Independent Seattle journalists thank Trump for declaring Antifa as a domestic terror organization

President Donald Trump convened a roundtable Wednesday with top cabinet members to discuss 'Antifa,' a movement he has labeled as a terrorist organization. During the meeting, independent journalists from the Pacific Northwest shared their encounters with Antifa while covering protests. Brandi Kruse, an independent journalist based in Seattle who has developed a large following through her political Podcast unDivided with Brandi Kruse, urged the federal government to take action. "So we want the federal government to take as many cases as possible," Kruse said. "Look at the interstate travel between Portland and Seattle when it comes to these people committing violent acts. And hopefully in 3 and a half years they will be a shell of their former selves." Others in attendance included, Jonathan Choe, who self-described as an investigative reporter for Frontlines Turning Point USA and senior fellow at the Discovery Institute in Seattle, covering far-left extremism and the homeless drug crisis in America. He called on the Trump administration to look at Antifa's alleged ties to the homeless crisis, claiming that Antifa is "heavily embedded in the homeless and housing nonprofit sector." Another Independent investigative journalist Katie Daviscourt also attended and recounted her experience of being injured during a protest at a Portland ICE facility. "Black clad anarchist militants concealing their faces behind facial coverings have been assaulting reporters just for being able to cover their crimes," Daviscourt said. "Today I am sitting here with a black eye and a concussion after being violently hit in the face with a pole while reporting outside the ICE facility just this past week." Despite the discussions, no evidence of an organized Antifa group traveling between Portland and Seattle was presented at the roundtable. Antifa, short for anti-fascist, lacks a detailed organized group leadership structure, according to law enforcement. The Trump administration declared Antifa as a terrorist organization in September. #presidentrump #antifa #independentjournalists #nationalnews #politics -------------------------------------------------- For more on the story: https://komonews.com/news/local/presi... _______________ Stay up to date with our social media: KOMO News on Facebook:   / komonews   KOMO News on Twitter:   / komonews   KOMO News on Instagram:   / komo4   KOMO News on TikTok:   / komo4seattle   Subscribe to KOMO on YouTube:    / @komonews   Watch more top local news stories:    • Видео   For all of the day’s top local and national news, visit http://www.komonews.com/ Watch our live newscasts and other live video at https://komonews.com/watch Download our iOS App: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/komo-...
