Security Measures Heightened Amid Trump Indictment Speculation

TL;DR Summary
The US Capitol Police have not identified any direct or credible threats to the US Capitol ahead of a possible indictment of former President Donald Trump. Trump had called on his supporters to protest in response to a potential arrest, but the police have not yet seen any indication of large-scale organized protests and/or violence. The department's intelligence assessment warns of potential protests and violence directed at the Department of Justice, the FBI, and the Manhattan District Attorney's Office, and cautions that organizing protests supporting opposing views increases the likelihood of protestor/counter-protestor confrontation.
