Las Vegas Bomber – Green Beret

| January 2, 2025 | 90 Comments

Matthew Alan Livelsberger, 37, is suspected of renting the Cybertruck in Colorado Springs and driving it across the border to Nevada on Wednesday morning to carry out his attack.

Matthew Livelsberger

 

If there was no connection to hatred of Trump (or Musk), it would be quite difficult to tell that from this photo. Was the intent to send this message?

Law enforcement sources have also revealed that Livelsberger previously served at the same military base as New Orleans terrorist Shamsud Din Jabbar, who drove a truck into a crowd killing many people.

Livelsberger has served in the Army for 19 years, the majority of which was spent in the Special Forces unit.

– – – – –

If he was in the Army for 19 years, it means he was one year away from retirement. The Daily Mail out of the UK suggests that he harbored some anti-Trump sentiment, along with his wife.

As more facts come forward, perhaps we will get a better idea.

Looks like they should’ve sent COL Trautman in for a talk with this retard.

Between this idiot and the other idiot from NO, the army’s going to be confused about which way to go with their forthcoming extremism stand down. Austin better get hot on that directive: he’s only got a couple of days left to take a whole training day away from real training needs or motor pool readiness.

KoB

Yep…they better get cracking. Damn shame that when a crazed vet whyte boy extremist comes forward, he just happens to be a Bad Orange Man hating, possibly, left wing extremist. Shorely does f*ck with the narrative, don’t it. Three (3) letter crowd wind up toy?

LC

How about we let the dust settle to see what’s real? The guy’s family says he loved Trump. There’s enough tragedy in these incidents already; no need to manufacture outrage from rampant speculation.

What a shitty start to a year.

Odie

Surely the dust has settled by now.

A Proud Infidel®™

NO LC, it’s been proven that the Crispy Critter was indeed a big TARDO, TDS nut, you name it.

MarineDad61

LC,
That gets a “Wow”.
That said, we won’t know for awhile
IF Mr. and/or Mrs Cybertruck BBQ were being honest and truthful, or being selective with the truth (lying, as seen in his Linked In), or even worse, playing two face with certain folks, including family members.

Trump-clicks-4-Wow
LC

Agreed – it’s entirely possible the guy hated Trump. But there’s conflicting information, so I feel it might be best to let the facts come out rather than assume based on our own biases. That doesn’t serve anyone right now; it just stokes anger and blame.

AW1Ed

There you go being all reasonable again.

Marine0331

LC, Not only is it possible, but it’s also probable. The dude obviously wanted to make a statement and probably wanted to take at least a few others with him to make his “statement” more dramatic. If, on the other hand he was depressed and wanted to commit suicide, he would have driven his own car to some secluded, back woods road and done the same thing but without the added drama. Who drives a rented Tesla to a Trump properly and then BBQ’s himself? You don’t think the Musk/Trump connection was a message? C’mon man.

HT3

Not like the family might want to deflect some possible criticism coming their way. But hey, nothing says you love Donald Trump like trying to blow up a Tesla in the valet area of Trump Tower in Vegas. Maybe its just me…

Cptsmith

Just imagine what he would have done if he really hated Trump

You… You you you ………you motherfucker…..
I was this close. I was this fucking close to spitting food and drink all over the sofa.

This was the bullshit UK daily fail article that I was referring to.

There’s a few who won’t get the obvious sarcasm even with a sarcasm disclaimer.

Marine0331

Yeah, let’s hope Marky-Mark doesn’t see this! LOL.

A Proud Infidel®™

Hey now, we just know that Austin is going for the REAL threat to our democracy and way of life, the evil Orange Man and his minions while taking care of the issues he sees as most important, like SHARP, DEI, trans inclusion and the other social engineering experiments.

Jimbojszz

Austin is the problem. Started by discharging enlisted with values. Tried to keep left thinking people like this TDS deranged suicidal shithead.
now Trump has to clean house.

MarineDad61

The Daily Mail UK article already exposes 1 LIE
on the Linked In by the Las Vegas Cybertruck BBQ.

(paste) [ [ While holding that position, Livelsberger said on his Linkedin that he also worked on a nearly one-year contract with General Dynamics Corp, a firm specializing in aerospace and defense.

He alleges he ‘engineered and fielded the first mobile standoff hyperspectral imaging “Lightguard Minotaur” system’ during his time at General Dynamics Corp.

General Dynamics told DailyMail.com they have no record of employing Livelsberger. ] ] (end paste)

Since we already have a dead and splayed out
New Orleans nutjobber photo out there ….

Perhaps we shall soon see a photo of
Las Vegas Cybertruck BBQ rack ‘o ribs.
Or something resembling a pig roast,
without the spit (or the rotisserie).

No thanks, I’ll pass. I have seen some of those “up close and personal”.

A Proud Infidel®™

Maybe from here on instead of mentioning his name, we just refer to him as “Crispy Critter”?

jeff LPH 3 63-66

Last crispy critter I remember was the one I ran a 6 foot halligan hook when I was on Ladder 2 through the flooded basement apartment into the remains of the deceased. I told the County arson investigator that the hole in the guy was from the end of the halligan hook. Guy was a heavy drinker and smoker so drinking + smoking in bed and falling asleep= an eternal sleep.

