Militias and mass protests did not appear in Washington, D.C., during President Biden s inauguration Wednesday a welcome development for security and law enforcement agencies. Some 25,000 National Guard members are in the city, where insurrectionists stormed the U.S. Capitol just two weeks ago.
The FBI warned last week that all 50 state capitals could see violent protests from people who refuse to accept Donald Trump s loss to Biden.
But similar to the so-called Million Militia March that fizzled on Sunday, some far-right activists are telling their followers to stand down on Inauguration Day, citing a massive security presence at government buildings in Washington and state capitals.

All of the various right-wing Million -themed marches that have been organized over the past several years (such as December s Million MAGA March ) have fallen well short of the million people they claimed to rallyâusually, they number at best in the tens of thousands. But Sunday s planned Million Militia March was a failure of truly epic proportions: It seems no one showed up to march. Not a soul.
Similarly, worries about marches on various states Capitols around the nation turned out to be groundless when only tiny smatterings of armed militiamen showed up at a few of the events that pro-Donald Trump Patriots said they were planning in places such as Columbus, Ohio, and Salem, Oregon. Both failures suggest that the American radical right is now in utter disarray, at least for the time being.
