FBI reveals why Trump White House UFC event went ahead despite alleged terror plot
The FBI has revealed that a White House UFC event went ahead despite an alleged terror plot due to suspects being under surveillance and none being near Washington at the time. FBI Deputy Director Chris Raia stated that investigators believed they had sufficiently disrupted the alleged conspiracy before the event took place. The event was allowed to proceed with increased security, and additional arrests have been made since the initial five suspects were charged.
