US EditionAndy Ngo Speaks Out: Recounts Violent 2019 Attack by Antifa Amid Trump's Crackdown
The designation enables federal authorities to investigate and dismantle Antifa’s networks amid rising violence, including a 1,000% increase in assaults on ICE officers, officials said.
- Andy Ngo recounted being violently attacked by a mob of Antifa members in Portland during a 2019 public demonstration, resulting in a brain hemorrhage.
- This event took place during a period marked by widespread Antifa-related violence across the country and following President Trump’s 2023 directive that officially labeled Antifa as a domestic terror group in an effort to intensify actions against their operations.
- Antifa operates as a decentralized, militant movement involved in coordinated attacks, riots, and assaults on law enforcement and political figures across various U.S. cities including Portland, Seattle, and Atlanta.
- On September 24, 2025, White House spokesperson Abigail Jackson announced that, under the direction of President Trump, all relevant federal agencies will coordinate efforts to identify, interrupt, and eliminate unlawful activities linked to antifa.
- The designation enables law enforcement to pursue Antifa funders and organizers but raises constitutional challenges since Antifa lacks formal legal definition as a terrorist group in U.S. law.
