James Carville floats wild theory on what he thinks links the two attacks

Democratic strategist James Carville said Thursday evening on CNN that he believes the terrorist attack in New Orleans and the blown-up Cybertruck in Las Vegas are connected, as both suspects have some type of “sexual problem.”

Early Wednesday morning, around 3 a.m., 42-year-old Shamsud-Din Jabbar used his truck to plow through a crowd celebrating New Year’s festivities on Bourbon Street, killing at least 14 people and injuring dozens of others. Later, around 8:40 a.m. on Wednesday, 37-year-old Matthew Alan Livelsberger allegedly shot himself in his Tesla Cybertruck before it exploded, injuring several people nearby.

While some have questioned the connection between the two incidents, President Joe Biden said there has been “nothing to report” on the connection. Officials said they continue to investigate any possible links. On “Anderson Cooper 360,” CNN host Anderson Cooper said to Carville that the two suspects in the attacks had military backgrounds, adding “it shouldn’t be shocking, but it is still shocking.”

“The thing is, particularly [the] guy in Las Vegas, a highly trained soldier, but the crazy guy from Houston was in the Army for nine years. I mean, I’ve been in the military. The one thing you do is you learn how to deal with explosives if you wanted to. Fortunately for us, 99.99% of them don’t do that,” Carville said.

“But at the end of the day, this is my theory, and I’m going to be right 80% of the time. These people have some kind of sexual problem. I think that most of them are incel[s]. I’ll be wrong 20%, I’ll say that, but I’m not going to be wrong much more than that if you dig into it,” Carville said.

By Wednesday morning, officials had identified Jabbar as their suspect, and it was later confirmed that the 42-year-old was born and raised in Texas. He served in the Army on active duty from 2006 to 2015, then in the Army Reserve from 2015 to 2020, according to NBC News. After driving his car through the crowd, Jabbar got into a shootout with officials and was confirmed to have been shot and killed during the incident.

While the New Orleans incident is confirmed to have been an act of terror, Las Vegas authorities are still questioning the motive behind Livelsberger’s incident. In a press conference on Thursday, Clark County Sheriff Kevin McMahill said that they found an individual with a gunshot wound to the head and a handgun located near his feet inside the Tesla Cybertruck before it exploded. Authorities reported finding firework mortars and camp fuel canisters inside the truck. Authorities also said the motive remains unclear.
