Luke Barr, ABC NewsTim Walz and JD Vance spoke about the Middle East, immigration, abortion, the economy and more.
"The Homeland Security Assessment provides an important overview of the dynamic and evolving threat landscape, illustrating just how varied and challenging the threats we confront are," said Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas. "It is because of the remarkable DHS workforce, and our close collaboration with our federal, state, local, tribal, territorial, and private sector partners, that we are able to meet the challenges and keep the American people safe and secure.
DHS officials said that they are aware that the upcoming anniversary of Oct. 7th;may add "even more fuel to an already challenging and heightened threat environment." "These organizations maintain worldwide networks of supporters that could target the Homeland. FTO media outlets promote violent rhetoric intended to inspire U.S. persons to mobilize to violence, while foreign terrorists continue engaging online supporters to solicit funds; create and share media; and encourage followers to attack the Homeland, U.S. interests, and what they perceive as the West," the report said.
In addition to Iran, China and Russia also "pose a host of threats" to the United States will attempt to use a blend of subversive, undeclared, criminal, and coercive tactics to seek new opportunities to undermine confidence in U.S. democratic institutions and domestic social cohesion.
