Guess which top-level Democrat just tweeted his love of violent Antifa thuggery...

Make no mistake. Most of the progressive left loves Antifa. The organization is vocally pro-violence, pro-beatings, and it loves seeing rioters silence free speech. To them, the effort to expand the federal government, eliminate U.S. borders, and redistribute every last cent of wealth is more than a political battle. When government is your God, your cause becomes a holy crusade. Disagree with them and you're a fascist. So, for most of Antifa's members and supporters, violence is A-OK.

AntiFa Handbook

That doesn't play well at the polls, though, so sympathetic Dems never say it openly. In public, they condemn, distance themselves, and tsk-tsk. ...Unless you're DNC deputy Chairman Keith Ellison. Apparently, if you're Keith Ellison - the number two Democrat in the country - you are loud and proud about your love of Antifa's call to violence. Thank Mr. Ellison. It's good to know that the Democratic Party's second in command wants to see a violent revolution. Republicans, please. Make sure this ends up in as many 2018 and 2020 campaign ads as possible.
