"Well, it's something I would do, yeah. If I have support from the people back here I think we'd start with Pam, I think. But I would if you give me I would do that 100%, and others also, by the way. But Antifa is terrible. Trump then added that there were other groups he would also consider designating as domestic terror organizations, remarking, They have some pretty radical groups and they got away with murder."
"These aren't protests, these are crimes what they're doing. Trump received renewed calls to go after Antifa which has a lengthy history of engaging in violence following the assassination of Kirk at Utah Valley University last week. While there is not yet any indication that the suspect in the shooting Tyler Robinson had ties to Antifa, he did etch several anti-fascist slogans onto his bullet casings, including, Hey fascist! Catch! along with the lyrics to the Italian anti-fascist song Bella Ciao."
Consideration is underway to designate Antifa and other far-left radical groups as domestic terrorist organizations and to pursue RICO charges against individuals allegedly funding violent agitation. The initiative gained momentum after the assassination of Charlie Kirk at Utah Valley University, where the suspect etched anti-fascist slogans onto bullet casings, though no clear organizational ties have been confirmed. Officials described Antifa as engaging in violence and called for identifying, disrupting, dismantling, and destroying left-wing groups that promote violence. Promises were made to pursue NGOs and financiers that facilitate or foment violent activity and to treat such actions as crimes rather than protests.
