What time period is he referring to?

If combating terrorism was the Klinton administrations "hightest prioroty", how could the FBI never complete a threat assessment? Today appears to be the "FBI falls on its sword" day to defend Klinton.

The chain-of-command is the FBI reports to the Attorney General who reports to the President.

Freeh -> Reno -> Klinton.

Maybe not, but they did publish this: Tomorrow's Terrorist Threats - Pulse Weapons, WMD, Cyber Terror, Agroterrorism (1999 FBI Report)

CONCLUSION

"THE FBI has been countering violent extremism since the agency’s earliest days. As the phenomena of terrorism became a serious threat to the nation’s sense of security, the FBI’s response to this crime problem evolved. Since 1982 the FBI has been the lead agency in the U.S. Government’s response to terrorism in the United States. "
