Sez the #fascist! #Trump says he’ll designate #Antifa as a terrorist group but offers few detailsBy SEUNG MIN KIMUpdated 9:43 PM EDT, September 17, 2025WASHINGTON (AP) — "President Donald Trump said early Thursday that he plans to designate antifa as a 'major terrorist organization.'"Antifa, short for '#AntiFascists,' is an umbrella term for far-left-leaning militant groups and is not a singular entity. They consist of groups that resist fascists and #NeoNazis, especially at demonstrations."It’s unclear how the administration would label what is effectively a decentralized movement as a terrorist organization, and the White House on Wednesday did not immediately offer more details."Trump, who is on a state visit to the United Kingdom, made the announcement in a social media post shortly before 1:30 a.m. Thursday local time. He called antifa a 'SICK, DANGEROUS, RADICAL LEFT DISASTER.' He also said he will be 'strongly recommending' that funders of antifa be investigated."Antifa is a domestic entity and, as such, is not a candidate for inclusion on the State Department’s list of foreign terror organizations. Dozens of groups, including extremist organizations like the Islamic State and al-Qaida, are included on that list. The designation matters in part because it enables the #JusticeDepartment to prosecute those who give #MaterialSupport to entities on that list even if that support does not result in violence."There is no domestic equivalent to that list in part because of broad #FirstAmendment protections enjoyed by organizations operating within the United States. And despite periodic calls, particularly after mass shootings by #WhiteSupremacists, to establish a #DomesticTerrorism law, no singular statute now exists."
