Obama: No “Specific and Credible” Threat of Terrorist Attack in U.S.

HeadlineDec 18, 2015

The arrest of Enrique Marquez comes as President Obama said there is no specific and credible threat of a terrorist attack in the United States. Obama spoke at the National Counterterrorism Center in Washington on Thursday.

President Obama: “Now, I want to repeat what my team just told me. At this moment our intelligence and counterterrorism professionals do not have any specific and credible information about an attack on the homeland. That said, we have to be vigilant.”

President Obama is planning to meet privately with the families of the victims in San Bernardino mass shooting later today.
