    And Senator Elissa Slotkin takes our questions about the post-9/11 intel community.

    This episode, national security correspondent Greg Myre and domestic extremism correspondent Odette Yousef join Mary Louise Kelly discuss how U.S. national security changed after the September 11th attacks. Will the structures put in place to prevent another attack survive the Trump administration’s cuts to intelligence agencies? And did a focus on militant Islamism mean turning away from threats posed by white supremacist groups?

    And Slotkin, a Michigan Democrat, argues that America’s political division is its greatest national security threat -- and the best defense is rebuilding the middle class.
