George Soros' Son Meets With Top Democrats After Taking Over George Soros' "Charity" Organizations

When George Soros' son Alex took over the family business of running color revolutions in America, he immediately met with top Democrats to scheme and conspire.


Alex Soros, son of billionaire financier George Soros, huddled with high-ranking Democrats shortly after taking the reins of the powerful Open Society Foundations (OSF), continuing his long-running trend of privately meeting with influential politicians and publicly posting the encounters.

The meeting appears to be his first with federal lawmakers since he's taken control of his father's robust multibillion-dollar nonprofit network that injects vast sums into left-wing endeavors.

On June 11, OSF announced Alex would take over the network after the elder Soros did not want to hand it to any of his children. George, however, ultimately said, "He's earned it."

Days after the announcement, Alex hosted a New York event featuring House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries and other top Empire State Democrats, including Reps. Jerry Nadler and Gregory Meeks, according to an Instagram post.

Nadler looks like a toad. A fat, ugly toad. It amazes me that people who are that ugly and repulsive can succeed in politics. No, you don't have to be beautiful. But it seems given all the gladhanding and asskissing and begging for money and favors, someone who is so ugly his or her reflection would break a mirror would be at a distinct disadvantage.

Of course, and it should surprise nobody.

If your dad runs a business of manufacturing tires and you take over that business after a long period of tutelage at his knee, you'll go talk to your customers. You'll want to reassure your customers that the company is in good hands and that the level of service and product quality to which they've become accustomed will continue as expected. You'll also want to inform key customers about your company's roadmap and plans for the future.

This is no different. The business is evil and the both the business and the customer are demons, but at it's root it makes perfect sense and should be expected.

The point of working for a century to gain a lead pipe cinch on every single institution in society is to prevent that from happening to any constituent ruling class faction.

People needed to be thinking up those sorts of things in the 50s, before these kingdoms could really rise in the first place. In 2023, it's far, far too late.

The upshot is, they're all totally insane and barely competent, so they'll fuck themselves over without any outside help.

72 Here's what puzzles me about Soros and his NGO complex: where does the money come from?

Soros is rich, but he isn't *that* rich. His fortune is sub-$10 billion. That's serious money - enough money to do very big things - but it isn't a world-historic fortune. Yet his "foundations" spend world-historic fortunes semi-routinely. Some of what he's done doesn't require all *that* much money - like the AG race strategy he developed. That was probably maximally efficient in terms of capital invested. But Open Society is do deep in so many things that it doesn't seem like the Soros fortune is big enough to drive it. And that makes me wonder where the money is coming from.

Or I'm wrong and he's the greatest value-oriented sociopolitical investor in history.

I've been wondering how Soros funds all his schemes myself. He's not in the same weight-class as Bill Gates or Warren Buffett, though those two are probably funding money through OSF.

Maybe he's just diabolically charismatic at parting fools from their money to spend on evil purposes.

87 72 Here's what puzzles me about Soros and his NGO complex: where does the money come from?

Soros is rich, but he isn't *that* rich. His fortune is sub-$10 billion. That's serious money - enough money to do very big things - but it isn't a world-historic fortune. Yet his "foundations" spend world-historic fortunes semi-routinely. But Open Society is do deep in so many things that it doesn't seem like the Soros fortune is big enough to drive it. And that makes me wonder where the money is coming from.

Or I'm wrong and he's the greatest value-oriented sociopolitical investor in history.

I always thought Soros' personal wealth was greatly exaggerated. He's a front for billions in left wing advocacy money, most of it laundered and most of it from outside the USA. He hates Jews. There are no shortage of insanely wealthy Jew- and America-haters who for whatever reasons cannot or do not want to openly advocate and meddle in USA elections. So they run their money through Soros.

I remember watching a presser with him, where some imprudent reporter who I'm sure was later whipped to death asked: "why is it that a couple of years after this bailout, GM still hasn't announced a single new product line, or major new model?"

Rattner had a strange, rare candid moment for an apparatchik, and said the quiet part out loud. I'm paraphrasing, but just barely. He got mad and said "This was never about building cars. It's about putting money in one hand, and taking power from the other."

That stuck with me all this time, because it's a perfect way to describe how all these people think and work.

162 143 I will grant that the communists have managed to change my opinion on at least one thing: there should be a limit on how much wealth a person should have in a functioning republic.

I am quite willing to argue on where that line should be drawn but I have become convinced that it should be drawn. When you have individuals or families with as much money as some entire nation states, they will become the government, if only to protect themselves.

Montesquieu's Spirit of the Laws points out that a popular republic requires the population to be a bunch of small landholders. Land consolidation is what messed up the Roman Republic, industrialization is what messed up the American Republic.

The ancient tribes of Israel had laws to prevent land consolidation occurring over time to avoid the corresponding distortions and societal changes.

Given what a modern economy looks like, a major restructuring of government systems may be more feasible than trying to stabilize capital ownership at specific levels.

Board games like Monopoly, Clue and The Game of Life are iconic in many Americans' lives and in pop culture. Now some designers are exploring a wider range of topics, including how to use games to spark discussion about bigger issues.

One of those games, Daybreak, is set to launch this spring after years of development to tackle one of the most complex topics of all, how to bring the world together to combat climate change.

I've said before that if the Nazis were never a thing and World War II never happened, there's a pretty good bet that later in life the police would be digging up George Soros' backyard to find the bodies.

Pete Buttigieg claims Colorado graphic designer Lorie Smith deliberately 'provoked' Supreme Court gay wedding website case for the 'clear purpose of chipping away' at LGBTQ rights
Posted by: Gref

Yeah, she said 'no' to designing websites for queer weddings. If that isn't provoking an alphabet of grievance nothing is.
Of course the 1st amendment (nor any of the other amendments) matter to the butt packer.

234 I do NOT and will NEVER advocate restricting wealth. Become as rich as possible.

What I will advocate are extreme restrictions on government to manipulate and channel wealth to favored people.

These restrictions will be written by the very people whose influence you are trying to restrain.

It won't work.

238 Their ultimate goal is to reduce the mobility of the unwashed masses and stuff us all in "15 minute cities" so, crazy as it sounds, it's not inconsistent with their aims.

Hey Pete, stick to what you know by continuing to be wildly incompetent at your job and playing hid-the-cannoli with your husband. What a maroon.

... 'Matter of fact, it appears this Web designer only went into the wedding business for the purpose of provoking a case like this.'
... After the ruling, however, it was revealed that the person behind the request for the wedding website for a gay wedding wasn't gay and didn't know his name had been used.


So it was what it looked like: a hit job perpetrated under false pretenses.

But yeah. It's her own damn fault, pete. She's a provocateur.

I don't think so. Some, sure. And they don't care if lots of people die. But I think the goal is to return us to serfdom or outright slavery. They don't need so *many* people as slaves, but they don't want no slaves.

Preggers take on wealth is that it generally amplifies one's character & behavior: good people do more and better works; and of course bad people use it for evil and destruction.
