UMVA has learned that a massive, highly coordinated foreign influence operation appears to be underway on social media, seemingly backed by Israel, in an attempt to undermine President Donald Trump's Iran peace deal.
The operation involves flooding social media platforms with recycled old videos of Secretary of State Marco Rubio, taken out of context, in a blatant effort to falsely portray him as opposing Trump's efforts to secure peace with Iran and to sow division among the president's supporters and within the administration itself.
Top Trump advisor Alex Bruesewitz has sounded the alarm on this suspicious activity, highlighting how numerous accounts are reposting the exact same old clip, originally from February, while presenting the comments as if they were brand new and related to the current negotiations. Bruesewitz warned that any 'influencer' amplifying those old clips today should not be trusted.
Further investigation reveals that pro-Israel accounts, many of them very new, have also been spreading deliberate misinformation about the conditional reconstruction and investment fund tied to the deal, implying it will be paid by American taxpayers, which is false. Administration officials have clarified that it would be funded by Gulf states and private investors and would only become available if Iran fully complies with strict conditions.
Bruesewitz has documented a clear pattern of suspicious social media activity aligned with Israeli interests around the administration's memorandum of understanding with Iran, which aims to end hostilities, reopen the Strait of Hormuz, and advance broader talks. He has demanded full disclosure from any influencer receiving foreign compensation.
In a bold statement, Bruesewitz declared himself "enemy number one of the pro-war bots and 'influencers'" simply for backing the president's commitment to ending the conflict. He noted that Israel holds what appears to be the largest FARA-registered contract in history with an American right-wing influencer marketing company, reportedly on track to exceed $46 million in a single year.
Bruesewitz has consistently opposed any foreign government, whether Israel, Qatar, Russia, China, or others, paying influencers or running bot networks to influence policy or public opinion. He has called out several influencers, including Mark Levin, for potentially working with foreign governments to influence American public opinion.
A White House insider has revealed that the administration is closely tracking online influence campaigns and strongly disapproves of them. The insider's comments suggest that the White House is aware of the influence operations and is taking steps to counter them.
