Trump's DOJ brings first Antifa-related terrorism charges
The U.S. Department of Justice, under the leadership of President Donald Trump and Attorney General Pam Bondi, just brought its first Antifa-related terrorism charges.
These, according to Just the News, are the first charges brought against Antifa members since President Trump named the group a domestic terrorist organization.
As we will see, two individuals have been indicted.

The details:
The suspects, according to the New York Post, have been identified as Zachary Evetts and Cameron Arnold.
Per the outlet:
The two Antifa agitators who are the first in the nation to face terrorism charges were part of a “cell” that stockpiled with more than 50 guns — including homemade weapons, according to authorities . . . The pair were initially arrested along with nine more leftwing lunatics on attempted murder charges after the group allegedly opened fire on a local cop and unarmed federal officers outside the Prairieland Detention Center near Dallas on July 4.
The Post goes on to provide more details about the charges.
It reports:
The group descended on the facility, where they initially set off fireworks and vandalized cars, authorities charged. A responding local cop to the commotion was shot and wounded while at least 20 rounds were fired at two unarmed federal agents who left the building before the attackers fled, the feds said. The feds stated in its complaint that the co-conspirator pulled the trigger during the hail of bullets. The Antifa cell exchanged numerous encrypted texts as they planned out the attack, including one member who allegedly wrote, “I’m done with peaceful protests,” court docs said.
Now, these individuals are facing some serious jail time.
"POTUS has made clear..."
Bondi released her own statement on the matter.
"As @POTUS has made clear, Antifa is a left-wing terrorist organization. They will be prosecuted as such," she wrote.
Another statement was released by FBI Director Kash Patel.
He said:
For the first time ever, the FBI has arrested anarchist violent extremists and charged these Antifa-aligned individuals with material support to terrorism. This was a planned and coordinated terrorist attack on the Prairieland Detention Center in Alvarado, Texas, where armed extremists tried to murder U.S. officers on July 4th.
Trump designated Antifa a domestic terror organization just earlier this month.
