	Alejandro Mayorkas on Homeland Security

Domestic violent extremism greatest terrorism-related threat

We are very focused on domestic violent extremism. It is the single greatest terrorism-related threat that we face in our homeland. We are focused on gathering intelligence and information and sharing it in actionable form with our state, local, tribal and territorial partners. We are working with the office of civil rights and civil liberties in addressing the challenges with the social media companies to stop the violence that is born of ideologies of hate.

One of the greatest threats we face is domestic terrorism

On QAnon invasion of the Capitol: "To see the insurrection, to see the horrific acts of Jan. 6 were not only personally devastating, but ... that created in me a commitment to redouble our efforts to fight hate and to fight one of the greatest threats that we face currently on our homeland, which is the threat of domestic terrorism," Mayorkas told CNN.
