Rep. Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., on Sunday said she hopes to ask the FBI to investigate protesters calling for a cease-fire in the Israel-Hamas war and suggested that some of the antiwar demonstrations are linked to Russia. During an interview on CNN’s “State of the Union,” the former House speaker shared her belief that some of the protesters are “connected” to Russian President Vladimir Putin.
“For them to call for a cease-fire is Mr. Putin’s message, Mr. Putin’s message. Make no mistake. This is directly connected to what he would like to see. Same thing with Ukraine. It’s about Putin’s message,” Pelosi said.
“I think some of these — some of these protesters are spontaneous and organic and sincere. Some, I think, are connected to Russia, and I say that having looked at this for a long time now,” she continued.
Pressed on whether she thinks some of the protesters are Russian plants, Pelosi said she would like to have the FBI look into the matter. “I didn’t say they’re plants. I think some financing should be investigated,” she said. “And I want to ask the FBI to investigate that.”

The People’s Forum, which reportedly has been primarily funded by Singham and Jodie Evans since 2017, has organized several pro-Palestinian demonstrations since the attack on Israel by Hamas on October 7, 2023, that killed roughly 1,200 Israelis and foreign civilians and led to Israel engaging in military operations against the Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip.
On the day of the attack, the People’s Forum failed to condemn Hamas, instead choosing to call for an end to “US aid to the Zionist occupation.” The People’s Forum organized a protest the next day on October 8, 2023, and via social media encouraged attendees to go “all out for Palestine,” and called for supporters to stand with the people of the Palestinian Territories “who have the right to resist apartheid, occupation & oppression.”
The People’s Forum executive director Manolo De Los Sar called the November 2023 March for Israel demonstration in Washington, D.C. a “Pro-Genocide March,” and accused speakers at the demonstration of being “racists” and “fake progressives.”

The People’s Forum has appeared to admit that it was funded by Singham. The organization stated on X, formerly Twitter, that it was “the target of a campaign that alleges our funding comes from ‘dark money’.” The organization continued by stating Singham was a “Marxist comrade who sold his company & donated most of his wealth to non-profits that focus on political education, culture & internationalism.”

The Party for Socialism and Liberation (PSL) is a communist party in the United States. PSL was established in 2004, when its members split from the Workers World Party. The group believes that a socialist revolution is necessary to overthrow capitalism and establish socialism.[2] The organization works toward this end by organizing and participating in local protests, running candidates in elections, and political education favoring a revolutionary socialist vanguard party.

And yes, Party of Socialism and Liberation has their own candidate for president.

Anti-Israeli groups have been around for a long time. When this happened they were ready to pounce. Who is funding them?
They don't seem all that grass-roots me.

Representative Nancy Pelosi, Democrat of California and the former House speaker, on Sunday called for the F.B.I. to investigate protesters demanding a cease-fire in the Israel-Hamas conflict, suggesting without evidence that some activists may have ties to Russia and President Vladimir V. Putin.
“For them to call for a cease-fire is Mr. Putin’s message,” Ms. Pelosi said during an interview on CNN’s “State of the Union.” “Make no mistake, this is directly connected to what he would like to see. Same thing with Ukraine. It’s about Putin’s message. I think some of these protesters are spontaneous and organic and sincere. Some, I think, are connected to Russia.”
When pressed on whether she believed some of the demonstrators were “Russian plants,” Ms. Pelosi said: “Seeds or plants. I think some financing should be investigated. And I want to ask the F.B.I. to investigate that.”
Ms. Pelosi, who was first elected speaker in 2007 and again in 2019, led House Democrats for 20 years before stepping aside for Representative Hakeem Jeffries of New York, the minority leader. Still, she remains influential among congressional Democrats. Her remarks appear to be the first time a prominent U.S. politician has publicly suggested Russia may be backing cease-fire protests to help foment division among Democrats. … The Council on American-Islamic Relations condemned Ms. Pelosi’s comments as “an unsubstantiated smear” and “downright authoritarian.”

Our entire system of communications has been hacked and compromised.
Why can't we address that head-on?
Just like with the Vietnam War. Woo hoo!
I'm sure that would go over well.
