Attorney General Pam Bondi asserted Antifa was “no different” from the MS-13 drugs gang, citing the experiences of MAGA influencers to support her claims.

She accused Antifa of being responsible for the “chaos” in Portland and other cities, where crowds have protested the deployment of federal agents. “They’re at all of these events, they’re encouraging violence, they’re calling everyone fascist, but it’s more than that. It’s hurting the American people. They’re no different than MS-13 or any gang out there.”

She added: “Talk to all the influencers who have been threatened and beat up and their lives threatened from Antifa members. It’s going to stop under Donald Trump.”

Fascists really don't like people who fight fascists.

[-] MagicShel@lemmy.zip 20 points 1 month ago

I'm right here, Pam. I'm antifa. Come at me.

[-] Triumph@fedia.io 14 points 1 month ago

We are all antifa on this glorious day.

1930s: Jews, Poles, communists, trade unionists, homosexuals, the mentally ill

2020s: Antifa, immigrants, leftists, LGBTQ, the disabled

Who is Antifa murdering these days? Human trafficking? Drugs? Bombings? wtf is this govt even talking about?

[-] Archer@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

No no no, you call anyone that does something you don’t like antifa so you can pre-arrest other antifa before they commit a crime, thus preventing crime. This is an innovative strategy that certainly isn’t illegal at all

In lieu of a bible, someone will do a dramatic reading of this to ICE:

[-] 9tr6gyp3@lemmy.world 17 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

So MS-13 would have won against Nazi Germany in WW2?

[-] etherphon@midwest.social 15 points 1 month ago

Influencers are people who are paid for their opinion and make money on engagement and guess what engages people. That the government is telling people to listen to influencers instead of experts, scientists and doctors tells you all you need to know, we have a bunch of morally bankrupt greedy ass children running the country.

[-] tanisnikana@lemmy.world 11 points 1 month ago

Hello, I’m an antifa domestic terrorist and I’m in opposition to this regime. My username here is also my legal name.

Come on, Pam, come fuck up a stroke-addled disabled trans woman who doesn’t have the strength to lift a gun!

[-] Rhaedas@fedia.io 5 points 1 month ago

Cassian Andor: Well, we'll find a place they haven't ruined yet. Maarva Andor: I'm already there. That place is in my head. They can build as many barracks as they like, they'll never find me.

[-] anomnom@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 month ago

The season one ending is hard to watch now.

[-] empireOfLove2@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 1 month ago

Woah woah woah, that is WAY too pornographic of a situation for the fascists. That's the stuff that gives them wet dreams.

[-] Madison420@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

woman who doesn’t have the strength to lift a gun!

Oh I think we can mcgyver something up real quick, don't let your dreams be dreams, get armed, stay armed and resist disarmament with violent force if necessary. It's the American was after all.

[-] frmrm@peachpie.theatl.social 11 points 1 month ago

All this over inflatable costumes and naked bikers? I mean…. Tell me you’re worried without telling me you’re worried. 🙄

[-] crystalmerchant@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Lmao I literally rode my bike right through South Waterfront today, here in Portland. Ain't no war zone, ain't no chaos or whatever flavor of the day they choose. Bondi and Noem and the rest are just doing what the right always does, egging the public on and saying whatever they want to be true enough times until eventually they find barely enough to cling to as leverage

[-] Almacca@aussie.zone 8 points 1 month ago

The Democrats should come out and label MAGA as a terrorist organisation. It'd be more accurate.

[-] BlueEther@no.lastname.nz 9 points 1 month ago

They did that them selves, remember?

[-] ArmchairAce1944@discuss.online 4 points 1 month ago

Yeah but they were just kidding and pwning the libs... can't you take a joke brah?

[-] Almacca@aussie.zone 3 points 1 month ago

So they can't even complain about it. It can only good happen!

[-] vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 month ago

I've got a counter point for the primeval slag creature known as Pam Bondi. Kill yourself, do it on live TV just put a .38 special through thine insipid skull, it'd be funny.

[-] DaMummy@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

She probably has miracle bones than can stop a .30-06

[-] vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 month ago

I know what your referring to but it's still the single most braindead thing I've ever heard, "Oh this dumbass who got shot was such a magic being that it stopped the bullet from causing collateral." Its so stupid that I legit want to shoot every fucking dipshit who were the initial spreaders of that trite, preferably with an M2 Browning loaded with .50 BMG explosive rounds.

[-] Tower@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 month ago

Hey man, nice shot.

So the Homeland security boss wants us to take cues from, checks notes Youtubers and TikTokers who checks again have been paid and sponsored by the government or Russia, am I right?

OK. I'll check with Youtubers. Mo1stCritikal will be my first.

[-] webdox@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

They are paying MAGA influencers to create false flag "conflicts". These sad children hate their country and are willing to kill it for a couple of Trumpbux. When the trials commence, they will not be forgotten about. I saw one have his buddy dressed with a black hood and mask on pretend to threaten him as an Antifa team member. Only the lowest of mouth breathers believe this bullshit.

[-] WalrusDragonOnABike@reddthat.com 3 points 1 month ago

If antifa is the one responsible for the chaos in portland, she must think portland police and ICE are "antifa."

[-] synae@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 1 month ago

Oh sure, let me just check with Charlie Ki- oh wait

[-] Visikde@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

MAGAts are domestic terrorists destroying rule of law & our Conststution

The only way they could work harder to convince us they're fascists is if Politicians got caught with an American Flag grafted into a swastika and an accompanying pro-hitler text message controversy.

[-] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 month ago

Every decent human being is.

[-] Atelopus-zeteki@fedia.io 2 points 1 month ago

FWIW, I would consider checking with MAGA influencers to see what I should think. Pretty simple, see what they are thinking, and go with whatever pisses them off, or is 180 degrees off from what they suggest.

[-] LoafedBurrito@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Yet they are ignoring the hundreds of murders by right wing fascists over the years since it doesn't fit their agenda.

This administration is so embarrassing. I can't wait to see them in prison.

Obvious distraction with no supporting evidence is obvious

Publish the jobs report

Publish the Epstein data and arrest the pedophiles who raped those kids

Stop untrained, violent federal agents from hiding their identity and deporting kids with stage 4 cancer

[-] desmosthenes@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

if there is no enemy you make one

[-] thespcicifcocean@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

We should come up with a gang sign then.