RGR 4-78

Somebody suggested ex-MSGT Crispy Critter.

A Proud Infidel®™

Yeah, I think I mentioned that on another thread.

RGR 4-78

Yep, just went back and found it.

Jimbojszz

I did some carpentry work in a crematory. Watch them sweep out the oven a few times. Also that smell of the bodies burning is not something I’ll forget anytime soon. Not for me. But I do like pork baby ribs with sweet sauce.

This POS may have served as a Green Beret. But he died as a cowardly Green Bidet.
How/why did he do this?

Anonymous

Shouldn’t an SF dude make a better bomb?

RCAF-CHAIRBORNE

One would definitely think so.
A 12yo Syrian kid could do better

W2

Coward? Wow, that’s pretty harsh, especially since you didn’t know him or anything about him.

W2

From one of the notes retrieved from his phone: In one note, according to the police, Sergeant Livelsberger wrote: “Why did I personally do it now? I needed to cleanse my mind of the brothers I’ve lost and relieve myself of the burden of the lives I took.”

Coward? Doubtful. Sounds more like somebody that was dealing with some pretty heavy mental health issues. Too bad he didn’t get the help that he needed.

jeff LPH 3 63-66

Latest news is that he died of an apperent self inflicted gun shot wound. I guess he had a timer on the explosives that detonated after he took the pipe

jeff LPH 3 63-66

After I read the story that he didn’t like Trumps twits plus other things he didn’t like tells me that he and all the other peeps that don’t like Trump wear horse blinders in that they only hear his comments and the BS that the lamestream spouts instead of seeing what he actually acomplishes.

Blaster

That seems to be the case! I’ve said it before, I didn’t like Trump the first time around (at first). I didn’t trust him. He had always been a democrat, then switched parties. A little while into his term, I started liking his policies.

Then I had to listen to Blaster-Six, saying,”see? I told you!”

HT3

He became a SF operations manager and team sergeant in February 2023 and moved into his remote and autonomous systems role in November last year.” -Daily Mail

Well, he sure as hell wasn’t a demolitions expert. I’m guessing he tried to set a timer and them BOOM…ruined his whole day. I wonder what went through his mind, aside from the back window, before the truck blew. Was he smiling at how devious he was to pick a Cybertruck to carry the payload? Was he thinking how he showed Orange Man Bad? What an asshole. I have ZERO sympathy for him.

PS I wonder if the rental agency will go after his estate for willful destruction of the vehicle.

A Proud Infidel®™

I would be in full support of that, send Crispy Critter’s Wife a bill for it and take a bite out of the SGLI!

MarineDad61

A Proud Infidel@,
Oh Oh. Details on BBQ wifey are now coming out.
And it’s not good.

Blaster

She is HOT!

I had an uncle tell me when I was younger, “doesn’t matter how good looking she is son, someone, someplace, is sick of her shit!”

jeff LPH 3 63-66

He was already a DOA from a self inflicted gunshot wound before the timer went off giving him a real blast blast …

rgr769

Apparently, the round fired from his Desert Eagle is what went through his mind, since he shot himself in the head just before the explosion.

HT3

I hadn’t read the he gave himself a lead-a-cilin shot. He doesn’t seem like a guy on a one-way mission. Well, phuque him anyway.

Blaster

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I almost spit coffee through my nose at the “back window” comment!!!

According to the briefing by the Las Vegas Sheriff (Chief?), the Sgt. was active duty stationed in Germany with the 10th SFG(A). Since I am a veteran of the 10th SFG(A), I can say that he was likely assigned to the 10th’s 1st Battalion in Germany. The 2nd, 3rd Battalions and Group HQ are garrisoned at Ft. Carson, CO. I suspect Livelsberger was home on X-mas leave. According to the Sheriff, the Sgt. was having a beef with wifey over someone’s infidelity. As someone else here observed, it is a good thing he was not a team demo sgt., or the whole front of the hotel would have been taken out. Apparently, he was a commo sgt. that was promoted to an ODA operations and intel position. Personally, I think the cheese slipped off of his cracker.

The fact he and the Muslime were both stationed at Ft. Bragg at the same time is meaningless. It is unlikely their paths would ever have crossed, as Jabbar was a leg and Livelsberger was SF airborne. It appears that Livelsberger spent most of his career in the 10th Group, as his language specialty was French. Moreover, since 2015, Jabbar was solely in the Army Reserve.

Sparks

Thank you rgr769. You answered my question.

11B-Mailclerk

From the supposed materials, I would have expected much greater yield. Everyone 18x gets the basics, yes? Seemed kinda amateur hour.

