Houston reportedly attended by the New Orleans terrorist Shamsud-Din Jabbar, has instructed its members not to speak to the FBI.

Instead, the mosque advised its congregation to direct law enforcement inquiries to the radicals of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) or the Islamic Society of Greater Houston (ISGH).

Jabbar, a 42-year-old U.S. Army veteran who was discharged from the Army Reserve in 2020 with the rank of staff sergeant, converted to Islam before spiraling into erratic behavior, according to family members who spoke with far-left New York Times.

Dwayne Marsh, married to Jabbar’s ex-wife, noted the suspect’s increasingly bizarre actions, including cutting his hair drastically and displaying erratic behavior that prompted them to restrict his access to his daughters.

Jabbar had moved into a predominantly Muslim neighborhood north of Houston approximately a year ago.

Following the New Orleans attack, FBI investigators descended on the area, including the local mosque, Masjid Bilal ISGH.

Meanwhile, Masjid Bilal ISGH issued a statement to its members that many have criticized as an attempt to obstruct justice.

In a Facebook post, Masjid Bilal ISGH’s leadership instructed its members to avoid speaking to the media and, if approached by the FBI, to refer inquiries to CAIR or ISGH.

FBI confirms multiple IEDs found in French Quarter, Shamsun-Din Jabbar not ‘solely responsible’ for NOLA terror attack

FBI Spokesperson Aletha Duncan spoke at a press conference on Tuesday afternoon during which she confirmed earlier reports that authorities do not believe that Shamsud-Din Jabbar worked alone in carrying out what is being investigated as a terrorist attack.

“The FBI is the lead investigative agency and we’re investigating this as an attack of terrorism along with our partners,” Duncan said, before describing the incident. The suspect drove an EV Ford F-150 into a crowd on Bourbon Street in New Orleans at about 3:15 am, killing 10 and injuring another 35. “After hitting the crowd, he exited the vehicle and fired upon local law enforcement. Law enforcement returned fire and the subject was pronounced deceased at the scene.”

Duncan said that the Jabbar is a US citizen, born and raised in Texas. He was a US Army veteran. “An ISIS flag was located on the trailer hitch of the vehicle and the FBI is working to determine the subject’s associations and affiliations with terrorist organizations. Weapons and potential improvised explosive devices, IEDs, were located within the subject’s vehicle. Other IEDs were also located in the French Quarter.”

She went on to say that the FBI is working to run down his associates and is seeking to determine if there is a further threat. 

“We do not believe that Jabbar is solely responsible,” Duncan said, “we are aggressively running down every lead including those of his known associates. That’s why we need the public’s help.” She asked that anyone who had been in contact with Jabbar over the past 72 hours to come forward and give any information they may have to the FBI to “assist in this investigation.”

She went on to say that Jabbar was an Army veteran who is believed to be on honorary discharge.

FBI Discovers Largest Homemade Explosives Cache in History at Virginia Man’s Home — Allegedly Used Biden Photos for Target Practice

A Virginia man, Brad Spafford, 36, was arrested earlier this month after authorities discovered what they claim is the largest stockpile of homemade explosives in FBI history.

Spafford, who reportedly used images of Joe Biden for target practice, is being labeled by federal agents as an “extreme danger to the community.”

During a search of Spafford’s 20-acre property, authorities found over 150 homemade explosive devices, including pipe bombs labeled as “lethal.”

The arrest initially stemmed from a comparatively minor charge of possessing an unregistered short-barrel rifle, Court Watch first reported.

In a sworn affidavit, an FBI Joint Terrorism Task Force agent alleged that Spafford had disfigured fingers from a homemade explosion dating back to July 4, 2021.

The agent also noted suspicions that Spafford was stockpiling weapons and ammunition for some time, making him a “clear and present danger.”

A Liar and the Father of Lies

Since 2001 (when I started paying close attention), I have observed the United States government commit a series of massive frauds for the benefit of its cronies in the Military-Industrial Complex, Wall Street, and—most recently in 2020-2021—for the Bio-Pharmaceutical Complex.

In 2016, the racketeers who run the U.S. government were threatened by the improbable election of Donald Trump, and they immediately set about trying to sabotage it. Using the FBI as their primary tool, they fabricated the story that Trump had won the election by colluding with agents of the Russian government.

On the face of it, the story was the stupidest thing I’d ever heard, and it was then that I realized that America’s so-called “educated class” is ignorant and childish. The sheer magnitude of the lie that was told twenty-four seven for months on end was stupendous to behold, and it reminded of Jesus telling the Pharisees—with stunning frankness—that they are sons of the devil.

