🚨 Trump's "Antifa terrorist" executive order is unconstitutional bs.

No federal law allows domestic terrorist designations. The First Amendment still exists.

A group of approximately 20 people in business attire poses for a photo on the stone steps in front of the R. Slaton Courthouse, a neoclassical building with white stone columns and arched entrances. The building displays '136' as its address number. The group appears to be lawyers or legal professionals, dressed in suits and professional clothing, standing together after what was likely a court proceeding or legal event.
