AntiFA is a group that's dressed in black jump suit with face masks.

They throw M-80 explosives at pro-Trump protesters. (as far as i know, only the antifa throw it, not the pro-Trump supporters. According to Wikipedia, M-80 requires license to buy.)

The guy who punched her, is apparently also a nutty. He's Nathan Damigo, a veteran of Iraq War, and since become a White Nationalist. See https://www.everipedia.com/nathan-damigo/

Police are mostly not involved because apparently they are told to stand down.

by the way, you don't see video recording from the antifa side, because they have a rule or something not to record anything, and will actively hit those who video record.

For this reason, you can see some of the Trump supporters strapped sport video camera in front of their chest.

also, pro-Trump supporters wear helmets and goggles, some gas masks, because in February 1 UC Berkeley riot, the antifa has beaten people and pepper sprayed many people bloody.

there are gazillion twitters accounts that are anti-Tump or pro-Tump. Majority are mindless screeches.
