Is Andy Ngo left or right?
Andy Ngo is a conservative journalist and editor-at-large at The Post Millennial, a right-leaning Canadian outlet, and describes himself as an independent journalist; his work centers almost entirely on documenting antifa and left-wing protest movements. He became nationally prominent after masked protesters beat and hospitalized him while he filmed a Portland demonstration in 2019, an experience that shaped his 2021 book Unmasked and his ongoing coverage of what he calls anarchist-communist political violence. His reporting is embraced on the right and heavily criticized on the left. In October 2025 he was among the independent journalists invited to a White House roundtable on antifa after President Trump signed an executive order designating the movement a domestic terrorist organization, and through 2026 he has continued reporting on antifa-related prosecutions and clashes at federal immigration facilities.
