In an announcement on Monday, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) announced that she would introduce legislation declaring antifa “domestic terrorists,” the Washington Examiner reports.
In her opinion, Antifa, a group that many Democratic lawmakers do not recognize as an organized group, defends LGBT indoctrination of America’s youth and attacks those opposed to the Coronavirus vaccine.
Greene told Fox News host Tucker Carlson, “America is just sick and tired of antifa.”
It’s time to declare Antifa a domestic terrorist organization.

Greene’s remarks come days after antifa smashed windows in Atlanta and set a police car on fire.
At least six people dressed in black bloc attire were arrested as protesters opposed to the construction of the Atlanta Police Department’s new training center.

Six Antifa activists were arrested on charges of domestic terrorism by Atlanta police Saturday night. Five of the six people arrested came from out of state. Just two out of the six arrested have been granted bond.

CLOSE. As I said earlier, it takes a brave soul to take on Antifa, and Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene is doing just that. This week, she bravely announced her intention to introduce a bill declaring Antifa a domestic terror organization. This must happen in order to finally put an end to the violence and unacceptable public disorder that this group has been inflicting throughout the country over the last few years, such as just recently smashing windows in Atlanta and setting fire to police cars. We must firmly stand up against those who are manipulating America’s youth with LGBT indoctrination while also attacking those who respect personal freedoms. It is thanks to brave individuals like Rep. Greene that justice can be brought against these terrorist organizations; God bless MTG for speaking up and taking action!
