US Capitol Threats , Have Feds on High Alert.
An intelligence bulletin detailed the plans of militia extremists to stage another attack on the U.S. Capitol.
[Militia extremists] have allegedly threatened an attack against the U.S. Capitol using explosives to kill as many members of Congress as possible during the upcoming State of the Union address, Joint FBI and Department of
Homeland Security Bulletin, via CNN.
March 4 is significant because
conspiracy theorists view it as the date in which
former President Donald Trump will return to office.
Historically, this date was used for
presidential inaugurations up until the 1930s.
Lawmakers were put on alert Wednesday,
prompting a House vote scheduled for
Thursday to be moved up to Wednesday night.
The Senate will continue to debate
the COVID-19 relief bill on Thursday.
The alert is symptomatic of a greater effort by
federal agencies to avoid the same mistakes
that led to the breaching of the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6
