The event was disrupted by Antifa protesters dressed in black,resulting in violence and injuries. A notable viral story involved a conservative attendee wearing a red &#8220;Freedom&#8221; T-shirt who was assaulted by a protester named Jihad dphrepaulezz, who forcibly removed his cross necklace and punched him multiple times. Both individuals were detained, but the victim was released while Dphrepaulezz was charged with assault and robbery.<\/p>\n<p>Attorney General Pam Bondi condemned Antifa as a national threat and announced an FBI-led investigation into the riots. However, critics highlight a perceived lack of action from President Donald Trump, despite previous violence involving Antifa at berkeley dating back to 2017, including earlier riots and the 2025 murder of conservative activist Charlie Kirk. calls have been made to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/house-republicans-slam-biden-administrations-disturbing-attack-on-charter-schools\/\" title=\"House Republicans Slam Biden Administration\u2019s \u2018Disturbing Attack\u2019 on Charter Schools\">cut federal funding<\/a> to Berkeley for failing to maintain campus safety and <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >allowing ongoing violent protests<\/a>.
