Senator Tom Cotton (R-AR) recently took to his pen, sending an urgent letter to FCC Chairwoman Jessica Rosenworcel on October 10. He demanded clarity on why the commission expedited this deal with a Soros-backed nonprofit mere weeks before Election Day. How can we trust an agency that seems ready to bypass national security reviews for foreign-funded purchases?

Other Republicans like Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) and Representative Chip Roy (R-TX) have joined the chorus decrying this politically charged decision — which was allegedly made along party lines in a troubling 3-2 vote.

But let’s face it; nobody expects the FCC to reverse course here. As Soros extends his reach deeper into media just as we approach what promises to be a tight race in 2024, conservatives are understandably concerned about what this means for our political landscape.

“What you now have is a left-wing Looney Tune who has access to millions of people in every market in the United States of America,” said David D. Smith, executive chairman of Sinclair Broadcast Group. “That’s scary.”

Indeed it is! For too long, conservative voices have been marginalized or outright persecuted within mainstream media channels—something only amplified by moves like these from unaccountable billionaires wielding their financial power without remorse.

Yet there appears little unity among conservatives regarding how best to respond. Some propose that megadonors should mimic Soros’s aggressive investment strategies rather than relying solely on traditional methods that leave them vulnerable and unheard.

Scott Walter—the president of Capital Research Center—echoes sentiments reminiscent of late journalist Andrew Breitbart when he asked, “What is the art of the conservative billionaire?”

He further emphasizes, “Soros, by contrast, makes big investments like this huge radio play. If conservative donors don’t invest more, the damage to our country’s culture will only worsen.”

The reality remains stark; money talks but so does influence through diverse platforms—and trusting adversarial outlets isn’t viable for effectively disseminating conservative messages either.

David D. Smith, executive chairman of Sinclair Broadcast Group, said, “There are four places where you can have a voice in today’s marketplace: internet, radio, TV and newspaper.

“So the simple question is if I was standing in front of every billionaire in United States right now I would say ‘Do you want to have a voice put out your philosophical perspective?’”

“If the answer is yes, then OK here’s how do that. They have decide: Do they really want just sit their money put it nonprofit someplace? And then they lament fact Democrats control everything.”

For now at least many conservative benefactors still cling tightly onto hopes pinned upon Washington politicians fighting valiantly for their agenda—a misguided notion given how often these elected representatives seem all too willing to capitulate under liberal pressure instead of making principled stands against such encroachments as those brought forth by George Soros.

As disillusionment mounts among frustrated conservatives watching yet another election cycle unfold under unfavorable media circumstances, perhaps it’s time they look towards embracing winning plays rather than remaining content merely playing defense.

The major radio company Audacy Inc. fell into financial straits, but through a complex business deal Democratic mega donor and billionaire George Soros has gained control of the stations. Deals of this size require FCC approval, but in this case the FCC expedited the approval process.

FCC Commissioner Brendan Carr raised concerns about the deal at a Congressional hearing, telling lawmakers that “… the FCC is not following its normal process for reviewing a transaction.”

“We have established over a number of years one way in which you can get approval from the FCC when you have an excess of 25 percent foreign ownership, which this transaction does,” Carr said. ““It seems to me that the FCC is poised to create, for the first time, an entirely new shortcut.”

House Oversight Chair Rep. James Comer, R-Ky. and Rep. Nick Langworthy, R-N.Y., sent a letter to FCC Chair Jessica Rosenworcel Friday raising concerns about the deal.

“Despite the unprecedented nature of this action, the FCC majority has apparently decided to approve licenses on an accelerated timeframe for a company in which George Soros has a major ownership stake, and with stations in 40 media markets reaching ‘more than 165 million Americans,’” the letter said. “By all appearances, the FCC majority isn’t just expediting, but is bypassing an established process to do a favor for George Soros and facilitate his influence over hundreds of radio stations before the November election.”

Critics of the deal say it gives too much power to a heavily political, and liberal, billionaire just before the election.

