FBI reveals why Trump White House UFC event went ahead despite alleged terror plot
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
EXCLUSIVE: As federal agents raced to dismantle an alleged plot targeting President Donald Trump’s UFC Freedom 250 event, investigators were simultaneously making another critical determination: whether the White House event itself could safely go forward.
In a Monday interview with Fox News Digital, FBI Deputy Director Chris Raia said investigators believed they had sufficiently disrupted the alleged conspiracy before the event took place, arguing that agents were monitoring suspects and knew none were in the Washington area when the UFC event was held.
«We absolutely felt very comfortable moving (the UFC event) forward,» Raia said. «We were confident that we had disrupted that main plot.»
The FBI initially arrested five people accused of participating in the plot to kill lawmakers and attendees at the June 14 event. Since then, prosecutors have publicly identified two additional defendants, raising questions about why the event was allowed to proceed while investigators continued pursuing other alleged participants.
5 CHILLING DETAILS FROM THE ALLEGED WHITE HOUSE ATTACK PLOT TIED TO UFC EVENT
Raia said the additional defendants were «followers» rather than leaders of the conspiracy.
«We were confident that we had the leaders, the main plotters of that, so the rest of the folks were more of the followers that you’re seeing now.»
«There was a lot of security there,» Vice President JD Vance said during a June 16 appearance on Fox News’ «The Five.» «And it turns out the plot was like, not that advanced. They weren’t in town.»

The issue reportedly sparked tensions between federal agencies.
Two senior U.S. officials previously told Fox News that Secret Service leadership wanted to delay publicly disclosing the investigation until additional arrests could be made, fearing that revealing the probe could alert other subjects and complicate the ongoing case.
Raia said the FBI did not share those concerns, arguing that investigators were already monitoring both the alleged ringleaders and other suspected participants.
FBI NAMES SIXTH SUSPECT IN ALLEGED PLOT TO USE DRONES AND SNIPERS TO TARGET UFC FREEDOM 250 EVENT
«We had that contained or what I would call mitigated very early on even though we didn’t do the arrests,» he said. «We were watching the folks that were planning it. We had them under surveillance. And so we knew that nobody was even close to the DC area at the time that was happening.»
Despite reported disagreements over when to publicly disclose the investigation, Raia emphasized that the FBI and Secret Service worked closely throughout the case.
«That was a joint case with us and the Secret Service,» Raia said.
The agencies jointly assessed the threat before deciding the event could proceed, according to Raia.
«We all talked about that as a group and made that decision to move forward with the UFC 250 event,» he told Fox News Digital.
Deputy Secret Service Director Matthew Quinn, responding to questions about the case at an unrelated event, emphasized that the Secret Service had «led that investigation from the beginning» and suggested investigators intentionally avoided public disclosure while the case remained active.
«In order to maintain the integrity of the investigation and the security plan we chose not to leak it,» Quinn said during a June 16 press conference.
Raia, a career FBI agent and former head of the bureau’s New York Field Office, was appointed FBI co-deputy director in January after the departure of former Deputy Director Dan Bongino. Before leading the New York office, Raia served as one of the FBI’s top counterterrorism officials and has been with the bureau since 2003.

According to court records, the alleged conspirators first connected through a TikTok community known as «Vanguard of the Old» before moving their discussions to encrypted messaging platforms including Signal, Telegram and SimpleX. Investigators say members organized themselves into tiered roles that included frontline operators, drone operators, recruiters, logistics personnel and technical support.
Court records indicate the network extended well beyond the suspects initially charged. After obtaining a warrant for the phone of Ohio defendant Tycen Proper, investigators allegedly discovered a primary Signal chat containing approximately 19 participants, along with smaller operational chats organized by role and location.
Raia said the case is far from closed: 14 to 15 FBI field offices are assisting in the investigation.
«We’re going to continue to work that case aggressively,» he said. «You uncover one layer, and you see four more layers.»
The case also underscored one of the FBI’s biggest investigative challenges: encrypted communications platforms.
«That is a gap for us in encrypted communications platforms,» Raia said.

