David Hogg says grandfather was 'part of the Antifa forces' who fought in WWII
Washington Examiner ^ | 6/1/20 | Spencer Neale

David Hogg, a Parkland shooting survivor-turned-gun control activist, compared law enforcement and officials in President Trump's administration to fascists, saying his grandfather fought with antifa against similar forces during World War II.

Hogg, who has been highly critical of the Trump administration, suggested the president called his grandfather and other veterans "terrorists" when Trump said the United States would designate antifa a terrorist organization.

"My grandpa was part of the Antifa forces in WWII sad Donald Trump has labeled him and his fellow vets as terrorists," Hogg tweeted.

Trump has blamed the left-wing antifa movement for violent demonstrations across the country in several cities, including looting, arson, and major clashes between protesters and law enforcement. The president said Sunday that the U.S. would designate antifa a domestic terrorist organization.

The protests began last week after George Floyd, a black man, died after a white Minneapolis police officer pressed a knee into Floyd's neck for nearly nine minutes during an arrest.

Hogg and other left-wing figures have shrugged off the blame that has been placed on antifa for the wave of violence, fixating on how the name, which is short for anti-fascist, is representative of those who have fought against fascist regimes, including Nazi Germany. Critics on the Right have for years said antifa activists pose a threat. Republican Sens. Bill Cassidy and Ted Cruz called them "hateful, intolerant radicals" as they filed a resolution last summer to categorize antifa as a domestic terrorist organization.

Attorney General William Barr said on Saturday that "many places" across the country were seeing violent protests spurred by "anarchic" and "far-left extremist groups." He added that agitators were using "antifalike tactics” and that many of them were traveling from out of state to participate in the protests.

Barr added on Sunday that the violence being “instigated and carried out” by "antifa and other similar groups" in connection to nationwide rioting is “domestic terrorism and will be treated accordingly.”

More stupidity from Hogg the Dummy. Soros must be paying his tuition at Harvard plus a million or so a year to reserve a chair for such a dummy.

yea sure. He's not old enough to have a grandfather in WW2. Those men are either already dead are in the late 80s, early 90s.
His grandparents are most likely at the OLDEST in their late 60s.

This is another LIE the idiots on twitter are spouting. And FU for comparing brave men who fought Nazi soldiers to punk thugs who are destroying PRIVATE CITIZINS lively hood and setting churches on fire.

Don't get between Hogg and a camera, if you value your life. Absolute scum. Hopefully, after the war, we have give some of these propagandists the Julius Streicher treatment.

"Soros must be paying his tuition at Harvard plus a million or so a year to reserve a chair for such a dummy. "

For the record, the days of Harvard and the other Ivy colleges/universities being the elite houses of higher education for the best and brightest have been over for quite awhile - if those reputations were ever true.

a Parkland shooting survivor..

Survivor? I live a thousand miles from Parkland and am as much a 'survivor' as is Mr.Hog.

IIRC, he was on the other side of the school when the shots rang out, and he ran for his life with scores of other students. His risk of danger was practically zero.

Survivor? Sure, ok..

So...why did anyone even think to ask his opinion on the subject?
