Sure you got the correct source for that excerpt?

Ummm, the Communists killed 7 million Ukrainians by starving them to death... but who's counting...
stunned. Time prints what is in essence a defense of Trump.
Gee, poll numbers must be in and it must be horrible for dems after protecting and supporting antifa for them to turn on them now.
Allow the legal formation of anti-ANTIFA vigilante militas , with a shoot to kill permission .
Antifa = terrorists. Should simply refer to them as Antifa terrorists. They are Democratic-inspired and Democratic-defended.
Leftist hate the term alt left. It’s awesome. Make sure you include BLM with Antifa in it.
‘Rats are afraid that their minions will turn on them.
It was a term of derision adopted by Hilary and the media to undermine Trump. Well, they invented it, we can use it, and its weaponized value is demonstrated by the degree of howling that was raised when we started calling these thugs alt-left. Secret societies who go around armed wearing concealing uniforms sound an awful lot like the fascists, Hitler jugend and browns shirts of yore.

Pelosi Statement Condemning Antifa Violence in Berkeley
Democratic Leader ^ | August 29, 2017 | Nancy Pelosi
Just as the petty tyrants from the Ctrl-Left abandoned their “Russia” “Russia” shrieks, they seem to be abandoning their open support for terrorism on our streets. Even leftists can learn! Who knew?
I wonder what their next obsession will be.
Polling re Dems and Antifa must be disastrous. In the last day or so the lefty press have switched in lockstep from “antifa good” to “antifa very, very bad”. Shades of Molotov-Ribbentrop.
Antifa is not in any way some sort of “Alt-Left” nor should any conservative use that term for it.
Antifa is just normal, everyday leftism. Make them wear it.
Alternate Left is in appropriate. The thugs and goons are main stream left. The disruptors are the left.
There is no Alt about them. They are the children of the mainstream of Barack Obama and bill Ayers and Hillary Clinton and Richard Trumka
Something FLIPPED the Left into now wanting to call off their Brownshirts, at least temporarily.
I wouldn’t be surprised if something behind the scenes was going on, like an investigation into just who is behind their violence - and something is going to break. It seems now that they feel a need to be on record, so they can respond such as “...who, little ole us, why we are (now) denouncing that violence. You guys must have us confused with someone else.”
Something is DEFINITELY going on - they seemed to have gotten a lot of mileage by blaming, exclusively, the 300 to 400 Nazis and KKK types in this country for all the violence...but now they’re starting to tell the truth? Something is definitely going on...and we’ll likely find out sooner than later.
The proper term is ‘ctrl-left’. Much more truthful and descriptive.
