In the wake of Wednesday’s riot at the Capitol, Trump supporters with extremist views feel emboldened and are vowing to return to Washington for the upcoming inauguration of President-elect Joe Biden on January 20, using online platforms to rally each other.
“Many of Us will return on January 19, 2021, carrying Our weapons, in support of Our nation's resolve, towhich [sic] the world will never forget!!! We will come in numbers that no standing army or police agency can match,” wrote a popular Parler user who frequently posts about QAnon, and is being tracked by the Anti-Defamation League.
Parler, Telegram chat rooms and the platform TheDonald.win were all used to plan and coordinate the Jan. 6 rally that turned into a riot. Posters explicitly stated their intentions to “occupy” the Capitol. QAnon conspiracy theorists and people associated with militia groups had a visible presence in Wednesday’s crowd.
“Round 2 on January 20th. This time no mercy. I don’t even care about keeping Trump in power. I care about war,” an anonymous person posted on the platform TheDonald.win, which is filled with comments posted by people who lauded those who rioted Wednesday as “heroes.”
“There is growing concern that violent extremists are emboldened by the breach of the Capitol, which means the clock is ticking on taking down the most influential incites of violence before they act again,” said Frank Figliuzzi, former FBI assistant director and NBC News national security analyst.
Megan Squire, professor of computer science at Elon University and a senior fellow at the Southern Poverty Law Center who tracks online extremism, says she’s concerned that since President Donald Trump will not be at the inauguration, extremists will be focused on Biden.

Remember, leftist media like nbc is the enemy. We need not care what they write.

The Communists seem to be scared! Of what, the truth?
Translation: The professional agitator led mob (ruse) worked so well we are going to try it again. Democrats always overplay their hand.
So they shut speech down, pillage the voter box, the jury box and so this is happening?
I thought President Trump said something being the reason. 😂
Nope. You watch them like a hawk and take copious notes. I’m surprised that you don’t seem to know that.
You think our people aren’t pissed enough to do it ourselves? The “ANTIFA” bullshit is just an excuse for our side to surrender. We should be championing all those people who stormed the capitol as heroes. All this censorship was already planned and would have happened anyway. You know that. There were articles talking about permanently banning Trump already put out way before all of this.
If you want freedom, it’s going to have to be from thousands of people storming Washington and dragging these rats out.
Don’t forget - Gropin’ Joe isn’t leftist enough for the antifa fascist thugs.
Is she implying that Trump should be a target? These people are so sick, or they're so hyped up on snowflake pharmaceuticals dispensed by their personal, on-speed-dial shrinks, they don't even understand what is coming out of their own mouths
The lefties are so hysterical, maybe they can’t be trusted to wander around without supervision. They’re so sensitive, that any noise or movement might cause them to run headfirst into immovable objects.
They have reduced us all to antifa and BLM here is where they need to be concerned
Yes, you are correct. Know thy enemy and all. I guess the better word instead of “care” is “bothered by”. My main point was do not let their information warfare (i.e. The use of the word extremist) stop us.
Hope that clarifies.

Tracked by the ADL? Oh goody.
A few nutbars shooting their mouths off feel “emboldened”?
I think the whole article is agitprop.
Since NBC/Commiecast is one of the main enemedia conglomerates that supported the attempted coup attempts against PDJT over the last 5 years, it is no wonder they feel threatned. They don’t like competition.
The takeaway, if there is any truth to the article at all is that supposedly encrypted apps like Telegram are not secure at all. And that people are being watched (even here), whether or not they are doing anything, and that this information is being fed by somebody to orgs like the ADL.
Caveat emptor. ‘Pod.
Correct.
It has been done before in history. The furious reaction by the tyrants and their sycophants is typical. Personally, I think that the crowd should go back in the millions on inauguration day to have a chat with the tyrants.
She’s an SPLC twat. I missed that on the first read through.
Yep. Just like what happened in Hong Kong
And most Freepers just said ignore what’s happen there. It could never happen here. They say.
Yup.
I don’t see how this does anything but play into the communists hands.
