Where does the conspiracy theory come from?
The belief that Trump will be sworn in on March 4 is rooted in theories promoted by the obscure sovereign citizen movement.
The sovereign citizen movement is a highly-fragmented grouping of Americans who believe taxes, US currency, and even the US government to be illegitimate.
A minority of them believe that laws do not apply to them at all, resulting in the FBI designating some members as "domestic terrorists" and "anti-government extremists."
A central tenet of the movement is that the 14th Amendment, ratified in 1868, converted "sovereign citizens" into "federal citizens."
This belief also goes so far as to dismiss the validity of any presidency after 1868, making Ulysses S. Grant the last valid president.
...
Why March 4?
Before the 20th Amendment in 1933, all presidents were sworn in on March 4.
It was introduced to shorten the "lame duck" period between elections and the start of new administrations.
Given that followers of the sovereign citizen movement reject all constitutional amendments passed after the 14th amendment, they do not view this date change as legitimate.
QAnon followers, who failed to see Trump inaugurated in January, have recycled the argument and reinvented the next legitimate inauguration date.
They say that on March 4, 2021, Trump will succeed the last legitimate president, Grant, to become the 19th president

And also the numbers fell from “thousands of secret indictments” to, now, just Biteme.
It would "seem" that way. I have faith our military will do the right thing and end this take over
The military will do no such thing.
Haven’t you been paying attention to what is going on with the purges & the wke-ness there?
The Commander in Chief Clause of Article II, Section 2 of the Constitution: “The President shall be Commander in Chief of the Army and Navy of the United States, and of the Militia of the several States, when called into the actual Service of the United States.” Biden is President, ergo he is CIC.
The military would recognize DOJ taking its sweet time investigating a matter concerning the president’s son as requested by two senators as a “compromised DOJ”? Hello? It’s none of the military’s business. They do not sit in judgment over our various organs of government, nor do they stage coups and remove sitting presidents whenever some executive department is pokey or whatever. This is is the USA, not a military dictatorship like Burma or Sudan, thank God.
Your link: it is not the official White House website, but let’s assume it is accurate. From the page you linked:
**The 2007 “National Security Presidential Directive 51” directs the geographic dispersion of leadership, staff, and infrastructure in order to maintain the functions of the United States Government in the event the nation’s capital is “decapitated” by a terrorist attack.**
Seeing as how DC has not been decapitated by a terrorist attack, what does Directive 51 have to do with any of this?
What do you think the US military's primary job is?
“To support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; bear true faith and allegiance to the same; and obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of superior officers, according to regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice.”
Nothing there about poking their noses into the civilian branches of government. And Biden is the President of the United States.
Do you think our military should have forcibly removed Trump from office when DOJ was poking along investigating his alleged Russia-Russia-Russia ties? I would hope not.
But you think they should remove Biden because DOJ is poking along in its investigation of Biden’s son? Should some unelected general sit in judgment over whether a sitting president should be removed from office? Is that Constitutional? Or is it like something you’d read about happening in some banana republic of yesteryear? Even the banana republics haven’t been up to such shenanigans lately, st least in our hemisphere.
Compromised meaning that agency is compromised by foreign influence.
The military has gone through dozens of scenario's with a Manchurian candidate. Donald Trump was falsely accused of being a Manchurian candidate and our process found he was not.
If there is no way to correct the problem. With other agencies are corrupted by foreign adversaries then it's the Military duty to act. The process takes time for all avenues to self correct without intervention. The military can not and will not act until all none military avenues are exhausted.
"Should some unelected general sit in judgment over whether a sitting president should be removed from office? Is that Constitutional?"
Yes with other agencies in agreement which DNI, DHS and Treasury department have already agreed we have major foreign control over our system. At this point is it's only a matter what action they well use. But they're REQUIRED to act. When is unknown.
Is it constitutional? You just read it to me.
The Constitution does not specify when the State of the Union address is to be given.
Where and when did John Roberts say this? And what is "complacence"?
This is MSM manufactured BS.
This is what actual Anons where “Q” posts are saying about it:
ANONS
I have a feeling that this MSM-manufactured idea that “we” believe that
Trump will be inaugurated on Thursday is gaslighting. They are laying the
groundwork for a falseflag, which they will blame on us and say we did it
because we were mad that March 4 didn’t habben.
Keep your heads on a swivel, and denounce this ******* ******** notion
that Trump is getting inaugurated this week.

😀 Probably fueled by the clean up committee dismantling the Clampets four story media platform and all those trailer park looking boxes and trucks, gone at last, from around the White House and the Capitol building, too.
The NG are scheduled to move out on the 12th, I think. MG Walker said that at the Senate hearing today, if I recall.
A glimmer of sanity?
