As far as I can tell the Trump White House didn't invoke any specific (Congress) laws for declaring Antifa a 'domestic terrorist organization' in an Executive Order, as EOs sometimes if not usually do [invoke Congress legislation]. Not surprising since a bunch of those e.g. 18 U.S.C. 2339B only seem to cover foreign terrorist organizations. Perhaps the WH wants to argue that that power to declare domestic terrorist threats is inherent in the Constitution, as they say Antifa "explicitly calls ...| Recent Questions - Politics Stack Exchange
Recently, Trump, followed by the Netherlands and Hungary, expressed intentions to designate Antifa as a terrorist organization. The legality of designating Antifa as terrorists is also questionable, as stated in the links. Nevertheless, even intentions may sometimes have some basis. So which specific acts, proven to have been committed by Antifa as an organization, have been officially designated as terrorist acts?| Recent Questions - Politics Stack Exchange
On the second anniversary of the deadliest attacks in Israel's history, Genie Godula is pleased to welcome Gil Dickmann, cousin of slain hostage Carmel Gat, and one of the most vocal defenders of the hostage families.

As the number of arrests in the wake of November’s deadly counterterror siege grows, the killing by security forces of a 19-year-old in Pankisi has caused controversy.
