Longtime Trump critic George Conway wears ‘I am Antifa’ T-shirt at DC ‘No Kings’ rally

WASHINGTON, DC: George Conway, the ex-GOP attorney who’s made a career out of slamming President Donald Trump, was spotted this weekend sending an eyebrow-raising political message emblazoned across his chest.

At the “No Kings” rally in Washington, DC, on Saturday, October 18, the Lincoln Project co-founder turned heads with a black T-shirt emblazoned with the words, “I am Antifa.”

The protest was one of several “No Kings” demonstrations held across the country and targeted the Trump administration and its policies, calling for “nonviolent action” and a pushback against what organizers described as authoritarianism.

A photo snapped by the Daily Caller and later posted by Conway himself on the left-leaning social platform Bluesky showed him walking among the crowd, looking unbothered.

The event’s official website claims it’s all about peaceful resistance, though underground leftist blogs reportedly urged attendees to take more radical measures.

Trump’s crackdown on Antifa

The Trump administration has been on a warpath against Antifa. Back in September, the president officially designated the group as a domestic terrorist organization following the high-profile killing of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk. Federal authorities believe Kirk's shooting was politically motivated.

In his executive order, Trump directed the administration to “utilize all applicable authorities to investigate, disrupt, and dismantle any and all illegal operations.” The Department of Justice (DOJ) followed up just this week with its first-ever federal terrorism case against two suspects allegedly tied to Antifa ideology.

Prosecutors say the pair coordinated a July attack on a Texas immigration detention facility. The FBI is also digging deeper into possible connections between leftist groups and Kirk’s killing.

Meanwhile, Conway has been one of Trump’s most relentless antagonists since his first tenure, when his then-wife, Kellyanne Conway, served as senior counselor to the president.

Earlier this year, Conway got emotional on 'The Bulwark Podcast', tearing up as he described what he called Trump’s threats to “democracy” and the “rule of law.”

George Conway questions Trump’s 'routine' check-up narrative

Earlier this month, George Conway found something fishy about Donald Trump’s supposedly “routine physical” at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center.

The October 10 visit, described by the president’s physician, Capt Sean Barbabella, as part of a “health maintenance plan,” mentioned that Trump received both a flu shot and a Covid-19 booster. It was a curious combo for a guy whose Health and Human Services secretary is vaccine critic Robert F Kennedy Jr.

CNN’s Kaitlan Collins flagged the detail, but Conway wasn’t even looking at the vaccines. He was focused on one cryptic phrase in the doctor’s statement. “'Advanced imaging’ are the important words here,” he wrote in response to Collins’ post.

According to Barbabella, however, the visit was part of Trump's "ongoing health maintenance plan and included advanced imaging, laboratory testing, and preventive health assessments conducted by a multidisciplinary team of specialists. These evaluations were performed in coordination with leading academic and mental consultants to ensure optimal cardiovascular health and continued wellness.”

Comparing Trump to Tony Soprano

Back in August, George Conway compared the president to TV mob boss Tony Soprano.

“We don’t have Ronald Reagan anymore. We have Tony Soprano,” Conway said, slamming Trump’s federal takeover of Washington, DC. “He’s holding people up, threatening them, bullying them, doing things beyond his legal power to do. And that scares people.”

“We see the intimidation of people who have had the courage, like Miles [Taylor], to speak out and criticize the president,” he added. “There is no limit to how low he will go, and what he will do to intimidate and to threaten and to assert power over things.”