“I have no idea why Soros would do this unless it was to manipulate the thinking of Americans and the information they listen to,” author and former member of the George W. Bush administration Mike Gonzalez told The Center Square.

“Conservative talk radio is huge, and there is no left wing talk radio because it’s just not interesting,” said Gonzalez, who is now at the Heritage Foundation. “Conservative talk radio is one of the few communications that conservatives have not a monopoly on but have a strong handle on, and he has bought stations that have Mark Levin and Sean Hannity and Dana Loesch and Glenn Beck.”

Critics also point out that Soros’ business partners in the deal include significant funding from sources overseas.

“The Audacy, Inc. deal, which will lead to Audacy, Inc. being partially ‘directly or indirectly controlled’ by foreign individuals or entities holding ‘more than one-fourth of the capital stock’ will require FCC approval to determine whether ‘the public interest will be served by the refusal or revocation of such license,’” the letter said. “In carrying out this statutory mandate under the Communications Act, FCC has years-long established processes and procedures for adjudicating broadcast licenses in such situations, most recently updated in 2016.”

Other wealthy media owners have faced scrutiny for potential abuse of their ownership power, such as billionaire Jeff Bezos when he purchased the Washington Post. However, Soros’ influence over so many radio stations may have even more influence over the country than one of the major papers, which Americans usually see as having a certain political leaning.

Soros is one of the most strategic and prolific funders of liberal organizations in the U.S.

“I don’t know why else he would plunk a pile of money this size unless it was to try to have influence over the thinking of Americans,” Gonzalez continued, adding that “this guy is committed to left-wing causes.”

Democracy PAC, the primary conduit through which the Soros family shuffles its wealth into electoral politics, spent roughly $40 million after the WSJ reported that George Soros had passed the reins on to his son, campaign finance records show. The PAC’s spending under Alex Soros signals somewhat of a departure from how his father operated it, with less focus on criminal justice and a greater emphasis on helping Democrats keep the White House.

“I’m more political,” the younger Soros told the WSJ in 2023, comparing himself to his father. “As much as I would love to get money out of politics, as long as the other side is doing it, we will have to do it, too.”

Outside groups aligned with the Democratic Party spent over $1.7 billion during the 2020 election, whereas conservative groups spent considerably less, totaling around $1.5 billion, according to OpenSecrets’ analysis of campaign finance records.

Democracy PAC has sent $10 million to Future Forward PAC since the WSJ reported that Alex Soros had taken over, per Federal Election Commission (FEC) records. President Joe Biden’s campaign in 2020 anointed Future Forward to serve as the primary super PAC to boost the Democratic presidential effort, and the operation has since pivoted to support Vice President Kamala Harris after Biden dropped out, according to multiple outlets.

George Soros appeared less interested in using Democracy PAC to play presidential politics than his son, having given Future Forward PAC just $1 million during the same period in the 2020 election, according to FEC filings. The Soros patriarch did, however, personally donate roughly $500,000 to boost Biden during 2020, which is still less than the $721,000 Alex donated that year, campaign finance records show.

Democracy PAC is not the only way the Soros family injects money into politics. Open Society Foundations, the philanthropic network founded by George Soros and now headed by his son, has poured tens of millions of dollars into left-of-center activist groups that have worked to prevent former President Donald Trump from winning elections.

The Soros heir also seems less interested in criminal justice than his father, having only distributed about $1.1 million to groups focused on the issue through Democracy PAC since June 2023, FEC records show. His father, meanwhile, had already sent out over $5.6 million in disbursements through Democracy PAC to criminal justice-focused groups during the same period in the 2020 election cycle.

Alex Soros even moved $60 million out of the Fund for Policy Reform, a criminal justice nonprofit within the Open Society Foundations network, and into Democracy PAC back in January, according to campaign finance records.

