Proud Boys plan to 'wreak havoc' at Biden's inauguration -- while dressed in disguise: report

President Donald Trump notoriously told members of the far-right organization Proud Boys to “stand back and stand by” before the 2020 presidential election. Since Trump lost, the Proud Boys have no longer been standing by.

Over the weekend in DC, there were multiple instances of violence and the Proud Boys were accused of burning Black Lives Matter banners at Black Churches.

According to a new report by The Sun, the group is planning false flag operations to impersonate supporters of President-elect Joe Biden while causing chaos at his inauguration.

“Members of the Proud Boys are reportedly plotting to disguise themselves as Joe Biden fans to wreak havoc during the presidential inauguration,” The Sun reported. “The Trojan Horse-style plot was revealed on InfoWars alum Joe Biggs’ YouTube channel — on which the right-wing militants were ordered to ‘kick off this presidency with f*cking fireworks.'”

Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio explained the plot during a November 20th episode of Biggs’ YouTube.

“Revolt motherf***ers,” Tarrio instructed. “Do whatever you got to do to f*cking get your tickets.”

with few - if any - large gatherings and a reduced parade, this may cause the little boys some problems: just who are they going to infiltrate? Do they think they're going to somehow get tickets for the inauguration itself - those are limited to members of Congress plus 1 guest. I suppose some idiot like Mo Brooks or Tommy Tuberville might bring one of them as a guest, but they'll be vastly outnumbered.

I think they'll be out "protesting", weather permitting, but I doubt they'll be much of a problem.

that the proud boys originally started out as a group of men that were proudly "anti-fap", ie, refraining from "self abuse" as the Catholic sex ed teachers so delicately phrased it in our eighth grade class. Then the group started attracting self proclaimed Nazis and it evolved into it's current cretin form.

I don't know if that's true or not.

About 1100 people total.

The event is not open to the public.

Anyone who starts a ruckus will be the guest of an easily identified member of congress, or the member themselves.

Perhaps they may try to start something with Biden supporters in the area, but it won’t be inside the event.

The proud boys rarely think things through.
Like the Mich Gov kidnapping master-scheme, this will devolve into someone getting hurt.

The pb's do not realize how completely controlled the Inauguration will be. While many of us have gone through an airport TSA screening, maybe a medical scan or a police body search, an Inauguration's security is nothing to think can easily be overlooked or 'worked around'.
The majority of the master-minds will be arrested before Jan 20th, the overtly-bragging management style will cost many other mid-level morons thier freedom.

On Jan 20th, if you are lucky enough to go to a Presidential Election, leave everything at home. Bring your Photo ID, get a $300 prepaid Mastercard/Visa and maybe, $100 in cash. Nothing else. You will be scanned many, many times, you will be sniffed and your aroma will be determined as well as unknowingly having Artificial Intelligence scanning live real time video/photo for any face's, heights, eye colors, genders,and finding any similarities to the thousands of faces, that are viable threats.

It's a bit of a stretch thinking the proud boys could out think the most sophisticated surveillance tech.
Maybe try Charlie Chaplin costumes and mime your way through your insurrection flash mob.

of announcing everything nefarious you are going to do WAY ahead of time so there's no surprise element at all? So that all the adults in charge will be aware of the plan and will have preparations in place to halt it? Are they stupider than trump or are they all on the same lower-than-dirt level? Perhaps they will soon post photos of the clothes they would be wearing and the flags they would fly... if it weren't virtual for those not invited. We are fortunate that this time around the entire bunch of them, trump included, are clowns.

That I had some difficulty with in my teenage years, at that time they included identified "fags" on their kill lists that included my name. There was a major arrest involving confiscation of a lot of weapons along with plans they had scribbled out in poor grammar and spelling, but enough evidence to put many of the worst idiots I grew up with in a small midwestern town for a long, long time. Apparently their kill lists included some prominent names at that time, now nearly 50 years ago. I don't know exactly what they got arrested for, but I suspect it was a murder that hit the local papers, victim was no one I knew. I got pulled from classes for some questioning about my interactions with a couple of them. I told the police everything I knew.
Those prickheads were not only some of the most disruptive pupils in the entire school when they bothered to attend, astonishingly stupid examples of Dunning-Kruger poster children, but they truly convinced they were god's mercenaries.
I had considerable therapy about a layer cake of PTSD issues from those days, between some of those idiots and the long arm of Westboro Baptists, my parent's could not have done much worse picking a "quiet little town" to move me to.
How... just exactly how... any reasonable "conservative" can hear Trump mealy-mouth that "stand back and stand by", ahem.... denouncement of white supremacists and still think their vote even remotely "makes 'Murica grate agin" never ceases to astound.
