The American President Donald Trump has designated the protest Movement Antifa as a Terrorist Organization, Trump Announced on Truth Social on Wednesday Night. However, how this will look in practice remains uncleear.
“I am pleased to inform American patriots that I am designating antifa as a terrorist organization,” Trump Writes. He calls antifa a “sick, radical, left-wing disaster.”
However, what is missing from the message is how the president will implement that decision in practice. The White House has also not communicated anything about this through official channels.
Antifa is an International Movement That Stands Up Against Fascism, Right-Wing Populism, And Racism. Supporters or Antifa are or present at demonstrations. There Are Hundreds of Local Antifa Movements in Different Countries, Including the US and the Netherlands. However, the Movement does not have an overarching organization.
Legal CONSEQUESCES STILL UNCLEAR
It is Still Unclear What Legal Consequenco Trump’s Announcement Will Have, Reports News Agency AP . Antifa is, Namely, A Movement That Is also Active in America, While the American List of Terrorist Organizations Can Only Consist of Foreign Movements. Extremist Terrorist Organizations Such as al Qaeda and Isis are on the list.
However, Domestic Movements Cannot Be Considered According to the Law. Organizations that are active within the us are protected by the American Constitution. There have been frequent calls to create a domestic terrorism law, but that has never happened.
There seems to be another obstacle. Antifa is not a centrally controlled organization, but an ideological movement without clear leadership or hierarchy, experts say. Christopher Wray is one of those experts. He was the fbi director from 2017 to 2025 This year and got that position duration trump’s first term.
The American Government is Tryping to Put Even Pressure on Left-Wing Political Opponents after the Murder of Charlie Kirk. The Republican’s are blaming the left, just though the suspect’s motive has not yet leg determined.
