Sept. 22 President Donald Trump signed an executive order Monday, designating Antifa a «domestic terrorist organization.»
The order comes nearly two weeks after Trump vowed to label the «anti-fascist» group as terrorist, following the assassination of conservative commentator Charlie Kirk. Trump and other Republicans have blamed Antifa for political violence, in addition to the riots following George Floyd’s murder.
In signing Monday’s order, government agencies will be given a mandate to investigate Antifa operations.
