NEWSBRIEFS AG Says White Supremacists a Growing Threat
ATTORNEY GENERAL MERRICK GARLAND
told a Senate panel on May 12 that domestic violent
extremists — especially white supremacists — represent
a growing threat to the United States, Reuters reported.
“The threat of lethality is higher than it ever was ...
I have not seen a more dangerous threat to democracy
than the invasion of the U.S. Capitol” by rioters on
Jan. 6, Garland said.
Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas
told the committee that while right-wing militia
groups are most likely to target police, racially or
ethnically motivated extremists are “most likely to
conduct mass-casualty attacks against civilians.”
Mayorkas noted that attacks inside the U.S. by
foreign militants such as Islamic State also are possible.
“It is not as if they have disappeared ... We don’t
take our eye off one to focus on the other,” he said.
