Can Trump designate it as a domestic terrorist organization?
Antifa is a domestic entity and, as such, is not a candidate for inclusion on the State Department’s list of foreign terror organizations. Dozens of groups, including extremist organizations like the Islamic State and al-Qaida, are included on that list. The designation matters in part because it enables the Justice Department to prosecute those who give material support to entities on that list even if that support does not result in violence.
But there is no domestic equivalent to that list in part because of broad First Amendment protections enjoyed by organizations operating within the United States. And despite periodic calls, particularly after mass shootings by white supremacists, to establish a domestic terrorism law, no singular statute now exists.
The executive order did not specify how Trump he would go about designating antifa as a domestic terrorist organization.
Which could end up with the supreme Court reviewing if a presidents broad powers can override the first amendment.
To which, even with a 9-0 ruling, he’ll ignore and do what he wants anyway, like we saw before
Yep. Since he cannot be held legally responsible for violating the constitution and Congress is not likely to impeach until after the midterms (if we’re lucky) he can just keep doing whatever he wants without consequence.
Abrego Garcia is back from El Salvador. When it came down to it, they hemmed and hawed, but then they backed down before it got to a standoff
And that’s the pattern so far…a lot of stuff is getting undone in the background as it works it’s way through the courts
They didn’t back down at all:

They said no one comes out of that prison, and he’s back in the States
They’re still trying to pull endless bullshit to get their way, but they’re doing it through the courts
They tactically regrouped, but that’s not the same as backing down.
That’s going to be an annoying 15 minutes for the court.
It takes 15 minutes to serve lunch to 9 people?
