The FBI has received information indicating "armed protests" are being planned at all 50 state capitols and the US Capitol in Washington, DC in the days leading up to President-elect Joe Biden's inauguration on January 20, according to an internal bulletin obtained by Zachary Cohen and Whitney Wild for CNN.

Reporting for Raw Story, Brad Reed said Trump supporters are not backing down from their threats to carry out violence in the name of keeping the president in power.


An FBI bulletin obtained by ABC News reporter Aaron Katersky said the actions that the armed protesters want to culminate in “boogaloo” or civil war would start on January 16 in various capitols and on January 17 until January 20 in the US Capitol. The FBI received threats on January 8.


The Associated Press (AP) and Reuters also reported that the Trump zealots have vowed to wreak havoc if Trump were impeached anew or is removed by way of the 25th Amendment.


"They have warned that if Congress attempts to remove POTUS via the 25th Amendment a huge uprising will occur," the FBI bulletin stated.


Additionally, the bulletin states that one group of Trump supporters "is calling for 'storming' state, local, and federal government courthouses and administrative buildings in the event President Trump is removed prior to Inauguration Day."


The FBI bulletins come days after Trump supporters rioted at the United States Capitol building in a failed effort to block Congress from certifying President-elect Joe Biden's victory, Vivian Salama, Geneva Sands, Barbara Starr, Christina Carrega and Devan Cole also reported for CNN.
