Soros added that the donation to the super PAC is a"long-term investment," intended to support political work beyond this year. Alexander Soros, George Soros' son, will serve as the PAC's president. In his own statement, Alexander Soros cited the Capitol insurrection on Jan. 6, 2021, and"ongoing efforts to discredit and undermine our electoral process, reveal the magnitude of the threat to our democracy," adding that this"is a generational threat that cannot be addressed in just one or two election cycles.

ebruenig funny what ukraine will do for you ... innit?

ebruenig everything 'they' have been saying is true ... except ... where's my not-so-dark money ... ?

ebruenig 'Now all will hear our message opposing the influence of money and billionaires in the political process!'

That’s normal

Soros also funds Antifa.

George Soros wants to create more gullible and naive puppets under his power. Can he teach and train them into a brilliant, wise, effective and best leader who hate bribes and who’s dedicated to serve the nation? We don’t need another rival president who is invisible to people

Yay

This should not be legal. This man is dangerous to our country. Should be considered a criminal. The prosecutors he helped to elect are radical. He’s totally responsible for the criminals being released & back on the streets & committing more crimes. He’s disgusting!!!!

JupiterDi1112 What if George Soros is ControlledOpposition for the Kochs? 🤔 That would explain a lot, actually.

INFLATION, COVID, UKRAINE - BIDEN FAILED

The US is not a democracy

Koch funds sedition.

Good.

Somehow, I find this reassuring. May the world become safer and saner thereby.

JonLemire Excellent. And we little people can help too by donating to the Secretary of State elections in the states Trump disputed. Just a few $$ will help. Got to stop them from over turning elections in 2022 and 2024

Not impressed. Michael Bloomberg tried to buy himself and Democrats victories in Texas and Florida and that didn't work at all.

Incredible they would rather do this than simply give Americans the policies they all support. US democracy is hopelessly lost to big money

Soulless human

Good
