President Trump’s White House UFC event is now at the center of a disturbing federal terror-plot update.

FBI Director Kash Patel said the bureau and its partners became aware of the alleged threat on June 10, moved through a multi-state operation, and stopped the allegedly planned attacks cold.

Now Tony Seruga has posted a seven-part breakdown that puts the allegations into one place.

The full thread is below.

Part 1:

Seruga frames the alleged plot as a 23-person drone-and-sniper operation, with five people reportedly in custody.

The official record already shows why the story is serious.

CBS News reported that the FBI disrupted an alleged plot targeting the White House UFC event, and a federal criminal complaint and affidavit in the Southern District of Ohio charges Tycen Proper.

The criminal complaint and affidavit described the planning evidence this way:

PROPER had become more closed off from his family and spent most of his time online speaking to unidentified persons. PROPER’s family members also highlighted concerning statements he had made in recent months, such as making sympathetic comments about Adolf Hitler and posting anti-Semitic comments on Facebook.

Also on June 11, 2026, a local search warrant was executed on PROPER’s Apple iPhone, which the Knox County Sheriff’s Office had previously seized to preserve evidence.

During a preliminary search of the device, investigators observed chats on Signal groups that laid out detailed plans to conduct an attack in Washington D.C. with several unidentified confederates. In the chat, detailed imagery of the National Capitol Region and maps of the area were shared to a group of which PROPER was a member, highlighting sniper locations, potential drone launch locations, and other detailed tactical planning.

During the interview, PROPER admitted to planning with others a coordinated attack against the United States government during the UFC event scheduled to take place on the White House lawn in Washington, D.C., on Sunday, June 14, 2026.

Part 2:

That second post gets to the heart of the allegation: this was not described as a single isolated rant.

The filing points to encrypted chats, tactical maps, staging, and an alleged plan around crowd movement.

Part 3:

Seruga also focuses on speed.

That is the part that should not get lost here: the FBI says the threat was detected and the alleged attacks were stopped before the event.

Part 4:

The motive claims are where the case gets even darker.

According to the affidavit, some group members believed the United States needed to be torn down and rebuilt.

Part 5:

Seruga credits Kash Patel’s FBI for moving fast and keeping the operation quiet until the arrests were in motion.

Patel’s own public statement said the FBI, law enforcement partners, and DOJ acted rapidly to stop the alleged attacks cold.

Part 6:

Seruga then places the alleged plot in a bigger escalation timeline.

Some of that is analysis, but the court filing itself is concrete.

The criminal complaint and affidavit described the alleged attack plan this way:

According to PROPER, the plan as he knew it was to stage a demonstration on the north side of the White House. While the demonstration was taking place, the group would fly small, unmanned aircraft (i.e. drones) laden with unspecified explosive devices which would detonate over the north side of the UFC arena.

When the unmanned aircraft detonated, the intent was to force the crowd attending the UFC event and high value targets (HVTs) to evacuate to the south. PROPER stated that the plan was for members of his group to act as snipers and additional shooters, preferably with long guns, staged at or near the southern evacuation point to conduct shootings of the members of the crowd and HVTs as they fled from the explosive devices which had just been detonated.

The HVTs included both wealthy people and politicians. According to Proper, this attack was designed to “jumpstart” a revolution in the United States.

Part 7:

The final post turns to what may come next.

That portion should be read as Seruga’s analysis unless prosecutors confirm it in court.

Proper is entitled to his day in court, and the charges remain allegations unless proven.

But the federal filing shows the alleged plan was not a casual online threat.

It involved Signal chats, alleged drone launch points, alleged sniper locations, weapons, body armor, and a target-rich crowd at the White House.

The FBI says it got there first.
