The FBI has warned of possible armed protests across the US as Trump supporters and other far-right groups call for action before Inauguration Day.
There are reports of armed groups planning to get together at all 50 state capitols and in DC in the days before Joe Biden's swearing in. Fortunately, security officials are saying that if there are any more armed "protests", there will be no repeat of what happened last time. Simply put, they are saying they will be better prepared this time.
Key Dates to Watch Closely:
Today (Tuesday): The House will be voting on a resolution calling on VP Pence to invoke the 25th Amendment, which would remove the president from office.
Tomorrow (Wednesday): Democrats will be voting on whether or not Trump will be impeached.
January 20th: Inauguration
As these days are specifically politically charged, we need to keep a look out for any more riots happening at state capitols or in DC on these days. In addition, January 17th seems to be another significant date to watch, as pro-Trump online networks have "called" this day to demonstrate. They have also talked about a march in DC on Inauguration Day itself.
Basically, this next week will be one to remember.
Keep hanging in there!
