Wray reveals FBI 'looking carefully' at foreign interference in protests following George Floyd's death
LINK
The FBI is "looking carefully" at the possibility that foreign actors are influencing the sometimes-violent nationwide protests in the wake of George Floyd's in-custody death, FBI Director Christopher Wray exclusively told Fox News' Bret Baier on Wednesday.
Wray also revealed that "the FBI has over 2,000 active investigations that trace back to the government in China," marking "about a 1,300 percent increase in terms of economic espionage investigations with the Chinese nexus from about a decade ago."
"We have certainly seen in the past a variety of foreign adversaries looking to amplify controversy in this country," Wray said. "And they use state media. They use social media. Some of that is through propaganda, some of that's through disinformation, some of that's through just fake information. And we are looking carefully at the prospect of foreign influence or foreign interference in all of the protests and activities that have occurred over the last few weeks."

Impossible. This is a grass roots minority based movement.

I’d rather them look into the inside agitators than outside influence. Like George Soros et al.

I have no doubt foreign nations interfere. They have been doing it for a long time
But I am NOT ok with people trying to minimize or delegitimize genuine movements and views in America because a foreign nation happens to be “pushing it”.
It goes against our democratic ideals to just ignore people’s wishes and viewpoints.
This goes for populism, concern about racial stuff and police brutality, etc.
Just because Russia or China might be “encouraging it”, doesn’t mean it isn’t an organic, sincere cry for change from our citizens

Well the rest of us are NOT okay with Marxist radicals hijacking a movement against police brutality.
