Malik’s post was made on an account with a different name, one U.S. official said. The officials did not explain how they knew Malik made the post. A law enforcement official said it appeared that Wednesday’s attack — which left 14 people dead and 21 wounded before the two attackers, Malik and her husband, Syed Rizwan Farook, were killed in a shootout with police — may have been inspired by ISIS. But none of the officials said that ISIS directed or ordered the attack. h/t cnn
