The FBI circulated an internal bulletin on Sunday that warned there are plans for armed protests in all 50 state capitals and Washington leading up to President-elect Joe Biden’s inauguration.
The Associated Press spoke to two law enforcement officers who spoke under the condition of anonymity and warned that the nationwide protests might start later this week. Some of the people may be from extremist groups.
“Armed protests are being planned at all 50 state capitols from January 16 through at least January 20, and at the U.S. Capitol from January 17 through January 20,” the outlet reports the bulletin said.
A second source said that a memo was sent out on December 29 warning of the potential for armed protesters targeting legislatures. The riots that occurred on Wednesday followed weeks of online calls for violence in Washington, stoked by Donald Trump’s own comments.
