Chris Stigall: Signalgate

SignalGate exploded last week when independent journalist Cam Higby released an undercover investigation that should shock every American.

Organized, encrypted networks of anti-ICE activists in Minneapolis using Signal chat groups to coordinate real-time interference with federal immigration enforcement—during one of the most volatile periods in the city’s recent history, following fatal ICE shootings.

These groups grew to nearly 1,000 members. Higby’s screenshots, videos, and audio capture activists tailing, surrounding, and blocking vehicles they believed to be ICE—including a near-violent swarm on Higby himself after misidentifying his car.

There was panic in the chats in the aftermath: members deleting accounts, scrubbing devices, talks of fleeing the state or country.

Minnesota State Rep. Alex Falconer admitted running some of those groups—along with local groups officials and outside funders. It was premeditated obstruction of federal officers and Attorney General Pam Bondi must act decisively.

Zero tolerance - the only response.
