Extremists plotting to wreak havoc at the Democratic National Convention (DNC) include a Missouri man charged with spying for Russia, sparking fears the Kremlin could seek to unleash chaos at the conference.
Police are already braced for massive protests at the August convention, with agitators threatening a throwback to 1968 when the event turned into a bloodbath.
In recent weeks, clashes at university campuses over the Israel-Hamas conflict have raised concerns that the far left is ramping up plans for a major show of force.
But DailyMail.com can now reveal that those plotting to bring chaos to the streets of Chicago include an agitator who has been linked to a Kremlin plot to 'sow discord' across America.
Jesse Nevel, 34, from St. Louis, Missouri, was charged in a federal probe last year over allegations he conspired with an FSB agent to spread Russian propaganda and influence US elections.
But with the charges still looming, the former mayoral candidate for St Petersburg, Florida, reportedly attended a 'March on DNC' conference in the windy city last month.
The revelations have sparked fears that the Kremlin could target the event as a means of destabilizing the Democratic party and ultimately sway the outcome of the 2024 presidential election.
Max Bergmann, of think tank the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS), told DailyMail.com that the DNC was a 'clear target for Russian interference efforts'.
'There's a long history of the Russians using groups on the left, who are "useful idiots", to amplify their own messages and divide America,' he added.
Those involved in the 'March on the DNC 2024' movement include many of the usual suspects, including far-left factions and pro-Palestine activists whose homes have been raided by the FBI as part of a probe into support for terrorist groups.

I do. We were told we were the bad ones and the Russians loved their children too! Oh how times have changed.
They already have Brandon Johnson as the mayor. Not sure how more chaotic Chicago could get.
Huh? Sounds like democommies are gonna cause trouble at their own CONvention. Well, the header does say ‘extremists’.
The deep-state constantly warns about secret influence groups, misinformation, and election interference - because its exactly the playbook they use elsewhere, both at home and abroad.
I was too young in ‘68 to remember the news showing that.
Was there strong police response and did it stop the protesting there?
It really sounds like the CIA’s favorite card.
So maybe this is a head’s up the CIA plans to ‘unleash chaos’ to justify the next moves in the election theft play.
I can’t remember where I saw it but there is talk among the Dems not to have a convention in Chicago but do the whole thing remotely.
The Russia card is like the race card - it can be applied to anything.
What does the ISA (International Surfing Association) have to do with it?
Here we go again...RUSSIA RUSSIA RUSSIA...
Whilst Adam Schiff runs for the US Senate...
Good question! I was 4 years old when I saw it on TV while vacationing with my parents in Canada. I remember my parents being very concerned about it, as they tried to explain to me what was going on and how dangerous it was for the poeple inside. I remember the busses very clearly, but saw the police action in newsreels since then. They put a major pounding on the protesters.
