EXCERPT:
MAYORKAS: “Jim, we in the law enforcement community and the intelligence community have been speaking of a heightened threat environment, certainly exacerbated in the wake of the October 7th terrorist attacks against Israel. We've been speaking about the threat of domestic violent extremism, individuals already resident in the United States who are radicalized by foreign terrorist ideologies, false narratives, anti-government sentiments, personal grievances and other phenomenon. We also have seen a growth in the foreign terrorist threat, and we have enhanced our screening and vetting accordingly.”
