(Hill) The United States is in a heightened threat level since Hamas’s Oct. 7 attack on Israel, which has “sharpened the focus” of terrorist threats to the country, Biden officials said at a House Homeland Security Committee hearing Wednesday.
“I feel very strongly that we are in a heightened threat environment,” Christopher Wray, director of the FBI, told the committee.
Rep. Mark Green (R-Tenn.), the committee chair, underlined that point, but pinned the blame on the Biden administration.
“This is one of the most dangerous times in the history of the United States,” he said. “Without question, the homeland is less safe under this president.”