In addition to using Democracy PAC to bankroll the implementation of their criminal justice agenda, the Soros family has also contributed directly to some causes in the area. These payments appear to be drying up under Alex Soros as well, however, as no one in the Soros family has made direct payments to California Justice & Public Safety PAC, the committee tasked with electing what George Soros dubbed “reform prosecutors” in the state, this election cycle.

The younger Soros and his father show some similarities in how they have led Democracy PAC, disclosures show. In both 2020 and 2024, the PAC donated millions to the Senate Majority PAC and House Majority PAC, committees tasked with electing Democratic candidates to the upper and lower chamber, respectively.

Alex Soros has directed $9.5 million to the pair of committees since June 2023 whereas Democracy PAC, under his father, gave $10 million to the PACs during the same period in 2020, per FEC records.

Under both the elder Soros and his son, Democracy PAC made considerable donations to pro-abortion committees, such as those affiliated with Planned Parenthood, as well as PACs aimed at increasing the presence of women in elected office, according to campaign finance records. The younger Soros explicitly told the WSJ he would continue his father’s legacy of pushing feminism and working to expand access to abortion.

Though Democracy PAC has already spent tens of millions of dollars under the Soros scion, a total of $125 million has been set aside for the committee, according to the WSJ.

The younger Soros, who is cementing his place as a Democratic megadonor, has enjoyed generous access to the White House under the Biden-Harris administration, visiting frequently, according to Fox News Digital’s analysis of visitor logs. Alex Soros has met with high-ranking White House officials like Amanda Sloat, the National Security Council’s senior director for Europe, and Jon Finer, who serves as the principal deputy national security adviser.

A Soros family spokesperson did not respond to the Daily Caller News Foundation’s request for comment.

Harris’ close advisers have settled on a strategy of highlighting the vice president’s career as a district attorney and attorney general in California, according to CNN. Despite the Harris campaign’s plans, many of the donors backing her have opposed efforts to empower law enforcement and supported organizations that advocate for defunding the police.

“Not only does Kamala need to defend her support of Joe Biden’s failed agenda over the past four years, she also needs to answer for her own terrible weak-on-crime record in California,” Trump campaign national press secretary Karoline Leavitt told the Daily Caller News Foundation. “A vote for Kamala is a vote to allow illegal immigrants from all over the world to invade our country, a vote to defund the police, abolish ICE and bail violent criminals out of jail.”

The Soros Connection

George Soros, the self-admitted architect of a plan to overhaul America’s criminal justice system by installing prosecutors with a more lenient view on crime, and his son Alex both endorsed Harris for president shortly after President Joe Biden dropped out of the race on July 21, The Wall Street Journal reported. In addition to electing so-called reform prosecutors, the Soros philanthropic network has also pumped millions into anti-police groups, including some that have called for reduced spending on law enforcement.

Open Society Foundations, which George Soros founded and Alex Soros took over in 2023, donated tens of millions to anti-police groups in 2021, including Black Lives Matter-aligned organizations that call for defunding the police and the New Venture Fund for the Community Resource Hub for Safety and Accountability, which publishes materials on both defunding and abolishing the police, Fox News Digital reported. Soros also supported campaigns in Minneapolis to abolish its police department following the death of George Floyd.

Democracy PAC and Democracy PAC II, political action committees funded and controlled by the Soros family, have spent tens of millions this election cycle to help get Democrats elected and gave millions to Democratic super PACs that worked to get Biden elected in 2020, Federal Election Commission records show.

Many of the prosecutors supported by Soros have come under fire from people living in their jurisdiction for their approaches to criminal justice.

Former San Francisco District Attorney Chesa Boudin, who received support from Soros-aligned groups, was recalled in 2022 after city residents accused him of not prosecuting crimes like burglary, car thefts and murder, as well as for releasing repeat offenders who went on to commit additional crimes. Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascon, who Soros spent millions supporting through his California Justice & Public Safety PAC, faces a tough reelection bid amid criticisms of his handling of crime, which included opting not to prosecute crimes like trespassing, resisting arrest, making criminal threats, drug possession or loitering to commit prostitution.

