Gee, that’s too bad.

Now cancel his passport.

[Mariner]

Uncle Sam has some business with this guy.

[LegendHasIt]

Well, maybe he would be welcomed by Cuba or Venezuela.

They like his types in those places.

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

Communist governments tend to like Anti-First Amendment fascists so I am sure he would be welcomed with open arms.

[T.B. Yoits]

He's not a just an author and professor, he's a financier for Antifa.

"Bray himself is a financial backer of this transnational antifa bail fund. According to a disclaimer in his handbook, “at the very least,” 50% of proceeds from Bray’s book are funneled to the International Anti-Fascist Defense Fund."

Better to cancel his passport AFTER he leaves. NOT a smart move to hold him in the USA.

Antifa expert at Rutgers University says he is moving to Spain because of death threats

Mark Bray, an assistant professor of history, said Thursday that he decided to make the move out of concern for his family’s safety after being falsely labeled as a member of antifa, a term used to describe far-left activist groups that oppose fascism.

“I do not have any affiliation with any antifa group and don’t plan to,” said Bray, who wrote the book “Antifa: The Anti-Fascist Handbook,” which documents the philosophy and tactics of militant anti-fascist movements in the U.S. and around the world. He has taught courses on anti-fascism and terrorism at the university since 2019.

Although Bray says he is not a member of any antifa groups, which conservatives argue are responsible for political violence, he has donated half of the proceeds from his book to a legal-defense fund for people arrested while protesting fascism.

Unless the govt. plans to file charges against him.

[No name given]

Pronto.

[No name given]

And deservedly so.

[ProtectOurFreedom]

It’s smart to keep him here to get intel out of him. Or turn him into an asset.

[AZJeep]

From Google, he is more of an Antifa propagandist and ideologue, writing and publishing Antifa handbooks, etc.
Kind of Antifa’s own Goebbels.
It is unclear how much money he donated to Antifa, but surely, he is one of the leaders.
I think, the FBI will have some questions.

Anti-fascism expert? Come on Guardian! Who are you trying to fool?

[VTenigma]

That’s what happens when you go on social media and make it known you are fleeing the country. Adjunct professor is a dumbass. I’m reminded what the great sage Tuco once said.

[VanShuyten]

Thanks!

If they got him, he’s either a paymaster, facilitator, or a felon.
Running doesn’t look good either.

Again, I say Thank you, Mr. President.

[A strike]

any other nation would be free to return him to the US at will

[af_vet_1981]

Who me ?

One of the happist days in history was when the Anti-Fascist Protection Rampart was broken open and then torn down. Yes, that’s the official name of the Berlin Wall (in German: Antifaschistischer Schutzwall). So whenever you hear “anti-fascist” just translate it to “communist prison”.
