Caption: Trump Moves to Label Antifa a Terrorist Group After Kirk Assassination. U.S. President Donald Trump has announced plans to classify the left-wing Antifa movement as a terrorist organization following the assassination of right-wing activist Charlie Kirk. In a post on Truth Social, Trump said he was designating Antifa as a terror group and urged investigations into those who fund it. But experts caution that Antifa is a loose, leaderless ideology, raising questions about how such a designation could be enforced. The move comes a day after prosecutors charged 22-year-old Tyler Robinson with Kirk's killing, though no evidence has emerged linking him to outside groups. Vice President JD Vance echoed Trump's stance in a Fox News interview, blaming left-wing radicalization and vowing to target funding networks. Critics argue Trump is seizing on Kirk's death to clamp down on political opponents. Similar efforts to label Antifa a terrorist group in 2020 faced legal challenges and free-speech concerns.
