Stopping homegrown terrorism is no easy task.
No one knows that more than Homeland Security Secretary John Kelly, who admitted Sunday that he doesn’t know how to stop what he describes as the “most common” threat facing the U.S.
Kelly made the admission during an interview on CBS’s Face the Nation.
“There are so many aspects to this terrorist thing,” Kelly said. “Obviously you got the homegrown terrorists. I don’t know how to stop that. I don’t know how to detect that. You got other terrorist threats that come across the border. I believe in the case of the murder, in the Paris shooting I believe he was homegrown. But, again, there are so many threats that come in from across border. And it’s essential absolutely to control one’s border.”
Kelly said homegrown terrorism is “the most common threat” to America.
Kelly said the threat of homegrown terrorism keeps him “literally awake at night.”
