3 members of the far right Boogaloo bois have been charged with terrorism related crimes. They had planned to carry out attacks against law enforcment and government building during the BLM protests.
LAS VEGAS — Three self-described ‘”boogaloo” members, accused of trying to incite violence during Black Lives Matter demonstrations in Las Vegas, were indicted on two counts of terrorism and two counts related to possession of explosives, according to a court document released Wednesday.
The term “boogaloo” is used by an extremist movement to signify a coming civil war. Parshall served in the Navy, Lynam is a member of the United States Army Reserve and Loomis served in the Air Force, according to ABC news

Another alleged Boogaloo member is Airforce Staff Sgt. Steven Carillo, the guy who killed a Santa Cruz county deputy and a federal security officier during the George Floyd protests.
Authorities said Carrillo and a second man traveled to Oakland with the intent to kill police and believed the large demonstrations spurred by the death of Floyd in Minneapolis — which they were not a part of — would help them get away it.

Why are White Supremacists Involved in the Black Lives Matter Protests?
As researchers of street gangs and far-right groups, we see that in this case, they want to stoke a civil war between the races – one they think they can win. By antagonizing police, destroying property, or intimidating the public by adopting military gear – including weapons – these groups are attempting to instigate violence between the police, protesters and the public. Rousting law enforcement to violently retaliate against black people en masse is the first step.

Far-right smear campaign against Antifa exposed by Bellingcat
Far-right activists are using fake Twitter accounts and images of battered women to smear anti-fascist groups in the US, an online investigation has revealed.
The online campaign is using fake Antifa (an umbrella term for anti-fascist protestors) Twitter accounts to claim anti-fascists promote physically abusing women who support US President Donald Trump or white supremacy.