Raia said investigators attempt to penetrate those networks through confidential human sources, undercover employees and other lawful investigative techniques.
«We try to infiltrate, obviously, with CHSs, UCEs, again, inside the bounds of the Constitution,» he said, referring to «confidential human sources» and «undercover employees.»
But Raia acknowledged the FBI does not have visibility into every encrypted chat where criminal activity may be occurring.
In the UFC case, he pointed to Proper’s mother as the catalyst who helped investigators uncover the alleged conspiracy before it could advance further.
«We had a concerned parent that really launched this entire UFC 250 case off,» Raia said. «Concerned parent called in on her son.»
The tip ultimately led investigators to Proper’s phone and the alleged network of encrypted chats that prosecutors say contained discussions about drones, sniper positions, escape routes and attack planning. Without that initial call, Raia suggested, the alleged plot may have remained hidden inside encrypted platforms that continue to challenge law enforcement visibility.
The UFC case also reflects what FBI officials say is a broader shift in the threat landscape. Rather than large, hierarchical terrorist organizations, investigators are increasingly concerned about lone actors and small groups that can organize online, acquire commercially available technology and develop attack plans with little outside support.
«I’m less concerned about a mass 9/11 style attack than I am a lone single person, a single attacker,» he said.
While discussing security preparations for the FIFA World Cup, he described drone-based attacks as one of the FBI’s top concerns and warned that tactics seen on battlefields overseas could eventually migrate to the United States.
Investigators say they saw signs that the alleged network may have been considering targets beyond the White House UFC event.
In a newly unsealed court filing, an FBI agent said he believed messages exchanged among alleged conspirators referenced a potential attack on a FIFA World Cup match scheduled for July 3 in Kansas City, Missouri.

«I think that is a threat that is emerging,» Raia said. «We have seen that overseas, and it’s only a matter of time for somebody brings that type of attack, that threat vector here to the United States.»
The alleged UFC plot illustrates many of those concerns. Prosecutors say the group allegedly used encrypted communications, divided members into specialized roles, discussed drone operations and coordinated activity across multiple states without relying on a traditional terrorist organization or foreign network.
This story is part of Fox News Digital’s exclusive interview with FBI Deputy Director Chris Raia. Additional reporting from the interview will be published in the coming days.

Rising socialist stars on track to Congress: Who are Darializa Avila Chevalier, Brad Lander and Claire Valdez?
Far-left candidates win New York primaries, sparking Democrat Party ‘shockwaves’
Fox News’ Harris Faulkner reports on the ‘socialist sweep’ in New York, as far-left candidates secured key victories in Democratic Party primaries. These wins send ‘shockwaves’ through the Democrat establishment, highlighted by controversial figures backing policies like abolishing ICE and Medicare-for-all. Cassie Smedile and Meghan Hays provide their analysis during ‘The Faulkner Focus.’
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
The Democratic Party has an identity crisis.
Three far-left radicals backed by New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani won their primary elections Tuesday night in a clean sweep by socialist and socialist-adjacent candidates. The mayor’s preferred candidates destroyed those backed by the Democrat establishment and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.), leaving party leadership shellshocked.
Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) members Darializa Avila Chevalier and State Assemblywoman Claire Valdez, along with progressive Democrat and former DSA member Brad Lander, all have a clear path to Congress after winning in heavily blue districts.

Here’s what we know about them:
‘PARTY OF ZOHRAN’: MAMDANI EMERGES AS DEMOCRATIC KINGMAKER AFTER SOCIALIST ALLIES SWEEP NYC PRIMARIES
Darializa Avila Chevalier
Avila Chevalier, 32, is originally from Florida. She attended Columbia University and is currently pursuing a PhD at the City University of New York (CUNY).
She spent much of her time in college organizing against the political right, and is a hardline anti-Israel actor. At the Ivy League school, she helped found a group called Columbia University Apartheid Divest (CUAD), which later caused a firestorm when it posted «Death to America» in Farsi on X.
In 2024, the group faced widespread condemnation when it stated that it was «fighting for the total eradication of Western civilization.» Columbia has distanced itself from the group.

