Tucker: Antifa has support of ‘respectable Left’ amid calls for ‘direct action’ following ICE attack
The National Sentinel ^ | 7/16/19 | Jon Dougherty

Posted on 07/16/2019 6:45:15 AM PDT by SleeperCatcher

On his Monday night program, Fox News’ Tucker Carlson discussed the recent attack by an armed Antifa supporter against an ICE detention facility in Tacoma, Wash., noting that members of the group now have the support of the “respectable Left” in America as elements call for more “direct action” against “fascist” government facilities.

Willem Van Spronsen, 68, allegedly released a manifesto stating “I am Anfita” before taking an AR-15 with him on Saturday to firebomb the facility, which he believed was a “concentration camp.” The attack was celebrated by many on the left and Spronsen was hailed as a hero on social media.

As many have noted including Carlson, the so-called “mainstream” media has essentially ignored the story. The Seattle Times and local news affiliates covered the attack but it didn’t make the national news feeds — and it should have because it was clearly an act of domestic terrorism.

I can believe it. Think about it: the only way a straight white man can get any respect from today’s left is to martyr themselves for the cause.


exactly. i’m sure others in his antifa terror cell put him up to it or at least nudged him a little. no different than an isis terror cell, they have their suicide attackers, just like this guy was one for an antifa cell in Washington.

This is a good thing. We need many more “tributes” like this one ... and we’ll likely see many more if antifa continues on their path of America- and American-hating violence. They’re in a very dangerous place and don’t even seem to realize their peril.

The prep was a suicidal ATIFA supporter who wanted to go out in an act of defiance. If he was wearing a MAGA hat it would have been armageddon in the media. Instead the left is trying to spin a useless gesture.
