DNC and MSM start to disavow antifa
You can now add MSNBC’s Morning Joe (and, seemingly all of the co-hosts) to the slowly growing number of voices on the left condemning and disavowing the thuggery of antifa.
Just this morning, Rep. Nancy Pelosi sent out a press release in her role as minority leader denouncing the group. It would appear that President Trump naming the group in a recent speech produced some results.
One hold out seems to be Socialism Now:

It should be noted that just 24 hours ago you had leftist talking heads and DNC consultants running around defending antifa. Credit due to Chris Matthews for corning two of them here last week:
