Phil Scott on Tuesday urged would-be protesters not to be âused as pawnsâ by extremists if they choose to demonstrate at the Statehouse this weekend, and up to Inauguration Day. The Federal Bureau of Investigation is warning that groups are planning armed protests at all 50 state capitols and at the U.S. Capitol on Sunday, and potentially âstormingâ state, local and federal government courthouses and administrative buildings if President Donald Trump is removed before the inauguration, as well as on Inauguration Day, January 20. Vermont State Police, Capitol Police and local police departments are coordinating and preparing for âany eventuality,â Public Safety commissioner Michael Schirling reiterated Tuesday. Schirling said Monday there were no specific threats against the Statehouse.