Netflix, Nonprofits And Criminal Justice Reform

Nonprofit head Quinn Delaney and Netflix co-founder Reed Hastings, major Democratic donors who announced their support for Harris shortly after President Joe Biden ended his reelection effort, joined Soros in working to elect Gascon and Boudin.

Delaney, alongside three other California-based donors, poured millions into electing the two prosecutors in 2020, Politico reported. Hastings and his wife Patty Quillin donated $1.75 million to support Gascon, according to Deadline.

Hastings donated $7 million to a pro-Harris PAC, the largest donation he has ever given a candidate, Business Insider reported. Delaney, meanwhile, pumped $1 million into a pro-Harris super PAC that she ran in 2020 and has been identified as a “key backer” of Harris post-dropout by the New York Times.

Delaney and Hastings have also thrown their wealth behind opposing ballot measures in California that would have empowered law enforcement.

Hastings and his wife in 2020 spent $2 million opposing California Proposition 20, which would have increased penalties for property crimes, as well as $1 million in support of a ballot measure that would have abolished cash bail, according to Forbes. Delaney, on the other hand, in 2024, donated to a committee opposing a California ballot measure that would have increased penalties for retail theft, Politico reported.

Delaney heads the Akonadi Foundation, an Oakland-based nonprofit that focuses on “ending the criminalization of people of color,” according to its website. Akonadi runs a program called “All In For Oakland” which works to remove police officers from schools and close juvenile prisons and donates funds to Black Lives Matter-affiliated organizations.

While Harris’ campaign is reportedly prepared to present her as the law and order candidate, the vice president presented as a reformist during her time in the Senate. Harris told The View in 2020 that the defund the police movement was about “reimagining how we do public safety in America” adding that “we have confused the idea that to achieve safety you put more cops on the street instead of understanding to achieve safe and healthy communities, you put more resources into the public education system of those communities, into affordable housing, into home ownership, into access to capital for small businesses, access to health care regardless of how much money people have,” the Sacramento Bee reported.

Harris, in a 2020 radio interview, praised the defund the police movement, saying that the “whole movement is about rightly saying, we need to take a look at these budgets and figure out whether it reflects the right priorities,” according to CNN. She also praised Los Angeles’ move to cut their police department’s budget by $150 million during an interview a day prior.

Golden State Cash

Karla Jurvetson, another wealthy Californian whom the NYT reported is throwing her support behind Harris, was labeled by a Republican operative as a “major funder of the squad and just about every politician on Capitol Hill who wants to defund the police” due to her political contributions to left-wing members of Congress, according to the New York Post. She is also a donor to Color of Change PAC, a committee that works to defund police departments, the Washington Free Beacon reported.

Jurvetson was the twenty-fourth largest individual Democratic donor during the 2020 election cycle, giving a considerable sum to Harris at the time, according to Influence Watch.

Andrea Dew-Steele, yet another Californian Democratic donor, has been hard at work laying the foundation for Harris’ campaign since before Biden even dropped out, the NYT reported. Dew-Steele, who is a personal friend of Harris and served on her national finance committee in 2020, has spent the past few weeks funneling donors to Democrat-aligned groups in preparation for a possible Harris campaign.

“We were trying to make sure that we were ready for this moment,” she told the NYT. “I was just trying to prepare the ground.”

Dew-Steele is the founder of Emerge America, an organization dedicated to electing women to office at all levels of government. The group has backed several liberal prosecutors, including Contra Costa County District Attorney Diana Becton and former Suffolk District Attorney Rachael Rollins, both of whom received backing from Soros’ network, as well as San Diego City Attorney Mara Elliott, who declined to prosecute many of those who were arrested in her city during the 2020 George Floyd riots, the San Diego Union-Tribune reported.

“The prosecutor exercises the greatest discretion and power in the system. It is so important,” Dew-Steele told Politico in 2016, speaking about Soros’ strategy of funding left-wing prosecutors. “There’s been a confluence of events in the past couple years and all of the sudden, the progressive community is waking up to this.”

