FBI Director Christopher Wray has cautioned about an escalating risk of a major Islamic terrorist attack, reminiscent of the fatal ISIS-K assault on a concert venue in Moscow this past March.
Wray presented this warning during a hearing of the Senate Appropriations Subcommittee on Commerce, Justice, Science, and Related Agencies yesterday (Tuesday), while advocating for an $11.3 billion budget for the FBI to address rising threats, which marks an increase of over $600 million from the previous year.
“We’ve seen the threat from foreign terrorists rise to a whole ‘nother level after October 7,” Wray informed the subcommittee. “Just in the time I’ve been Director, we’ve disrupted multiple terrorist attacks in cities and communities around the country. We need funding to continue protecting America from terrorism.”
He further stated, “There was already a heightened risk of violence in the United States before October 7. Since then, we’ve seen a rogue’s gallery of foreign terrorist organizations call for attacks against Americans and our allies. Given those calls for action, our most immediate concern has been that individuals or small groups will draw twisted inspiration from the events in the Middle East to carry out attacks here at home.”
“But now, increasingly concerning is the potential for a coordinated attack here in the homeland, akin to the ISIS-K[horasan] attack we saw at the Russia Concert Hall in March,” he said.
On March 22, terrorists linked to ISIS-K attacked Moscow’s Crocus City concert hall, resulting in 137 fatalities and over 180 injuries.

I agree with Chris Wray and Merrick Garland. WHITE supremacy is completely out of control in this country! Blacks in South Chicago and the Bronx are petrified to leave their free housing complex because they fear some scrawny white kid wearing a red maga hat is lurking in the bushes. This threat must be put down. Whitey must be taught a lesson.
