Iran Press/America: "We are seeing ... chatter from these white supremacists, from these far-right extremists – they feel emboldened at this moment," Jonathan Greenblatt, CEO of the Anti-Defamation League said Saturday.
"We fully expect that this violence could actually get worse before it gets better," he told CNN.
Twitter has also warned of increased online chatter relating to violence in the days ahead.
"Plans for future armed protests have already begun proliferating on and off-Twitter, including a proposed secondary attack on the US Capitol and state capitol buildings on January 17, 2021," the site said in a statement.
US President-elect Joe Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris will be inaugurated on 20 January.
The social media giant took the extraordinary step of banning Trump from the platform on Friday, citing the risk of further incitement of violence following the deadly insurrection on Wednesday.
The pro-Trump mob which stormed the Capitol on Wednesday in DC quickly overwhelmed law enforcement who were unprepared for the violence following the “Stop the Steal” rally, which saw the president riling up the crowd. Rioters quickly overtook police officers and breached the federal building.
Trump supporters had been openly planning attacks on the Capitol online for the past several weeks, according to reports.
Social media had been flooded with extremist comments ahead of the attacks on the Capitol.
