This is No 'Summer of Love'
"Kayser Soze" quips in the movie "The Usual Suspects," (Grammercy Pictures/Columbia TriStar) "The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn’t exist."
Antifa, may be likened to Satan.
Why?
Because it is a dark operation.
The Achille’s Heel of all darkness is the exposure to light.
Citizens beware.
The creeping darkness of Antifa Marxism could be coming to a protest near you.
"Antifa" is short for anti-fascism. But heir Marxist definition of fascism is simply "Capitalism."
Is Antifa preparing for a summer of violence?
The nation is witnessing, once again, rioters wearing Antifa black bloc, complete with masks, piggybacking on progressive causes, like immigration.
Recall the purportedly "peaceful" BLM protests using similar dress code and tactics during President Donald Trump’s first administration.
Those "peaceful" gatherings caused billions of dollars in damage.
Gov. Gavin Newsom, D-Calif., strives to violate Federal immigration law, hiding behind unconstitutional city and state "sanctuary" laws.
His actions represent an organized effort to violate federal law.
President Trump is right. Newsom should be arrested if not outright sued along with Gov. Hochul, D-NY., for actions undermining the rule of law and violating his oath of office.
Trump is right to federalize the California National Guard.
If Gov. Newsom and Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass are unwilling to stave off another anarchist Antifa autonomous zone insurgency, similar to Seattle in June of 2020, his oath of office left President Trump no choice but to intervene.
To be clear, eliminating borders through lack of enforcement is a key plank in the Marxist Antifa agenda to pave the way for a global communism.
In 4th Generation guerilla warfare style, the willing participants in the chaos, like Mayor Bass, are blaming the civil disorder not on the bad behavior of the mob but instead on law enforcement.
This blame-game, fostered by legacy media, foments anger among weak-minded, American socialist educated youth, easily beguiled by Marxist propaganda, riding under the banner of "democracy," while making them accomplices in an insurrection.
The pattern and propaganda around the Lois Angeles riots have all the earmarks of the much larger Antifa initiative.
How convenient. As this converges just in time for the nearly 2,000 more anti-Trump protests planned for the weekend of June 12-13, 2025.
But to cover their tracks, they are toggling typical Antifa, anti-Trump propaganda.
Instead of calling him a "fascist" they’ve switched to "king" or "tyrant" hoping the nation won’t notice.
Nevertheless, this is still a French-style revolution.
If this next round of ostensibly "peaceful" protests are Antifa’s, like so many others, they will be peppered with professional agitators to gin up the mob to engage in civil disorder and violence.
To be certain, the Antifa summer of violence is heating up and they will hide in plain sight, courting the affection of liberals by attaching itself like a tick to any left-wing pet that walks by that day, environmentalism, abortion, Palestine.
Today it's immigration. This weekend, again, will the immigration agitators insinuate themselves into transgender, gay pride events, given that June is also Gay Pride Month?
At root what drives all the violence?
- Anti-Christian
- Anti-Capitalism
- Pro-Marxism
The Los Angeles riots are simply the latest in a wave of Antifa attacks over several years, leapfrogging from one socialist issue to another.
In fact, recent attacks on Elon Musk’s Tesla enterprise, are strikingly similar to other Antifa actions including BLM riots after the George Floyd incident, eco-terrorism protests with "Stop Cop-city." Jane’s Revenge attacks on anti-abortion groups and churches after the overturning of Roe v. Wade 410 U.S. 113 (1973), transgender calls for armed revolution, as well as the pro-Palestinian protests after the Hamas terror attack on Israel.
In response to President Trump’s first term election, Mark Bray quickly published his "Anti-Fascist Handbook."
In it he says, "Despite the various shades of interpretation, Antifa should not be understood as a single-issue movement."
One recent Antifa communique, parasitically attaching itself to abortion while targeting those anti-abortion stated, "We fight not just for abortion rights, but for trans liberation . . . and [the destruction of] capitalism, and the uprooting of the entire global civilization."
What is Antifa then?
Antifa is an international communist revolution with origins in Russian Marxism. Antifa is short for anti-fascism.
But the Russian Marxist definition of fascism is simply "Capitalism."
Antifa’s goal is to destabilize and dismantle the modern nation-state system, including the destruction of the free market, using operatives imbedded amongst us, in hopes of the rise of a world-wide communist revolution.
Antifa Marxists understand that international order is held together by relationships between sovereign nation-states, a system championed by the United States and represented by Israel in the Mideast. This system is founded upon a constitutional rule of law based on the Judeo-Christian moral framework, buttressed by a free market.
It only makes sense that Marxist Antifa would target the U.S. and Israel, seeking ways to destabilize both our moral framework and economy. And while doing so, in order to obfuscate their covert activities, accuse the patriots of the very crimes they are committing.
The late Rich Higgins, former irregular warfare expert at the Pentagon during Trump’s first term, revealed, "Antifa’s goal is nothing less than fomenting revolution, civil war and silencing America’s anti-communists."
Law enforcement cannot quell the insurgents without the vigilance of the citizenry.
Resist Antifa in your neighborhood.
And while you are at it, support your local law enforcement as they help you.
