Extremists could be planning yet another attack on the U.S. Capitol — this time targeting President Joe Biden’s first official address to Congress, the acting U.S. Capitol Police chief said Thursday, NBC News reported.

At a House Appropriations subcommittee hearing on the Jan. 6 riot at the Capitol, acting Chief Yogananda Pittman said Capitol Police are planning to keep an enhanced level of security at least through Biden’s address to a joint session of Congress expected sometime after Congress passes a COVID-19 relief package, NBC News reported.

"We know that members of the militia groups that were present on January have stated their desires that they want to blow up the Capitol and kill as many members as possible with a direct nexus to the State of the Union, which we know that date has not been identified," she told the lawmakers, the news outlet reported.

Has anyone checked with Donald Trump to find out what he knows about this?

A real investigation may not prove to be beneficial to the Democratic Socialists, who wantonly lie, slander and openly cheat to gain power and keep it.

This is why there are few patriots who are Democratic Socialists; the exception being those few that have served in combat zones as combatants.

It is extreme LEFTISTS who want to damage our Capitol. In the Jan. 6 incident, the only rioter who threatened destruction of the building was known BLM / ANTIFA leader John Sullivan, a leftist instigator who urged members of the crowd to join him in invading the building, shouting "Burn it Down". And, indeed, BLM and ANTIFA have burned a lot down around the country over the past year. While another leftist plat to bomb the Capital was thwarted, the only actual bombing of the Capitol was perpetrated by an offshoot of the far left Weather Underground. Their bomb did a lot of damage outside the Senate chamber.
