National Security Expert Warns Risk of Sleeper Cells in US

A national security expert is stating there may be danger close to home as sleeper cell activity within the United States poses increasing danger.

To that end, former 🛡️Department of Homeland Security (DHS) advisor Charles Marino is urging the DHS to raise the national terror threat level, per Fox News.

Marino’s warning follows a shooting that investigators say may be linked to terrorism.

“We are facing a wide variety of threats here, and the problem is, they’re all located within our own borders right now,” Marino said Monday.

Marino, a former Secret Service supervisory agent, talked about the threat after joint U.S.-Israeli strikes that killed Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

This prompted retaliation threats and warnings from security officials who believe 🕵️Sleeper Cells that infiltrated the U.S. may be preparing to strike.

“There’s no doubt that law enforcement and intelligence agencies are operating at an elevated threat level here in the United States,” Marino said.

“That’s based on the correct operating assumption that the United States has been allowed to be infiltrated with a myriad of threats from around the globe, thanks in large part to the policies of the Biden administration, which turned our borders into a sieve,” he added.

Marino blamed several border policies for what he said is an increasingly vulnerable domestic threat environment, including “the undercutting and exploitation” of asylum and temporary protective status programs and weakness in the legal immigration process.
