Trump to Label Antifa <br />a Terrorist Organization President Donald Trump made <br />the announcement on Sunday via Twitter. Donald Trump, Twitter Antifa is short for anti-fascist. <br />The term is used broadly for far-left <br />leaning individuals, who have taken <br />radical and militant action. By all reports, Antifa does not <br />have any sort of central leadership. <br />CNN describes the group as "amorphous." Legal experts were quick to <br />point out that Trump does not have <br />legal authority to designate any domestic <br />groups as a terrorist organization. Hina Shamsi, ACLU, <br />via CNN Government officials have called <br />Trump's proposed action unconstitutional. Trump's tweet comes in the midst of <br />several nights of nation-wide protests, <br />sparked by the killing of George Floyd, <br />a black man, by a white Minneapolis police officer. Federal law enforcement officials <br />have stated that much of the destruction <br />caused during the protests has been incited <br />by several groups from both the far-left and far-right.
