According to the complaint, Perry’s phone was seized, and showed extensive contact with Faye leading up to his arrest.

“Specifically, Faye expressed a desire to travel with Perry and another individual to the U.S. /Mexico border and commit acts of violence,” the complaint stated.

In March 2023, the FBI introduced an undercover agent to Faye on TikTok. After exchanging messages, Faye provided the agent with his phone number for further communication.

On April 1, 2023, three undercover agents met with Faye, in person, along with his two sons. During the meeting, Faye asked if the undercover agents were federal law enforcement.

After confirming that the undercover agents were not law enforcement, he began discussing his beliefs that the government was “training to take on its citizens” and allowing migrants to enter the country to assist them.

    This is the stupidest show-motion coup ever.

      I mean it’s the best thing for police Hollywood has ever done. The inverse is wait 24 hours to file a missing person report.

        No no no, you’re missing the important piece

        On April 1, 2023, three undercover agents met with Faye… Faye asked if the undercover agents were federal law enforcement.

        They didn’t have to say yes, because it was April fool’s day!

        Some police departments will make you wait 24 hours unless it’s a young child. It’s really a crapshoot whether you’ll be able to make a report or not.

      I do wonder if the GQP will lose full control over these groups. They are good at getting them riled up and keeping their attention, but if we take a page from apocalyptic cults; after several failed predictions they often conclude that it is up to them to ensure the second coming.

        I mean, that’s ultimately where this is going to head I’m afraid. Lots of these crazies are thinking a civil war is imminent, which means they may try to kick something off. We’ve been seeing this largely isolate behavior now for a few years, I don’t think it’s going to get any better anytime soon.

          They’re poking a tiger and then leopards ate face is gonna happen. They allowed Margie to have a platform and she’s surprisingly good with it. Bobo didn’t know how to use it, but Margie is a natural. It’s all gonna go to hell pretty soon. I’m planning on getting out.

      That’s high school-level shit right there: “If you ask a cop point-blank, ‘Are you a cop?’, they legally have to answer you, it’s the law!” I don’t know how many times I heard that.

      The quotes from this guy aren’t even full sentences. I wonder these people like Trump. They speak in fragments of thoughts.

          His name is Simon. He’s ~2 years old. He is primarily white, with a few black spots on his face, and a solid black tail. He doesn’t know how to meow, but he makes a chortle sound much like a penguin. His favorite activity is hiding his toys (and whatever he thinks are my toys) and then chortling relentlessly until I go find it. Then he repeats the process all fucking day long, usually in the same spot…

      And this is what kills me, dude has a big conspiracy about the goverment attacking it’s own citizens. But it never occurs to him that government agents might lie?

      10,000% chance this dude also had a “Blue lives matter” bumper sticker.

    Oh, that’s what Alex Jones was raving about “false flag” this, “false flag” that.
