On Tuesday, the U.S. Department of Justice unsealed a 94-page indictment against 15 members of the Minneapolis-based Antifa group “Direct Action Minnesota” (DAMN). Originally filed under seal on June 11, the indictment describes a detailed conspiracy to coordinate, obstruct, and carry out violent acts against DHS and ICE employees to prevent them from carrying out their sworn duties.
Neither the charges nor the arrests are what is most interesting. It is the evidence that, despite the Left’s moaning and groaning about how Antifa is some right-wing conspiracy no more organized than Taylor Swift fans, groups like DAMN are incredibly organized, their activities coordinated and premeditated.
The indictments outline detailed, structured planning across finances, communication, and tactics. They created shared databases and rapid response networks. All to perpetuate obstruction of justice, interference with the exercise of sworn duties, and a number of actual assaults on local and federal agents.