Many of the prosecutors funded by Soros decline to prosecute what they deem to be low-level crimes like drug possession, vandalism or trespassing.

“I applaud Emerge America for working to get more women in law enforcement positions,” then-California Attorney General Harris said in 2015, when the group first launched, according to MSNBC. “Having served for eight years as San Francisco’s District Attorney and now as the Attorney General of California, I can tell you that women’s voices are desperately needed in the criminal justice system.”

Susie Tompkins Buell, another prominent donor whom the NYT reported has come out in support of Harris, and Delaney both serve on Emerge America’s advisory board.

The vice president’s proximity to the defund the police movement persists in her staffing decisions with Brian Fallon, the Harris campaign’s spokesperson, having tweeted “defund the police” on June 3, 2020.

Harris has spent much of her career threading the needle between appeasing leftists and not making an enemy of law enforcement, according to The Wall Street Journal. In 2020, for instance, Harris distanced herself from her past as a prosecutor at the urging of her sister, CNN reported.

The Harris campaign did not respond to the Daily Caller News Foundation’s request for comment. Jurvetson could not be reached for comment. None of the other donors named above responded to requests for comment.

One example that has been back in the spotlight was a potential veiled threat made by Alex Soros earlier this year. Alex, who is the son of billionaire globalist George Soros, tweeted a photo of a bullet hole alongside a hand with $47 in cash. Given that Trump will be the 47th president if he wins in November, many interpreted it at the time as a threat against him.

The tweet was sharing an article in the leftist publication The Atlantic featuring the photo with the tagline: “Last year, the crime and inflation crises largely evaporated. So did the leading theories about what had caused them.”

The tweet was instantly met with replies noting that it came across as a death threat against the former president.

The Gateway Pundit published an article about the threat at the time, explaining how Soros and other global elites appeared to be in panic mode as Trump was already leading the polls and threatening their power.

One-sided “fact check” tried to dismiss threat

This prompted USA Today to publish one of its sketchy “fact checks,” going out of its way to try to explain why this was not the threat that so many people interpreted it to be. They claim, for example, that the image of the bullet hole in the glass and the hand holding the money was actually “created from two stock photographs.” That may be technically true, but that does not rule out the possibility that the two images were intentionally chosen for their symbolism.

The Atlantic claims it was not trying to send a message and that it’s all just a coincidence, with spokesperson Anna Bross claiming the allegations it was a threat were “absurd and irresponsible” and Soros insisting he wasn’t making a threat by sharing it.

A spokesperson for the Open Society Foundations, which is chaired by Alex Soros and is the biggest donor to Democrat politicians, stated: “Alex was sharing the positive news that crime and inflation rates are trending downward – developments that should be celebrated by all Americans. Nothing more, nothing less. It’s amazing the lengths to which some people will try to distract and divide the country in the face of objectively good news.”

Hilariously, it was this spokesperson, along with The Atlantic’s spokesperson and the X post by Alex Soros that USA Today cited for its fact check, as if they were somehow neutral sources who could provide an unbiased take on the situation.

Soros called Trump an “existential threat”

Ahead of Joe Biden’s big solo press conference after his embarrassing debate performance in which he further underscored just how far gone his mind is, Soros warned Democrats that they need to unite around Biden in a post on X.

“Let’s stop running against ourselves and run against the existential threat that is Donald Trump! Biden-Harris 2024!” his post read.

Alex has reportedly visited the White House at least 20 times since Biden took office and recently announced his engagement to Huma Abedin, a former aide to Hillary Clinton. Critics believe that he will be “even more radically leftist than his father,” which is a deeply frightening prospect – and one that makes it seem even more likely that he’d want Trump out of the White House at all costs.

California Justice & Public Safety PAC spent well over $5 million between 2018 and 2020 to elect Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascon and Alameda County District Attorney Pamela Price, campaign finance records show. With these prosecutors now facing tough elections that could boot them from office, however, Soros’ PAC has ceased its spending with $0 in expenditures recorded from 2023 to the present.

