Washington [US], January 14 (ANI): US state legislatures and law enforcement officials are boosting security arrangements at capitol complexes around the country following the violent insurrection last week as well as in the wake of warnings by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) of armed protests in the upcoming days.
According to The Hill, legislators say that they are increasingly anxious about the armed protests, which began last year in response to lockdowns imposed to curb the Covid-19 pandemic and are mounting over President Donald Trump's false allegations about election impropriety.
