The FBI found no intelligence “indicating Antifa involvement” in violence surrounding Sunday’s protest near the White House despite President Donald Trump’s attempts to cast blame on radical leftists, according to an FBI situation report obtained by The Nation.
An FBI source told the outlet that other situation reports, produced daily by the FBI since the weekend, have similarly shown no evidence of Antifa involvement.
“Based on CHS [Confidential Human Source] canvassing, open source/social media partner engagement and liaison, FBI WFO has no intelligence indicating Antifa involvement/presence,” the report reads.
That portion of the report followed a list of violent acts committed during the protest, including people who threw bricks at police and a backpack found to contain explosives.Ken Klippenstein✔@kenklippenstein
FBI found “no intelligence indicating Antifa involvement” in May 31 violence, per FBI report leaked to me.
That was the same day that Trump vowed to designate Antifa a terrorist organization.https://www.thenation.com/article/activism/antifa-trump-fbi/ …
