Capitol Police officials say intel on possible March 4 plot being taken 'seriously'

U.S. Capitol Police officials said Wednesday they have "obtained intelligence that shows a possible plot to breach the Capitol by an identified militia group on Thursday, March 4" -- the date that far-right conspiracy theorists believe former President Donald Trump will return to power.

The intelligence, which an FBI bulletin said could involve the "Three Percenters" group, which prosecutors call extremist, is being taken "seriously," the Capitol Police officials said in a statement posted on Twitter.

"Our Department is working with our local, state, and federal partners to stop any threats to the Capitol. We are taking the intelligence seriously. Due to the sensitive nature of this information, we cannot provide additional details at this time," the statement said.

The Capitol complex remains surrounded with temporary fencing topped with razor wire and some 5,000 National Guard troops remain on site.

Acting Capitol Police Chief Yogananda Pittman told House lawmakers Wednesday that security around the Capitol complex has been "enhanced" given new concerns about threats to lawmakers and the physical complex over the next few days.

"We are prepared to respond appropriately," Pittman said, but she declined to get into specifics about the threats, saying she would brief lawmakers in private later in the day.

An internal U.S. Capitol Police bulletin distributed Tuesday contains information about a possible militia plot to storm the Capitol on or around March 4, sources told ABC News.

The information in the bulletin is sourced to an FBI intelligence report from late February that describes the an alleged plot by the "Three Percenters militia group to use diversionary tactics such as detonating a bomb" to draw law enforcement away from the Capitol prior to an attempt by the group to take over the U.S. Capitol, according to a law enforcement source.

Remember the FBI & CIA invented the “Conspiracy Theory” meme to smear anyone that disagreed with their actual crimes and corruption. Just like their endless white nationalist, rogue militias, etc., the current conspiracy theory is to cover for the half wit demented President’s failure to give a SOTU.

Security crisis theater continues. But meanwhile, throw the border open, because FedGov doesn’t give a crap about its own citizens.

“the Three Percenters’ alleged goal of having 50,000 members from around the country travel to D.C. on or around March 4 through March 6”

So, 50,000 individuals are going to sneak up on DC? That would be impressive.
