ANTIFA is not an organization; it is not an acronym either. It is a shortened way of saying antifascist. The regime just declared that antifascism, the concept, is a terrorist organization.
I am antifascist in my politics, but I am not a terrorist. The regime are tyrants, which is why they must lie

Obama: We have to recognize that on both sides there are people who are extremists
But I will say that those extreme views were not in my White House. I wasn’t embracing them. I wasn’t empowering them. I wasn’t putting the weight of the government behind extremist views.

![PLAINTIFFS' OPPOSITION TO DEFENDANTS'
MOTION TO MODIFY SCHEDULE
At 6:43 p.m. yesterday, the United States Supreme Court issued an order finding that this Court "properly require[d] the Government to 'facilitate' Abrego Garcia's release from custody in
El Salvador and to ensure that his case is handled as it would have been had he not been improperly sent to El Salvador." Noem et al. v. Abrego Garcia et al., 604 U.S. _
(2025), slip op. at 2. The
Court further ordered the Government to "be prepared to share what it can concerning the steps it has taken and the prospect of further steps." Id.
Last night, this Court ordered the Government to file, no later than 9:30 a.m. today, a declaration from an individual with personal knowledge, "addressing the following: (1) the current physical location and custodial status of Abrego Garcia; (2) what steps, if any, Defendants have taken to facilitate Abrego Garcia's immediate return to the United States; and (3) what additional steps Defendants will take, and when, to facilitate his return." Dkt. 51.
This Court's order to facilitate Abrego Garcia's return was issued one week ago. It was
not stayed until Monday afternoon. Accordingly, the Government should have been taking actions Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and Monday morning, and the Government can report on those.
