Democratic and Republican officials on Sunday took aim at groups like Antifa and Boogaloo as well as demonstrators from out of town as responsible for violent episodes at protests in major cities across the country. President Donald Trump tweeted that he was designating Antifa as a terrorist organization.
That followed Trump and Attorney General William Barr earlier pointing to anti-fascist organizers and anarchists as culprits behind the mayhem following the death of a 46-year-old black man, George Floyd, at the hands of Minneapolis police. Others said right-wing extremists such as Boogaloo followers, who hope to bring about a second Civil War, were pushing for such uprising in the protests.

Feds should lock up CNN, NBC, CBS,etc. "journalists" who encourage and promote terrorism.

This is so obvious.
If the instrument of choice is terror, then the perpetrators are terrorists.
Our nation is in danger.
By any means possible, stop them!

And, of course, NBC tries to make this all about "right wing" organizers by conflating some tiny, marginal group called boogaloo with the vast, well-funded array of left-wing Antifa style groups actual at fault here.

The DOJ needs to follow the money and find out who's funding these terrorists. Take everything they own through the RICO act. (Can anyone say Soros?)

Long past time. This international organization infiltrated our country and has caused endless chaos. Problem is that they have become the poster children. the blanket designation, for a wide range of domestic terrorist organizations that are not Antifa plus a ragtag bunch of opportunists who belong to no organization - or maybe local gangs - and seize the moment when there’s a riot in progress, joining in, looting, burning, and very often getting away with it.
500 persons were arrested last night in Los Angeles. The latest feckless sheriff, Villanueva, was on TV this morning that all but 18 were released as most of the 500 were arrested for “failure to disperse”. Only 18 remained in jail for such things as looting and arson. We watched more than 18 black men and women racing in and out of just ONE store in Los Angeles, carrying clothes and shoe boxes…
Go after Antifa - but it is the tip of a very large iceberg, IMO...

How are the police to tell the difference between law abiding sincere protestors and the violent activists & antifa when they are all mixed together in a crowd? Even the legit protestors can accidently get caught up in the mayhem! At this point, it would be best for the sincere protestors to not come out every evening and, in so doing, inadvertantly contribute to concealing antifa perps among the crowd. Help the police address the violent lawbreakers who are there simply to participate in anarchy by avoiding the nightly crowd.

Designate George Soros a terrorist for funding these people while you’re at it.

The reason to designate antifa as a terrorist organization is because it IS a terrorist organization.
Good news.

They will just organize under a different name. Nevertheless, this was an awesome decision. Why make it easy on Soros and his cabal who want nothing more than the destruction of this country. I wish a covert operation would be activated to find Soros and hand deliver him to Hungary or Russia. They would take care of him pronto.

If there are any ‘real’ FBI agents working they can get all the NSA spy data on emails, text messages, phoneme pings and send organizers to prison & subject them to paying riot damages to store owners.

While he's at it - - President Trump should also give the terrorist designation to the demonrats.
Why waste time going back and forth?

This has got nothing to do with racism. It's a coup by left-wing groups. They are using as an excuse the beating of a black man.

In cities around north Texas someone is placing stacks of bricks on sidewalks in areas that will be occupied by protesters. It's extremely obvious and I am hoping that the local police can obtain surveillance video to determine who is doing it.

In order to find out who the agitators are....you have to arrest them, a lot of them, and then question them. It's pretty stupid to stand by and watch people destroy stuff and not even know who they are because you don't arrest them.

Good! NOW, cut off the head of the snake. Call for the arrest and extradition of George Soros on charges of funding terrorism. Freeze his assets. Cut him off and corner him like the rat he is.
Goodness knows the Earth herself will breathe a huge sigh of relief the day that demon filled hate monger finally breathes his last!

FAR: ''How are the police to tell the difference between law abiding sincere protestors and the violent activists & antifa when they are all mixed together in a crowd?''
The police won't have time to sort out who is who. I would advise sincere protesters to stay away from the Antifa thugs. It's not hard to do. Otherwise, go to jail and explain it to the law, or maybe a judge. Also, don't wear Antifa garb and carry potential weapons. Disperse when ordered by the police.
See? It's really not hard!

Exactly #19. All this mask crap doesn't help. No masks!! We need to dispense with the Covid kabuki. These Dem mayors who allowed and even participated in all these protests showed that it is all a farce anyway.

Cor-Vet (#4) you said it well.
Antifa SHOULD have been designated a terrorist group years ago.
It took President Trump to actually DO it.
Trace the money....trace the organization..... then use RICO laws to BREAK them!

Well the American Communist Legal Unit (ACLU) has already come out and said that the President does not have legal authority to declare that ANTIFA is a domestic terrorist group. So if the President follows through on his declaration, look for Adam Schiff and Jerold Nadler to swing into action with another impeachment investigation claiming that the President exceeded his authority during the riots looking towards again impeaching the President and removing him from office.

It's about time.
Why are there political organizations and media corporations who keep exonerating these pro-fascists groups?
They smash windows and burn cars and destroy property and nothing ever happens to them.

#18, we would need to get his sons too - he has already groomed them to take over his mischief when he’s gone. We need to throw them all into Gitmo and make sure that they share cells with the worst Muslim terrorists available.

American parents will not tolerate the sons and daughters they sent to get an "education" at their favorite "university", to be tried, convicted and hanged as "patriotic" members of Antifa.

I agree with the above posters that those organizing and paying for these riots should be identified and put in jail. It's time to get to the top of things. I don't want to wait for Lindsey Graham to get to the bottom of things.

Why are anarchists, socialists and always discontented Democrats rioting over the death of Pink Floyd? The English rock group may no longer be performing, but their albums are still available. Makes little sense, especially since Pink Floyd is one of the most commercially successful and influential bands in popular music history. I don’t understand leftists.
What’s depressing is that the anti News media will always mention the nonexistent “white supremists” whenever they mention ANTIFA and/or the rioters. Certain that the AP has already placed white supremist in its style book for the riots.

2nd Post: If the DOJ follows the money, they'll find out it leads back to Piglousi and her subversive demonrats who doled it out by the millions. They find Gates at the end of any financial forensics too. Can't have that, so ergo, another fake investigation.
