Regarding that the MKO/MEK/PMOI have bought a large number of supporters among US politicians particularly the republican figures, it might be natural to be concerned about the next US government’s warmongering policies but how much the extent of such influence would be –if there is any influence.
Mr. Giuliani for instance, he was paid to deliver speeches in 2011 and 2012 defending a cultlike Iranian exile group/MKO/MEK/PMOI that was on the State Department’s list of terrorist organizations. In the long list of ridiculous things Mr. Giuliani has said, his remarks about President Obama in February 2015, when the presidential campaign was gearing up, were particularly disgraceful …
In 2011, an exiled Iranian political party called the Mujahedin e-Khalq, known as the MEK/MKO/PMOI, paid Giuliani to give a speech in Washington calling on the State Department to remove the group from its list of terrorist organizations.

Bolton has attended rallies in support of Mujahedeen-e-Khalq (MEK)/MKO/PMOI, an exiled Iranian dissident group that the U.S. classified as a terrorist organization until 2012.

Already some notorious uber-hawks, such as New Gingrich, John Bolton, and Rudy Giuliani, are slated for top jobs in the Trump administration, including the crucial secretary-of-state job. All three have deep ties with the Iranian dissident cult MEK/MKO/PMOI, on the US terror list until 2012, ….
Throughout the first term of the Obama administration, Iranian American organizations with extensive links to the MEK/MKO/PMOI paid prominent U.S. national security officials to speak on behalf of the group. They also contributed heavily to the campaign coffers of lawmakers on both sides of the aisle. The payments ran through….
The MEK/MKO/PMOI is known for paying generous sums to former officials who speak at their events. Lee Hamilton, a former chairman of the House Foreign Relations Committee who headed the Woodrow Wilson Center for 12 years, told InterPress Service that he was paid “a substantial amount” to appear on an MEK panel
Lobbying for MEK/MKO/PMOI terrorists alongside Bolton was former New York mayor Rudy Giuliani and Newt Gingrich. They and other fixtures of American Neo-Conservatism backed MEK along with the Royal Saudi Family, according to the US State Department’s own Voice of America (VOA) media platform.
