Summary

As the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security warn Americans and fellow low enforcement of possible targeted attacks here at home in retaliation for the U.S./Israel attack on Iran,  authorities are now investigating a mass shooting in Austin as possible terrorism.  A 53 year old man wearing a “Property of Allah” shirt with an Iranian flag opened fire at people enjoying their weekend on a front patio at a popular bar, killing 2 and injuring 14 others.   Republicans are now putting pressure on Democrats to fund the Department of Homeland Security in the wake of the war with Iran.
