A steep drop in membership if an example is ever made of one.

they should go after the paymasters, those who run their websites and provide command and control. In other words, Soros, numerous “professors”, some in big tech, many in the media, and a host of democrat “activists”.

Probably the biggest effect will not be arrests or asset forfeitures because antifa is a vaguely defined and mostly leaderless organization. It’s a fan club for looters.

The Left will go bonkers that one of their terrorist wings has been outlawed. They support individual freedom only when it’s the freedom to attack and terrorize anyone who is not a socialist.

Hopefully it means that Soros suffers the same fate as Osama Bin Laden, albeit in a shorter time frame.

Eisenhower and the Little Rock Crisis

Can you imagine armed troops blocking you from going to school? That’s what happened in Little Rock, Arkansas in the fall of 1957. Governor Orval Faubus ordered the Arkansas National Guard to prevent African American students from enrolling at Central High School. Central High was an all white school.

The 1954 Supreme Court decision Brown v. Topeka made segregation in public schools illegal. Governor Faubus defied this decision. He also defied a 1955 ruling (Brown II). The 1955 decision ordered that public schools be desegregated with all deliberate speed.

President Dwight D. Eisenhower was presented with a difficult problem. He wanted to uphold the Constitution and the laws, but also avoid a possible bloody confrontation in Arkansas, where emotions ran high. What do you think Eisenhower did?

President Eisenhower, who was vacationing in Newport, Rhode Island, arranged to meet Governor Faubus there to discuss the tense situation in Little Rock. In their brief meeting, Eisenhower thought Faubus had agreed to enroll African American students, so he told Faubus that his National Guard troops could stay at Central High and enforce order. Once back in Little Rock, Governor Faubus withdrew the National Guard. A few days later, 9 African American students slipped into the school to enroll and a full scale riot erupted. The situation quickly ran out of control, as Governor Faubus did nothing to stop the violence. Finally, the mayor of Little Rock appealed directly to President Eisenhower for help.

Eisenhower knew he had to act boldly. He placed the Arkansas National Guard under federal control and sent 1,000 U.S. Army paratroopers from the 101st Airborne Division to assist them in restoring order in Little Rock. The daring tactic worked and the African American students were enrolled without further violent disturbances. The law had been upheld, but Eisenhower was criticized both by those who felt he had not done enough to ensure civil rights for African Americans and those who believed he had gone too far in asserting federal power over the states.

Don’t really know but a quick google tells me that the FEDS can up the surveillance of the group.

And that members receiving training or distributing literature can be deemed “providing material assistance to a terrorist group” and be prosecuted whether an act of terrorism has actually resulted or whether the support was intended for terrorism or not.

I would think it would make it easier to question people about networks of who is paying for the agitation. It is putting Soros on notice if it can be traced back to him and it continues, then maybe there’s a legal basis to declare him an enemy combatant.

Of all those arrested during the many riots, surely some of them can be legally identified as Antifa. Will the US Attorneys in those jurisdictions have them arrested? And if so, how will they be charges? Certainly there will be video tapes proving their violent actions, but is that enough?
