FBI Director Wray: 'Antifa is a real thing,' FBI has cases against people identifying with movement https://www.foxnews.com/politics/fbi-director-wray-antifa-cases-real FBI Director Chris Wray made clear that Antifa is not a made-up, right-wing conspiracy theory and that the FBI has cases involving those connected to it. Appearing at a House Homeland Security Committee hearing Thursday, Wray explained that while Antifa is not an organization in the traditional sense, it is a movement and there have been suspects who claimed to be a part of it. "Antifa is a real thing. It's not a group or an organization. It's a movement, or an ideology may be one way of thinking of it," Wray said. "And we have quite a number -- and I've said this quite consistently since my first time appearing before this committee -- we have any number of properly predicated investigations into what we would describe as violent anarchist extremists and some of those individuals self-identify with Antifa." Wray's words were in response to Rep. Debbie Lesko, R-Ariz., who claimed prominent Democrats have called Antifa a "fantasy." In July, Rep. Jerry Nadler, D-N.Y., had dismissed the idea of Antifa violence in Portland as "a myth that's being spread only in Washington, D.C." Later in the hearing, Rep. Donald Payne, D-N.J., asked for clarification about the nature of Antifa, and Wray explained further. "Antifa is a real thing. It’s not a fiction," Wray reiterated." But it is — it’s not an organization or a structure." He again described it as more of a "movement" but again noted that there have been those who self-identify as being a part of it. "They say 'I am Antifa,'" Wray stated. Republicans on the House Judiciary Committee on Tuesday sent a to letter Nadler, the committee's chair, criticizing him for launching “fruitless partisan investigations” into President Trump while ignoring the threat of Antifa. The letter called on Nadler to denounce “left-wing violent extremism” and convene a hearing to investigate the unrest engulfing a number of cities across the country. While Nadler and other Democrats have remained relatively quiet on Antifa, the party’s presidential nominee, Joe Biden, has condemned the movement. Speaking to a local news station in Pennsylvania last week, Biden said he is against all violence. "I've condemned it across the board," Biden told Pennsylvania's WGAL News 8 in an interview Monday, referring to violence during protests. "Do you condemn Antifa?" reporter Barbara Barr asked Biden. "Yes, I do, violence no matter who it is," he replied.
So there are no organisations, leaders, meetings, no fees. Being actively anti-fascist like most of our grandparents were professionally is now some kind of a thought crime. It's about the same a trying to crimilise being a punk, an Emo etc. The reason the left leaders are quiet on "antifa" is its breathing life into a largely imaginary thing the right are pushing. Equal blame for both sides, like equal time for both viewpoints for right wing "science".
One of the great things that this mail in voting scam has going for dems is that it allows them to be about looting on election day when normal Americans will be going to the polls.
Over the past decade, extremists of every stripe have killed 372 Americans. 74 percent of those killings were committed by right wing extremists. Only 2 percent of those deaths were at the hands of left wing extremists. And its had not changed by much percentage wise since 2016.
