representative mccaul: i now recognize myself for five minutes. i want to first pull up on the screen what i consider to be an internet conspiracy to conduct a terrorist attack. i was a federal prosecutor and worked on direct cases organized crime, there are a lot of similarities but this one is conducted completely on the internet. i want to commend the fbi, homeland security, and the joint counterterrorism task force for their text book model case efforts in both the garland attack and most recently in boston. that is the way it is supposed work. unfortunately we have yet to get it right every time and they just have to get it right once. but this shows what we are dealing with-- the threat gone viral. yeah, this guy was an isis follower in somalia directing attacks against the cartoonist competition and mr.simpson who responds and as the attack is being conducted we have the chief isis recruit recruiters/hackers/directors for terrorist attacks congratulating them and basically saying that the knives have been sharpened and soon we will come to

terror threat with congressman michael mccaul, chair of the house homeland security committee. chairman, we talked at the top about this terror alert from the joint terrorism task force about possible attacks over the july 4th holiday. how alarming is the intel? how much chatter is there? >> it's concerning. there's a great deal of chatter. a high volume, if you will. the joint intelligence bulletin was issued to state and locals. the concern is quite frankly the confluence of these events, isis spokesman calling for jihad during ramadan which is happening right now. you have the one-year anniversary of the caliphate or islamic state and now we have the fourth of july coming up which is one of the holidays we celebrate that they like to target this sort of thing and these anniversaries. i think given the confluence of events, we're being on the cautious side here to warn the public to remain vigilant to enjoy the fourth of july parades, but remain vigilant

mccaul, for any statement he may have. michael mccaul: thank you, chairman katko, ranking member rice, for holding this important hearing. recent reports about the tsa screening in my view are deeply disturbing. and call into question some of the 9/11 security measures we have worked hard to put into place. fourteen years after that horrible day, islamist terrorists are still plotting daily to kill americans. and lately the threat picture's gotten worse. our aviation sectors are of particular interest to the terrorists. they think that by taking down airplanes, they can bring down our economy. last week, we reportedly hit al qaeda's number two in a joint strike -- join -- drone strike in yemen. it was an important counterterrorism victory. but it won't stop terrorists from aiming their sites at our skies. as we stare down these threats, congress and the american people need confidence in our defenses. terrorists have to be right only once. to defend ourselves, we have to be right 100% of the time. millions of travelers pas

michael mccaul. mr. mccaul: i lead a delegation to the middle east. i want to commend you. i went up to turkish officials and their information sharing on traveling is a huge breakthrough. i commend you for that. i encourage you to keep the pressure up on the foreign fighter issue. as you know, eu -- if you are citizen of the european union and coming out of the region through turkey, you're not going to be screened by a watchlist. i know eu parliament is ready to address this issue. many of the countries we met with -- i hope you can apply that pressure. let me turn to foreign aid. we give a lot of money to countries that vote against us in the united nations. president reagan's ambassador jean kirkpatrick testified in front of congress. that their actions inside the u.n. must have consequences for their relationships for with the united states. in response to her testimony congress passed legislation that tied their voting patterns with assistance provided. however in 1990, this provision was repealed. the state department continued the practice of reporting to congress o

>>> joining me now is michael mccaul. thank you so much for being here. what can you tell us about the attack on the fbi agent today? it's part of a conspiracy. we arrested an individual the other day connected to this plot regards an ied. now this is the second co-conspirator. there's another one we possibly think is out there as well. this is the new phenomenon over the internet. the terrorists have a new generation to not only recruit, train, teach how to make in this case pressure cooker bombs, but also give directives over twitter accounts to thousands of americans who are already here in the united states. when i talked to homeland and fbi officials, as i did this morning, they consider this internet terrorism gone viral to be now one of the biggest threats to the homeland. >> tells more about the dark space of the internet which you were briefed on earlier today, the way that people are able to communicate with each other on

next hour of cnn will be talking with congressman mike mccaul about these warnings were just talking about. >>> you may remember the story of drew peterson. remember him? he was found guilty in 2012 of murdering his third wife kathleen savio, after his fourth wife stacy went missing in 2007. well he's serving 38 years in an illinois prison and is about to stand trial once again. this time accused of hiring a hit man to kill the prosecutor who put him in prison. tonight a new cnn special report looks at the case and here is a preview. >> october 28th, 2007 the day candace akins' niece stacy peterson vanished without a trace. >> i thought she had been murdered most likely by drew. >> akin was not alone. all eyes were on stacy's husband, illinois police officer drew peterson a man whose third wife kathleen savio, had been found dead in the bathtub about three years earlier. >> i walk into everywhere i go and there's this little hum that

committee corporationman mike mccaul. mr. chairman thanks very much for joining us. first, do you know who this so-called prominent person in new york who was apparently being targeted by this group in boston for beheading, do you have a name? you don't have to necessarily share the name but is there a name that law enforcement knows about? >> yes. i'm not at liberty to mention the name but it's top law enforcement. and this is very consistent with what isis has been doing recently. their calls to arms followers in the united states when they twitter these messages as your reporters talked about, from syria into the united states to attack both military installations and law enforcement. this is the new wave the new generation of terrorism. it's gone viral. it's very dangerous and it's very hard to stop. >> the only thing we're hearing is this prominent person who was supposedly going to be beheaded if they had their way was not in the military not in law enforcement but a civilian. can you give us a little bit more detail without necessarily

