Antifa group suspended from Twitter after posting video of mobbing Tucker Carlson's home

An Antifa affiliate group in the nation's capital, Smash Racism D.C., was suspended from Twitter after posting a video of a mob descending on Fox News host Tucker Carlson’s home Wednesday evening.

The group — a far-left anti-fascism militant movement that often puts on violent and destructive demonstrations — posted the video on its Twitter account @SmashRacismDC, which is now directed to a suspended page, and the group later deleted the tweet.

"Tucker Carlson, we are outside your home to protest ... fascism and racism," a demonstrator can be heard saying in the video. "You promote hate."

In the video, the crowd can be heard chanting, “Tucker Carlson, we will fight! We know where you sleep at night!”

Carlson was not home at the time the mob appeared at his house, and was at Fox preparing for his evening show.

The Fox News host said someone from the group threw himself against the front door and caused it to crack.

The group’s Facebook page is still up and operational.

Smash Racism D.C. is responsible for staging other demonstrations against prominent Republican figures, including confronting Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, and his wife, Heidi Cruz, in a D.C. restaurant due to his support for Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh.

Since they can’t have a weapon in DC and shooting through a door outside isn’t really a good idea, would have been nice had she the time to prepare some pots etc of boiling water to throw on them.

Where were the neighbors?

What took the Police so long to respond?

Seems funny since she was on 911 and a mob pounding on her door, people with bullhorns threatening the occupants etc that the Police didn’t arrive in time to make a single arrest.

Old ‘joke’ about guy in similar situation calling the Police for help and no one was responding - HE called back and said he had opened fire on the crowd and half the town showed up in nano seconds.

It was suspended NOT to punish the criminals, but so the folks wouldn’t find out that antifa is a criminal mob.

I was wondering if they had a sprinkler system. Water balloons would have been fun.

I’m thinking with Soris history of turning fellow Jews into the Nazis, he is pretty familiar with Nazi tactics.

Tucker, get your wife a gun and make certain she knows how to use it.

Precisely! Without a video, there is no proof of the mob and no possiblity to locate any of the perps.

BTW: As far as I can tell, ANTIFA stands for Anti-FirstAmendment. That's certainly how they behave.

Anyone hear anything about the nationwide protests that were to happen at 5 this evening. Nothing in local news about it.

The anti-fascism fascists. I doubt that any of these idiots know anything about fascism.

Guarding and protecting antifa probably because his wife says that she called 911.

I was conjuring up thoughts of the ancient fortresses when the defenders ran out of arrows or spears, boiling oil poured from cauldrons was used to deter people from scaling the wall.

Has the Mayor and/or Police chief had a say in this yet?

She manages to toss in her .02 for anything happening around the country...Believe she had a ‘prepared statement’ inre Pittsburgh last week....

I also believe the President made a ‘mistake’ by setting a precedent today when he ordered the flags at half staff because of the CA shooting...

Next ‘tragedy’ of ABW and orders aren’t passed down swiftly, just another opening ...

That would be fine. Let a couple in your house and legally “stand your ground.”

“So Twitter wants to censor the video. They don’t want us to see what the Antifa crowd did to Tucker’s wife, and home.”

You have the correct take. Twitter is covering for their radical leftist brethren in Panti-fa.

At least that would provide some protection.

Certainly the local cops aren't providing any. Masked people close off both ends of the street and harass his wife and family and the cops do nothing. Are these "antifa cops"?

The local police are investigating these individuals for hate crimes and criminal damage. FNC is also going to bat to protect Tucker. Twitter knows who they are.
