Washington /
On the streets of Washington DC, federal agents they arrested a man carrying a loaded weapon, Ammunition and false credentials to enter the capitol on Inauguration Day.
The identity of the detainee, who was traveling in a van from Virginia, is kept secret, but his arrest confirms the condition of “maximum alert” that the US Department of State maintains in the face of the seizure of Joe Biden, January 20th.
Due to the capture of Capitol, the federal unit approved the participation of 25,000 members of the National Guard for protect the circuit known as National Mall, Which joins the White House with the Lincoln Monument and the Capitol, for the inauguration of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.
The siege implemented by the security forces covers almost 200 blocks of the perimeter surrounding the National Mall, an area where almost all businesses remain closed, even a majority of them have covered their facades with wood, in case violent confrontations occur.
Groups related to President Donald Trump they summoned on the go When democracy is destroyed, refuse to be silent for tomorrow, Sunday, January 17, which will depart from the Washington Monument in the direction of the White House. He is expected to leave at noon and is said to participants will come armed; mobilization has been convened in the 50 country capitals.
With today’s arrest, it is still doubtful that this protest will take place, as the environs of the capital of the United States, where they will leave, are taken by the National Guard.
Either way, and even if tomorrow’s event is frustrated, incoming President Joe Biden and his team will have to fight white supremacist groups that, as some detainees of the January 6 violent days have said, believe “the insurrection will continue.”
