DHS chief Wolf declares both white supremacists and leftists brutal threats

The Trump administration’s top homeland security official skirted the debate over whether left-wing extremists or white supremacists are the greatest domestic terrorist threat, saying the Department of Homeland Security was committed to battling both.

In an annual speech that has historically presented the department’s top focus, acting DHS Secretary Chad Wolf told current and former department officials gathered at the agency’s Washington headquarters on Wednesday that DHS is taking “unprecedented actions to address all forms” of violent extremism.
