President Obama to Deliver Rare Oval Office Adress

President Obama will discuss the San Bernardino, Calif., shootings and the broader threat of terrorism on Sunday night in a rare prime time address from the Oval Office.

The address at 8 p.m. will hit on the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria and how the terror threat has "evolved, and how we will defeat it," according to the White House.