You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies.

I’m impressed by the great literary quality of this verse (John 8:44), and I wonder if it inspired Shakespeare when he created his villains Iago and Richard III, who are, first and foremost, liars. As Iago says of his plan to destroy Othello:

The Moor is of a free and open nature,

That thinks men honest that but seem to be so,

And will as tenderly be led by the nose. As asses are.

I have’t. It is engender’d. Hell and night

Must bring this monstrous birth to the world’s light.

Or Richard III says about his plot to seize the English crown:

Plots have I laid, inductions dangerous,

By drunken prophecies, libels, and dreams

To set my brother Clarence and the king

In deadly hate the one against the other.

Plots have I laid, inductions dangerous. I thought of this line this morning when I read a an essay by fellow Substack authors Jeff Carlson & Hans Mahncke titled “Alexander Downer Exposes FBI’s Deceit in Opening Russia Investigation”

FBI Scientist Claims Biden Regime Silenced Lab Leak Evidence Linking COVID-19 to Wuhan Facility

In a shocking revelation, former FBI senior scientist Dr. Jason Bannan has claimed that the Biden administration deliberately sidelined critical evidence linking the origins of COVID-19 to a lab leak at the Wuhan Institute of Virology.

Despite years of denial and censorship from government agencies, Big Tech, and mainstream media, the lab-leak theory—once dismissed as a conspiracy—has gained substantial traction, now supported by findings from the FBI and other experts.

Since the onset of the global COVID-19 pandemic, government officials and medical institutions have fervently dismissed the lab-leak hypothesis, labeling it a “conspiracy theory.”

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the World Health Organization (WHO), and Dr. Anthony Fauci have repeatedly downplayed the possibility of a lab leak, insisting instead that the virus was transmitted from animals to humans.

Meanwhile, Big Tech and mainstream media giants have censored discussions on the topic, banning and discrediting voices that dared to question the official narrative.

Earlier this month, the Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic concluded its two-year investigation into the COVID-19 crisis, unveiling its final report titled “After Action Review of the COVID-19 Pandemic: Lessons Learned and a Path Forward.”

FBI Found Evidence Covid Was Lab Leak But Was Not Allowed to Brief President

The FBI found evidence suggesting that COVID-19 was caused by a lab leak but were not allowed to brief the president, it has been claimed. The Telegraph has more.

Jason Bannan, a doctor of microbiology and former senior scientist at the FBI, has dedicated more than a year of his life to discovering the origins of Covid.

But despite being the only U.S. national intelligence agency to conclude that a lab leak was likely, the FBI and Mr. Bannan were snubbed from a National Intelligence Council briefing with Joe Biden, it has been claimed.

Mr. Biden had ordered an urgent investigation in May 2021 by U.S. intelligence agencies and national laboratories to identify whether the virus had been transferred from an animal to a human or had escaped from a Chinese laboratory.

One of the most popular theories at the time was that it had been transferred from a bat at a “wet market” in Wuhan, where the virus first emerged in 2019.

The National Intelligence Council (NIC), a body of senior intelligence officers that organised the review, had concluded with “low confidence” that COVID-19 had been transmitted from an animal to a human, along with four intelligence agencies.

This was then presented by Avril Haines, the Director of National Intelligence (DNI), and two of her senior analysts, to President Biden and his top aides in August 2021.

The FBI had not only concluded a lab leak was likely but that it had “moderate confidence” in its assessment – more than any other agency – and had expected to make this case to the White House but no officials from the agency were invited to do so.

In his first interview, Mr. Bannan told the Wall Street Journal: “Being the only agency that assessed that a laboratory origin was more likely, and the agency that expressed the highest level of confidence in its analysis of the source of the pandemic, we anticipated the FBI would be asked to attend the briefing.

“I find it surprising that the White House didn’t ask.”

FBI, DEA Deployment of AI Raises Privacy, Civil Rights Concerns

A required audit of the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) and Federal Bureau of Investigation’s (FBI) efforts to integrate AI such as biometric facial recognition and other emerging technology raises significant privacy and civil rights concerns that necessitate a careful examination of the two agencies’ initiatives.

The 34-page audit report – which was mandated by the 2023 National Defense Authorization Act to be carried out by the Department of Justice’s (DOJ) Inspector General (IG) – found that the FBI and DEA’s integration of AI is fraught with ethical dilemmas, regulatory inadequacies, and potential impacts on individual liberties.

