The French did support the Americans some what in the war, however, only on a colonial point of view, with 13,500 French colonists joining the American Ranks and vast numbers of weapons and supplies being given to the miltia. French and British colonies were at war but not France and Britain themselves as the British had all but destroyed the French Fleet in the Seven Year War, the only thing that could stop the British from invading France itself would be a fleet, and since there wasn't a fleet that could stand up to the British Navy anymore a European War would have been foolish.
Though the US did not exist at the time of the French Revolution and thus could not have supported it, the French Revolution and the American Revolution happened only a few years apart and were closely linked in their democratic ideology.

The main group within Russia that fought against the Bolsheviks however was the Tsarists, they were supported by the Right SRs and the Mensheviks. They were all soon supported militarily by over a dozen other countries like the US, UK and France. After the Left SRs left them, the Bolsheviks were left by themselves.
