On January 1, 2025, the United States experienced significant terror incidents, including one in New Orleans where a former Army HR specialist killed 15 people while flying an ISIS flag. Shortly after, a vehicle-borne explosive detonated outside Trump Tower in Las Vegas, fortunately causing no casualties.
