President Trump revealed he is prepared to classify ANTIFA as a terrorist organization, emphasizing his intention to take action while seeking input from his Cabinet, particularly Pam Bondi. During an exchange, Trump stated he would “do that 100%” if supported by the public and officials, adding that other groups also face scrutiny. He criticized ANTIFA as “terrible” and highlighted what he described as violent actions by radical organizations, including clashes involving ICE and border patrol. Trump also mentioned discussions with the attorney general about using RICO laws against individuals funding unrest, calling such activities “crimes” rather than protests.
