Office of the Spokesperson

November 13, 202

Today, the Department of State announces the designation of Antifa Ost, Informal Anarchist Federation/International Revolutionary Front, Armed Proletarian Justice, and Revolutionary Class Self-Defense as Specially Designated Global Terrorists (SDGTs) and the intent to designate all four groups as Foreign Terrorist Organizations (FTOs), effective November 20, 2025.

Antifa Ost

• Antifa Ost (also known as Antifa East and Hammerbande) is a Germany-based militant group. Antifa Ost conducted numerous attacks against individuals it perceives as “fascists” or part of the “right-wing scene” in Germany between 2018 and 2023 and is accused of having conducted a series of attacks in Budapest in mid-February 2023.
• On September 26, 2025, Hungary declared Antifa Ost to be a terrorist organization and added the group to its national anti-terrorism list.

Informal Anarchist Federation/International Revolutionary Front (FAI/FRI)

• FAI/FRI is a militant anarchist group that primarily operates in Italy with historical self-proclaimed affiliates across Europe, South America, and Asia. FAI/FRI declares the necessity of the revolutionary armed struggle against nation states and “The Fortress Europe.”
• Since 2003, FAI/FRI has claimed responsibility for threats of violence, bombs, and letter bombs against political and economic institutions, including a courthouse and other “capitalist institutions.”

Armed Proletarian Justice

• Armed Proletarian Justice is a Greek anarchist and “anti-capitalist” group that has attempted and conducted improvised explosive device (IED) attacks against Greek government targets.
• Armed Proletarian Justice claimed responsibility for planting a bomb near the Greek riot police headquarters in Goudi, Greece on December 18, 2023.

Revolutionary Class Self-Defense

• Revolutionary Class Self-Defense is a Greek anarchist and “anti-capitalist” group. The group links its actions to broader political and social issues and cites opposition to “capitalist structures,” “state repression,” and solidarity with Palestine.
• Revolutionary Class Self-Defense claimed responsibility for two IED attacks targeting the Greece Ministry of Labor (February 3, 2024) and the Hellenic Train offices (April 11, 2025).

Terrorist designations expose and isolate entities and individuals, denying them access to the U.S. financial system and resources they need to carry out attacks. All property and property interests of designated individuals or groups that are in the United States or that are in possession or control of a U.S. person are blocked. U.S. persons are generally prohibited from conducting business with sanctioned persons. It is also a crime to knowingly provide material support or resources to those designated, or to attempt or conspire to do so. Persons that engage in certain transactions or activities with those designated today may expose themselves to sanctions risk.  Notably, engaging in certain transactions with them entails risk of secondary sanctions pursuant to counterterrorism authorities.

Today’s actions are taken pursuant to section 219 of the Immigration and Nationality Act and Executive Order 13224.  FTO designations go into effect upon publication in the Federal Register.
Petitioners requesting removal of those designated from the Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List should refer to the Department of State’s Delisting Guidance page.

 

[I Hate The Disabled]

He was the president for 4 years. He did nothing.

Not true. He monitored the situation.

 

[Taser Confetti]

After Covid and what the FBI did to censor anyone who wasn't guzzling vaccines? Free speech was already dead. These laws are going to be used against us once the democrats take over regardless.

Nigger you might want to look up how much of the American machine is ran off "precedent". Don't say I didn't warn you when President AOC deports Stephen Crowder and Jordan Peterson for criticizing troons.

 

[LeChampion1992]

They should be put through swift kangaroo trials and immediately executed on live TV once the sentence is pronounced.

Worst thing you can do is make these people becoming Marytrs for their cause. Again i know the sentiment is crush these commie skulls and put them in camps. These public people need to have the perception be thst they're common criminals not revolutionaries. People have sympathies for revolutionaries not so much crooks.

You understand why the commies and the anarchists were burning the cities down, don't you? The organizers among them, I mean.

"Your enemy's reaction is your goal." This sentiment from Rules for Radicals explains a large amount of leftoid "activist" behavior. And the leftist religious belief that Trump is stupid led them to believe he would pounce immediately on their rioting, allowing the shitlib media (read: almost all of it) to selectively edit and disseminate video that framed him as an authoritarian fascist.

Trump didn't handle the start of COVID well, but he did exactly what he should have done about violent leftists in 2020: nothing unless the law said he had to (feds protecting federal buildings, for example). The result was a surplus of leaked (because the "news" wouldn't air it) video showing violent, destructive leftists getting away with violence in blue states where Democrat governors, mayors, and prosecutors covered for them.

Yes, everyone wants to watch these people be crushed. That's one of many good reasons why so many people were supportive of Rittenhouse. But Trump didn't take the bait, and it was a good thing. You don't like Antifags destroying your state? Don't let your politicians run interference for them.

