TORONTO -- Despite whispers of another attack on the U.S. Capitol perpetuated by QAnon believers and right-wing militias, no threat materialized on March 4, an auspicious day for certain sects of the conspiracy movement. Capitol Police, supported by intelligence from the FBI and Homeland Security, reported they had uncovered a “possible plot” in chatter between groups like Three Percenters, an anti-government militia, and QAnon conspiracy believers. While the Senate remained in session, the House of Representatives cancelled a hearing and the Hill was on high alert in response. The chatter centred on a second rumoured Capitol breach and the unfounded belief that Thursday marked the day Donald Trump would swoop in, seize power from the Democrats (possibly through military means) and be inaugurated – March 4 was traditionally an inauguration date for U.S. presidents until 1933.
