ANTIFA DESIGNATED AS A DOMESTIC TERRORIST ENTITY: In a significant move, President Donald J. Trump has officially signed an Order labeling Antifa as a domestic terrorist organization.
- This Order characterizes Antifa as a militant anarchist group advocating for the overthrow of the U.S. government and the legal system. Its methods, unfortunately, include illegal activities, violence, and outright terrorism to achieve its objectives.
- The directive also instructs federal agencies to investigate, disrupt, and dismantle any illegal operations associated with Antifa, as well as tracking down the financial sources that support these activities.
COMBATING POLITICAL VIOLENCE ASSOCIATED WITH ANTIFA: Antifa’s actions are described as coordinated assaults on the enforcement of federal laws, utilizing coercion and intimidation to push their policy goals. This practice clearly aligns with the definition of domestic terrorism.
- Instances include armed confrontations with law enforcement, orchestrated riots, and violent assaults against officers, particularly those from ICE, which have seen attacks skyrocket by 1000%. For example, a group linked to Antifa in Portland has doxxed ICE officers by revealing their personal information online.
- Additionally, journalists covering protests have not been spared; one was violently attacked by Antifa supporters while reporting on a demonstration in Portland.
- During a recent Patriot March in Pacific Beach, California, Antifa members resorted to pepper spray and physical violence against Trump supporters, highlighting their readiness to escalate confrontations.
RESTORING LAW AND ORDER: The safety of every American is paramount. President Trump reaffirms his commitment to reinstating law and order across the nation.
- President Trump remarked: “I’m proud to let our many U.S.A. Patriots know that I am designating ANTIFA, A SICK, DANGEROUS, RADICAL LEFT DISASTER, AS A MAJOR TERRORIST ORGANIZATION. I will strongly recommend thorough investigations into those funding ANTIFA, adhering to the strictest legal standards.”
- His administration has been unyielding in its fight against terrorism—designating drug cartels as foreign terrorist organizations and even executing military actions against narcoterrorists.
- To combat urban violence, President Trump has also mobilized federal resources, deploying the National Guard in cities such as Los Angeles, Washington, D.C., and Memphis.
