A bulletin from the National Terrorism Advisory System warns of a "heightened threat environment in the United States" following the U.S. military strikes on Iran's nuclear sites. The bulletin, first obtained by CBS News Sunday morning, June 22, does not note any current specific threats, but warns that "low-level cyber attacks against US networks by pro-Iranian hacktivists are likely, and cyber actors affiliated with the Iranian government may conduct attacks against US networks."

The bulletin notes that U.S. law enforcement "has disrupted multiple potentially lethal Iranian-backed plots in the United States since 2020," and warns "the ongoing Israel-Iran conflict could also motivate violent extremists and hate crime perpetrators seeking to attack targets."

The bulletin also warns, "The likelihood of violent extremists in the Homeland independently mobilizing to violence in response to the conflict would likely increase if Iranian leadership issued a religious ruling calling for retaliatory violence against the United States."

The bulletin, which has now been officially shared with the public by the Department of Homeland Security, is the type of comprehensive threat assessment designed to communicate information directly to the public about threats and about "resources for how to stay safe during the heightened threat environment."

7. "The National Terrorism Advisory Board"

is late to the party. That 'heightened terror threat environment' shit started on Day 1 of Donald's term. DHS released the bulletin. I think the American people released that bulletin on June 14th.