Bernie Sanders and Mayor Zohran Mamdani campaigned alongside her and other candidates ahead of the Democratic primary and early voting. (Michael M. Santiago/Getty Images)
MAMDANI STANDS BY FELLOW SOCIALIST CANDIDATE DESPITE RESURFACED FAR-LEFT, ANTI-AMERICAN POSTS
Avila Chevalier identifies as «Afro Latina» and converted to Islam in recent years. Her parents emigrated from the Dominican Republic before she was born, and her nationality became a central focus of her primary battle in the largely Dominican 13th Congressional District, especially as she appeared to distance herself from her roots.
Tuesday night, she ousted five-term Democrat Adriano Espaillat (D-N.Y.), a progressive in his own right, after running against him from his left.
Avila Chevalier deleted a rash of inflammatory far-left posts from her X account where she attacked other Democrats including former President Joe Biden, whom she called a «rapist» and a «war criminal,» Vice President Kamala Harris, whom she cursed out, and progressive Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., whom she chastised for his «liberal Zionism.»

MAMDANI-BACKED SOCIALIST CANDIDATE STORMS OUT OF LIVE INTERVIEW WHEN CONFRONTED WITH OLD SOCIAL MEDIA POSTS
Perhaps most egregiously, she has trashed the United States on multiple occasions — one time calling her home country «a f—ing disgrace.»
«I forgot to get napkins so I just wiped my hand on the American flag behind me,» she said in yet another deleted post.
The soon-to-be congresswoman is also a rabid anti-borders activist, and has argued for completely abolishing police and prisons.
FAR-LEFT SURGE: MAMDANI-BACKED CANDIDATES OUST DEM ESTABLISHMENT INCUMBENTS
In a 2021 repost on X, then Twitter, she said that abolishing borders, prisons and police is «possible, necessary, and the only moral way forward,» and later amplified and echoed posts that claimed «all deportation is wrong» and to «literally abolish the border.»
In a debate against Espaillat last week, Avila Chevalier argued that illegal aliens shouldn’t be deported from the under any circumstances, even if they have committed violent crimes or served jail time. She bizarrely argued that deporting violent alien criminals constitutes «double jeopardy,» since Americans who commit the same crimes cannot be deported.

She also waged a war on white women and even once blasted black and Arab men for «fetishizing ugly colonizer women.»
DEMOCRATIC SOCIALIST MAMDANI ALLY MOUNTS BID FOR US HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
State Assemblywoman Claire Valdez
Valdez currently represents New York’s State Assembly for the 37th District, a position she was elected to in 2024. She took office in 2025, and almost immediately launched her congressional bid to replace outgoing Rep. Nydia Velázquez, D-N.Y., who is retiring from Congress.
Valdez is from Lubbock, Texas, and moved to New York to pursue a career as an artist in 2015. She is part Native American and a citizen of the Ysleta del Sur Pueblo Nation.
She, like Avila Chevalier, was endorsed by Justice Democrats, a far-left group that rose to prominence for helping launch the political career of socialist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y. The group describes Valdez as a «proud Democratic Socialist.»

SOCIALISTS CHEER ‘SHOCKWAVE’ PRIMARY NIGHT AS DSA-BACKED CANDIDATES WIN, ADVANCE ACROSS THE MAP
The endorsement brags that Valdez «worked low-wage customer service jobs through high school, college and after.» One of those jobs was as a worker at Columbia University, where she joined UAW Local 2110, which represents full and part-time secretarial and clerical employees. She was elected to the bargaining committee of the union.
Justice Democrats says that in her capacity as an assemblywoman, she «has fought to tax the rich, protect tenants, and empower working people.»
Valdez, too, has called Israel’s military action in Gaza a «genocide.»
«Two and a half years ago, Israeli leaders clearly stated their intent to carry out a genocide in Gaza,» she said in an X post on June 3. «And that’s exactly what they did. I was in the streets with so many New Yorkers protesting our complicity and to free Palestine.»