Soros provided the majority of California Justice & Public Safety PAC’s funding, pouring over $6 million into the committee between 2018 and 2021, according to campaign finance records. Gascon was the most recent beneficiary of the Soros-backed PAC, receiving over $4.5 million in support for his 2020 campaign.

Gascon, who won his election with 53.7% of the vote, announced shortly after that his office would no longer be prosecuting select crimes, including trespassing, disturbing the peace, driving without a license or a suspended license, making criminal threats, drug possession, drinking in public, loitering to commit prostitution and resisting arrest, according to a ABC 7, a local affiliate. Crime soared during Gascon’s first year in office, with homicide increasing by 11.8% in areas patrolled by the Los Angeles Police Department between 2020 and 2021, according to CBS News.

Gascon faced two recall attempts during his first term. Both the 2021 and 2022 efforts failed after falling short in terms of valid signatures.

The DA survived an open primary in May, during which he was up against 11 challengers, and garnered 25.2% of the vote, The New York Times reported.

Gascon is set to run against former federal prosecutor Nathan Hochman in the November general election.

Gascon initially ran on a platform of reducing the number of people in jail by eliminating cash bail, increasing oversight on police officers and protecting people from immigration authorities, according to an archived copy of Gascon’s website.

Price, who received roughly $700,000 in support from the California Justice & Public Safety PAC for her unsuccessful 2018 campaign, is also traversing rough waters as she faces a strong recall effort and mounting controversies.

She ultimately won her 2022 election and took office on January 2, 2023. Violent crime increased by 21% in Oakland, the largest city in Alameda County, during Price’s first ten months in office, according to police data.

Local activists seeking to remove Price from office collected enough signatures to hold a recall election, according to the Alameda County Registrar of Voters. Organizers claim Price’s policies contributed to rising crime in the county by prioritizing the interests of offenders over victims.

Alameda County Prosecutors’ Association, a union representing some of her employees, voted “overwhelmingly” to support the recall effort. The association claimed that Price had created “hostile work conditions” for employees of the district attorney’s office.

Patti Lee, formerly a spokesperson for the Alameda County district attorney’s office, sued Price in June, alleging that she had made racist remarks towards Asians and that she had chosen “to hide, delete and change” public records to avoid complying with lawful requests.

Price ran for office on a platform of reducing the number of people in prison, bringing down sentences for offenders under the age of 25 and cracking down on purported police abuses, according to the San Francisco Chronicle.

Gascon and Price collectively preside over more than 11 million people across their jurisdictions, according to Census Bureau estimates.

Whitney Tymas, the director of California Justice & Public Safety PAC, did not respond to the Daily Caller News Foundation’s request for comment.

According to a New York Post article, Soros pumped $400 million into the radio outlet Audacy in February. The said network reaches 165 million monthly listeners and includes a handful of conservative shows from hosts including Sean Hannity, Dana Loesch, Mark Levin, Glenn Beck and Erick Erickson.

A source with knowledge of the deal told the news outlet that the idea that “Soros is buying hundreds of local radio stations right before a national election and will keep broadcasting Sean Hannity and other conservative talk radio hosts on Audacy is not credible.”

Soros Fund Management needs help from the FCC to take control of the network as the money funneled into buying the bankrupt network comes from abroad. Under existing FCC rules, foreign company ownership of radio stations in the United States is not allowed to exceed 25 percent, but a filing acquired by the Post included a request from Soros asking the commission to make an exception.

In response, FCC Commissioner Brendan Carr said that the FCC should not create a special Soros shortcut. He added that when it comes to a broadcast station acquisition of this size and magnitude, the FCC needs to run its full and normal review process.

“The FCC should not be skipping steps or waiving required agency processes,” Carr pointed out.

An alarm about this was first set off by Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX) in April. He said that this transaction, which affects radio stations that reach millions of listeners across the U.S., should, at minimum, be subject to rigorous FCC oversight to ensure U.S. radio stations are not subject to undue influence.

