“On the Holmes Front,” with Frank Holmes
“In politics, nothing happens by accident,” President Franklin D. Roosevelt once said. “If it happens, you can bet it was planned that way.” As it turns out, that includes the pro-Hamas rallies from coast to coast, erupting on college campuses and in urban centers.
While the media present these as organic uprisings, America’s pro-Hamas rallies are actually being planned, directed, and financed by millionaire Marxists you’ve never heard of—one of whom justified violence against U.S. soldiers.
Maybe it’s time you met the puppet masters funding the terrorists’ message.
The day after the October 7 Hamas assault on Israel, surprisingly well-organized rallies broke out in New York’s Times Square—featuring pre-printed signs, time-tested chants, and an enormous crowd on such short notice.
Critics condemned the rally for glorifying Palestinian terrorists, repeating anti-Semitic messages, and carrying signs they said expressed naked support for killing the Jewish people of Israel.
Many pro-Hamas rallies around the world are or turn anti-Semitic:
In New York City, some attendees praised Hamas terrorists infiltrating Israel on power paragliders and machine-gunning "hipsters." In Sydney, Australia, a dominant chant was "Gas the Jews." pic.twitter.com/DBrBY5D8I8— [email protected] (@BehroozParhami) October 12, 2023
“In New York City, some attendees praised Hamas terrorists infiltrating Israel on power paragliders and machine-gunning ‘hipsters,’” wrote one analyst.
“When people are occupied, resistance is justified!” read one bright yellow sign produced by the Party for Socialism and Liberation.
Remember that term that protesters use for kidnapping, raping, and murdering women and children, “resistance.” It will show up again.
Things got so bad that even one of Hamas’ biggest cheerleaders in Congress — Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y. — condemned the event.
“It should not be hard to shut down hatred and anti-Semitism where we see it. That is a core tenet of solidarity,” said AOC. “The bigotry and callousness expressed in Times Square on Sunday were unacceptable and harmful in this devastating moment.”
How bigoted does a left-wing event have to be before it’s called out by The Squad?
That massive outpouring of hate was the work of an extreme left-wing group called The People’s Forum. The group claims to carry out an agenda for “working class and marginalized communities,” but how many “working class” organizations can afford an office in Midtown Manhattan with 13 paid employees?
How many have the kind of money it takes to co-host 18 pro-Hamas rallies on the same day, from Copenhagen to Idaho?
How many working-class people want to go to lectures offered by the group, with titles like, “Lenin and the Path to Revolution”?
As it turns out, The People’s Forum does the work of two people: Marxist millionaires Jodie Evans and Neville Roy Singham, who donated $20.4 million to the group over five years.
The Communist couple’s involvement in these multiplying demonstrations should send chills down every American’s back.
Jodie Evans is a far-Left professional activist and Democratic donor who has two distinctions: She has claimed terrorists have the right to kill U.S. soldiers, and she’s made huge donations to a national ticket featuring Joe Biden.
Evans started her career in 1975 by working with ultra-liberal Democrat Jerry Brown, then-governor of California. She bounced between Democratic coalitions for years but joined up with Brown again when he ran for president in 1992. After that, she took a turn even further Left by backing the Green Party.
She co-founded a group called Code Pink, which often makes the news for interrupting congressional hearings…but it also met up dictators from Venezuelan dictator Hugo Chavez to Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.
Evans and one of her Code Pink partners started a group called International Occupation Watch to turn the world against U.S. troops—and even endorsed the terrorists killing them.
“We must begin by really standing with the Iraqi people and defending their right to resist. I can remain myself against all forms of violence, and yet I cannot judge what someone has to do when pushed to the wall to protect all they love,” Evans said in 2005.
“Resist,” she says. What does it mean when the anti-Trump Left calls itself “The Resistance”?
Despite—or perhaps because of—her radical, Hate America view of the world, Evans bundled at least $50,000 in 2008 for Barack Obama and Joe Biden.
Her latest husband, Neville Singham, is no better.
Singham joined the League of Revolutionary Black Workers at age 17 and helped organize some of the unreasonable strikes and labor activism that destroyed the U.S. auto industry in the 1970s.
Singham has called Venezuela under Hugo Chavez “phenomenally democratic place” and declared that “China is teaching the West” how to manage life, its citizens, and the economy.
One believes murdering Israeli (and undoubtedly U.S.) civilians is “resistance”; the other believes Communist China and Venezuela are the wave of the future.
With organizers and funders like those, no wonder the looks like this.
After Hamas committed a pogrom against Jews in Israel, killing over 700 innocent civilians, their supporters held a rally in Times Square, NYC, displaying a Nazi Swastika.
This makes it clear: Hamas is a neo-Nazi, antisemitic terrorist organization with the goal of erasing Jews… pic.twitter.com/gBRrHuEBeq

On one hand, Americans should be glad hatred so toxic did not spring up organically; they were carefully cultivated and funded by elitist socialist radicals.
On the other hand, we should be concerned that extreme anti-American hatemongers with views so out-of-the-mainstream can impact Americans so deeply.
Americans should shut their ears to the Communist message of Jodie Evans and her hubby.
