  • Warner said the US grew stronger after 9/11.

  • The January 6, 2021, riot at the Capitol depicts an attack on the symbol of our democracy.

  • The senator wants the US to show the same kind of unity of spirit that it did after 9/11.

The attack on the symbol of our democracy didn't come from abroad, but from within the US, according to Senate Intelligence chair Mark Warner.

Most Americans know where they were on 9/11. When I was in the middle of a political campaign, the differences between me and my opponent seemed very small, and our country came together. Warner said that the terrorists were defeated because of the resilience of the American public.

The attack on the symbol of our democracy was not coming from terrorists, but it came from the same group of people who attacked the Capitol in January.

Warner said that the country is stronger and the intelligence community has performed better than in the past.

He thinks the threat of terror has gone down.

He is worried about internal threats.

I am worried about some of the activity in this country where the election deniers, the insurgency that took place on January 6th, that is something I hope we could see that same kind of unity of spirit.