Again the left wants Trump and ICE to crackdown so hard get their clips and run it as evil nazi Trump is bad and evil.
As much as it sucks Trump should crackdown on their financing and active terror cells only at this time.
Yeah I know a lot of right wingers want to see the limp waisted college students get violently beat down but we need to think beyond first and second order effects. It would be better if you mock the protesters as out of touch and stupid vs sending these people to gulags. Again the left is trying to push for a massive color revolution and the right needs to not take the bait.

 

[frozen_runner]

How did it hurt them exactly, when dem cities go under their residents move to the suburbs and rural areas and vote for the same shit

That's true and a separate, though connected, issue.

But are you really incapable of imagining what would have happened if Trump had cracked down hard on Antifa? I was talking to genuinely intelligent left-leaning people within the last 2-3 years, and they still didn't understand what Antifa was (or they were lying) and only wanted to talk about the true threat of the fucking Proud Boys. But now almost everyone knows what Antifa is, and lefties can't get away with denying it anymore. That took time.

Normies are stupid and lazy. They continue to trust news sources that have verifiably lied to them many, many times over the last decade. They don't want to go looking for the truth. At a time when a lot of people were scared and malleable, it would not have been hard to turn fence-sitters against Trump using the legacy media. Especially when they had been trying to call him a fascist every second of every day for over 4 years at that point. And didn't he lose the 2020 election? (Arguably.)

Look at how hands off Trump thankfully was in relation to the pandemic in 2020. Not mandating anything, leaving it all up to the states. That was an intentional strategy. So was him doing nothing as the left hurt itself.

You can't eradicate ideology. Leftists are retarded, and their retardation is eternal. You can only show the world how stupid they are until they stop sperging out for the moment.

Never forget that retards seal clapped as the Trump administration codified hate speech laws and deported people for protesting a foreign (parasitic) country because it "owned the libs".

It was a good thing when trump did this, BECAUSE it targeted dems

After Covid and what the FBI did to censor anyone who wasn't guzzling vaccines? Free speech was already dead. These laws are going to be used against us once the democrats take over regardless.

Then we cant let them take power. Simple

Nigger you might want to look up how much of the American machine is ran off "precedent". Don't say I didn't warn you when President AOC deports Stephen Crowder and Jordan Peterson for criticizing troons.

She is a foreign leader, she cant deport anyone

 

[The Dude]

Hopefully this will allow them to trace funding back to it's sources and criminally prosecute those sources, like the Soros family and top Democrats.

 

[The GOATest]

How did it hurt them exactly, when dem cities go under their residents move to the suburbs and rural areas and vote for the same shit

Next you're going to suggest we just bail out dem cities so the cancer doesn't spread.

When people move out the cities lose their tax base and ability to rig elections.

 

[No-Eyed Square Guy]

Hopefully this will allow them to trace funding back to it's sources and criminally prosecute those sources, like the Soros family and top Democrats.

None of the named organizations are American or in any way associated with American antifa (which is a part of the American government over which the president has no power).

 

[chuggernauty]

They should also go after the paid protesters.

 

[Male Idiot]

On September 26, 2025, Hungary declared Antifa Ost to be a terrorist organization and added the group to its national anti-terrorism list.

Giga based Orbán W. These retards were coming to Hungary and trying to kill locals that looked vaguely right wingy.

I don't know but I don't see random Mossad agents just lynching people in public yet because they are bald or wore khaki outfits.

The feds never cared about antifa assaulting and killing people until they started going after Israel and hurting Jews feelings.

They bit the (((hand))) that feeds, but they are still retarded shitbulls. If a retarded shitbull mauls a nigger doesn't mean it won't maul your baby next. The (Orange Nigger) decided to cap them asses gnowesayin?

This is the group of retards who ran around acid attacking bald people in Germany because they thought they were skinheads. Took them long enough.

Yeah these guys are absolutely the lowermost vantablack feral haiti nigger tiers. Slomo or no, taking them out is a White W.

Pretty sure repeated political assassinations are the bigger reasons. The extreme left in the west being anti Israel was a thing for decades by now.

Finally Slomo stopped shielding them. They went from useful idiot to useless idiot, now it is time for Le Happy Merchant to scapegoat them, and for white people to put them down like the rabid animals they are.

How did it hurt them exactly, when dem cities go under their residents move to the suburbs and rural areas and vote for the same shit

It made Drumpf look weak and retarded in front of Russia and Chyna and that must have hurt the evil orange man's balls! Soy yeah!

Not true. He monitored the situation.

It was the best monitoring ever, the most beautiful and greatest you ever saw!
