Why is Trump targeting antifa under terrorism laws?
Manage episode 514994229 series 2454744
The US is charging two men allegedly associated with antifa with "terrorism.” The case follows President Donald Trump’s executive order to designate antifa a "domestic terrorist organization,” despite most experts agreeing that antifa is an ideology rather than an organized group. What does the latest move from the Trump administration mean for dissent and free speech in the US?
