President Trump announces the U.S. will designate Antifa as a terrorist organization, Fox News reported. Finally! The far-left group is a self-described communist anarchist organization set on burning down all of America’s institutions and values. This is well-documented. They are very open about it.
“The United States of America will be designating ANTIFA as a Terrorist Organization,” Trump tweeted Sunday afternoon.

“It’s ANTIFA and the Radical Left. Don’t lay the blame on others!” Trump tweeted Saturday.

The left is trying to blame it on white supremacists. If so, if white supremacists are responsible, that would have to be the first time white supremacists launched a riot on behalf of a black person. That would be an alternative universe.
Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and Attorney General Bill Barr said the actions they’ve witnessed are Antifa-like. They were less definitive.
A resolution to designate Antifa as a domestic terrorist organization was introduced in the Senate in 2019, stating that Antifa “represents opposition to the democratic ideals of peaceful assembly and free speech for all[.]”
The measure, sponsored by Sen. Bill Cassidy, R-La., and co-sponsored by Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, came in response to threats and actions Antifa-affiliated individuals made against ICE officials and journalist Andy Ngo.

Designating homegrown terrorists who lives in mama’s basement for what they are sounds like a step in the right direction to mean. Yes, it can be abused by the feds, just like the Patriot Act was after 911. But Antifa has proven itself, especially in recent days, to be enemy combatants. If anybody deserves to be classified as a terrorist organization Antifa certainly more than qualifies.
@ Greg,
It’s called sarcasm. Lighten up now. Focus on the enemy. We can go back to keyboard commando action after the big victory.
Also this doesn’t mean that the law enforcement arm of the deep state is going to be doing anything to the brownshirt arm of the deep state.
It is Now serious. Complain all you want about “capitalist pig corporations” but No society OR civilization can withstand and survive this sedition. It is NOW a response to “Terrorism”, no different than 9-11. From DOJ.
(Federal law enforcement actions will be directed at apprehending and charging the violent radical agitators who have hijacked peaceful protest and are engaged in violations of federal law.
To identify criminal organizers and instigators, and to coordinate federal resources with our state and local partners, federal law enforcement is using our existing network of 56 regional FBI Joint Terrorism Task Forces (JTTF).
The violence instigated and carried out by Antifa and other similar groups in connection with the rioting is domestic terrorism and will be treated accordingly.”)
@ Greg,
Those evil capitalist pig corporations will write it off and the comrades don’t want them to go away for good. Just read that Colin K is doing quite well with the Nike ad campaign money.
Another article was about a Nike outlet in Chicago removing some of the fortress type façade that was put up after one of the Bulls championship riots, well it got hit by undocumented shoppers recently.
Do people ever say what a minute these people talking about terrible evil racist America are worth millions?
Okay, Mr. Anarchist. I guess we can destroy it ALL so we can be like Venezuela. Life’s a bitch isn’t it. Live with it, or Destroy it. People like you have NO constructive arguments only whining.
They won’t burn down Apple, Google, Twitter, Fakebook, Nike, Starbucks, Microsoft and others.
The ACLU will get riled up in 3, 2, 1.
Actually, quite a few Starbucks were burnt to the ground. Apple Mac stores looted.
