US Capitol calm as QAnon-militia ‘plot’ yet to materialise

Al Jazeera  

Authorities say intelligence points to a plot to storm the US Capitol on or around March 4, though things remain quiet. National Guard troops and Capitol Police remained vigilant around the US Capitol on Friday as concerns remained over reported militia plans to storm the seat of government in a repeat of the January 6 riots as lawsuits and court hearings continued. Capitol Police and the FBI said they gathered intelligence that the Three Percenters, an anti-government militia whose name is based on the dubious claim only 3 percent of residents of the then-colonies resisted British rule in the US Revolutionary War, planned to attack the US Capitol on or around March 4. The reports came as the Capitol Police and the FBI faced congressional questioning as to how far-right “extremists” were so easily able to breach defences on January 6.
