Follow the Money Behind the Anti-Jewish Influencers

Over the last few months, many viewers on the right have noticed something jarring.

Voices they once trusted on lockdowns, mandates, censorship, and corruption are suddenly echoing a very different line: harshly anti-Israel rhetoric that slides, again and again, into attacks on “the Jews” as a people. The talking points appear almost overnight, then ricochet across shows, podcasts, X feeds, and Telegram channels.

Investigator and former intelligence professional Brian O’Shea has been asking a basic question:

If so many influencers are suddenly reading from the same script, who wrote it—and who’s paying for it?

In a recent episode of The Lair with Dr. Naomi Wolf, O’Shea laid out what he says is a multi-layered funding and influence network linking foreign socialist and communist groups, pro-Assad organizations, and a cluster of Western “anti-imperialist” media brands and influencers.

Below is a synthesis of his key findings, drawn from that conversation.

1. The Pattern: Identical Talking Points Across the “New Right”

O’Shea started where any good investigator does: by watching the content.

He went back through years of material from certain high-visibility commentators—especially Kim Iversen and Max Blumenthal—and noticed recurring themes:

• Soft-pedaling or denying the genocide of Uyghur Muslims in China

• Sympathetic or “neutral” takes on the Iranian regime

• A consistently hostile framing of Israel

• Increasingly sweeping statements that blur “Israelis,” “Zionists,” and “Jews” into one vilified category

Those same themes, he argues, now appear—often nearly word-for-word—in the feeds and shows of some conservative or “anti-establishment” influencers who present themselves as America First and pro-freedom.

To O’Shea, this looked less like organic convergence and more like an influence campaign migrating from the far left into parts of the populist right.

2. The First Money Trail: Syrian Solidarity and Pro-Assad Socialists

From content, O’Shea moved to funding.

He focused on the Syrian Solidarity Movement, which he describes as connected to the Syrian Social Nationalist Party, a long-standing pro-Assad, socialist formation in Syria.

According to O’Shea, publicly available information shows:

• The Syrian Solidarity Movement has financially rewarded or honored Western media figures and outlets, including:

  • Max Blumenthal’s outlet The Grayzone

  • Commentators such as Kim Iversen and Jimmy Dore

• These awards, while relatively modest in dollar terms (O’Shea mentioned figures like $5,000), are paired with praise for their coverage of Syria and “anti-imperialist” politics.

In O’Shea’s reading, this creates a direct incentive structure: voices that adopt a consistently pro-Assad, anti-Western, and anti-Israel editorial line can be amplified, legitimized, and financially rewarded by organizations tied to a socialist, authoritarian regime.

He also notes that funding for the Syrian Solidarity Movement itself is linked to a U.S. nonprofit/PAC structure whose acronym mirrors “APAC,” and that this same network has backed highly produced “alternative” documentaries about 9/11 and Middle East conflicts.

The bottom line, in his view:

Pro-Assad socialist networks are quietly underwriting and validating Western media figures whose messaging now heavily overlaps with the new antisemitic wave.

3. “MAGA Communism” and the American Communist Party

O’Shea then followed another line: the emergence of “MAGA communism.”

Key points from his research:

• Commentator Haz Al-Din (often called “Haz”) founded something he calls the American Communist Party, after years in the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA).

• Along with influencer Jackson Hinkle, he has promoted the idea of “MAGA communism”—a hybrid brand explicitly targeted at disaffected working-class conservatives.

• These figures have appeared on shows hosted by Kim Iversen and others in the same orbit, and they celebrate or promote content from Max Blumenthal and The Grayzone.

O’Shea’s concern is not that every guest spot equals a conspiracy, but that self-declared communists are being normalized inside a media ecosystem that many viewers still assume is broadly pro-American, pro-liberty, and anti-communist.

When those voices come bearing a highly emotional narrative about Israel, Jews, and “imperialism,” he argues, they are effectively smuggling communist framing into the populist right under a new label.

4. DSA, Congress, and a Parallel Track on the Left

On the traditional left, O’Shea highlights the role of the Democratic Socialists of America:

• DSA is not a formal political party but the largest socialist organization in the United States, with tens of thousands of members.

• O’Shea notes that many members of “The Squad” and other progressive officeholders have run with DSA backing or membership.

• He points to reporting that DSA has donated to PACs connected with CAIR and other groups, funding campaigns that include unapologetically anti-Israel candidates.

In his view, DSA and similar structures function as a “cuckoo bird” inside the Democratic Party—using the party’s ballot access and brand while working, long-term, to replace it with an openly socialist formation.

That is one prong of the strategy, he says.

