Fmr. Antifa Member: A lot Of The Group’s Mainstream Supporters Are Democratic Left

Former Antifa member Gabriel Nadales was a liberal activist who joined Antifa because was inspired by their rallies and their efforts to take up a “righteous cause” which was a fight against fascism, he told “Fox & Friends” Friday.
“Antifa is an organization that is made up of several different radical leftist organizations. They pretend that they’re fighting against fascism, which is in the name Antifa, Antifascism,” Nadales explained. “But, unfortunately, Antifa is not really fighting against fascism. They’re willing to fight anybody who does not share their leftist radical mentality of socialism and communism.”
The violent riots that have recently erupted across the U.S. in the aftermath of the tragic death of George Floyd haven’t happened by coincidence, he said, pointing to where the riots began in St. Paul, Portland, Los Angeles, Chicago, Austin, which are all “where Antifa has been allowed to operate for years, sometimes uncontested.”
“They started the riots and then normal Americans joined in as well.”
“Antifa used to be this movement that nobody really knew about, but now, it has mainstream supporters. And a lot of them are in the Democratic left.”
Attorney General William Barr said Thursday that there is evidence that the militant-anarchist group has a role in the riots of recent days. He said Thursday, “We have evidence that Antifa and other similar extremist groups, as well as actors of a variety of different political persuasions, have been involved in instigating and participating in the violent activity. And we are also seeing foreign actors playing all sides to exacerbate the violence.”

Florida Congressman Byron Donalds Considers Gubernatorial Run in 2026

Republican Representative Byron Donalds from Florida is contemplating a potential bid for the governorship of the Sunshine State in 2026, according to a source close to him confirmed by Fox News Digital.
Donalds, who has been a vocal supporter of former President Donald Trump, revealed to Fox News Digital his current focus on assisting Trump’s bid to return to office, stating, “I’m committed to making Biden a one-term president. We’ll focus on that other stuff after President Trump gets inaugurated.”
This announcement comes as Donalds finds himself at the forefront of the ongoing efforts in the House to pass a continuing resolution aimed at preventing a government shutdown. He has been actively involved in seeking a bipartisan consensus to ensure government funding through the end of October, as the September 30th deadline approaches.
Additionally, Donalds has expressed his willingness to serve as Trump’s running mate if asked by the former president, adding intrigue to his potential gubernatorial ambitions.
Notably, this development emerges amid speculations about a gubernatorial run by another prominent Florida Republican, Representative Matt Gaetz. Gaetz recently dismissed such rumors, affirming his focus on supporting Trump’s prospective 2024 White House run.
The timing of Donalds’ potential candidacy for Florida’s governorship coincides with the state’s constitution barring current Governor Ron DeSantis from seeking re-election in 2026 due to term limits.
While House Republicans have generally reached a consensus on the funding measure, some holdouts, including Gaetz, threaten to disrupt the process. Gaetz has even raised the possibility of a mutiny against House Speaker Kevin McCarthy to challenge his leadership.
However, McCarthy has downplayed these threats, responding to Gaetz’s intentions during a House GOP conference meeting with the directive to “file a f—ing motion” if he intends to remove him from his position as House Speaker.
The outcome of the continuing resolution and the dynamics within the House Republican caucus will undoubtedly influence the political landscape in Florida and the aspirations of figures like Byron Donalds in the years to come.
