Subleski is a member of the militia known as the United Pharaoh’s Guard, a group that identifies as “Boogaloo Bois,” according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Western District of Kentucky,
Boogaloo adherents are part of a loose pro-gun extremist movement that observers describe as having no coherent political philosophy. Their nickname is a reference to a slang term for a sequel - in this case, a second U.S. civil war that many followers advocate for.
Subleski is charged with using a facility of interstate commerce to incite a riot and committing an act of violence in furtherance of a riot.
