Mueller’s Term Renewal and “Threat Matrix” Reviews

A couple of random posts from late involving me, the FBI, and “The Threat Matrix”:

• NBC’s piece on Mueller’s term renewal. “The difficulty in filling the position illustrates how sprawling the FBI job has become in the aftermath of the 9/11 attacks, said Graff. In the past, presidents have mostly turned  to federal judges and prosecutors to fill the position, but the FBI has since evolved into an international agency whose mission of combating terrorism and collecting intelligence has become as important as its traditional law enforcement functions.”
• An interview with Newsmax TV about the FBI and counterterrorism.
• The Washington Times’s review of “The Threat Matrix.” ““The Threat Matrix” – the name of the daily compilation of actual or rumored threats to the American homeland and Americans overseas – is a prodigious volume, covering the FBI’s involvement in counterterrorism over the past 90 years.”
