Is a vote for Biden really a vote for Antifa?

Ya after 1930 it became clear who was running the show.

ANTIFA should have been declared a terrorist organization and banned as soon as they started fomenting violence at protests in the US.

go for it.

Antifaā€™s actions are certainly consistent with working to violently overthrow the US government.

The response from the mainstream media and Democrats is either to ignore the problem or to spread lies and misinformation about what is obviously going on.

Antifa is a terrorist group; it is not peaceful protestors. Virtually every time Antifa is present any protests end up with violence. That is no accident.

Does Congress have the authority to ban a organization?

They do if it is a terrorist or criminal organization.

Criminal organization are not banned.
and Congress can only ban association to Foreign Terrorist organization.

Membership in a criminal organization is a crime.

Congress is not prohibited from passing legislation designating domestic terror organizations.

No, of course not.

ā€œFreedom of associationā€, and all that.

That isnā€™t how RICO works.

There is no ā€œfreedom to associateā€ to engage in organized criminal or terrorist activity.

sure there is that is why the Mob still exists.

Thatā€™s exactly how it works.

Under RICO, it is a crime for an individual to belong to an ā€œenterpriseā€ that is involved in a pattern of racketeering, even if the racketeering was committed by other members. Specifically, Section 1962 of RICO prohibits ā€œany personā€ from: (a) using income received from a pattern of racketeering activity or from the collection of an unlawful debt to acquire an interest in an enterprise affecting interstate commerce; (b) acquiring or maintaining through a pattern of racketeering activity or through collection of an unlawful debt an interest in an enterprise affecting interstate commerce; (c) conducting or participating in the conduct of the affairs of an enterprise affecting interstate commerce through a pattern of racketeering activity or through collection of an unlawful debt; or (d) conspiring to participate in any of these activities.

You need to connect them to a crime, as noted.

You really should actually learn something about the subjects upon which you pontificate before doing so.

For RICO act to work you need to connect them to a crime committed.
the simply association is not a crime.

Crawfishing and weaseling.

To even meet to conspire as to how to commit a crime is a crime.

See ā€œconspiracyā€ and ā€œcollusionā€.

Yes so you would need to proof they conspired.
simply being part of a criminal organization is not a crime.
hence why the Hell Angels still exist.

Just stop already CJ, this is getting sad.

Why does the Hell Angel still exist, shouldnā€™t all their member be locked up for simple association.
