Antifa Watch

House Ways and Means Committee Chairman Jason Smith (R-MO) has sent a letter to a DNC-aligned NGO that serves as the latest red flags that the “American” left and the CCP are working together against the same enemy, us, the Americans. His letter was sent to the People’s Forum in regard to its funding from Neville Roy Singham, an American expat now living the good life as a CCP favorite in Shanghai.

Other organizations with ties to CCP operatives include Americans for Justice in Palestine Educational Foundation, American Muslims for Palestine, Islamic Relief USA, Alliance for Global Justice, WESPAC Foundation, Tides Foundation, Palestinian Youth Movement, and People’s Media Project.

Time for Congress to expose CCP and terrorist linked NGO’s

Chinese Communist Party-funded nonprofit organizations have long spread radical antics by exploiting the generosity of the American taxpayer. It is time they face the public as they are held accountable by Congress.

Congress must hold a public hearing on these nonprofit organizations.

There it was right there in the middle of the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals decision that told elected officials they weren’t the boss over President Donald Trump federalizing the Oregon National Guard.

There was a list explaining the protest activity outside the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) HQ by Antifa, and the Portland Police Bureau’s enabling of the lawbreaking and antisocial behavior, including this item:

September 6, there were 50 to 60 “very active protest[e]rs/black blockers/agitators” at the gate. There was lots of noise, flashing lights, and swinging sticks. [Federal Protective Service] was pushing out to allow vehicles to enter, and the PPB observed approximately 50 people in the driveway. FPS had 26 officers on duty.

And here’s another example, carried out right under the noses of the Portland Police Bureau, which the court felt compelled to mention in the federal case.

Why? Because death threats against federal officers are not a small thing.

On September 9, screenshots were captured of threats on social media tomurder ICE officer.. (screenshot of posts stating “fed ain’t nothin but a target practice,” “Execute gestapo on sight,” and “Off The Pigs”). On September12, protesters photographed an unmarked government vehicle as it was leaving the ICE facility and then posted the photograph to a social media account and provided the location of the vehicle after it left the ICE facility.

A Los Angeles high school history teacher who serves as a spokesperson for a local anti-ICE activist group appeared to welcome armed resistance against immigration authorities after a federal agent and an illegal immigrant were shot hours earlier.

Ron Gochez, a teacher at Dr. Maya Angelou Community High School and a spokesperson for Union Del Barrio, spoke during a news conference Tuesday night where he criticized U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents.

“Don’t forget where you’re standing — this is South Central Los Angeles,” he said. “They [ICE] are not the only ones with guns in this city. Don’t forget that. And I don’t say that because I’m calling for violence; I’m saying that because the people have every right to defend themselves against masked, unidentified gunmen.”

Protesters participating in the “No Kings” demonstrations in New York City on Saturday were seen holding signs labeling several well-known Democrats and public figures as “Antifa,” including Gavin Newsom, Zohran Mamdani, Bernie Sanders, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and Jimmy Kimmel.

In a fiery press conference Tuesday, House Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-LA) accused Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) of intentionally extending the ongoing partial government shutdown in order to wait for a fresh round of “No Kings Day” protests on October 18, which Scalise referred to as a “hate America rally.”

Schumer has repeatedly accused Republicans of causing the ongoing shutdown, despite the fact that just three Democrats have voted in favor of a House-passed “clean” temporary measure that will fund the government through late November. The measure requires 60 votes to pass in the Senate, meaning that at least seven Democrats must vote in favor.

Conservative members of Canada’s Parliament are investigating the Antifa militant who allegedly threw a smoke bomb inside a Montreal church at which American pro-life Christian singer Sean Feucht was performing.

Last Thursday, a Parliamentary committee grilled Public Safety Minister Gary Anandasangaree about the incident that took place in July.

Conservative MP Dane Lloyd asked the minister, “There have been allegations made that there is an Antifa member who threw smoke bombs into a church service in Montreal this past summer.”

He added that the “allegations are that they’re a government employee that worked at a military base outside of Montreal. Are you aware of these allegations?”

Tensions flared outside the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility in Portland on Saturday as Antifa agitators squared off with federal law enforcement. Then an unexpected development occurred. A group of demonstrators arrived carrying a massive painting of conservative commentator Charlie Kirk.

The group sang “God Bless the USA” and chanted “We are Charlie Kirk” as federal agents stood between them and the crowd of left-wing agitators gathered nearby.

Kirk, a conservative American icon, was assassinated on September 10, 2025. The suspect is a far-leftist who had Antifa messages on his bullet casings.

Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison is claiming that Antifa, the decentralized far-left extremist group that was recently classified as a terrorist organization by President Donald Trump, does not exist. He has done so despite the existence of an infamous photo in which he openly supported the group.

Short for “antifascist,” the black-bloc group operates hundreds of chapters across the United States.

Antifa  is most infamous for their activities in the Pacific Northwest, where dozens members in cities like Portland and Seattle have been arrested for acts of political violence. Dozens of Antifa members were charged for setting fire to federal buildings in downtown Portland during the Black Lives Matter riots in 2020, the murder of a Trump supporter by a self-identified Antifa member in August of that year, and numerous acts of arson during the peak of unrest in 2020 and 2021.

Antifa cells have also been linked to several riots, bombing and acts of violence in Europe, prompting President Trump to state during a press conference last week that he will move to designate the group as a foreign terrorist organization. This would give prosecutors enhanced tools to prosecute members, as well as anyone found to be financing their activities.

President Donald Trump said he intended on designating Antifa a foreign terrorist organization following a roundtable on the terrorist group by center-right-leaning “independent” journalists.” The declaration happened during an exchange with journalist Jack Posobiec.

Trump was asked by a reporter if he would designate Antifa as a foreign, not just domestic terror group. He answered, “Well, has that been done? Pretty close, right? Would you like to see it done?” Posobiec answered, “Yes, Mr. President. They have foreign links all across Western Europe, the Middle East.” Trump responded, “We’ll take care of it.”

President Donald Trump said Wednesday that he would designate Antifa a foreign terrorist organization after a roundtable on the far-left extremist group with independent journalists,  Jack Posobiec, Nick Sortor, and others who have delivered tremendous on-the-ground reporting on Antifa.

While fielding questions from members of the press pool observing the roundtable, one reporter asked Trump if he would designate Antifa, which he has labeled a domestic terrorist group, as a foreign terrorist group.

“Well, has that been done? Pretty close, right? Would you like to see it done,” Trump asked, to which Posibeic immediately responded, “Yes, Mr. President.”

“They have foreign links all across Western Europe, the Middle East,” Posoibec added.

Trump added he would like to take such action, telling Secretary of State Marco Rubio, “We’ll take care of it.”

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton (R.) announced Tuesday that he has launched under­cov­er oper­a­tions into various left-wing terror cells in the state in response to rising political violence, most notably, the political assassination of TPUSA founder Charlie Kirk.

As part of the effort, the attorney general said undercover agents will be infiltrating identified “leftist terror cells” like Antifa.

“Leftist political terrorism is a clear and present danger. Corrupted ideologies like transgenderism and Antifa are a cancer on our culture and have unleashed their deranged and drugged-up foot soldiers on the American people,” Paxton said in a statement.

“The martyrdom of Charlie Kirk marks a turning point in America. There can be no compromise with those who want us dead. To that end, I have directed my office to continue its efforts to identify, investigate, and infiltrate these leftist terror cells. To those demented souls who seek to kill, steal, and destroy our country, know this: you cannot hide, you cannot escape, and justice is coming.”

President Donald Trump issued an Executive Order on September 22 officially designating Antifa as a domestic terrorist organization and instructed his administration to “utilize all applicable authorities to investigate, disrupt, and dismantle any and all illegal operations—especially those involving terrorist actions—conducted by Antifa.”

Republican Georgia Rep. Buddy Carter is urging the Department of Justice (DOJ) to investigate the network of organizations backed by billionaire megadonor George Soros for potential involvement in politically motivated violence, the Daily Caller News Foundation has learned.

In a letter sent Thursday to Attorney General Pam Bondi, Carter called for a “comprehensive and immediate” investigation into the Open Society Foundations and other groups backed by billionaire megadonor George Soros to “determine whether they are in violation of any federal laws related to domestic terrorism, material support for violence, or other illegal activities targeting Americans based on political beliefs.”

“There is growing concern, based on credible reporting, that George Soros’ Open Society Foundations have played a significant role in funding organizations associated with promoting political extremism and engage in or endorse actions that meet the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s definition of domestic terrorism,” Carter wrote.

“The funding of organizations that engage in, support, or incite political violence must not be tolerated,” the congressman, who is currently in a three-way Republican primary seeking to unseat Democratic Sen. Jon Ossoff, added.

Carter cited a recent report by the Capital Research Center (CRC), which found that Soros, through the Open Society Foundations, funneled more than $80 million to organizations that “engage in or endorse” actions fitting the FBI’s definition of domestic terrorism.

