“The man has now met the moment. At his Senate confirmation hearings starting on Monday, he will almost certainly be asked about the Department of Homeland Security’s warning that the United States faces a growing threat from ‘violent domestic extremists’ and that the Jan. 6 mob attack on the Capitol may not have been an isolated episode.”
