Capitol Cops Briefs Congress on Grim, Gruesome Insurrection Plots They’ve Uncovered

Things could get quite scary in the coming days.

January 12, 2021

Investigations into the events of January 6th are still ongoing, and likely will be for some time. The act of storming the Capitol had only been accomplished once in our history, and never before by Americans.

The FBI, the DOJ, and the Department of Homeland Security are just a few of the agencies involved with the probe, and some of the stories that they are uncovering are simply disturbing.

Scarier still is what could lie ahead.

Capitol Police briefed Democrats on Monday night about three more potentially gruesome demonstrations planned in the coming days, with one plot to encircle the U.S. Capitol and assassinate Democrats and some Republicans.

On a private call Monday night, new leaders of the Capitol Police told House Democrats they were closely monitoring three separate plans that could pose serious threats to members of Congress as Washington prepares for Democrat Joe Biden’s presidential inauguration on Jan. 20.

The first is a demonstration billed as the “largest armed protest ever to take place on American soil.”

Another is a protest in honor of Ashli Babbitt, the woman killed while trying to climb into the Speaker’s Lobby during Wednesday’s pro-Trump siege of the Capitol.

Even more frightening:

And another demonstration, which three members said was by far the most concerning plot, would involve insurrectionists forming a perimeter around the Capitol, the White House and the Supreme Court, and then blocking Democrats from entering the Capitol ― perhaps even killing them ― so that Republicans could take control of the government.

President Trump has suggested that the situation is volatile as well, stating earlier on Tuesday that the nation could be in “tremendous danger” in the coming days, particularly as another impeachment looms on the horizon.
