Evening Edition: Iran Is Funding Anti-Israel Protests In America

The Director of National Intelligence, Avril Haines, this week confirmed Iran has had a major role in the anti-Israel protests that swept through college campuses and cities across the United States. Director Haines said there is evidence that "actors tied to Iran’s government" are providing funding and organization of these protests in what he described as an "increasingly aggressive" campaign. Haines added that he believes many of the protestors are being manipulated but as we approach the election, it is Iran's bid to "undermine faith in our democratic institutions."

FOX’s Eben Brown speaks with Victoria Coates, former deputy national security advisor to President Donald Trump and Vice President of National Security and Foreign Policy at The Heritage Foundation, who says this announcement is not a surprise and any influence by Iran in the United States is a national security threat.
