Another democrat caught lying again. Here's keith ellison holding up an antifa book from a couple of years ago. He knew about antifa before Trump used the word. The Federalist Papers - During an MSNBC interview with host Eugene Daniels, Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison denying Antifa, that Trump made it up: DANIELS: “For our viewers, Antifa means antifascist. It's also not a group in the same way that we think of organizations, right? There's no leader. It is more of an ideology. So what do you think they are signaling when they are saying they are as sophisticated or as the same as MS13, and TDA, which they have talked about wanting to eradicate out of the United States. What does that language tell you they are trying to signal to the American people?” ELLISON: “Well, I want to caution people to not just dismiss this just utter stupidity because it is utter stupidity. It's fat free, it's lies. It's ridiculous. But it is dangerous for that very reason. Because if there really is no Antifa as an institution or organization, that anybody who's associated with Antifa like ideas, you know, couldn't, can be persecuted. All you have to do is say prove you're not Antifa. Well, how can you prove a negative? And suddenly they're just going to be able to use that to justify suppressing speech, arresting people, deploying pipes, deploying National Guard, deploying military.” “So the fact that there is no, what is, nobody even knows what it is. The first person I ever heard use the word Antifa was Donald J. Trump when he was going on about how there were good people on both sides of Charlottesville. That's the first time I ever heard anyone use the term. So now it's this amorphous thing. And if nobody is really Antifa, then everybody could be. And the reason you can't fight them is because they're just that crafty. And so this is something that we all need to be worried about.” “I know that there will be people, particularly in the political, the legitimate world, who deal in facts and issues and things like that. Is going to be saying, oh, how dumb this is. Be careful there. They know it's dumb. They know it’s lies. They're using it as a pretext to push forward, a legitimate power that the president is usurping from just about everybody.” Source: MSNBC/X/Grabien
