U.S. starts 2025 with deadly vehicle attack in New Orleans and explosion outside Las Vegas Trump hotel.

The United States began 2025 with two deadly incidents: a vehicle attack in New Orleans that killed at least 15 people and an explosion of a Tesla Cybertruck outside a Trump hotel in Las Vegas that injured seven. Both events are under investigation as potential terrorist acts. The suspect in New Orleans, a U.S. Army veteran, had ties to ISIS. Security has been heightened in response to these incidents, especially ahead of President-elect Trump's inauguration. Additionally, a fireworks accident in Honolulu killed three and a massive power outage hit Puerto Rico, though power was mostly restored. The U.S. is also nearing its debt ceiling, which could lead to a government shutdown.
