Pelosi and Biden are really making me regret defending them against right wing BS conspiracy claims and tankie conspiracy claims for the past decade.
The only thing shocking here is that commenters seem outraged that this would be considered a possibility.
There is a hell of a lot of a lot of foreign interference in American news and politics. Russia, China and the Saudis know no one can defeat the USA except the USA so they push as much division as possible on both ends of the political spectrum.
I want to preface that there are good people on both sides who want the bad people on both sides to stop being....bad. That said, Russia (Putin and his government) is super bad. If Putin can tie up resources anywhere else but against Russia, they're going to do it and often, it just costs them money and/or backroom political deals. The only reason I think her investigation is a bad idea, is because she's not going to find enough evidence - but not because it isn't happening.
It sounds stupid but she's right. The new crop of loudly political "Protesters" is fueled by a Right Wing astroturfing campaign to get people to throw away their vote this November. The Right Wing is a huge, global group of rich and powerful dickheads who are slowly but surely taking over control of all the world's governments, and this is gonna be the next one, because all you kiddos can't pay attention long enough to realize that you're getting played RIGHT NOW.
It makes perfect sense to check if there's a good reason. I'm curious because many of the protests recently at US universities were supported or started by people who weren't students.
