White Supremacists Charged in Telegram Terror Plot
News summary

Dallas Humber, 34, and Matthew Allison, 37, have been charged with leading a digital terror group on Telegram, known as the 'Terrorgram Collective', which aimed to incite a race war and promote acts of violence against minorities and government officials. Prosecutors have accused them of soliciting hate crimes and murder, distributing bomb-making instructions, and maintaining a list of 'high-value targets' for assassination, including federal officials and a senator. The indictment describes their ideology as white supremacist 'accelerationism', advocating violence to achieve a white ethnostate. Assistant Attorney General Matthew Olsen highlighted the significant threat posed by this group, stating it was difficult to overstate the dangers they represented. Both defendants were arrested and are set to appear in court, though it remains unclear if they have legal representation. This case underscores the ongoing concerns regarding extremist activities facilitated by encrypted messaging platforms.
