DHS Spending 'More Money' on Climate Change Than Combating Violent Extremists

CNS News reports:
Rep. Michael McCaul (R-Texas), chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee, says the current "threat environment" is as high as he's ever seen it, and although the U.S. has "done a very good job" in preventing terror attacks in the U.S., he doesn't think the Obama administration "has done enough" to counter "homegrown violent extremism."

McCaul noted that President Obama's budget "allocates zero dollars towards combating homegrown violent extremism.

"In fact, within the Department of Homeland Security, more money, in fact, millions of dollars, are dedicated to climate change rather than combating what I consider to be one of the biggest threats to the homeland, and that's the violent extremists radicalizing Islamist terrorists -- radicalizing over the Internet, in the United States of America."
No word yet from Tony Rodham on this story, maybe he can in on the action.
