Active-Duty Troops Deployed in Washington D.C. For Inauguration

>President-elect Joe Biden’s inauguration is expected to be a historic moment in American history. Not just because of the precedent set for refusing to concede an election, but because of the amount of troops deployed in the Nation’s Capitol. The National Guard was deployed in D.C. and the city is on lockdown, with many businesses closed in preparation for potential violence. The troops deployed in D.C. are armed and wearing kevlar. This level of security is unprecedented and may be due to the FBI warnings of armed protests at all state capitols. The level of violence in the country is expected to increase in the coming weeks.
