The American Civil Liberties Union is leading the charge to defend ANTIFA which has now been declared to be a terrorist organization following its role in the widespread rioting that is ongoing and intensifying.

The once-venerable civil rights organization which now merely serves as an appendage of the fully radicalized Democratic party is the first high-profile defender of America's brown shirts after President Trump announced the terrorist designation.

Trump's tweet put the Democrats' paramilitary shock troops on notice as did Attorney General William Barr who on Sunday, released a statement announcing that the existing network of 56 regional FBI Joint Terrorism Task Forces (JTTF) would be utilized in the identification of agitators and leaders.

The ACLU was the first to defend the thugs who have torched cities, incited riots, attacked police and innocent people and encouraged the looting and pillaging of businesses, many of them minority-owned.

According to the ACLU:

"Terrorism is an inherently political label, easily abused and misused."

"Let's be clear: There is no legal authority for designating a domestic group. Any such designation would raise significant due process and First Amendment concerns."

The coming response from the anti-American left will be hypocrisy served up with a side of shamelessness.

Where was the ACLU when the Obama regime was abusing the nation's anti-terrorist surveillance apparatus to spy on political adversaries and the use of federal law enforcement as Dear Leader's personal Gestapo?

The height of irony as that the same surveillance system is about to be directed at ANTIFA and their collaborators whose financial and other material support of the organization will be treated as if they were donating to ISIS; not that there is much difference.

And that is a very serious federal crime that should keep ACLU's pro bono legal team busy defending their terrorist clients for their anti-American insurrection.
