All of the Antifa militants in this case were handed sentences of many decades. The sentences are extreme, draconian, and merciless. And I think that is just absolutely awesome. More of this please. I love it. x.com/cbsnews/status…

Analysis Summary
Eight people convicted in a July 4, 2025 shooting at a Texas ICE facility were sentenced to 30-100 years in prison on June 23, 2026—the first federal terrorism prosecutions under Trump's executive order designating antifa as a domestic terrorist organization. The sentences are historically severe, but civil liberties advocates have raised concerns: some defendants weren't present at the shooting, one was convicted for moving a box of political zines, and prosecutors relied on the novel application of terrorism-support laws to defendants with ideological rather than direct operational roles. The case reflects broader Trump administration strategy to use existing legal frameworks against left-wing activism.
