FBI’s Antifa Inquiry: No Answers, Only Fascist Accusations
During a House hearing, a top FBI official designated antifa as a major domestic terror threat while struggling to provide concrete details about the leaderless movement. The FBI’s operations director, Michael Glasheen, was unable to answer questions regarding antifa’s size, location, or membership, despite Trump’s previous designation and directive to investigate the group. Glasheen’s response, citing “active” investigations and the fluid nature of the movement, highlighted the challenges in classifying a decentralized entity as a terrorist organization. This focus on antifa contrasts with research showing historical levels of violence by right-wing and jihadist attackers have been significantly higher.
