President Donald Trump said he is designating the far-left anti-fascism movement Antifa as a terrorist organization, announcing the move on his Truth Social platform in the early hours of Thursday morning UK time.
It wasn’t immediately clear what mechanism Trump would use to make the designation, and Antifa lacks centralized structure or defined leadership, making it unclear who or what precisely would be targeted.
“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,” Trump wrote. “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!”
A White House official told CNN, “This is just one of many actions the president will take to address left wing organizations that fuel political violence.”
Trump — who’s overseas for a formal state visit — signaled the move earlier this week in remarks from the Oval Office following the murder of conservative activist Charlie Kirk.
Give it time. Black folk will be labeled as Antifa agents.
Anti ANTIFA? That’s just fascist with extra steps.
Designate a concept as a terrorist organization, and then you can label anyone you don’t like as antifa so you can prosecute them.
It’s ridiculous how far the US is now into fascism. If the frog knew any history it would know what it means to be in a nice pot with warm water on top of a stove.
This feels like those theatre plays for children where the wolf is hiding behind the main character and all the children are shouting “the wolf is there!!” While the main character remains oblivious.
He will label ActBlue as antifia. Its how a lot of progressive gather money to fund their campaigns. So AOC etc will either have to turn to super Pacs and fall inline or get no support.
Just watch they already mentioned investigating them before.

It’s annoying to explain
Because it’s actually quite simple
So listen closely
Because I’ll say it only onceIf you’re anti-ANTIFA you are FA You can say what you want
But that’s the truth
And I wish I didn’t have to constantly be against something But how is that supposed to work with all those goddamn Nazi pigs?And if it annoys you to hear that that’s not my problem
but your problem… not hard to understand at all.I could take care of nice things
We could take care of nice things
Instead, we have to deal with the scumIf you’re anti-ANTIFA you are FA You can say what you want
But that’s the truth
And I wish I didn’t have to constantly be against something But how is that supposed to work with all those goddamn Nazi pigs?How is that supposed to work?
How is that supposed to work?
How is that supposed to work, please?US govt going mask off.
Against fascism? Terrorist
Against Trump? Terrorist
Pro-LGBT? Terrorist
Pro-free speech? Believe it or not, terrorist
You undercook fish, terrorist, you over cook chicken, terrorist.
Terrorism is the enemy of the “free world” because it’s a way for those being exploited to fight back without paying into the MIC.
Is antifa in the room with us right now?
It sure fucking is
It is now!
This is going to lead to an escalation of political violence.
If something as nebulous as antifa is “terrorist”, then it’s easy for anyone to be classified as a terrorist. See also what is going on in the UK with Palestine Action. But instead of embarrassed unarmed bobbies doing the arresting, in the US it will be masked, unidentified goons, mirroring ICE practices. So that lowers the threshold to drop into a “homo sacer” category that can be basically shot on sight. Which means, more people will have nothing to lose. Which means more political violence.
Oh, he learns from the israeli despot.
First they came for the communists <- You are here.
Can’t wait for everyone he doesn’t like to be branded antifa.
He’s Facist and AntiFa is short for Anti-Facist
Makes sense from his fantasy version of the world.
Can’t wait for him to fall asleep in public and not wake-up
Trump Jnr was on some show a few days ago explaining how Antifa stands for Anti-Fascist but that they’re using the tools of fascists and are become fascist themselves.
This is how they will explain it to the sheep in red hats
