Peggy Flanagan Slammed Over Alleged Role in Organizing Against Federal ICE Operations

Online posts and screenshots circulating on social media allege that Minnesota Lieutenant Governor Peggy Flanagan appeared in or was connected to anti-ICE Signal chats during recent unrest tied to federal immigration enforcement.

The claims suggest activists used encrypted messaging to coordinate actions opposing deportations of criminal illegal immigrants. To date, no major outlet has independently verified Flanagan’s participation, and no official confirmation has been issued by her office.

Separately, Flanagan has publicly criticized the Laken Riley Act, reinforcing her opposition to tougher immigration enforcement. The allegations are fueling debate over Minnesota fraud, anti-ICE protests, and immigration enforcement amid heightened tensions.
