I'm actually inclined to believe these are feds, because it's more believable that the police would stage a false-flag and pretend to put some feds in jail for propaganda, than it is that they'd actually arrest white nationalists
Don't get too conspiratorial. non-state paramilitaries are still a challenge to the state's monopoly on the legitimate use of force. If they were going to do something that would embarrass the police, or if the feds are leaning on the police, it's easy enough to arrest all these guys. They can just let them go in a few hours, or drop charges later.
Yeah them getting arrested actually leads me to believe there were legitimate informants in their ranks since I’m sure that would come out and it looks like these guys were serious about fucking some people up

NPR reported on the arrest this morning. Its all misdemeanor charges. They'll get slapped on the wrist and sent home
Some of them are on probation.
Not all of them are going home.
That's something, at least.

These aren't feds.
Most have been arrested before for assorted chuddery like defacing LGBT and BLM murals.
