New threats by armed extremists include "rules of engagement" and targets Democrats

Congress was briefed yesterday about new threats from pro Trump extremists against legislators and the U.S. Capitol days before and on Inauguration Day.

In an interview on CNN, Pennsylvania Representative Conor Lamb said, "They were talking about 4,000 armed 'patriots' to surround the Capitol and prevent any Democrat from going in. They have published rules of engagement, meaning when you shoot and when you don't. So this is an organized group that has a plan."

"We are not negotiating with or reasoning with these people. They have to be prosecuted. They have to be stopped. And unfortunately, that includes the President, which is why he needs to be impeached and removed from office.," said Lamb.

As he left for Texas today, Trump said he does not want violence but he also denied any responsibility for the January 6 riots and said his remarks to his supporters at the rally were appropriate. Trump railed against impeachment efforts.
