Bennie Thompson actually said...

"Today is a new day and this committee's silence on domestic terrorism now ends because in recent years we have seen a dramatic and disturbing rise in domestic terrorism."

"Last year, nearly all extremism-related murders in the United States were committed by right-wing domestic terrorists."

"I urge the Justice Department, the FBI, and the Department of Homeland Security to recommit to working with this committee on behalf of the American people."

"It is time for our Committee to act."
