[bleep], [bleep]. [bleep], [bleep]. [bleep]. Laura the journalist you just saw getting attacked by the masked thugs of antifa, these expose the group more than anyone in america today. He isnt lauded with awards or called courageous for any of his work in the conventional media circles. Instead, hes brushed aside as a provocateur or worse inviting these attacks. Thats my favorite. Andy joins a me now for a conversation about the origins of this group and their ultimate goal. Thanks for being here, andy. I have a question that popped in my mind. Does this affect you again to see that video . That is you getting hit and kicked. What do you feel when you see yourself again in those videos over and over again . When i first started watching the videos of this, i was . My first feeling was thank goodness part of it was captured on camera. At the same time, seeing myself being beaten up and humiliated with eggs, silly string and milk shakes being thrown in my face its painful to see. Reliving that over and over. Laura im trying to put myself in your position. Youre attacked, youre on camera. Unless you had it happen to you and i havent, but i tried to put myself in your shoes. Ive done martial arts training. How you react to that. T unless youve trained to react to that, that is a horrific feeling. I dont care what they have in their hands. You feel like theres no way out. Did youei feel that . Yeah, i didnt know what was . It took several hits to my head before i realize im getting beaten up right now. Ive never been in a fight. Ive never been arrested. I dont drink or do drugs. Its like i never encountered anything near it. When it happened, i think by the third punch was hoping and wishing that it stopped. It continued the. Laura why do they react to you the way that react to you . They see you and they think what . Because of my writings. Theyre not just critical, it has anth audience and a reach. Ive written for the National Journal and wall treat journal. Im showing this other side of antifa that is frequently hidden or whitewashed in liberal press. So you unmask them. Yes. Laura as theyre masked. So that brings me to the next question. How did this start . Isis this the beginnings of a . Its not street theater. This is the beginnings of what they hope to be a revolution in the United States. Stoking violent confrontation perhaps with police. Ultimately leading others around the country because its now all around the country. Its not just in one city like portland. Is their ultimate aim and how did it start . O a great question. A lot ofes the tension is paid o these incidents of the street hooliganism, which is one aspect of their tactics. He more important, ideology which you mention. Theyre working towards a political revolution. These acts of violence and vandalism, theyre meant to not only target citizens but meant to polarize society and delegitimize our institutions to uphold the law, for example. They have a lot of hate. For law enforcements, border enforcement. You see reflected in their chants as where they target their acts of violence. Laura who inspires them . Have you been able to get to the heart of that . Which philosophical thinker which revolutionary thinker. Most of them call themselves marxists. Im trying to understand and . Their ideology. This crystallized after 2016 after the election of donald trump. So there hasnt been much Academic Research until how are they organized, who writes their literature, what are their booke of literature. Mark bray from dartmouth . Laura i went to dartmouth. He wrote the book on antifa. I want to play this for you this is chuck todds interview he did with mark bray to explain why the violence. Listen to this. Watch. When pushed, they resist the notion of turning to the government or turning to the police who we have seen have been infiltrated by white supremacists, the return to law and order of fascism. Laura i think that does dovetail into what we are hearing hearing from aoc plus three that this is concentration camp this is nazis, hitlerian. If hitler exists in the United States, you have to do everything you can to stamp it out. This is where this is going. Camp andconcentration all hell breaks loose. He seems sympathetic to the group. He is. Naturallyy he donates . He has proceeds from his book go to antifa. That is a side point. Antifa are masters of double speak. You can see antifascist. Theyre anything but. They appropriate words that mean one thing to one audience and dog whistle to their followers something else. Laura they seem like . They seem fairly young. I see some older people in the crowd. To me they seem like a bunch of spoiled brat kids. Im not trying to totally dismiss them. They think theyre all noble. They seem fairly young. They go to college. Is there a way to get embedded with this organization . What you need to do is have a reporter go undercover. You cant do it now. In my day i would have. How do you make this cement milk shake. They do seem to draw from a wide age group. Primarily young people. Not all of antifa engage in street violence. Some act as cop watchers, human shields, et . Cetera. Vivi laura i should tell everybody, that youre still suffering from this attack. Ive had a chance to talk to you before. Ive had my own share of medical issues over the years. I can still see that youre struggling a little bit for words. I cant believe youre doing as well as youre doing. You lookok good. I can see that youre struggling a little bit. Thats fine. This is real life and we have to talk about the real world circumstances of what you went through and why this is not continue. Or how important is it for them to be called Domestic Terror Organization . I think that my escalation of the seriousness of what is happening might put pressure on authorities and federal authorities especially to start investigating them. Theres so much we dont know. Laura what is next forin you in this . You were badly injured. Youre coming back. Raising money for your medical bills and so forth, which ive gotten some good people to help on that