Journalist Andy Ngo is considered an expert on antifa and BLM and why not, they have beaten him enough. He was beaten in Portland so bad it made his brain bleed. He spent some quality time in the hospital.
Ngo, in an interview with Breitbart, told them that antifa and BLM are funded and protected by the media, politicians, and the Biden administration.
Biden fired the US Prosecutor who brought the most cases against antifa in Oregon.
Ngo said on Thursday:
“As the riots became more sophisticated and more entrenched in the right … they started to have really large sources of funding. [Antifa and Black Lives Matter received] hundreds of thousands of dollars that supplied not just the basics like food and accommodation and travel, but things like riot gear, weapons, bail fund money, legal aid money.”
“When you have [financial support] on top of a mayor and a city council that’s giving rhetorical support for them and a district attorney who’s dropping all charges of the people — the rioters — who got arrested, it just kept going. It was a revolving door, and unfortunately, as I was warning, it led to them feeling empowered to kill somebody.”
“They ended up hunting down and shooting a Trump supporter in downtown Portland, and that person, Michael Reinoehl, as I write in the book, he left behind a sort of manifesto on his Instagram, and his quote was, ‘I am 100 percent Antifa,’ and he’s not the only one. There’s been other Antifa who have killed, but the media doesn’t really focus on that.”
Ngo said:
“We have a whole media class that is not just letting down the public. It’s actively giving them disinformation.”
“There’s lots of conspiracies about like rich millionaires and billionaires. I actually haven’t been able to find evidence of that, and it’s much more simple. The real sources of funding because it’s actually done out in the open , they create these sort of front groups, ad hoc groups, that are anonymously run, and then they open up accounts on Cash App, in Venmo, in GoFundMe, and then these links and usernames get disseminated [across] really wide networks, shared around the world, and so through small donor amounts , like anything from $20 to $100, to a few hundred dollars , they collectively will raise millions, literally.”
I think one of the things that President Trump failed to do is that he failed to designate antifa as domestic terrorists. With BLM you do have some groups who merely protest and others who do engage in terrorism but, with antifa they are all terrorists. Joe Biden would have reversed the designation but then we would have him on record.
