Thousands are filling the streets outside the DNC to protest the Israel-Hamas war and the current administration's handling of it.
Democrats are turning their focus to the future under a potential Kamala Harris administration in the second day of the DNC .CHICAGO, ILLINOIS - AUGUST 19: Demonstrators march near the United Center which is hosting the Democratic National Convention on August 19, 2024 in Chicago , Illinois. The convention runs through August 22.
Of those, more than 150 are classified as “extremist groups" by the CRC, which under their categorization means the groups either support terrorist organizations and/or identify as Marxist, communist or anarchists. "One of the leading organizations is the U.S. Palestinian Community Network, and they are openly pro-Hamas. They’ve actually been under counter-terrorism investigation by the FBI back in 2010," explained Ryan Mauro, an investigative researcher at CRC.
"Tracing the actual funding is very difficult, because there’s various arrangements through which these groups fundraise and you’re able to hide those funds," said Mauro.
