Today's indictment charges the defendants with leading a transnational terrorist group dedicated to attacking America's critical infrastructure, targeting a hit list of our country's public officials, and carrying out deadly hate crimes - all in the name of violent white supremacist ideology.
Hate crimes fueled by bigotry and white supremacy, and amplified by the weaponization of digital messaging platforms, are on the rise and have no place in our society. This indictment charges the leaders of a transnational terrorist group with several civil rights violations, including soliciting others to engage in hate crimes and terrorist attacks against Black, immigrant, LGBT, and Jewish people.
Whether motivated by racial bias or antagonism toward government and societal norms, such behavior will not be tolerated.
The Terrorgram Collective allegedly promoted a white supremacist accelerationism ideology aimed at destabilizing democratic institutions to create a white ethnostate.
