Washington, D.C. — Congressman Correa will call on the House Homeland Security Committee to hold hearings to investigate white supremacy domestic terrorism in America.

Rep. Correa stated, “Yesterday’s horrific acts against innocent Americans were clear acts of terrorism. Our country has a homegrown terrorism problem we refuse to address. That ends now. We must hold hearings and finally address that terrorism inflicted by white supremacy extremists is destroying our country.”

  1. I agree. Congress should investigate white supremacy extremist, their plans and origins. We must get to the bottom of this horrific aberration. Racism, in any form, is patently absurd and detestable. Political violence should be condemned and harshly punished. Terrorism is evil.

  2. Yes terrorism is evil – investigate Black Lives Matter cop killers & MS-13 & take another look at radical Islamists as well.

    • I attended some of the first committee hearings on home grown threats during my time in the US Senate. We should specifically investigate the threat of far-right terrorism. The road to radicalization is likely particular to that group. While I can not say for sure, I do not think this thinking manifested out of thin air. The origins of this movement must be forensically investigated by Congress. I suspect there is a source, a source of hate that must be revealed, destroyed and discredited.

  3. “Birth control … means the release and cultivation of the better racial elements in our society, and the gradual suppression, elimination and eventual extirpation of defective stocks— those human weeds which threaten the blooming of the finest flowers of American civilization.”
