'Quite the moment': CNN shocked as FBI official exposed for offering 'zero details'
CNN's Pamela Brown highlighted a moment from a Homeland Security Committee hearing where the panel's top Democrat laid into an FBI official for his inability to provide details about the group he identified as the nation's top violent domestic security threat.
FBI official Michael Glasheen told the committee the law enforcement agency agrees with President Donald Trump that the left-wing group posed the greatest national security threat to the U.S., but he was unable to substantiate that claim when Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-MS) pressed him for details.
"I'll ask one question, sir: I just want you to tell us if you said antifa is the number one domestic terrorist organization operating in the United States," Thompson said. "I just need to know where they are. How many people? I don't want a name, I don't want anything like that. Just how many people have you identified with the FBI that antifa is made of?"
Glasheen told the congressman the investigations remained active and described them as "very fluid," and Thompson pounced.
