Edward Markey actually said...

The doomsday that Americans fear in the 21st century isn't being vaporized by a nuclear bomb. It's the doomsday diagnosis of cancer, it's medical debt, it's housing payments or loan payments, it's grocery bills and heating bills.

Context

Markey emphasizes that real threats to Americans are healthcare and financial burdens, not military threats.
