Son of Minnesota's attorney general: 'I hereby declare, officially, my support for ANTIFA'
2020-06-01
[FOX] The son of Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison tweeted on Sunday that he is declaring his support for Antifa after President Trump said that his administration would be declaring it a "Terrorist Organization."

Jeremiah Ellison, who is a member of the Minneapolis City Council, noted in the tweet that he believes "white power" terrorists are actually the ones engaging in the looting, arson and other riot activities as violent sects hijack some of the protests against racial inequality and police brutality in the wake of the death of George Floyd last Monday.

"I hereby declare, officially, my support for ANTIFA," Ellison said. "Unless someone can prove to me ANTIFA is behind the burning of black and immigrant owned businesses in my ward, I’ll keep focusing on stopping the white power terrorist THE ARE ACTUALLY ATTACKING US!"

"You must choose between being an American, or being a tribalist."

#22  ^ Interesting - the prospect of a race war within the Dem/Media Complex. The ultimate manifestation of identity politics

#21  If the Black Panthers get involved Antifa and any white leftist group will not be welcome. And I think they will, especially after a young black female EMT was shot 8 times in her own home when police burst through her front door in a wrong address drug raid last month.

#20  Per the article, he declared his support AFTER Trump announced his intent to declare Antifa a DTO. In my book that puts him as "all in". He's chosen.. poorly.

#19  Don't know if this video is genuinely from Minneapolis, but someone on the MinneapolisPD Twitter thread just posted this clip, filmed from an apartment balcony, of police patrolling what supposedly is a Minneapolis residential street - telling the people videotaping from their balcony to "get inside" and firing

#16  As usual our local Twin Cities Pravda is refusing to report. Right now we are compiling a list of their sponsors for a wide open boycott.

This is long past enough is enough.

#14  Did he declare before or after Antifa was declared a terrorist organization and is pledging devotion to a terrorist group enough to arrest someone?

#13  I've always appreciated it when a terrorist self identifies. Noted.

#12  On the other hand, here's a young black woman, uh, expressing her views about young whites hiding in a car and handing out bricks to young black men. She did not say please and thank you.

#8  We can't even arrest Hillary Clinton, so I don't have much hope for getting these Antifa pukes.

#7  Cool. Now we can declare you all terrorists and clean up the gene pool.