i think congressman mccaul offer as good suggestion.t is surprising to me this is not something we already developed over the last 12 years. not as if the war on terror started yesterday. >> they already have a quarter of a million employees. according to that air 2016 budget. they have a quarter of a million employees. how is what he is recall toking going to be much different than the people already tasked to protect us? if we need that desperately i guess we better do it fast because the threat right now is for this weekend. andrea. >> luckily they have not been successful on u.s. soil. they became pretty darn close in that cartoon event in garland, texas. we would be having a much different conversation. i go act to the fbi put out a report didn't get a lot of press put it out late in the week where fbi director said there are thousands of potential lone wolves living among us. i want to go back to something you said tony. two summers ago, president obama gave a speech around memorial day. he said the war on terror is over. we're no

chairman mccaul's chart there, chris, was instructive. you saw that ticking up like a stock market graph. al qaeda was terror elitism. guidance from the top down. isis is terror populism from the bottom up and that makes it difficult for us to detect and stop it. it's that inspired by problem. >> do you think it was just a coincidence you had three attacks within a couple of hours? >> i can't rule out it was a coincidence. the spokesman called for attacks. it's the holy month of ramadan. it offered special places in heaven for suicide bombers who would conduct attacks. >> i want to ask you about that. the spokesman, chief spokesman from isis issued this call and we're in the holy month of ramadan. he said to make ramadan a month of disasters for the infidels. how seriously do you take that? >> i take it very serious. we saw what happened last friday. we need to continue to defend ourselves to prevent penalty kicks but ultimately what we're going to have to do is disrupt the isis narrative. right now they look as if because they've been so

joining us, chairman of the house home land security republican congressman michael mccaul of texas.ou have with us. when this happened last week a lot of people said this came out of china. you think it comes from the chinese government itself. how do we know? >> we know the attack originated out of china. it has all the hallmarks of a nation state attack. the reason why, it wasn't done for credit card theft purposes like target home depot. but rather it's big data mining. that tells me they're garnlgingthering intelligence information on employees to compromise them or recruit therapy as spiesthem as spies. this is highly disturbing. it is the largest breest against federal networks in history. so it's very significant. and it's not going to go away. this is the new frontier of espionage. and kline is good at it. >> you just described espionage to a tee. how should the united states government respond? >> i think that's the real issue for the administration policymakers. what is the proportionate response here? it hasn't been defined. there are no rules of the game in terms of what

. >> reporter: and congressman mccaul who as chairman of the house homeland security committee gets regular briefings on the threat. adding july 4th is target rich environment because of the events on military bases and the parades across the country. trish. >> what makes this time different? we've gotten warnings before, how is this considered different by authorities now than previous ones? >> the simplest explanation is what the fbi has seen in six months is a very short time period between when an individual makes contact with isis and then they make a decision to either travel overseas or to launch an attack in this country. what investigators like to say is that short period of time between the flash to bavenlth so that's why you see the fbi picking up people who under normal circumstances they would have done more intense surveillance to build a case against them. and what the command post tells us tonight is that they are really serious about trying to move quickly over the holiday weekend and get people off the street they think may be going toward the direction of isis, trish. >>

but michael mccaul head of homeland security in the house, said this guy was communicating with isis.it to a different level, in my mind. this is not just some renegade guy who is just a bad guy and starting to act crazy. this was a guy who was tied in to what dana is talking about, this national thing. and the way this takes us back to the first segment. these are people who, i think, couldn't even get along with people in his own mosque. he thought that mosque was too weak in his message. >> too liberal. >> icing on the cake. >> you're too much. and then he goes -- >> pretty good. >> and then does he not only start to communicate with isis but he starts to plot and have his moment of martyrism. he set himself up. >> and there's a digital call to arms. there's something happening that we can't see that the police have to have some sort of tool to be able to track what is happening online because that's how isis is -- we have got to give our law enforcement everything that they need to be able to fight back. >> absolutely right. >>> next who would you cast to play homicidal man jack c

mccaul: the resolution before us today is dangerous and should be defeated. for months we have been at war against isis. today the secretary of defense testified that, quote, isis is a threat to the homeland because of its avowed intentions to strike and recruit in this country. isis will be dealt a lasting defeat, end of quote. but this president does not have a strategy to accomplish this. we continue to fight the terrorists with one hand tied behind our back. the only thing worse would be to disengage completely which is exactly what this resolution would do. i recently led a bipartisan delegation to the middle east where i visited iraq. ground zero in the fight against isis, a week before ramadi was overtaken by isis. i spoke with prime minister abadi. unfortunately, the current strategy in my opinion, relies too heavily on the shia militia as a proxy of iranen to defeat isis. we now have over 3,000 american servicemens there to advise and assist the iraqi national military but the president has restricted our ability to take the fight to the enemy becaus
