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.
I get a weird feeling that Shatner might be on Epsteins list too.
I sure as hell hope not, but who the fuck knows anymore.
I dont care who is on the list. Left / right / other.
I just want to see the fucking list.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying that it’s an argument to keep the most hidden, I would 10000x rather know than not know. Ignorance isn’t a defense.
Regardless of who is on the list, someone needs to release that shit.
I get the feeling that it will only be released in one of two ways:
Or 2. By the next government. Probably still somewhat redacted, but probably way less than what would be seen if Trump releases them.
In the first scenario, they’ll probably run out of ink…
