The president cannot legally declare antifa a terrorist organization: https://www.politico.com/news/2020/05/31/trump-antifa-terrorist-organization-legal-292785

  The legality of antifa as a terrorist organisation aside, there are numerous examples since the civil war of presidents using the military outside the scope of posse comitatus act. It's ironic that you can burn down a business and the political infrastructure says it's fine, yet try to open your salon or attend a church mass and your arrested.

  Perhaps the Justice Department has discovered foreign ties to Antifa that makes the designation legal.

    Foreign ties like 75 years of postwar philosophical resistance to fascism around the planet?

      An organization that says they're anti-fascism doesn't necessarily have to act anti-fascism.
      • eyelidlessness 6y ago
        It's not an organization. The literal only feature and requirement of "antifa" is being anti-fascist.

          Not what Project Veritas has revealed.
          • eyelidlessness 6y ago
            Project Veritas is a comically fraudulent nonsense that has repeatedly fabricated everything it's "exposed". Ayfkm?
