How Many Members Does Antifa Have? Where Is Its Headquarters? The FBI Has No Answers.

https://theintercept.com/2025/12/11/fbi-antifa-terrorist-location/

A top FBI official toed the White House line about antifa as a major domestic terror threat at a House hearing on Thursday — but he struggled to answer questions about the leaderless movement.

Pressed repeatedly by a top Democrat on the House Homeland Security Committee about antifa’s size and location, the operations director of the FBI’s national security division didn’t have answers.

I’d like to buy a T-Shirt. I’ll check out the World War II Museum in New Orleans. They probably have a whole bunch of ANTIFA Merch. My father in law was a member of ANTIFA as was every service member of the United States then and now. He landed on Omaha Beach 6 June 1944. A Day which will live on in ANTIFA History. My FIL lost his left arm fighting for democracy as a member of ANTIFA. My FIL is gone now but he will always be my hero. I remember summer of 1993, we were sitting on his front porch in North Kansas. Amongst other things, he told me he wouldn’t waste his spit on a Republican. God Bless our ANTIFA troops who saved us from the bad guys. Todays bad guys don’t know a fucking thing about history.

On Jan6, Republicans recognized the violence and blamed Antifa.
Trump pardoned them.
There is a list of 1500 names available now.

Another very important line of questioning aside from these about leaders and locations is the question of "what have they actually DONE?". Then I would have run down a list of things that are known to have been done by right-wing/religious terrorists, in the US and elsewhere.

Starting with "have they ever killed thousands of people and caused billions in property damage, like the religious conservative terrorist outfit we know as Al-Queda did on 9/11?".

"Have Antifa ever committed a crime like bombing a Federal Building, like the right-wing terrorist Timothy McVeigh, killing 168 Americans, purely based on his animosity towards the US Government?".

"Have they ever attacked law enforcement as a riotous mob, sending 100+ officers to the hospital, in a violent attempt to stop the peaceful transfer of power, as the Proud Boys and other right-wing extremist groups did on January 6, 2021?".

"Have they ever walked into a church and slaughtered many people in the congregation, like right-wing terrorist Dylan Roof?", etc, etc.

"No? Well, surely you can cite some kind of massive property damage and/or serious violence that put someone in the hospital at some point, committed by a known-member of Antifa, acting under the direction of "Antifa Leadership", right?

"Still no? Huh. So, it seems The FBI are persecuting "Antifa" for their political beliefs, i.e. that fascism, an ideology which we fought and defeated in WWII, is one that the USA should continue to oppose as we did in the last century, which is their 1st amendment right to do, wouldn't you say"?
