Government agencies are on high alert for President-elect Trump's inauguration, bracing for potential threats from violent extremists, particularly those disgruntled with the election outcome. A new threat assessment, compiled by agencies including the FBI, Secret Service, and Capitol Police, warns that some extremists might see the inauguration as a final chance to violently disrupt the democratic process, according to a Politico report. While no specific, credible threats have yet emerged, the assessment flags the possibility of attacks such as vehicle rammings, bomb hoaxes, or swatting incidents perpetrated by foreign terrorists, domestic extremists, or lone wolves.

Law enforcement officials are also concerned about potential unrest stemming from protests, especially given that some groups with a history of disruptive demonstrations have applied for permits. The threat assessment highlights past incidents involving these groups, including traffic blockades, trespassing, property damage, and resisting arrest.

U.S. Capitol Police Chief J. Thomas Manger emphasized the significant threat posed by lone actors during a recent press conference. He cited two incidents during President Carter's lying in state where individuals attempted to bring weapons into the Capitol and set a car on fire, respectively. These incidents underscore the need for increased vigilance and a heightened security posture.

In response to these concerns, a robust security presence is planned for the inauguration. Approximately 4,000 local law enforcement officers and 7,800 National Guard troops will be deployed, alongside roughly 25,000 total law enforcement personnel. Secret Service Special Agent in Charge Matt McCool confirmed a more comprehensive security plan compared to President Biden's 2021 inauguration, expressing full confidence in ensuring public and protectee safety.
