Undercover Journalist Exposes Antifa's Teachers Who 'Throw Molotov Cocktails' [WATCH]

Independent journalist Karlyn Borysenko joined Fox News host Jesse Watters on Jesse Watters Primetime Friday, where she revealed that many members of the left-wing group Antifa, now designated a terrorist organization, have day jobs in professional fields including education and law.

Borysenko’s comments came as she discussed her recent undercover reporting on Antifa activity in cities such as San Francisco, Seattle, and Portland.

The organization has been active for years but drew renewed attention after President Donald Trump formally designated it a terrorist organization on September 17, citing its role in nationwide unrest and attacks against law enforcement and government property.

During the interview, Watters asked Borysenko about the group’s constant presence at protests outside U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facilities and at demonstrations in major cities.

“Do these people work, or do they just dance and light fires all night?” Watters asked.

“I think some of them do actually have jobs,” Borysenko replied.

“I mean, these are teachers, some of them are lawyers, some of them, you know, they’re Starbucks baristas, they’re Amazon employees. So, I don’t necessarily agree with the notion that they don’t work.”

Borysenko explained that many Antifa members use their income to fund protest operations through what the group calls “mutual aid.”

“That’s actually part of how they fund all the supplies in those tents is through something called mutual aid, where they take their salaries and they’re donating to those supplies,” she said.

“But certainly, there are some that are kind of out there 24/7.”

Watters pressed her to clarify whether she was saying that teachers were involved in violent activity.

“There are teachers that go and teach elementary school and then at night they throw Molotov cocktails at a building?” he asked.

“Oh, yeah, 100%,” Borysenko replied.

“I was just undercover at a couple of anarchist book fairs over the weekend in both San Francisco and Seattle. There were absolutely teachers in the crowd there. And I picked up multiple stickers and posters with Molotov cocktails, calls to kill ICE and calls to kill the police.”

Borysenko’s comments follow a series of reports highlighting Antifa’s continued activity in the Pacific Northwest.

Portland, in particular, has been a hub for the organization, where members frequently clash with law enforcement and target federal buildings, including ICE offices.

President Trump has repeatedly called for investigations into Antifa’s structure and funding.

He initially vowed in May 2020 to classify the group as a terrorist organization following widespread riots in Minneapolis after the death of George Floyd.

Federal officials have since increased monitoring of the organization’s online communications and financial networks.

Antifa’s origins trace back to at least 2007, but the group gained national attention during the 2020 protests, when its black-clad members appeared at demonstrations across major cities.

The network’s members operate without a centralized leadership structure but coordinate through regional collectives and online platforms.

Borysenko’s findings suggest that Antifa members often balance professional jobs with involvement in militant activism.

Her remarks have renewed questions about how deeply the group’s ideology has spread into mainstream workplaces, including schools and public institutions.

As federal agencies pursue investigations into Antifa’s organization and finances, the journalist said she plans to continue her reporting on the group’s inner workings and recruitment efforts.

“There are definitely people leading double lives,” Borysenko told Watters.
