draw your attention to three Antifa-related actions Republicans have taken over the last four weeks. Because they aren’t really about “Antifa.”

They’re about you.

First, President Trump signed an executive order designating Antifa as a “domestic terrorist organization.”

The text of the EO itself is ridiculous. There is no Antifa “organization.” There are loose associations of people who consider themselves to be part of an anti-fascist movement. But “Antifa” is not like the Oath Keepers. There is no leader, no membership roster, no organization.

Just read the EO:

Antifa is a militarist, anarchist enterprise that explicitly calls for the overthrow of the United States Government, law enforcement authorities, and our system of law.

“Explicitly”? Where’s the mission statement? Where’s Antifa Code of Conduct? Who’s the chairman? Who’s the treasurer? How much are membership dues?
