Ohio Man Among Seven Charged in Alleged White House UFC Attack Plot

Federal terror charges against seven individuals over an alleged White House-area attack plot raise questions about domestic threat assessment and federal coordination ahead of high-profile public...

The Congressional Times · June 26, 2026

Tycen Proper, 19, of Ohio, is among seven men charged in connection with an alleged plot to carry out a terrorist attack at the White House during a UFC event, according to federal authorities as reported by the New York Post on June 26, 2026. Authorities allege Proper had assembled a substantial stockpile of weapons and ammunition in furtherance of the alleged scheme. The specific charges, charging instruments, and the federal district in which the case was filed were not fully detailed in available source material; the relevant court docket — filed in the applicable U.S. District Court — would contain the precise charges, statutes cited, and names of all seven defendants.

The alleged event in question is identified in reporting as 'UFC Freedom,' a fight event associated with or held in proximity to the White House. Federal law enforcement agencies, which would include the FBI and potentially the U.S. Secret Service given the White House location, have not been identified by name in the available source material as the lead investigative agencies; their official press releases or the court complaint would confirm jurisdictional responsibility.

The case falls under federal jurisdiction given the alleged White House nexus. Charges related to plotting attacks on federal property or against the government typically invoke statutes including 18 U.S.C. § 2332b (acts of terrorism transcending national boundaries) or 18 U.S.C. § 844 (explosive offenses), though the specific statutes charged are unknown pending review of the court filing.

What remains unknown includes the full identities and states of residence of the six other defendants, the precise weapons and quantities allegedly stockpiled, the current detention status of all defendants, and whether any confidential informants or undercover agents were involved in the investigation. The publicly filed criminal complaint or indictment in the relevant U.S. District Court would answer each of these questions.

We Follow the Data, Not the Narrative

The Congressional Times exists because public records are public — and the analysis built from them should not be exclusive to those who can afford $60,000-a-year intelligence subscriptions.

Every story published in The Congressional Times is sourced to a verifiable public record: a court filing, a Senate lobbying disclosure, an FEC contribution record, a USASpending contract, or a verified news report. We state our sources inline. We show our math. When we are wrong, we say so publicly.

We do not editorialize in news coverage. We do not use loaded language. Both political parties are held to identical standards.

The Follow the Money investigations are the heart of this publication. Each begins with Gab-E Political Intelligence running against 10+ million government records before a single word of editorial is written.

How We Source, Verify, and Correct Our Work

Every factual claim in a Congressional Times story is checked against a primary source: a government filing, a court record, a direct quote, before publication. When a claim can't be verified or doesn't hold up as originally reported, we drop it or reframe it. We do not publish disputed claims as settled fact.

When we get it wrong: we correct the story directly, note the correction and date at the bottom of the piece, and update the record. We do not quietly edit and move on.

Bylines: stories with a named byline are written and fact-checked by that person. Stories without a byline are sourced from Gab-E Political Intelligence, our automated research platform, and are labeled as such.