“Audacy owns more than 220 local radio stations in over 40 markets and is the second-largest American radio group behind iHeart,” a press release from Roy’s office read. “The Soros group says that skipping the foreign ownership review at this time will enable the FCC to expedite its approval of the Soros applications and thus allow them to more quickly realize their ownership interests in, and take the reins at, these hundreds of local radio stations across the country.” (Related: Texas congressman slams George Soros over his acquisition of radio giant Audacy.)

He had earlier written the Soros group would usually petition to get its foreign funding sources vetted by the FCC first, but that they are trying to waive that process and put it off “until sometime down the road, indicating that those foreign stakeholders will be given ‘special warrants’ in the meantime.”

Meanwhile, critics believe the FCC’s influence is likely to be muted once the billionaire takes over and imposes his agenda, as he did with other media acquisitions.

Sources told the Post that Soros’ stake is equal to about 40 percent of the company’s senior debt, a massive chunk which, although not a majority, could yield effective control of the media giant when it emerges from bankruptcy.

Media watchdog: Soros spent $80 million to “silence” Americans

The timing of the deal, just months before the 2024 presidential election, has raised eyebrows all across the United States. One insider said he felt it possible Soros was buying the stake to exert influence on public opinion in leading up to the election. “This is scary,” the source said at the time.

In fact, a new report by the media watchdog Media Research Center (MRC) indicated that Soros gave over $80 million to affiliated groups calling for “censorship” ahead of November’s critical election.

“One of the wealthiest men in the world is using his vast wealth and power to silence regular Americans ahead of the 2024 election. At a time when defending free speech is key, leftists are trying their best to shut down the voices of half of America, especially those who disagree with the radical agenda promoted by Biden, Soros and most Big Tech executives,” MRC Free Speech America Vice President Dan Schneider told Fox News Digital.

Last month, Free Press boasted about a letter urging executives at Discord, Google, Instagram, Meta, Pinterest, Reddit, Rumble, Snap, TikTok, Twitch, Twitter and YouTube to keep online platforms “safe and healthy” in 2024 through six specific “interventions.” The letter was signed by 200 civil society organizations, researchers and journalists. However, MRC found that “at least 45 of the signatories have had their coffers packed with Soros cash to the tune of a whopping $80,757,329 between 2016 and 2022 alone.”

“It appears its true design is to pressure Big Tech companies to silence speech the left despises as 60 countries across the globe gear up for their elections in 2024,” MRC associate editor Joseph Vazquez wrote. “But even more disturbing was the letter’s implication that its primary target is interfering in the 2024 U.S. election. This development is directly in line with Soros’ brand, who has dedicated millions of his ungodly fortune to groups looking to interfere in elections by stifling online speech.”

Most House Democrats have been reticent on the antisemitic protests and encampments roiling college graduations this month, while a handful have vocally defended or even celebrated the student protests as displays of protected free speech.

Rep. Ilhan Omar, a Minnesota Democrat, said she was proud of her daughter, a Barnard College student who was suspended for participating in illegal protests and who was among 100 people arrested after demonstrations at Columbia University in April. Throughout the months of campus protests, members of the progressive “squad,” Reps. Rashida Tlaib of Michigan and Cori Bush of Missouri have applauded “courageous” anti-Israel student protestors while condemning efforts by university administrators and police to dismantle the encampments.

A RealClearPolitics analysis of Federal Election Commission data shows one possible reason most Democrats are trying to avoid the campus fray: House Democrats’ reelection campaigns have accepted $6.5 million from three major political families, which have helped bankroll several student groups participating in the protests. The family members cut most of those checks over the last two years, although some of the donations to longstanding House members came over the last decade.

The names are well-known among Democratic funding circles: Soros, Rockefeller, and Pritzker. Yet before the anti-Jewish protests swept college campuses over the last few months, their financial ties to the student groups were not widely known. Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker, a member of the same wealthy Pritzker family, is not among the donors.

