Federal law enforcement and intelligence officials have observed an uptick in calls for unspecified acts of violence in the past 48 hours associated with the Jan. 6 anniversary, a senior U.S. intelligence official with direct knowledge of the matter says.
, a senior U.S. intelligence official with direct knowledge of the matter told NBC News Wednesday.
Some of the unspecified threats cited by the senior intelligence official are directed at lawmakers who voted to certify the 2020 presidential election the same day a pro-Trump mob stormed the Capitol attempting to prevent Congress from confirming President Joe Biden’s electoral victory. Earlier this week, Capitol Police chief Tom Manger said at a news conference that"there's no intelligence that indicates that there would be any problems" with the anniversary events.
