President Trump announced on Constitution Day that he is officially designating Antifa a domestic terrorist organization. Making the announcement on TruthSocial, he wrote:
“I am pleased to inform our many U.S.A. Patriots that I am designating ANTIFA, A SICK, DANGEROUS, RADICAL LEFT DISASTER, AS A MAJOR TERRORIST ORGANIZATION. I will also be strongly recommending that those funding ANTIFA be thoroughly investigated in accordance with the highest legal standards and practices. Thank you for your attention to this matter!”
Although the words sound strong, Antifa is more of a terrorist network that has no centralized structure or leadership. Rather than hierarchical, it’s a loose conglomerate of cells of terrorists and adherents who coordinate actions across the nation. These individuals can morph into other group-action names with little notice. Trump made no announcement on his official White House website and his action appears to be part of his response to the assassination of Christian patriot Charlie Kirk.
What are your thoughts about Trump’s designation of Antifa as a terrorist organization? Leave them in the comment section below.
Like the typical radical leftist extremists that they are, those behind “Antifa” (sic) are exactly the opposite of what they claim to be. THEY are the true fascists, suppressing free speech and using violence to further their totalitarian political ends.
Radical leftism is both a mental illness and evil.
Its five years late
These radical leftists if they were classified as terrorists five years ago then maybe Charlie Kirk could still be with us
My grandfather fought the Nazi’s in WWII. He was anti-fascist, round him up !
Maybe the issuance of a,stamp for them , like the federal waterfowl stamp, allowing hunting them would help?
