THREAD: Here's what you won't see on Trump's Twitter: Three members of the right-wing "Boogaloo" movement were charged with terrorism offenses after allegedly infiltrating a #BLM rally in Las Vegas, bringing guns and explosives, and urging protesters to attack the police. 
Here's the irony: These charges were brought by the DOJ, which is led by AG Bill Barr. Over the weekend, Barr singled out left-wing groups and Antifa as being responsible for much of the violence. Surely, Antifa is involved. But these first charges don't fit Barr's narrative.
Today, Barr adopted a broader and more accurate view, saying that "actors of a variety of different political persuasions have been involved in instigating and participating in the violent activity." (Still, this contradicts Trump, who has said Antifa is doing all the violence.)
Barr also said federal prosecutors are building cases against more domestic extremists, including some from Antifa. We'll see what announcements the DOJ makes in the coming days and weeks. Here's more from @davidgshortell. cnn.com/2020/06/04/pol…
This is an example of Trump being dishonest for no reason. It's reasonable to suspect that Antifa-types are responsible for most of the violence. (Barr says charges are coming.) But Trump dials it up to a 10, says they're the ONLY ones responsible, which is simply not the case.
