FBI Director Kash Patel said Monday that he had opened an investigation into the Signal group text chats that Minnesota residents are using to share information about federal immigration agents’ movements, launching a new front in the Trump administration’s conflict there with potential free speech implications.
Patel said in an interview with conservative podcaster Benny Johnson that he wanted to know whether any Minnesota residents had put federal agents “in harm’s way” with activities such as sharing agents’ license plate numbers and locations.



Probably the FBI stole someone’s phone, or they’ve joined the chat since the start.
Folks better start doing anti canary trap tactics. Once you shake the feds out, you can start composting.
Is it even possible? I mean, you need to share the chat, and probably have it publicly joinable.
Keeping feds out is basically impossible. Sharing the group only in person could work a bit, but I wouldn’t be surprised if they had undercover agents at any major gatherings.
Anti canary trap tactics? They work. It led to the Russian Revolution & Little Red books.
