Marking 9/11, Senate intelligence chair says domestic threats greater than terrorist attacks

Reported by Washington Times:

Senate Intelligence Committee Chairman Mark Warner suggested Sunday that the country’s current domestic threats from those who question the legitimacy of the 2020 election rival that of the 9/11 terrorist attacks some 21 years ago.

The Virginia Democrat, who regularly receives classified information as part of his post overseeing the intelligence community, told CBS’s “Face the Nation” that the attacks on democracy are now coming from within as opposed to foreign entities.

“I remember, as most Americans do, where they were on 9/11. I was in the middle of a political campaign and suddenly, the differences with my opponent seem very small in comparison and our country came together,” he said. “The stunning thing to me is here we are 20 years later, and the attack on the symbol of our democracy was not coming from terrorists, but it came from literally insurgents attacking the Capitol on Jan. 6.”

Amid heightened tensions in Washington, Mr. Warner hailed his panel as the “last functioning bipartisan committee.” The top Republican on the panel is Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida.

“I believe our intelligence community has performed remarkably. I think the threat of terror has diminished,” he said. “But I do worry about some of the activity in this country where the election deniers, the insurgency that took place on Jan. 6, that is something I hope we could see that same kind of unity of spirit.”

    Hi there! This article couldn’t be written any better! Reading through this article reminds me of my previous roommate!
    He continually kept talking about this. I most certainly will send this post to
    him. Fairly certain he’s going to have a good read. Many thanks for sharing!

    I was wondering if you ever thought of changing the
    structure of your site? Its very well written; I love what
    youve got to say. But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so
    people could connect with it better. Youve got an awful lot of
    text for only having one or two images. Maybe you could space it out better?

    Hmm is anyone else having problems with the images on this blog
    loading? I’m trying to determine if its a problem on my end or if it’s the blog.
    Any responses would be greatly appreciated.

    You actually make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this matter to be really something that I think I would never understand.
    It seems too complicated and extremely broad for me. I am looking
    forward for your next post, I will try to get the hang
    of it!

    With havin so much content and articles do you ever run into any problems of plagorism or copyright violation? My site has a lot of unique content I’ve either written myself or outsourced but it seems a lot of it is popping it up all over the web without my permission. Do you know any solutions to help prevent content from being ripped off?
    I’d really appreciate it.

    I am extremely inspired along with your writing talents as well as
    with the layout to your weblog. Is this a paid subject matter or did you modify it your self?
    Either way stay up the nice high quality writing, it’s
    uncommon to see a nice blog like this one nowadays..

    of course like your web-site however you need to
    take a look at the spelling on several of your posts.

    Several of them are rife with spelling problems and I in finding it very
    troublesome to inform the truth on the other hand
    I’ll surely come back again.