For instance, Open Society Foundations gave $400,000 to the Center for Third World Organizing (CTWO), which boasts it “threw down with people in the streets” during the George Floyd riots in 2020.

The study Burnett uses to justify her claims that right-wing extremism is worse cites rising left-wing extremist violence and includes Islamic terror as “right-wing.”

On Wednesday, the Trump administration held a roundtable with journalists who have been documenting and reporting Antifa activity specifically in the United States for at least a decade. President Trump and key leaders within his administration attended this meeting to hear first-hand accounts of the violence and mayhem caused by members of this group, but for CNN’s Erin Burnett, Antifa barely exists and “right-wing extremists” are worse.

Burnett played a clip of DHS Secretary Kristi Noem discussing Antifa networks, saying that it’s “just as sophisticated as MS-13, as TDA, as ISIS, as Hezbollah, as Hamas, as all of them.” Burnett was incredulous, indicating that Hamas was more legitimate since they’ve been engaged in a two-year war against Israel. Hamas’ efforts have been supported on American and international streets by Antifa, but Burnett didn’t mention that.

“And ISIS? These are incredible things to say,” Burnett said with a smirk. “And obviously I’m not going to sit here and defend anybody who considered themselves part of an Antifa movement, such that it is, but ‘such that it is’ is the operative part of that sentence. Antifa is far from a major sophisticated terror organization like Hezbollah, Hamas, or ISIS. In fact,” she went on, “it’s not even like far-right groups like The Proud Boys or Oathkeepers, which have national leaders like Antifa.”

“There is no organized hierarchy to the group,” Burnett went on. “And according to the Center for Strategic and International Studies, compared to right-wing extremists, Antifa-linked violence is rare and limited.” A study from the Center for Strategic and International Studies in September reads “2025 marks the first time in more than 30 years that left-wing terrorist attacks outnumber those from the violent far right.”

“It should be clear to all Americans that we have a very serious left-wing terror threat in our country, radicals associated with the domestic terror group antifa … and other far left extremists have been carrying out a campaign of violence against ICE agents and other officials charged with enforcing federal law,” Trump said, vowing to use all law enforcement resources to hunt them down and bring them to justice. “These are agitators, anarchists, and they’re paid,” Trump said. “You should see what we have on these people. These are bad people. These are people that want to destroy our country. We’re not going to let it happen.”

“When you see the signs and they’re all made out of a beautiful, beautiful paper, beautiful, nice, stiff, very expensive paper with beautiful wood handles all the same, all the same color, they come from very expensive printing machines, these are not people that write out their signs in a basement that believe in something.

Following a White House roundtable discussion on Antifa-linked and other far-left violence on Wednesday, President Donald Trump indicated that he is preparing to designate the black bloc militant group as a foreign terrorist organization.

The move comes on the heels of the president’s decision to label the black bloc organization as a foreign terrorist group last month. Designating the group as a foreign terrorist organization would give prosecutors expanded powers to prosecute members, as well as individuals found to be involved with financing and supporting the group.

On Wednesday, a number of leading reporters on Antifa violence, in addition to other experts, participated in a roundtable discussion headed up by President Donald Trump and Attorney General Pam Bondi. In attendance was Nick Sortor, a conservative journalist who was recently subjected to a controversial arrest by the Portland Police Bureau, and Andy Ngo, who is widely considered to be the leading voice on covering Antifa extremism in Portland and beyond.

Ngo suffered a brain bleed when he was brutally beaten by Antifa militants in Portland in 2019.

The U.S. Justice Department is opening an investigation into the Portland Police Bureau’s “questionable” practice surrounding weeks of sustained attacks and violent rioting targeting federal buildings and agents in the city.

The news was announced just hours after conservative journalist Nick Sortor was arrested by Portland Police after he was surrounded by a mob of far-left rioters, some of whom damaged his equipment and ultimately assaulted him. Despite the circumstances of the attack, Sortor was taken into custody and charged with disorderly conduct.

Just a day before, on-the-ground reporter Katie Daviscourt — who has consistently documented far-left and Antifa violence in Portland, Seattle and other cities — was assaulted with a metal poll. The incident was captured on camera, though the perpetrator was not arrested despite the fact that an officer was standing just feet away.

The Portland Police Bureau confirmed that one of its “dialogue liaison officers,” sworn officers tasked with “hold[ing] a safe space” for protesters, lost track of the suspect. The DLO followed the woman, who was described as a white female with a large septum nose piercing wearing a black mask and carrying a backpack, trying to talk to her to “hear her side of the story,” according to a news release from the department.
