How billionaire George Soros has spent $40 million helping elect liberal officials
>
Billionaire George Soros has used his wealth to reshape America in his liberal vision by funding campaigns to wake up district attorneys across the country.
Over the years, Soros has invested millions behind liberal district attorneys, either with direct donations or funneled through political action committees, effectively buying elections and leading to the appointment of at least 75 supporting prosecutors. his leftist agenda.
Soros has spent at least $40 million on the project, wrote Matt Palumbo, author of The Man Behind the Curtain: Inside the Secret Network of George Soros, in the New York Post – a minuscule sum for a man worth at least $32 billion.
Prosecutors for the billionaire scrapped bail laws and chose to forgo prosecuting crimes like theft and reckless driving, effectively giving criminals a free pass and causing law and order to collapse across America.
As a direct result, crime has skyrocketed in major cities overseen by Soros’s district attorneys. In 2021, under the reign of Kim Foxx, Chicago had the most murders since 1994. And in Philadelphia, drug use and violent crime have seen an increase since Larry Krasner took office.
Soros, a Hungarian-born businessman, has long supported liberal politics. In the 2000s, he openly opposed President George W. Bush and donated millions to block his re-election, later donating large sums to the presidential campaigns of Barack Obama and Hilary Clinton.
Below are some of their most notorious DAs and their policies.

With little more to fear than a slap on the wrist for robbery, criminals have proliferated in the city and raids on stores have skyrocketed.
