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.
49.8% voted for this, more than any other option. 0.5% voted for RFK Jr so it’s highly likely that over 50% of people who felt bothered to actually vote seemed to be ok with it.
I suppose you could say they were misinformed, but people were pretty loud about it…
Am I the only person who remembers Trump all but admitting on national television that Musk rigged the voting machines in his favor?
And then all the highly irregular ballots that appeared that are, and I quote, “consistent with vote manipulation” as per the neutral third party assigned to investigate?
And then nobody investigated it at all because we “couldn’t be taken seriously about it” because of the huge Stop The Steal right wing uproar the prior election.
Don’t trust those reported numbers, they are almost certainly fabricated.
They also did everything they could to block, purge, or straight up steal Democrat votes. Any number coming from the gov’t at this point is likely bullshit.
