FBI arrests far-right Boogaloo Boi, 29, for 'plotting to kill government officials while stockpiling machine guns and a rifle-mounted grenade launcher': Ohio extremist joked about Paul Pelosi 'staying home and getting hammered'
2022-11-03
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • Aron McKillips, 29, was arrested by the FBI after stockpiling guns and creating a homemade Ar-15 rifle with a grenade launcher

  • He has been charged with unlawful possession of a machine gun and interstate communication of threats

  • McKillips is a member of the Boogaloo Bois, a militia group which seeks to overthrow the government and spark a second Civil War

  • The extremist shared a sick meme online about House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's husband, who was attacked in their $6m home with a hammer
    ...it’s pretty funny actually, and very much in line with the nearly three-century American tradition of mocking our politicians. As such, neither the FBI nor the news media have any business fussing about it.
  • McKillips was also heard complaining in an audio recording in a Signal chart room which had several federal informants in it, that no one wanted to 'raid a government building' with him, before saying that he wanted to 'mail a feds head back to his wife'
Another informant then told investigators that McKillips attended a protest at Richland County Jail in Mansfield, Ohio, to support a prisoner who had been killed by a corrections officer.

In June McKillips attended a Black Lives Matter protest in Louisville, providing security and blocking off traffic for other protesters.

McKillips is also reportedly a member of the New Sons of Liberty (NSOL) militia group, which advocates violence in pursuit of a far-right future.
