The two men later met with an undercover FBI agent, whom they also believed belonged to Hamas. They offered to manufacture suppressors, untraceable firearms, and fully automatic firearms for the organization.

The two later gave the suppressors to the confidential source and the FBI agent believing they would be used by Hamas. They also agreed to manufacture more suppressors, believing they would be used against Israeli and U.S. military personnel overseas.

The U.S Attorney’s Office says the Boogaloo Bois “is a group of individuals who espouse violent anti-government sentiments.”