She has called for the U.S. to withhold funding to Israel.
Valdez has also outwardly called for the abolishment of ICE, which she described as a «fascist agency» and accused them of «terrorizing» the community and «kidnapping» people.
«This fascist administration is kidnapping our neighbors from their immigration court check-ins,» she said in a 2025 post to X. «What is Albany waiting for? State leaders cannot ignore this emergency any longer. We cannot allow ONE MORE neighbor to be targeted.»
«We must pass NY4ALL and get ICE OUT OF NEW YORK.»
Former NYC Comptroller Brad Lander
Lander served as the chief financial officer for New York City from 2022 to 2025 as comptroller.
Before that, he represented Brooklyn’s 39th District on the New York City Council for 12 years, and founded the Progressive Caucus while on the council.

Lander was a card-carrying DSA member until 2023, when he was turned off by the group’s response to the Oct. 7, 2023, Hamas terror attack on Israeli concertgoers that killed 1,200 people.
He defeated incumbent Rep. Dan Goldman, D-N.Y., in a landslide on Tuesday night in New York’s 10th Congressional District.
Lander says his first priority in Congress will be to «vanquish Trump’s fascism» and abolish ICE, and accused billionaires of «rigging our economy.»
MAMDANI-BACKED ‘LIBERAL ZIONIST’ OUSTS DEM WHO LED TRUMP IMPEACHMENT IN BID TO TAKE NYC HOUSE SEAT
He has described himself as an «ally» to the black community, and in a 2022 candidate survey for the comptroller job shockingly accused himself of possible white supremacy.

«As a white man, that work starts by listening as honestly as I can to black people about the anger and pain they are feeling, and the system of white supremacy and systemic racism it reflects,» he said.
«That is not easy —because it implicates me, because the anger is so deep, and because what it would take to change it is so big. But it must be the starting point. From deep listening, action-oriented solutions and genuine commitments should follow.»

In 2020, Lander called for police to suspend arresting criminals and demanded most inmates at Rikers be released. He also advocated for cutting NYPD’s budget by $1 billion in a letter to constituents, according to the New York Post.
«My commitment to working to defund the NYPD,» the letter reportedly said.

Rafael Grossi habló sobre el acuerdo entre EE.UU. e Irán y aseguró que habrá inspecciones nucleares en Teherán
El director del Organismo Internacional de Energía Atómica (OIEA), el argentino Rafael Grossi, aseguró que los inspectores de la agencia de Naciones Unidas volverán a ingresar a las instalaciones nucleares iraníes para supervisar las actividades vinculadas al programa atómico de Teherán, en el marco del acuerdo preliminar alcanzado entre Estados Unidos e Irán.
“Obviamente, para hacer eso, tendremos que inspeccionar”, afirmó Grossi durante una conferencia de prensa en la central nuclear de Fukushima Daiichi, en Japón. Y añadió: “El que esto ocurra pasado mañana o en una semana o en 10 días, es importante, pero no esencial. Esto va a ocurrir”.
Las declaraciones del diplomático argentino constituyen hasta ahora la señal más contundente del OIEA sobre el eventual regreso de sus inspectores a instalaciones clave del programa nuclear iraní, en particular a los centros de enriquecimiento de uranio, a los que la agencia perdió acceso desde la guerra de 2025 entre Israel, Estados Unidos e Irán.
Grossi sostuvo que el memorándum de entendimiento firmado por Washington y Teherán establece de manera explícita que las actividades nucleares relacionadas con instalaciones y materiales atómicos quedarán bajo supervisión internacional.

