  1. Republicans love to believe that Antifa is some violent organization being run by Democrats, but that's not true. Here are the FACTS: 1) Antifa is a decentralized world-wide political movement that consists of hundreds of autonomous groups. It's not an organization run by any one person. It's not an organization that has any set of rules, bylaws, or even beliefs. 2) Antifa simply stands for Anti-fascism, and anyone who identifies as Antifa is simply saying "I stand against fascism." One individual may simply tweet against fascist leaders like Trump or DeSantis. Another individual might break windows and start fights with neo-nazis. Just like some Republicans are insurrectionists, and others are not, you can't lump all Antifa into one negative group. 3) The vast majority of those who cause violence in the name of being anti-fascist are anarchists and communists. Very few identify as being a Democrat. 4) No Democrats in office endorse or support any violence committed by someone who claims to be Antifa. We do support some of the peaceful protests by individuals who claim to be Antifa though. It's impossible to designate Antifa as a "domestic terrorists organization" because there is no general Antifa organization. This is just an attempt by Republicans to fearmonger yet again.
