‘We need to catch these people’: FBI asked to investigate far-right Patriot Front over a year ago

The report notes that police in Idaho worked hand in hand with FBI officials dating back to, at least, August 2021 as their acts of vandalism began to accelerate and Coeur d’Alene Mayor Steve Widmyer raised the red flag.

According to the report, “New documents show how Idaho cops and FBI agents were tracking white nationalists from Patriot Front months before the group was arrested this month for allegedly conspiring to attack a local LGBT Pride event in Coeur d’Alene,” adding, “Those agents also helped Coeur d’Alene police prepare for Patriot Front’s alleged conspiracy to riot at a June Pride event, when local law enforcement arrested 31 members of the group.”
