Jack Posobiec, senior editor at Human Events and author of The Antifa: Stories From Inside the Black Bloc, told Breitbart News on Monday that the removal of President Donald Trump has emboldened Antifa.
Antifa sees ousting the Trump administration as a victory, Posobiec stated in an interview on SiriusXM’s Breitbart News Daily with host Alex Marlow, author of Breaking the News: Exposing the Establishment Media’s Hidden Deals and Secret Corruption.
Posobiec noted the widespread adoption of its “defund the police” narrative among Democrats, their allied media, and the broader left has energized Antifa.
He remarked, “They are definitely on the upswing, and they see the removal of Trump. They see … the defunding of many of these police organizations [and] police departments as getting everything they ask for, and they’ve had now a major taste of victory, and they’re looking for other targets. They are looking for more opportunities to be able to flex their power, to flex their muscle, and they’re flush with this corporate backing, with the backing of many of these mainstream media organizations. They want to go out there and go after every single vestige of the conservative movement until it is gone.”
The refusal of local authorities in Portland, Oregon, to stop Antifa’s ongoing violent conduct further invigorates the leftist group, Posobiec held.
He remarked, “If you look up at a place like the city of Portland, you could easily make the argument that Antifa has been one of the most effective extremist organizations in America, because they have actually succeeded now in dismantling a specific portion of government, the rapid response unit of the Portland police department. These are the people that are called out for civil, unrest events.”

Clean up the city and start over.
And they still don’t give a tinker’s damn what ‘most’ Americans want or don’t want.

That’s because we have kept electing the same sorts of people, while sitting back contentedly and being so content that we have fallen asleep allowing others to assume the burden and no matter how much we are abused we still do nothing - sort of like dead people
“So which method really works?”
I doubt I’ll live long enough to see it, or that it will happen soon enough to save the Republic, but I believe the Left has begun to self-destruct.
The Left has spent the last 100 years deceiving the public into believing they are the good guys - that they are the compassionate ones - that they are the defenders of the little guy - that they are the protectors of minorities and the downtrodden.
They have used propaganda effectively to convince the people that they want to protect the planet from industrial pollution - that they want equality for women and minorities - that we on the Right are selfish, racist, homophobic and full of hate.
It’s all lies and always has been, but they worked very hard to shape public opinion that way - and they succeeded.
Now they feel invincible and are reaping the fruits of their success. They no longer seem to care what people think.
It won’t happen soon enough for me, but eventually they will lose the support of the public if they continue to encourage stolen elections, chaos at the border, blatant anti-white racism, inner city violence and America Last globalism.
Without public support, they will wither and die.
Unfortunately, it will take decades for such shift…
its so sad whats happened to human events.... used to be a stellar publication. I am still flummoxed as to why they or whoever resuscitated the mag hired grifters like Ian Cheong and Posobiec of rape Melania fame.
The brown shirts are back.
