Eery Quiet In DC, With Five Days Left In Trump Administration - News 1.15.2021
With just 5 days to go in Donald Trump's term, things are relatively quiet in Washington, DC, aside from the aftermath of the riot on January 6th at the Capitol Building. At the moment, though, things are quiet: no new Twitter feuds, no new wide ranging conspiracy theories, just the quiet hum of the federal bureaucracy.
And that bureaucracy is going after more of the people who showed up on January 6th to cause damage. According to prosecutors, one of the Capitol rioters was planning "to take hostages," in part because he was carrying plastic zip-tie handcuffs. The rioter was also found to be a retired US Air Force officer. Other rioters have been identified as off duty law enforcement from places as far as California and Texas, according to reports.