score. What is next . How are you going to get by . Its been over three weeks since my beating and robbery in downtown portland. Theres been no arrests. Im lucky to have representation from harmeet dhillon. The best. Laura we set up a legal opportunity. We want to look in the evidence of what is a systemic issue in portland when it comes to policing and those politicians in governments potentially withstanddown orders or turning a blind eye to far left militants. Laura we need to get to the bottom of this. They have immunity. Its qualified immunity for the police. They dont get full immunity. Until you get discovery on what is really happening and discovery on this group, i dont think well be able to make much progress. I really dont. I think youre inspiring a lot of people. I will say it, i dont care who else doesnt, youre incredibly courageous. I wish i was younger and not as well known, id be out there covering it with you. Im inspired by you. Keep it going. Thanks for having me. Laura come back soon. Joining me now, harmeet dhillon. Shes leading the charge to hold local authorities responsible for failing to stop these antifa assaults. Now harmeet, before we get to the important issues, i have to get your reaction to nancy pelosi and aocs meeting on the hill today. After the meeting, pelosi said she didnt think that the two had many differences. Wow what is your reaction . My reaction is those that think that the aoc squad are a temporary blip are mistaken. Its clear that they are pushing the Democratic Party to the left. I watched that press conference and that photograph opportunity to see if there was any blinking and signs of a hostage situation. Its not Nancy Pelosis nature to be that inflammatory. Shes been pushed there. Shes used the terms of the squad like the current occupant of the white house. Its dangerous. Laura and we take them seriously. Theyre the thought leaders of the Democrat Party. But we move to antifa. I was so moved in my conversation with andy. I had not heard him speak the way he spoke with me and i was very gratified to get his personal story and his background and everything he had been through. But youre leading this legal charge to hold l these local authorities accountable. O how important is it that this behavior, criminal behavior, is not allowed to go unpunished . Laura, its really critical. Its going to affect the outcome of elections. Let me tell you about what ive been doing. We again to see this Political Violence in the streets that andy talked about dating back to the 2016 election. There was a major riot in san jose after then candidate trump spoke. The purpose of that was to intimidate Trump Supporters and prevent them from feeling coming out to vote. They succeeded. I heard from countless people saying theymp wont go to a political rally because they j dont want to be assaulted. What is important about that the mayor of san . Jose enabled that. Were seeing the same behavior in portland. The mayor gave a press conference to explain and apologized for what happened there. Laura harmeet, lets hear from the mayor what you reference. Watch. One of the things that id like the public to know is there is a unified ic Incident Command Center that is engaged during these demonstrations. The incident commanders tactics are reviewed by internal legal counsel. I have never made a tactical decision and i most certainly did not june 29th. Laura harmeet, weasel words if i ever heard them. Yeah, im trying to struggle for a politically correct response to that. Its nonsense what he just said. Portland is unusual in that hes the police commissioner. Hes a civilian command of the police in portland. So he may have been there, he may not have been there. Its irrelevant. The assaults have occurred several times. He, the results have all been the same. No arrests except for certainly not the antifa people. Laura were staying on this. Harmeet, before we let you go we have to put up the picture of Keith Ellison with an antifa leader that was there during the attack on andy ngo. Hes supposing with him now. That individual, Luis Enrique Marquez is an antifa top dog. He was hes in a photo there. Looks like not an antagonistic photo with the attorney general of minnesota. Keith ellison. Right. On top of that, hes been seen at these antifa events in other states as well, this is a critical thing for your audience to understand that there are older National Leaders that direct these efforts and then these young, easily led people. Theyre highly organized. They have attorneys, funding use social media to organize and disperse. This is very dangerous and a growing problem in america laura. Ow laura harmeet, thanks for linking this to the 2020 elections. Theyre going to try to cordon off parts of the country that donald trump cannot campaign in and intimidate voters as well. And next on this special edition of the ingraham angle, uncovering the face ofof the red call left. We go inside the Extremist Organization as theres new calls to label them domestic terrorists. Stay there. These folks dont have time to go to the post office they use stamps. Com all the services of the post office only cheaper get a 4week trial plus postage and a digital scale go to stamps. Com tv and never go to the post office again. We like drip coffee, layovers get a 4week trial plus postage and a digital scale and waiting on hold. What we dont like is relying on fancy technology for help. Snail mail we were invited to a y2k party. Uh, didnt that happen, like, 20 years ago . Oh, look, karolyn, weve got a mathematician on our hands check it out now you can schedule a callback or reschedule an appointment, even on nights and weekends. Todays xfinity service. Simple. Easy. Awesome. Id rather not. Laura our next guest became involved in antifa in 2010 while just in high school. Over the course of two years, he participated in severall demonstrations throughout southern california. Although he says he never hurt anyone, he yelled obscenities and destroyed property, which is a crime. D movement years ago, hes still following