As noted above, there's not really much to suggest that there are federal crimes being committed. Crimes don't become federal just because people are crossing state lines - you have to cross the state line as part of the crime for it to be a federal case. That's why "classic" crossing state line cases (kidnapping or carrying drugs across state lines) are federal cases - you're kidnapping or possessing the drugs the entire time.
The Antfia people ship supplies across state lines and have support networks that go from state to state, all with the intent of committing crimes.

Antifa and what they do fit the very definition of this law. Whether the DOJ chooses to pursue it is another matter (I suspect they won't, but they could if so motivated).
