JACK RICCARDI ON DEMAND AIRED WED. 10/07/2026

This is a big story, um, breaking this afternoon about the eighteen-year-old Sheikh Dune Abdullah Muhammad, who joined ISIS and was discussing a mass shooting at the Mall of America and had gone as far as to purchase his weapons and his ammo, but was doing so with an undercover FBI operative, according to unsealed federal documents this afternoon.

Uh, he told that confidential source last month, "I can't wait till I kill Kufar men.

October twenty-fourth is the day, Inshallah." And, um, there's some s- some event that was planned on that day at the Mall of America, which I think is, or used to be at least, the biggest shopping mall in the United States.

So he thought he was dealing with ISIS, and he had dealt with ISIS, and he thought he was planning this with ISIS, and he was planning it with a, uh, basically a, a plant.

And, um, they worked on this for about a year and a half.

Uh, he's now facing multiple, uh, charges, including the federal crime of terrorism.

He is a birthright baby.

His family came to the United States, uh, in the Obama years, and, um, the Somali, uh, of a Somali extraction.

And again, eighteen years old, um, all fired up about doing this.

It's kind of a story you feel like you've heard before, right? And there's a lot of things I could say about it, and people will say about it.

But I almost think that i- i- if you and I talk to each other about this, it, it's really...

it misses the point.

Like, I, I know how you feel.

You know how I feel.

You're shaking your head.

Um, w- what are...

You know, what are we doing? Where is the gratitude to people that we let into this country? But the problem is that the people that need to be confronted with this never are.

They won't grapple with this on CNN or in the hallowed halls of the Democrat Party.

In fact, if they think about it at all, it's probably just, in their mind, collateral damage.

Like, "Well, w- we're getting what we want.

We have birthright citizenship.

We had four years of unfettered immigration.

We are crippling and hobbling deportation, investigation of fraud.

Now, even though the current administration is hell-bent on correcting it, we, the Democrats, responded by villainizing the federal agency that does it, uh, turning people against it.

So we've taken the population that elected Trump, and we've turned them against the agency that Trump has to use to carry out the promises he made, the things people actually voted for." So in one sense, I wanna talk about it, and in another sense, I feel like you and I already get this, and they don't get this.
