Like Father Like Son: Alexander Soros Donates $650K To Democratic Committees And Campaigns
PJ Media ^ | 2-19-2018 | Rick Moran

Posted on 02/19/2018 6:06:33 AM PST by blam

When Democrats talk about evil "Republican billionaires" like Sheldon Adelson and the dreaded Koch Brothers, it's always in apocalyptic terms. They are trying to "buy" elections and hide their influence with "dark money" schemes.

Somehow, Democrats never get around to mentioning their own billionaires and the massive amounts of money contributed to Democratic causes by the likes of Tom Steyer, Mark Cuban, and J.B. Pritzker, who is running for governor of Illinois.

And, of course, George Soros.

Soros's reach is international. He has a huge network of international do-gooder organizations that promote his pet causes. And he is a reliable, if sometimes shadowy, contributor to Democratic Party causes in the U.S.

But Soros's son Alexander is emerging as a major player in Democratic politics. According to the Federal Election Commission, Alexander contributed $650,000 to Democratic campaigns and various committees in 2017.

Washington Free Beacon:

Alex's generous contributions spanned across a number of liberal party committees and campaigns, including two donations totaling $203,400 to the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee's (DCCC) recount and building funds, while providing an additional $33,900 to the committee during the primary period.

Makes sense. If you’re Dr. Evil Jr., financing the Democrat agenda is the way to bring down the U.S.

The Republicans, to quote Douglas Adams, are mostly harmless.

“Its illegal for Russians to meddle in American politics but not the Soroses from Hungary.”

Alexander Soros was born in the US.

That's exactly the problem. Steyer, Pritzkers, Cuban, James Simon, Steven Spielberg, Waltons, Buffett, Bloomberg, etc, are going to be around after Soros goes.

And the big foundations funded by these people do far more anonymous long-lasting damage than self-promoting personalities.

Tax exemption for ALL foundations needs to end.

This isn’t rocket science. The math is easy

Attack Hillary or Obama = get criminal indictments
Attack Trump or any of the right wing = normalized activity

Contribute to groups that do either of the above, and receive the same results as above.

The message is clear. No only can Hillary (and Huma and everyone around her) can get away with actual crimes. She is protected. This is including the massive intentional spying on congress by Pakistani operatives, the use of clandestine email accounts to hide activity from oversight, the use of the previous to make deals with foreign interests in return for campaign donations, and generally just spy on everyone on your enemies list, a practice which goes back before ‘the FBI files’ and continued right up to getting a FISA on Trump.

Everyone else, not only doesn’t get away with real crimes, but they get criminalized for trying to stop the crimes.

Soros spending millions in organizations that splinter society and factionalize/radicalize americans... that’s not a crime.

The math = system is still rigged.

George Soros wants to destroy America to advance the one world government. Looks like his son is recruiting the Democrats to accomplish that.

He doesn’t have to “recruit” them. They are already there. He is merely giving them more money to advance their malignant goals.

No, that’s not actually true, but he may as well be. Same name but no apparent family relationship. Adam Schiff seems not to have a sister.