MIRanger

The Fox news folks had differing opinions from the UK folks. They also said he was assigned to Germany on home in Colorado visiting his wife and daughter, and may have had an argument. His uncle says he is a Republican and Patriot, and a Trump Supporter who voted for Trump. His Ex-wife in Florida is the Democrat with anti-trump stuff on her Fakebook posts.
His uncle also said he knew how to make much better explosives so it doesn’t make sense. There is discussion that he purchased a new handgun between the 28th when he rented the truck and Jan 1 when he killed himself. The image I saw showed a burnt up weapon that looked like a PDW. The picture of a shiny new gun showed what looked to me like a Desert Eagle. His awards and decorations had a BSM w/ V, and ARCOM w/ V, so he understands how to use a weapon. The S1 ISIS wannabe in New Orleans makes much more sense than this.

To me, this all sounds like the plot for Manchurian Candidate!

Fyrfighter

Yeah, something isn’t adding up with he Vegas one.. NO, that’s different. Incompetence in the PD and fib, and the perp fits the mold..

Blaster

It’s always a commo guy!

They get bored too quickly!

Graybeard

Past experience tells me that it’ll take a few days for the dust to settle and speculation become less rampant.

I’ll go with “wait and see” for now.

Daisy Cutter

Odds are, he’ll be painted as a victim. A misunderstood genius, a victim of a suppressive white supremacist military that will soon become void of DEI with Trump in office. He could have gone another year and got retirement, but that would mean he is institutionalized – brainwashed into the same system that churns out rubber-stamped veterans indoctrinated into believing that retirement benefits will be a narcotic substitute for staying in the true fight for freedom. We may think we are all wiser, but it is also possible that the true infinite wisdom burned up in that Tesla in Las Vegas. What happens in Vegas…

Fyrfighter

Commissar is already doing so.. And you know he only posts talking points, as he has no original thoughts..

I’ll tell you I’ll bet you it’s like 20 minutes before we see some dumb ass using that for a stolen valor profile not realizing, because they are that level of stupid dumbass

HT3

This story is getting strange…Just here me out.
His family said he’s NOT a Trump hater, and a patriotic AD soldier. Okay, take that at face value. He’s dead with a bullet to the head in a Tesla with FSD (full self driving) capability loaded with half-assed explosive payload. That’s a fact. Could someone have popped him, set the car to drive to the hotel valet drop off using FSD. After it reached the target, use a timer or remote detonate the payload. The vehicle is demolished and a fiery wreck, but his CAC card survives to make him the patsy? Maybe I’m completely wrong and WAY OFF BASE…

KoB

Big Country ExPat expounded on that same theory on his blog site. So have others.

The truth is out there…but will we ever know the “true truth”? I’ll take a hard no on that.

Jimbojszz

Autopsy will confirm the time and cause of death. And the video would confirm whether he drove in and exploded his head just before the BBQ. Most cameras record sound too, so they should be able to hear any gunshot.

Fyrfighter

Musk said his senior engineers already determined that all telemetry from the vehicle was normal, and that there was no malfunction. If that’s the case, I’m sure they can determine if FSD was engaged, and if so, when / where it was engaged.

Hack Stone

Heard someone discussing this theory on WMAL last evening, but that was debunked as Tesla owners say that the driver has to “be aware” for the self driving capability to function. No idea, Hack rides around the National Capital Region as a passenger in a biodegradable 1989’s vintage Jaguar.

A Proud Infidel®™

Hey, I’ve heard that old Jag SMOKES every other car in town thanks to its worn-out piston rings!

Marine0331

Unless I misread it, add I’m paraphrasing here, but I read something yesterday stating that his wife liked to listen to Trump’s tweets in the morning so that she could get motivated to kill someone. Yeah, she sounds very normal.

Army-Air Force Guy

That’s one CAC card that ain’t ever getting used again.

Sapper3307

His TDS wife will still get that SGLI and a flag.

Would be perfect if Trump presented the flag himself.

Please help me out if you know. Was he a Green Beret, or was he in a Special Forces support unit? Big difference.

rgr769

He was a fully qualified 18 series active duty Special Forces NCO. He was originally a commo sgt. But he was promoted and cross trained as an operations/intel NCO. He was either an SFC or MSG. He may have worked in an SF company or battalion staff position rather than on an ODA.

Oh Oh. New updates. Wifey DRAMA.
Worse, what we thought was his wifey, is actually EX wifey #1.

Oh, but there’s more…. NEW wifey #2 (and baby mama)

specifically December 26, accusing him of cheating.

So this article says he as an Unmanned Systems manager, not an Ops/Intel NCO. So he would have a good understanding of Autopilot and sending drones to do your job for you… why drive the truck then?

Here’s the latest. https://apnews.com/article/cybertruck-explosion-trump-hotel-las-vegas-6c85af85255753db497f2cd344fb2ace

Looks to me like another SOF troop spending most of his adult life deployed downrange and coming back all fucked up. I fear that this will be a common theme. “Decorated [Green Beret/SEAL/Raider/etc] commits some heinous act.”

Reminds me of Colonel Owen Ray. https://valorguardians.com/blog/?p=122944

Perhaps instead of trying to root out “extremism” (which obviously didn’t work) they should give our special operations forces a break.
