Trump is convinced the loosely affiliated group of militant anti-fascists is behind the violence at protests following George Floyd's death.
President Donald Trump announced Sunday a left-wing group he thinks are leading the violence at anti-police brutality protests will be officially labeled as terrorists.
"The violence and vandalism is being led by antifa and other radical left-wing groups who are terrorizing the innocent, destroying jobs, hurting businesses and burning down buildings," Trump said duringIn his first tweet Sunday, Trump kept up his criticism of Minneapolis' Democratic Mayor Jacob Frey for not being tough enough on the protesters who turned violent.
"With the rioting that is occurring in many of our cities around the country, the voices of peaceful and legitimate protests have been hijacked by violent radical elements. Groups of outside radicals and agitators are exploiting the situation to pursue their own separate, violent, and extremist agenda," Barr said.
"He can call it whatever he wants, but he has no authority to designate antifa as a terrorist organization," David Cole, the ACLU's national legal director, told USA TODAY.
