During Tuesday’s Senate Judiciary Committee hearing, South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham asked FBI Director Christopher Wray about his thoughts on the current “threat matrix in America.
Wray’s answer was a little unnerving.
“What I would say that is unique about the environment that we’re in right now in my career is that while there may have been times over the years where individual threats could have been higher here or there than where they may be right now, I’ve never seen a time where all the threats or so many of the threats are all elevated, all at exactly the same time,” the FBI director replied.
“So, blinking red lights analogy about 9/11 — all the lights were blinking red before 9/11, apparently,” Graham continued. “Obviously, all of us missed it. Would you say there’s multiple blinking red lights out there?” he asked.
“I see blinking red lights everywhere,” Wray answered.
“The threat level has gone to a whole nother level since Oct. 7,” Wray emphasized.
