Rep. Chip Roy: "ANTIFA is a left-wing group that SHOULD be investigated for creating terror and putting law-abiding Americans in DANGER. Congress can back up the president's efforts with its own committee investigations."

Tarrant County GOP Chair Bo French: "The left freaking out about @jimmykimmel getting fired for saying something that was NOT TRUE is really something. Do they not remember when old Twitter suspended the President for saying things that were TRUE?"
