President Donald Trump has turned his wrath on Antifa during the George Floyd protests, demanding Antifa be labeled a terrorist organization and accusing the movement of committing acts of violence at demonstrations. But journalists William Bredderman and Spencer Ackerman, in the Daily Beast, threw cold this week on efforts to blame the leftist group.
They found that “none of the 22 criminal complaints representing the first wave of protest charges mention Antifa in any way.”

Therein lays the problem with calling it an "organization", it isn't an organization in any conventional sense. It's a collection of loosely affiliated people. We'd likely have to examine the backgrounds / activities of any people arrested to see if they self identify with one of the Antifa groups.
Edit to add, some people may recognize it being a starfish and not a spider.

SPC Kevin Ford Bingo! ANTIFA Just Means Anti-Fascist. Loosely Affiliated. Not an Organization, No Membership Dues. Being Part German Jew, I Would Hope All Americans are ANTIFA, Anti-Fascist. I Know My 3 Uncles that Fought in WWII were ANTIFA.

SPC Kevin Ford As Far as Calling Me a Terrorist for Being Anti-Fascist. I would Actually call that a Correct Assessment from what I did during the Reagan Administration. "Baby Killer" Yeah I saw the Body of a Dead Infant as a Result of El Dorado Canyon, Yeah I'm a Baby Killer. Terrorist, Most Definitely I was Involved in Iran-Contra and the End Result I was Helping Fund Right Wing Death Squads that Had No Problem Killing Nuns and Priests for Preaching Social Justice.
