White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said Monday that President Donald Trump intends to sign an executive order later that day to designate antifa as a domestic terrorist organization, citing a pattern of violent acts linked to the far-left movement.
"Antifa is going to be designated a domestic terrorist organization," Leavitt told reporters at the daily press briefing. "The president intends to sign that executive order very soon, as soon as it's drafted, as soon as today, later this afternoon. And this is something the president campaigned on, because we have seen a rise in violence perpetrated by antifa, radical people across this country who subscribe to this group."
Leavitt said the administration has documented numerous cases of antifa-linked violence, including some that received little attention from mainstream outlets and were "completely ignored by the previous administration." She highlighted several recent incidents by antifa, which stands for anti-fascist:
July 2025: Members of an antifa cell allegedly ambushed officers at an ICE facility in Alvarado, Texas, shooting one in the neck. July 2025: Three antifa members were charged with assaulting a police officer during a violent riot outside another ICE facility in Portland, Oregon. February 2024: A transgender antifa supporter allegedly detonated an explosive outside the office of Alabama's Republican attorney general. July 2020: Antifa members linked to the group Jane's Revenge firebombed pro-life centers and vandalized churches. January 2022: A suspected antifa member was arrested for bringing a pipe bomb to a pro-Trump event. January 2021: An antifa supporter threatened to shoot police officers and Trump supporters outside Florida's Capitol.

Federal Judge overturns this EO in 5...4...3...2...1...
You mean he has been talking about doing this for weeks and months and has never got around to it. I bet he waivers again and does not do anything.
I am tired of his rehashed promises and backing away from what he says. The money must be good if he threatens and then amends his plans. Follow the money.

No one cares what you think.

Right, I thought this was already done.. a week ago.
Any group funding Antifa is equally accountable.
I wonder if the same sources fund online activists.
True. The judges are as much an enemy as the Antifa thugs.
Chuck Schumer, months ago, beamed with pride and boasted that we appointed judges who are going to tie up everything Trump tries to accomplish.

You apparently do. You responded. :)
STFU
Can the President designate a Federal District Court as a terrorist organization?
Those were just tweets
Neville Roy Singman
Does that mean we can shoot them on sight?
International terror organization. Funders, enablers and members are evil individuals. Hooray President Trump!
To quote John Effin’ Kerry, “Where can I get me a huntin’ license?”
Pretty much.
Hamas has been a “terrorist” group for many years. How many are prosecuted, deported for giving aid and comfort to Hama?
How many will be prosecuted, etc for giving aid and comfort to Antifa?
Indeed open season
“Antifa members riot and burn government buildings demanding the government takes them off the terrorist listing. Warns of mostly peaceful protests if demands are not met to prove they are not a terror organization”
