Trump latches on to false Fox News report about New Orleans attack

A factually incorrect Fox News report about the man who drove a pickup truck into a New Orleans crowd early New Year’s Day morning, killing 15 people, has fueled a new round of anti-immigrant rhetoric from Donald Trump and Sen. Josh Hawley of Missouri.

The suspect, 42-year-old veteran Shamsud-Din Jabbar, was reportedly inspired by the terrorist group ISIS. Fox News then reported that morning that he crossed into the United States from Mexico at the border crossing in Eagle Pass, Texas.
