“If not,” Mr. Schroder said in the Parler post, “…I will March on the Communist Capitol Inaugural Event to Demand Election Security for 2020 and all future Elections.”
Mr. Trump decisively lost his race for reelection, as the Electoral College affirmed two days before Mr. Schroder’s post, so the actor should be protesting Mr. Biden’s victory provided he follows through.
In the post, Mr. Schroder, 50, alleged the nation’s election system is untrustworthy and suggested the incoming Biden administration is in cahoots with China and unspecified corporate entities.
“The Biden/Harris/Obama/China/Corporate Alliance will not take Power,” Mr. Schroder posted. “We do not give it to them We retain it.”
The election is over, but Ron Johnson keeps promoting false claims of fraud.

Two days after the Electoral College confirmed President-elect Joseph R. Biden Jr.’s victory, a Senate committee provided a platform on Wednesday for another round of specious legal arguments and falsehoods about widespread voter fraud that have been repeatedly rejected by courts across the country.
The hearing was the latest effort by the Republican chairman of the homeland security committee, Senator Ron Johnson of Wisconsin, to amplify the claims and concerns of President Trump. Mr. Johnson previously used his committee to investigate Mr. Biden’s son, Hunter, and to elevate fringe theories about the coronavirus pandemic.
Their request was made with mere weeks remaining until a British court decides whether to grant a request by the U.S. government to extradite Mr. Assange so that he can stand trial in Alexandria, Virginia.
Mr. Assange, 49, an Australian, faces charges in the U.S. related to WikiLeaks, the secret-spilling site he started, and possibly decades in prison convicted of all counts.
He was arrested in April 2019 inside the Ecuadorian Embassy in London, and he remains jailed on remand at a nearby prison while awaiting a determination on the U.S. extradition request.
The parliamentarians do not explicitly condone Mr. Assange in the letter. But they do echo his defense that he acted as a journalist by releasing through WikiLeaks reams of secret material embarrassing to the U.S.

President Trump said Thursday that he has kept his hands off the federal investigation of Hunter Biden, son of President-elect Joseph R. Biden.
“I have NOTHING to do with the potential prosecution of Hunter Biden, or the Biden family,” Mr. Trump tweeted. “It is just more Fake News. Actually, I find it very sad to watch!”
