Antifa

While filming an Antifa-led riot against ICE in Newark, New Jersey, investigative journalist Cameron Higby and his security detail were assaulted and robbed late Friday night.

Rioters had erected barricades to prevent police from entering into Newark’s ICE detention facility, Delaney Hall, but only managed to block out ambulances and EMS.

One of the leftist rioters in New Jersey filmed himself laughing and cheering after conservative journalist Cam Higby was attacked and had his phone stolen and damaged by an Antifa mob.

He blames Cam for starting the altercation, even though the video suggests otherwise. https://t.co/9PVviyQHML pic.twitter.com/gORCX6ZIZD

A series of prosecutions and a landmark trial signal a shift toward treating Antifa as a terrorist threat, testing whether the rule of law can restrain political violence.

Donald Trump is not our Caesar. Yet could he be our Sulla? Given the American Right’s inability (or refusal) to build a mass movement capable of matching the Left when it comes to protests, fundraising, campaigns, and political organization, state action from the top is the last card to play. Recently, the Trump administration won a major legal victory that could provide a way forward if we are serious about ending the seditionist groups that have plagued nationalists for so many decades. More importantly, another case could end the threat altogether.

It’s tragic and pathetic that the Trump administration has received so much criticism for “doing nothing,” given what the online Right has done in the months since Charlie Kirk’s murder.
