This indictment of an Antifa cell in Texas is an interesting read, and puts a stake through the heart of the idea that this is an "idea" and not an organization. In this attack, they shot a police officer in the neck who was responding to their assault on a DHS facility.

Some highlights:

1) The cell in question was in possession of over 50 firearms, acquired over time for use in attacks, including high-power rifles with "binary triggers" allowing for more rapid fire;

2) The group coordinated its activities using an encrypted messaging app - they had group chats to organize;

3) In the attack that led to the shooting of the officer, they exchanged details for days, sending each other maps, agreeing on which of the 50 firearms to bring, etc. They made sure to bring multiple rifles because "cops are not prepared for more than one rifle, so they back off..."

4) They organized a staging house where some of them stayed before the attack.

What is encouraging is that the indictment refers to unnamed co-conspirators - meaning a couple people flipped, and are cooperating with the government. Hopefully the government gets better at this, and starts moving up the ladder to figure out what entities organize the cells on a higher level, where the funding is coming from, etc.

There is a link in the Fox News article to the full indictment if you want to take a look - it's short, like 10 pages.
