the US has an interest in supporting dissident expat communities from rival regimes (eg the mke, a marxist cult of iranians). i wouldn’t be surprised if they received some amount of mysterious funding, maybe even in the form of shen yun ticket revenue.

I'm guessing you mean MEK, which is the mujahedin el khalq IIRC, but please, don't call them Marxist just because they may have professed Marxist beliefs decades ago. They've been a run of the mill personality cult for much longer than they've been Marxist, so it seems disingenuous to use that as their primary description.
