President Donald Trump has vowed to designate Antifa as a foreign terrorist organization after a White House roundtable discussion exposed the violent leftist group’s global ties.
The group has already been identified as a domestic terrorist group.
However, proponents of the move say Antifa is heavily funded by foreign interests, Breitbart reported.
The subject arose in a question from the press, and Trump seemed open to the idea and perhaps even under the impression that it was already in the works.
Independent journalists Jack Posobiec and Nick Sortor were part of Wednesday’s panel discussion with the president.
“Well, has that been done? Pretty close, right?” Trump said to Posobiec
“Would you like to see it done?”
Posobiec responded, “Yes, Mr. President.”
Secretary of State Marco Rubio said he’d “take care of it,” and White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller also said it was something he’d agree to do.
“Yes, it’s true,” Miller explained.
“There are extensive foreign ties, and I think that would be a very valid step to take.”

As Posoibec noted, Antifa has “foreign links all across Western Europe, the Middle East,” but has caused a great deal of chaos in the U.S. already.
Trump invited the independent journalists to speak with him at the White House over those concerns, especially considering that Sortor was arrested by Portland police while attempting to cover the escalating Antifa protests against Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
For his part, Sortor showed off the Cabinet officials and the press, presenting an American flag he snatched from demonstrators who attempted to burn it.
The journalist told Trump that he knew the identity of the man who had done this, and Trump instructed him to share the information with Attorney General Pam Bondi so she could “start prosecutions.”
Posobiec also brought proof of Antifa’s aim and dangerous messaging, including what the suspected assassin, Tyler Robinson, allegedly etched onto the bullets meant for Charlie Kirk.
“Thank you for mentioning the fact that one of the bullet casings read, ‘Hey fascist! Catch!’ on it,” Posobiec said to the president.
“One of the other bullet casings right next to that had ‘Bella Ciao’ written on it.
“Now, ‘Bella Ciao’ is a song that is known in Antifa circles as the international anthem of Antifa,” he explained.
“And Mr. President, I think the situation is getting worse,” Posobiec warned.
“When you look at people like Luigi Mangione in his twenties, Thomas Matthew Crooks, of course, who took a shot at you sir, the ICE shooter in Dallas, and now this Tyler Robinson, we’re starting to see a pattern of more and more murderous violence,” Posobiec said of the alleged CEO assassin and Trump shooter, respectively.
He later warned that action against this movement was crucial as “the next one who could be killed could be sitting at this table right now.”
Antifa has been terrorizing American cities for decades.
Still, cities like Portland routinely ignore the problem and allow the riots and destructive demonstrations to continue, along with other crimes that leftists are unwilling to prosecute.
Sortor believes that all of this tolerance for chaos and continued criminal activity is out of “spite” for Trump, and it’s the people who live in those cities who pay the price.
“That’s simply what it’s about at this point,” Sortor said during the meeting, according to Real Clear Politics.
“Because if you go and talk to some of these citizens, like, I’ll use Portland as an example again, because I’ve been there for so long now.
“You talk to the neighbors that live in the apartments next door to the ICE facility.
“They are veterans with PTSD that live there, and they’re here all night long, screaming, fireworks being lit off by these rioters, children crying, because they can’t sleep at night, and they’re scared of all the noise outside.
“And they can’t leave. They got a lease. You can’t just leave.
“These people aren’t wealthy individuals.
“And that’s one of the major problems here,” Sortor went on.
“These people are afraid to come out and speak out, and they’re getting no help from their government at all.
“They’ve been begging for the noise ordinance to be enforced outside of their apartment complex for months now, and the city of Portland has ignored them every single time.
“The victims are, as I said, they’re afraid, but the governments aren’t doing anything because they want to spite the administration.
“It’s all political,” Sortor said.
This roundtable discussion was necessary because these problems have been allowed to fester under Democratic leadership for years.
Those days are over as Trump is finally willing to crack down on these terrorist organizations and clean up these cities, and it appears leftists hate nothing more than law and order and safety.
