Writing on Breitbart, Christopher Tomlinson has now documented the history of Antifa in Europe, calling it “a warning to America.” Antifa, Tomlinson explains, “does not stand just for simply anti-fascism but rather for the organization Antifaschistische Aktion, originally the paramilitary arm of the Pro-USSR German Communist Party (KPD).

Its actions today are not merely against fascism, but explicitly for a mix of anarchism and communism by any means necessary.” The first incarnation of Antifa 1932 was a communist paramilitary street-fighting organization, comparable to the Nazi Brownshirts, Mussolini’s Blackshirts and the Socialist Iron Front, Tomlinson writes....

George Soros attended a meeting of the “Democracy Alliance” along with Nancy Pelosi and Elizabeth Warren in the Mandarin Oriental Hotel in Washington, one week after Trumps election. “Soros presented a plan to merge the three major donor groups – the Women Donors Network, the Solidaire Network, and the Democracy Alliance – into a powerful new fund specifically aimed at undermining Donald Trump’s agenda and developing a rapid response to Republican policies.” This was the birth of “The Resistance”....

Fascism - a phenomenon of the left, CAIRCO research:

Today it's commonplace for leftist liberals to call conservatives fascists. But the reality is that fascism derives from traditional liberalism. Fascism is a liberal / progressive concept, and has nothing to do with conservatism.

Modern liberalism derived from twentieth-century progressivism, and shared commonality with European fascism, where it was expressed as militant nationalism with blatant racist overtones.

Before World War II, fascism was viewed as a positive, progressive social movement in both America and Europe. Then the Holocaust completely changed our view of fascism to that of evil nationalism and genocidal racism....

Today’s liberalism embodies a soft, yet still totalitarian, form of fascism. Fascism in the United States is expressed in the milder form of progressivism - as a softer form of totalitarianism more in alignment with American culture. ...