“Puedo entender las declaraciones políticas, son parte de la realidad, pero lo fundamental que me gustaría recordarles y llamar su atención es que ha habido un Memorándum de Entendimiento, firmado por ambos presidentes”, señaló el jefe del organismo.
Según explicó, el acuerdo “establece explícitamente que las actividades nucleares que se van a llevar a cabo con respecto a las instalaciones de material nuclear serán supervisadas por el OIEA en todos los términos”.
El titular del organismo reconoció, de todos modos, las contradicciones surgidas en las últimas horas en torno al alcance del entendimiento, a las que definió como una “guerra de palabras”.
Las contradicciones sobre el alcance del acuerdo

La afirmación de Grossi llegó en medio de la incertidumbre sobre si Irán ya aceptó o no permitir el acceso de inspectores internacionales a las instalaciones vinculadas con su programa nuclear.
Pocas horas después de las declaraciones del argentino, el gobierno iraní salió a desmentir esa interpretación. El viceministro de Relaciones Exteriores, Kazem Gharibabadi, aseguró que la delegación de su país no se reunió con Grossi durante su estadía en Suiza y sostuvo que las inspecciones en las instalaciones dañadas durante los ataques estadounidenses no forman parte de los compromisos actuales.
“Estos asuntos se revisarán y decidirán únicamente en el marco de un acuerdo final y como resultado de una acción práctica por la otra parte para poner fin a todas las sanciones y otras medidas”, escribió el funcionario iraní en la red social X.

La postura de Teherán también contradice las declaraciones del presidente de Estados Unidos, Donald Trump, quien había afirmado el martes que Irán aceptó los controles internacionales.
“Irán ha aceptado plena y completamente que se realicen inspecciones nucleares al más alto nivel durante mucho tiempo”, escribió el mandatario estadounidense en sus redes sociales. Incluso aseguró que sin ese compromiso no existirían negociaciones entre ambos países.
El rol del OIEA es considerado central para determinar el estado de las reservas nucleares iraníes. Aunque la agencia pudo visitar otras instalaciones del país desde el final de la guerra de doce días de 2025, entre ellas la central nuclear de Bushehr, continúa sin acceso a los sitios de enriquecimiento de uranio.

Esa situación impide al organismo verificar el estado de las reservas iraníes y examinar las cadenas de centrifugadoras utilizadas para enriquecer uranio.
Tanto Irán como el OIEA sostienen que actualmente Teherán no está enriqueciendo uranio. Sin embargo, desde los bombardeos estadounidenses e israelíes de junio de 2025 persisten interrogantes sobre el destino de las reservas de uranio altamente enriquecido que permanecían bajo control iraní.
La semana pasada, Estados Unidos e Irán firmaron un memorándum de entendimiento que prevé la dilución de las reservas iraníes de uranio enriquecido y un alivio de las sanciones respaldadas por Washington sobre las exportaciones de petróleo iraní. El acuerdo también estableció un plazo de 60 días para avanzar hacia compromisos más amplios.

