President Joe Biden's nominee for attorney general sounded the alarm Monday on the domestic terrorism threat facing the United States.

"I certainly agree that we are facing a more dangerous period than we did in Oklahoma City at that time," Judge Merrick Garland, the nominee, told the Senate Judiciary Committee.

The 1996 bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah federal office building killed 168 people, including children. An investigation found that the bombing's conspirators were radicalized by white nationalist propaganda in the aftermath of the deadly FBI raids at Waco and Ruby Ridge in the early '90s.

Garland was a principal associate deputy attorney general at the time, and led the Department of Justice's prosecution of the bomber.

Over 1,200 San Francisco residents have signed a petition to recall three members of the city's board of education for prioritizing renaming schools over reopening them.

The petition began circulating on Friday and calls to remove Board President Gabriela López, Vice President Alison Collins and Commissioner Faauuga Moliga. The effort will need 70,000 signatures in total to get the recall on the ballot.

The petition's organizers, Autumn Looijen and Siva Raj, said their goal is "to get politics out of education."

"The website's cover photo of a child in a Zoom meltdown perfectly explains why parents are pursuing a recall," the petition organizers said in a Saturday statement, referring to a picture featured on their website showing a child face down in front of their school computer.

After the Supreme Court turned away two Republican appeals over Pennsylvania's mail-in ballot deadline changes, conservative Justice Clarence Thomas issued a blistering dissent against the decision to reject the case.

"One wonders what this Court waits for," Justice Thomas wrote. "We failed to settle this dispute before the election, and thus provide clear rules. Now we again fail to provide clear rules for future elections.

"The decision to leave election law hidden beneath a shroud of doubt is baffling."

Three conservative Justices Thomas, Samuel Alito, and Neil Gorsuch sought to hear the cases, while Chief Justice John Roberts sided with the liberal justices in turning then away. Justice Amy Coney Barrett did not take part on cases that preceded her swearing in.

"By doing nothing, we invite further confusion and erosion of voter confidence," Justice Thomas' dissent concluded. "Our fellow citizens deserve better and expect more from us.

"I respectfully dissent."
