Adam Schiff says it's 'no accident' Trump, GOP target Soros: 'Whole modus operandi is to divide us'
washingtontimes.com ^ | 10/28/18 | Tom Howell Jr

Rep. Adam Schiff of California on Sunday said President Trump preaches unity in the wake of the tragedy but flirts with danger every morning by stoking divisions on Twitter and mocking George Soros, a prominent Jewish donor for Democrats and target of political attacks from the GOP.

“Honestly, I think this president’s whole modus operandi is to divide us,” Mr. Schiff, a Democrat, told CNN’s State of the Union, one day after a gunman killed 11 people at a Pittsburgh synagogue while making anti-Semitic comments.

Mr. Schiff said the American people have a “collective responsibility” to reel in hatred, yet “no one sets the the tone more than the president of the United States.”

There’s a reason Soros was the first to receive a “bomb”, all part of the plan. As if the guy down in FLA would have any idea what Soros’s address is. Now MSM is saying if you criticize the evil prick you’re being anti Semetic .

Born in 1930. From Investopedia:

Soros was 13 years old when the Nazi army rolled in....The Soros family went into hiding, with George pretending to be the godson of an employee of the Hungarian Ministry of Agriculture. And though only a teenager, Soros worked with his father to create thousands of fake documents for people trying to flee the Nazis. In later interviews, Soros called it his father’s finest hour, recalling his father’s generosity: providing free documents for people he knew were in immediate danger of deportation to the death camps, asking payment to cover his expenses only when necessary, but also demanding from the wealthy as much money as they could afford to pay.

Rep. Adam Schiff’s Ties To Soros Groups

TOPICS:Adam SchiffDonald TrumpGeorge SorosMoveOn.orgOpen Society FoundationRussia Investigation

POSTED BY: STAFF WRITER
Breitbart- Rep. Adam Schiff, the ranking Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee, was previously financially aided by the George Soros-financed MoveOn.org to win his Congressional seat.
Schiff was also awarded the Toll Fellowship, which is sponsored by the Council of State Governments, a nonprofit that monitors federal government activities and is heavily financed by Soros’s Open Society Foundations.

The Open Society and Soros-funded groups have additionally supported a number of Schiff’s legislative efforts.

Schiff has been helping to lead the Democrats’ unsubstantiated charges of alleged collusion between President Donald Trump and Moscow.

Last month, Schiff delivered the opening statements at a Congressional hearing where he laid out the case for alleged Russian meddling in the 2016 presidential election. This reporter previously documented serious problems with Schiff’s charges, which include wild conspiracy theories and heavy reliance on a questionable source.

In largely forgotten history, Schiff’s 2000 Congressional campaign against Republican incumbent Jim Rogan was openly aided by MoveOn.org.

On January 1, 2000, the Wall Street Journal reported on the radical group’s fundraising efforts for Schiff. The Congressional seat was particularly important since Rogan had gained fame after he was selected to be one of thirteen House Managers in the 1998 impeachment case of Bill Clinton. Rogan was supportive of Clinton’s impeachment and became a hero in the Republican Party.

The Journal reported:

If MoveOn were to achieve its ambitious goals, it just might have a big impact on this year’s struggle to control Congress, especially the House. Republicans hold only a slim five-vote majority there, and the outcome will “likely be determined in no more than three dozen congressional districts,” says Thomas Mann, director of governmental studies at the Brookings Institution, a Washington think tank.

And of course, most congressional impeachment proponents were Republicans. One of the most prominent among them, House impeachment manager James Rogan of California, faces a challenge this year from Democratic State Senator Adam Schiff, for whom MoveOn to date has raised $106,000, Mr. Boyd says.

CNN reported on the MoveOn.org money for Schiff’s 2000 campaign: “By 2000, MoveOn.org was raising $2 million for Democratic candidates, including more than $100,000 to help California’s Adam Schiff beat Congressman James Rogan, one of the House managers during Clinton’s impeachment trial.”

MoveOn.org also sponsored a January 2010 rally in favor of health care reform outside Schiff’s office in Pasadena, California.

Schiff’s 2000 campaign bio, meanwhile, relates that he was “awarded the prestigious Toll Fellowship, sponsored by The Council of State Governments.”

Schiff needs to look in a mirror, but that is an ugly slight.

I don't deny Soros's other work to undermine our freedoms. This is what that article writes about his early history:

2. Soros comes from an anti-Semitic Jewish family and was a Nazi collaborator.
"My mother was quite anti-Semitic, and ashamed of being Jewish," Soros said in an interview with CBS' 60 Minutes. "Given the culture in which one lived, being Jewish was a clear-cut stigma, disadvantage, a handicap-and, therefore, there was always the desire to transcend it, to escape it."

Soros later said in the interview that he did not feel any remorse "about confiscating property from Jews as a teenager."

"I don’t deny the Jews their right to a national existence–but I don’t want to be part of it," Soros said.

Not much to go on there. The online history of him helping his father save Jews while taking money from "wealthy" Jews might be a whitewash or euphemism for all I know. All I know is there isn't much evidence either way in what I have seen.