Several investigative media reports over the last month have uncovered the extensive financial ties between these families and student groups involved in organizing anti-Israel protests and activism across the country predating the Oct. 7 Hamas terrorist attacks on Israel and in its aftermath and during Israel’s war against Hamas in Gaza.

The donors to student groups include George Soros, a billionaire philanthropist and Democratic campaign contributor who helms the Open Society Foundation and his family members; the Pritzkers, the owners of Hyatt Hotels Corporation; and members of the famed Rockefeller family, including relatives of the wealthy American Banker and philanthropist David Rockefeller. The donations have either gone directly to student groups involved in campus demonstrations or to umbrella foundations and organizations, which have, in turn, channeled the funds to the protestors.

The House Democratic Congressional Committee and the House Majority PAC, which was founded by former Speaker Nancy Pelosi and is directly affiliated with the House Democratic leadership, collected most of those funds, nearly $5.5 million by those two Democratic campaign entities alone, FEC records show.

Judge Lloyd U. Nolan, Jr, from Washington DC just released a young adult accused of firing over two dozen rounds into a vehicle on a busy street. According to Nolan, Amonte Moody does not pose a public threat.

Video shows that Moody is the last person you want on the streets of DC or any other street of America. But Judge Nolan, who has been openly “woke” and involved with a Soros “justice” organization, thinks otherwise.

We have to understand something very clearly. It’s not that Nolan is stupid. It’s not that he’s just super-forgiving and willing to give Moody the benefit of the doubt. These Soros puppets WANT more violence. They WANT fewer repercussions for violent criminals. They WANT the streets to be even less safe than they already are.

In the chaos their ideology can rise. Through turmoil they can convince people they need government to protect them without realizing it’s the government from which they need protection.

To those who think the Soros influence over our justice system is relegated to District Attorneys, here's something to chew on.

Judge Lloyd U. Nolan, Jr, from Washington DC just released a young adult accused of firing over two dozen rounds into a vehicle on a busy street.…

Pray for America. Here is the story generated from corporate media reports…

A Washington, D.C., judge named Lloyd U. Nolan, Jr., who serves as a magistrate judge on the Superior Court of the District of Columbia, has come under scrutiny for releasing on bail an 18-year-old named Amonte Moody. Moody is accused of firing over two dozen rounds at a car full of people along a busy street. Nolan’s decision to release Moody on house arrest has sparked controversy, with prosecutors requesting an emergency hearing to potentially reverse the decision.

Nolan’s online presence reveals a history of progressive activism, including a post in which he boasts about being “woke,” a post supporting Black Lives Matter, and a post indicating he donated to a fundraiser supporting a professor with ties to George Soros’ Open Society Foundation. This professor, Jonathan Rapping, founded an organization called Gideon’s Promise, which focuses on training and supporting public defenders in the Southeastern United States.

Conservatives have criticized Nolan’s decision, citing concerns about the influence of political and social beliefs on judicial decisions. They argue that the release was inappropriate given the nature of the alleged crime and the evidence against Moody. Prosecutors argued that Moody’s release is a sign of a larger issue with the criminal justice system, which they believe has been influenced by progressive activism and the financial support of individuals like George Soros.

Despite the charges against Moody, which include endangerment with a firearm, possession of a weapon, and assault, Nolan concluded that Moody was not a threat to the community. Moody was released on house arrest with a GPS monitor on May 3.

Prosecutors argued that the release was inappropriate given the nature of the alleged crime and the evidence against Moody. They cited video evidence and witness statements as proof of Moody’s guilt. However, a spokesperson for the D.C. court system defended Nolan’s decision, stating that all defendants have a presumption of innocence and that the judge had considered Moody’s lack of prior encounters with law enforcement, as well as the educational support and family and community resources available to him.

In light of Nolan’s controversial decision, conservatives argue for a more balanced approach to criminal justice that prioritizes public safety and the rights of victims, while still ensuring a fair trial for the accused.