The second prong is the penetration of the populist right via “MAGA communism” and the influencer networks already mentioned. Both sides are pushed toward extreme, mutually hostile positions, while the underlying ideological driver—modern communism—remains mostly unnamed.

5. Trade, China, and the Strategic Motive to Target Israel

O’Shea then zooms out to a geopolitical level and asks: Why keep coming back to Israel and the Jews? Why now?

His answer centers on trade routes and energy.

According to his analysis:

• China’s Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) seeks to dominate global trade and infrastructure, including corridors running through Turkey, Syria, Lebanon, and beyond.

• At the same time, the U.S., Israel, India, Saudi Arabia, and others were working on a competing project often described as the India–Middle East–Europe corridor (IMEC)—a direct challenger to Chinese influence.

• O’Shea notes that just days after key progress on this corridor, the October 7th attack plunged Israel and the region into crisis, effectively stalling momentum on that Western-aligned project.

From this vantage point, he argues, Israel is not just a religious or cultural flashpoint—it is a strategic obstacle to Chinese and allied authoritarian ambitions in the Middle East.

Destabilizing Israel, isolating it diplomatically, and fracturing U.S. domestic support for the U.S.–Israel–Saudi–India alignment all serve the long game of global communism and authoritarian expansion, he contends.

To achieve that, you need:

• An Israel that is painted as a genocidal pariah

• Jews broadly equated with that “pariah” status

• Christian conservatives shamed or bullied out of solidarity with Jewish communities

• A fractured MAGA movement fighting itself instead of opposing authoritarianism

And that is where the influence-and-funding networks O’Shea tracks come back into focus.

6. How Funding Enables a Manufactured “Right-Wing Antisemitism”

Putting the pieces together, O’Shea’s picture looks like this:

1. Foreign socialist and pro-Assad networks financially reward and legitimize specific Western outlets and personalities who:

   • attack Israel,

   • downplay atrocities by regimes like China’s CCP,

   • and frame world events through “anti-imperialist” and “anti-Zionist” narratives.

2. Self-declared communists and Marxists (American Communist Party, “MAGA communism,” and others) cross-pollinate with right-leaning independent media, bringing that same narrative set into a new audience.

3. Trusted conservative influencers, whether consciously or not, begin to echo those lines, which:

   • blur “Israel” and “Jews,”

   • insist that Jews are the new “Nazis,”

   • and depict support for Israel as complicity in genocide.

4. The result is a manufactured split between conservative Christians and conservative Jews—historically one of the strongest pro-Constitution, pro-Israel, pro-America voting blocs.

Whether every participant understands the full picture or not, O’Shea argues, the funding and ideological origins are traceable, and the beneficiaries are authoritarian regimes and modern communist movements, not American patriots.

7. What Brian O’Shea Wants Viewers to Take Away

Throughout the conversation, O’Shea stresses a few key cautions:

• Influencers are not your pastors or your family. They are often reading sponsorship copy, editorial guidance, or talking points that come from somewhere—and sometimes that “somewhere” is a foreign regime or its front groups.

• You can oppose bad policies without dehumanizing entire peoples. Criticizing specific Israeli decisions is not the same as endorsing a narrative that “the Jews” are the problem.

• Communist strategy has always relied on coalitions and scapegoats. The documentation he cites (including Cold War–era analyses and Lenin’s own writings) describes a playbook in which communists:

  • ally with social democrats and “liberal” elements to gain power,

  • then discard or persecute those same allies once power is secured,

  • always keeping a convenient enemy—“fascists,” “imperialists,” or now “Zionists”—in the public crosshairs.

In O’Shea’s view, today’s surge of antisemitic content from some corners of the right is not an accident and not victimless. It is part of a broader strategy to:

• weaken U.S. alliances in the Middle East,

• undermine America’s position in global trade,

• and fracture the internal coalition of constitutional conservatives, Christians, and Jews that might otherwise resist an authoritarian realignment.

8. Where Do We Go From Here?

DailyClout cannot independently verify every element of O’Shea’s investigation, and readers should always do their own due diligence. But the core challenge he raises is one our audience knows well:

Follow the money. Question the script. Ask who benefits when Americans turn on each other instead of on the systems that are truly eroding our freedom.

If the same foreign-linked networks that once targeted the left are now courting the populist right with carefully engineered antisemitic narratives, then this is not just about one influencer, one show, or one feud.

It is about whether Americans of good faith—Christian, Jewish, Muslim, and secular alike—will allow themselves to be played against each other by regimes and ideologies that have no interest in our Constitution, our freedoms, or our survival.

DailyClout will continue to publish O’Shea’s findings as more financial documents, organizational links, and propaganda pipelines come into focus.