its growth and expansion. Hes frightened by todays antifa members that are more brutal and bolder than anything he ever experienced. Gabriel joins me now. Gabriel, why do you think the tactics of antifa have become more extreme and as weve seen really violent . I think theyre mad that President Trump is doing such a great job unfortunately. The left and antifa is just . They dont stand for something. They really arent standing against something. Unfortunately what that somebody is somebody like President Trump that likes american values. He likes the military, the police. He supports the constitution. Antifa, they just want to destroy the constitution. Laura how close are they aligned to the american left and more liberal democrats . Just to know where antifa comes from, you have to look at the College Campuses. We have several professors from elite universities like Dartmouth College laura yeah, my alma mater. He wrote the book. Yeah, the antifascist handbook. In this book hes supporting violence, advocating for violence. Not only that, a significant portion of the proceeds of that book are going to antifa legal funds. To defend them and try to get them out of jail. Laura how did you become involved . You seem like a clean cut kid. Youre a young guy. The world is your oyster. How did you get wrapped up with this group . Again, in 2010, i wanted to go to a protest, make a difference. W so i met awh lot of them. When i met them, i thought i was doing some good. Meet them online . No. T i saw it online and i went to a protest. Laura you dont go to meet chicks. No. So after i went there though, i got involved. I felt uncomfortable about the things that they were saying and doing. So i questioned them. They called me the fascist. I decided to leave and then i was introduced to the leadership institute. Laura yeah. A terrific organization. A you look at what happened to andy ngo and we just heard from him on the show, he is such a softspoken guy. I dont think hes really political. But he is doing some of the reporting that other journalists refuse to do. Yeah. Laura you see what happened to him. He could have been killed. He was badly injured. He could have. This is what im talking about. Antifa doesnt stand for something. Theyre against everything. Andy was trying to get the First Amendment out. So they attacked him. Im sure that not everybody laura the attack mentality. Yeah. Its dangerous, too. Laura you mentioned the College Campuses, this is where the mischief starts and parents dont know what their kids are doing. R i want to get your reaction to this disturbing story out of texas. Campus reform is reporting thatt incoming texas freshmen are being threatened with doxing publishing their personal Contact Information if they joined conservative campus groups. Apparently a selfdescribed antifa student is behind this. Yeah, the problem is these students have not done anything. If you consider joining a conservative organization youll get doxed. It was thanks to a campus reform that the university took it seriously. First they wanted to say theyre not really our students. Since campus reform reported on the story, they reached out to r the Texas Attorney general. This is what t we have to do. Its not the only colleges. Its not just u. T. Austin or dartmouth, its all colleges. Im excited. Im going to do a college tour speaking to College Campuses. Its called behind the black mask so i can tell collegesp students about how violence is never the answer. We should be talking, not fighting. S laura who else is Wearing Masks . We talk about the kkk extremists. Who else is wearing a mask . These great courageous warriors for marxism. Theyre such would you wards. Yeah, the first time i went they had masks. I wore one,ou too. If you wear a black mask, youre doing something that is not good. Laura i look forward to the campus tour. Its critical that people that and reported on it keep talking about it. A lot of the democrats just want to close their eyes and hopes this goes away. Must be dealt with seriously. Someone is going to get killed. An antifa member already got killed. Someone else will get killed. Thanks, gabriel, for being here and witness to this. Two prominent gop senators introduced a resolution that could designate antifa as a Domestic Terror Organization. It States Antifa is a movement that intentionally combines violence with the groups alt left position. Heres bill cassidy from louisiana. We have we not already done this . Its a close call because people on the left dont want to acknowledge its an issue. They want to say its rambunctious teens throwing barricades through windows. Were trying to elevate the profile of the evil that it is. Laura we had Christopher Wray on capitol hill stating most of the domestic terror incidents have been perpetrated by white nationaliststype groups. I think the democrats will always point to that saying dont blame us. Its the white nationalists. Even the fbi director said that. Dont tolerate them either. We on the right dont tolerate. The other hand, the left should not be tolerating antifa and should label them what they are. I would love to see president ial candidates condemn antifa for their assault on andy ngo. Wouldnt that be great . We didnt have many. We had andrew, biden. A few. Swalwell dropped out. A few days. I dont want to go near the salon, the favorite reading material and a piece that they wrote about your resolution. They said the move looks like an attempt to saddle democrats declaring them against antifa or supporting it. Alienating the partys supporters ahead of a critical president ial election. Its a shocker that salon might not have a big audience. Think about it. Theyre assuming that antifa supporters are endorsing democrats. Laura just to understand what domestic terrorism is, the fbis definition, perpetrated by groups, inspired by those with u. S. Based movements that exspouse extremist ideologies of a social, political, racial or environmental nature. Jason so theyre involved in violent acts motivated by those general ideas. Seems like i
