McCarthy calls for no protests or violence if Trump is arrested
Andrew Solender
House Speaker Kevin McCarthy said Sunday he wants no protests or violence if former President Trump is indicted or arrested.
Why it matters: Media reports and the former president's own comments signal that an indictment from the Manhattan district attorney's office could be imminent, with Trump urging supporters to "[p]rotest, take our nation back!"
Driving the news: At a press conference to kick off House Republicans' annual retreat in Orlando, Florida, McCarthy told reporters: "I don't think people should protest this, no."
The House speaker also defended Trump, arguing he "doesn't believe that either" and is "not talking in a harmful way," though he said the two of them haven't actually spoken about the matter.
"Nobody should harm one another in this. ... We want calmness out there," McCarthy said. "I do not believe there should be any violence [in response] to this."
The intrigue: McCarthy joins a surprising hardline House Republican also discouraging protests — Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.).

I'm betting on a slew of false flag operators and Federal Informants and hired protestors to make an incident, whether any Trump supporters show or not.
And that's because I believe that a lot of 1/6 was Federal Agents/hirelings, agents provocateur and ANTIFAs pulling a false flag op.

That's where I wish state AG's would chime in and say if we catch you doing this to our citizens, you will spend a long time in jail. If anyone gets killed because of your actions, you get the needle.
