Federal authorities have been warning state and local officials since early 2016 that leftist extremists known as “antifa” had become increasingly confrontational and dangerous, so much so that the Department of Homeland Security formally classified their activities as “domestic terrorist violence,” according to interviews and confidential law enforcement documents obtained by POLITICO.


If they are domestic terrorists, why in the hell has not the federal gubberment got involved and shut this down?

Good question, also why keep it secret? It would seem they're complacent in furthering the false narrative put forth by most of the media that antifa are some kind of heroes and all the problems are because of white supremacist.

That's kind of my way of thinking.
I'm sure the FBI has infiltrated both sanctions, and it's a long process to get the right intel for a good bust, but the media is working against them as well by showing their riots that include beatings of innocents, destruction of personal property, Public property, and so on.
Meanwhile local governments like Portland allow antifa to be domestic terrorists while telling the police to stand down and let it happen.
Reminds me of Baltimore when the black female mayor said the rioters needed space to work out their frustrations while burning down and terrorizing the very businesses in their own community! That is insane.
Meanwhile US taxpayer dollars are rebuilding the area. That is also insane.

It all seems to go along with the narrative of capitalist white men being the devil and pandering to all the "oppressed peoples" who are never anything but innocent victims who will provide the great utopia if allowed to rule, Marx is laughing and it ain't Groucho.

Either shut them down when they are a somewhat smaller group r wait until they have metastasized and it will be far more difficult. It's interesting to note that old man Bernie won't speak out against them.

What would Bernie say? Seems he's between a rock and a hard place, if he speaks out against violence he risk being seen as disputing Marx and loosing his support. On the other hand if he comes out and honestly admits the link between the revolution and violence then the people would know the truth which would hurt the cause.

Well he could renounce his ideology for starters. :)
