Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) and other House GOP lawmakers sent a letter to Attorney General Merrick Garland to demand that action be taken after Antifa rioters attacked journalist Andy Ngo, who has been largely critical of the anarcho-communist group and affiliated organizations, for the second time in recent days.
Ngo was attacked last month while he was in Portland, Oregon, he said in a Twitter thread. Ngo was covering a rally to mark the anniversary of George Floyd’s death—which sparked riots, arson incidents, and demonstrations in Portland and other U.S. cities last summer.