The IG said the integration of AI into the DEA and FBI’s operations holds promise for enhancing intelligence capabilities, but it also brings unprecedented risks to privacy and civil rights.

The two agencies’ nascent AI initiatives, as described in the IG’s audit, illustrate the tension between technological advancement and the safeguarding of individual liberties. As the FBI and DEA navigate these challenges, they must prioritize transparency, accountability, and ethical governance to ensure that AI serves the public good without compromising fundamental rights.

While the DEA and FBI have begun to integrate AI and biometric identification into their intelligence collection and analysis processes, the IG report underscores that both agencies are in the nascent stages of this integration and face administrative, technical, and policy-related challenges. These difficulties not only slow down the integration of AI, but they also exacerbate concerns about ensuring the ethical use of AI, particularly regarding privacy and civil liberties.

One of the foremost challenges is the lack of transparency associated with commercially available AI products. The IG report noted that vendors often embed AI capabilities within their software, creating a black-box scenario where users, including the FBI, lack visibility into how the algorithms function or make decisions. The absence of a software bill of materials (SBOM) — a comprehensive list of software components — compounds the problem, raising significant privacy concerns as sensitive data could be processed by opaque algorithms, potentially leading to misuse or unauthorized surveillance.

“FBI personnel … stated that most commercially available AI products do not have adequate transparency of their software components,” the IG said, noting that “there is no way for the FBI to know with certainty whether such AI capabilities are in a product unless the FBI receives a SBOM.”

George Mason University Student Charged With Planning ‘Mass Casualty Attack’ Against Jews in New York

A student at George Mason University was arrested this week over claims he was planning a “mass casualty attack” on the Consulate General of Israel in New York, according to court records.

Abdullah Ezzeldin Taha Mohamed Hassan, an Egyptian national who is only 18, allegedly operated several social media accounts that were promoting “radical and terrorist-leaning behavior.”

While the accounts were run anonymously, investigators managed to trace it back to Hassan using his provided email address, phone number and IP address.

According to prosecutors, Hassan regularly posted about “revering Osama bin Laden and Ayman Al Zawahiri” and operated “several pro-ISIS and al Qaeda accounts that promoted violence against Jews.”

After developing an obsession with terrorism, Hassan eventually began the process of planning a “mass casualty attack at the Consulate General of Israel using an explosive device and rifle.”

Hassan discussed his plan in great detail with an FBI informant he believed to be an admirer of his ideological mission.

FBI Detains Possible Accomplice to 15-Year-Old Female Christian School Shooter

CBS 8 in California reported Wednesday that the FBI detained a 20-year-old man for plotting a mass shooting at a government building with the 15-year-old girl who would go on to attack the Abundant Life Christian School on Monday—killing another student and a teacher, and wounding six others before killing herself.

According to CBS, FBI agent served a gun violence restraining order on the man, Alexander Paffendorf, after discovering that he had been in contact with the 15-year-old shooter, Natalie Rupnow, online.

CBS 8, which obtained a copy of the restraining order, reported that Paffendorf admitted to having contact with Rupnow to FBI agents in an interview.

“During an FBI interview, Paffendorf admitted to the FBI agents that he told Rupnow that he would arm himself with explosives and a gun and that he would target a government building,” the two-page restraining order from the Carlsbad Police Department states, according to CBS 8.

The order said that FBI agents “saw the messages from Paffendorf to Rupnow.” A San Diego Superior Court Judge approved the restraining order on Tuesday night, the day after Rupnow’s attack.

TMZ reported Thursday that Paffendorf’s neighbors said he “exhibited seriously creepy behavior—never talking, avoiding eye contact, always wearing his hood up, and other unsettling anti-social habits.”

“In fact, his behavior was so bizarre, she claims it was even brought to his parents’ attention during one particularly eyebrow-raising incident—but they didn’t do anything about it,” TMZ reported.

That Rupnow would be in contact with a “creepy” 20-year-old man isn’t surprising, given her other online affiliations. As Headline USA reported Wednesday, Rupnow, who went by the name Samantha, Rupnow is closely linked to Satanic chat groups known for grooming teenagers to commit crimes, self-mutilation and other acts of depravity.

Rupnow’s links to Satanic chat rooms were exposed Tuesday, when a journalist published her apparent manifesto, which came from the shooter’s Twitter/X account.
