Donald Trump officially declared American Antifa's designation of "a crucial terrorist organization". The U.S. president posted a message on his actual Social social social networking site during a visit to the UK.
"I am pleased to inform many American Patriots that I am qualifying ANTIFA, DISEASURE, SAFE, COUNCILALLY LEVIOUS CATASTROF, AS A crucial TERRORIST ORGANISATION. I will besides powerfully urge a thorough examination of the funders of ANTIFA, according to the highest standards and legal practices" - wrote Trump. This entry was posted late at night British time.
President's earlier announcements
Trump has already signalled support for this step, announcing actions against leftist organisations. He blames them for promoting political force and for killing activist Charlie Kirk.
The president planned a akin decision already during his first word after anti-police riots following George Floyd's death. In the end, however, he did not do so due to opposition within the administration.
Objection to the FBI
Former FBI chief Christopher Wray was against the plan. He claimed that he could not consider any national organization to be terrorist due to the fact that it would violate the constitutional freedoms of members of these groups.
Critics besides pointed out that Antifa was not a classical organization. The anti-fascist movement originating in Germany is simply a loose collection of different groups without central structure and leaders.
Legal doubts
It is unclear what, in practice, Trump's announcement in the American legal strategy means. There is no formal category of "significant terrorist organization" in US law, but only "foreign terrorist organisations".
Entry on the list of abroad terrorist organizations gives the American authorities extended opportunities to prosecute members of the organization. They can besides operate outside the US for supporting their activities or funding.
