Leftists commemorate July 4th by fundraising for antifa 'comrades'

A Baltimore bookstore, Red Emma’s, announced plans on Thursday to reflect on America’s 250th Independence Day by fundraising for detained antifa criminals and defendants.

Red Emma’s “F*** The 4th” event on Friday will raise money for nine convicted in a July 4, 2025, terrorist attack in Texas and 15 charged with conspiring to impede law enforcement in Minnesota, according to the store’s Instagram post. The announcement invited viewers to join in “unpatriotic socializing” and support the legal defense for the jailed “comrades.” Around 40 miles away, thousands are scheduled to celebrate the nation’s 250th birthday alongside President Donald Trump on Washington’s National Mall throughout the weekend.