La influenza continúa cobrando vidas en Panamá. El Ministerio de Salud (Minsa) confirmó cuatro nuevas defunciones asociadas a esta enfermedad durante la semana epidemiológica 22, elevando a 51 el número de fallecidos registrados en lo que va de 2026.
Las cifras reflejan que el virus sigue representando una amenaza para los grupos más vulnerables, especialmente adultos mayores, niños pequeños y personas con enfermedades crónicas.
De acuerdo con el informe epidemiológico más reciente, el 62.7% de las muertes por influenza registradas este año corresponden a hombres. Además, el grupo más afectado ha sido el de personas de 65 años y más, que concentra el 63% de los fallecimientos, seguido por los menores de un año.
Uno de los datos que más preocupa a las autoridades sanitarias es que el 100% de las personas fallecidas no había recibido la vacuna contra la influenza correspondiente a la temporada actual. Asimismo, el 82% tampoco se había vacunado durante la campaña de 2025.
El informe señala además que el 78% de los fallecidos presentaba factores de riesgo asociados a edad avanzada o enfermedades metabólicas, cardiovasculares y renales.
La influenza es una enfermedad respiratoria causada por virus que afectan la nariz, la garganta y los pulmones. Aunque en muchos casos provoca síntomas similares a los de un resfriado común, puede derivar en complicaciones graves como neumonía, insuficiencia respiratoria, descompensación de enfermedades crónicas e incluso la muerte.
Los síntomas más frecuentes incluyen fiebre alta, tos, dolor de garganta, congestión nasal, dolores musculares, dolor de cabeza y fatiga intensa.
Las autoridades sanitarias insisten en que la vacunación sigue siendo la principal herramienta de prevención. En Panamá, la vacuna contra la influenza se aplica de forma gratuita en las instalaciones del sistema público de salud y está disponible para toda la población, con especial énfasis en adultos mayores, embarazadas, niños pequeños, pacientes con enfermedades crónicas y personal de salud.
Las cifras oficiales muestran además que la circulación de virus respiratorios sigue siendo elevada. Durante la semana epidemiológica analizada se registraron 964 casos de síndrome gripal, para un acumulado anual de 18,271 casos.
Paralelamente, las infecciones respiratorias agudas graves, que incluyen bronconeumonías y neumonías, sumaron 432 nuevos casos en una sola semana y alcanzaron un acumulado de 7,882 casos en lo que va del año.
Mientras tanto, el dengue continúa siendo una de las enfermedades transmitidas por mosquitos con mayor impacto en el país. Hasta la semana epidemiológica 22 se habían confirmado 3,000 casos. De ellos, 2,632 fueron clasificados como dengue sin signos de alarma, 348 presentaron signos de alarma y 20 evolucionaron a dengue grave.
El dengue puede provocar fiebre alta, dolor detrás de los ojos, dolores musculares y articulares, náuseas y erupciones en la piel. En sus formas más severas puede generar hemorragias, afectación de órganos vitales y choque, por lo que requiere atención médica inmediata.
Otro padecimiento que continúa generando preocupación es la malaria. El informe reporta 79 nuevos casos notificados o actualizados durante la semana analizada, para un acumulado anual de 4,281 casos. La enfermedad, transmitida por mosquitos infectados del género Anopheles, puede causar fiebre, escalofríos, sudoración intensa, dolor de cabeza y anemia. Sin tratamiento oportuno, algunas variantes pueden resultar potencialmente mortales.
Entre las enfermedades menos conocidas por la población destaca la leptospirosis. Aunque durante la semana 22 no se notificaron nuevos casos, las autoridades actualizaron un caso correspondiente a semanas anteriores, elevando el acumulado anual a 23.
La leptospirosis es una infección bacteriana transmitida principalmente por el contacto con agua, suelo o alimentos contaminados con orina de animales infectados, especialmente roedores.
Sus síntomas iniciales pueden confundirse con los de otras enfermedades febriles e incluyen fiebre, dolor de cabeza, dolores musculares y vómitos. Sin embargo, en los casos más graves puede provocar insuficiencia renal, daño hepático, meningitis e incluso la muerte.
El reporte también registra 1,206 casos acumulados de leishmaniasis, enfermedad transmitida por la picadura de pequeños insectos conocidos como flebótomos o jején. Dependiendo de la variante, puede producir lesiones cutáneas persistentes o afectar órganos internos.
En cuanto al hantavirus, Panamá acumula 10 casos de fiebre por hantavirus y otros 10 casos de síndrome cardiopulmonar por hantavirus durante 2026. Esta enfermedad se transmite por el contacto con excretas de roedores infectados y puede evolucionar rápidamente hacia una insuficiencia respiratoria severa.
El informe epidemiológico también reporta 52 casos acumulados de gusano barrenador en humanos, siete casos de enfermedad por virus Oropouche, seis casos de viruela símica y cuatro casos de chikungunya, mientras que el zika continúa sin registrar casos durante este año.
Ante este panorama, las autoridades reiteraron el llamado a mantener las medidas de autocuidado, acudir oportunamente a los servicios de salud y completar los esquemas de vacunación disponibles. Para el Minsa, la combinación de inmunización, control de criaderos de mosquitos y atención temprana sigue siendo la mejor defensa frente a las enfermedades que continúan circulando en el país.
