(I CANNOT FOR A MOMENT UNDERSTAND WHY SO CALLED CONSERVATIVE BILLIONAIRES ARE NOT AS PASSIONATE ABOUT THEIR CAUSES!!)
The United States is a lot less free than it was decades ago, even five years ago, and a globalist victory must of necessity end our sovereignty, our Bill of Rights and Constitution. They can’t co-exist in a collectivist society.
Some might think this premature but unless Americans start reacting to the dangers of collectivism consuming our Republic, it is inevitable and it will be soon. We are racing to that finish line in no small part thanks to George Soros, his money and his connections. Soros is a Socialist who believes in a new world order. He sees the U.S. Republic as standing in the way of his globalist vision.
The United States is a lot less free than it was decades ago, even five years ago, and a globalist victory must of necessity end our sovereignty, our Bill of Rights and Constitution. They can’t co-exist in a collectivist society.
Putting an end to the Republic is the Soros goal. He is the cat and we are the mouse.
“I realized [as a young man] that it’s money that makes the world go round,” says Soros, “so I might as well make money.… But having made it, I could then indulge my social concerns.” Invariably, those concerns center around a desire to change the world generally—and America particularly—into something new, something consistent with his vision of “social justice.”
Soros’ social justice vision is identical to Karl Marx’ social justice except Soros believes in a small elite and privileged society of which he would be a member.
Soros founded The Open Society. The term “open society” was originally coined in 1932 by the French philosopher Henri Louis Bergson, to describe societies whose moral codes were founded upon “universal” principles seeking to enhance the welfare of all mankind—as opposed to “closed” societies that placed self-interest above any concern for other nations and cultures.
He does not believe in sovereignty or in absolutes such as God. He believes in all things being relative and morals that can shift according to the common good as defined by the collective.
Soros-funded initiatives aim at voting; open borders; forcing through progressive candidates and legislation’ disarming the US, abolishing the Second Amendment; corrupting Christianity, particularly the Catholic Church; forcing leftist values into the judicial system; universal health care; organizations that force leftist ideals into music, art, and all media; radical environmentalism; drug legalization; global government; radical feminism; euthanasia; and anti-Israel agreements with Palestine. I won’t go into all of them here. A few is quite enough.
Soros has a radical anti-gun agenda. He has teamed up with Mayors Against Illegal Guns, the Bloomberg initiative, which was recently outed as an organization whose goal is to confiscate guns. Over 50 mayors have quit because of it, according to Townhall.
According to Ammoland, the Soros organization, the National League of Cities, is actively pushing extreme anti-gun measures:
• Registration of all handguns
• Banning semi-automatic firearms
• Cracking down on gun shows
• A thirty-day waiting period on all gun purchases
• Ending the manufacture of magazines holding more than 10-rounds
• Turning parks, libraries and other public places into so-called “gun free” zones.
These measures would only be the beginning. Confiscation is Soros’ end goal. The National League of Cities is made up of 49 affiliated state Municipal Leagues, who are ACTIVELY working in state legislatures and city councils nationwide.
Anyone who has looked into the UN Small Arms Treaty knows confiscation is the goal of the left.
Soros is a philanthropist who has used his charities to inculcate recipients of his largesse with indoctrination. Take the Catholics and other religious groups.
They are an easy mark because they believe in social justice. However, social justice in religion and in politics are not necessarily the same.
He funds the Sojourners which makes wealth redistribution into a biblical mandate. There is the Catholics in Alliance for the Common Good which brands individualism and capitalism as evil. Catholics for Choice is pushing for full abortion rights. If Soros can defeat pro-lifers, he can completely corrupt the church and its 100 million followers in the U.S.
Soros also funds organizations like the Progressive States Network which aggressively seeks to pass Progressive legislation in the States; and his Progressive Change Committee which campaigns for the most Progressive candidates. Indeed, the leftists have most of the cities under their control.
George Soros, the socialist billionaire who helps fund the Center for American Progress, has the ear of the president on every issue.
Soros has a dream for the world and in order to make it work, he must defeat the Republic and turn the United States into a democracy, which is a euphemism for socialism. His Open Society is a social justice, economic justice, environmental justice, pro-abortion, pro-population control, UN-friendly, Marxist society.
The Center of American Progress’s president, John Podesta, is now working with the Administration at the White House to push through Obama’s decidedly leftist agenda by circumventing Congress.
The Center for American Progress, an arm of George Soros, laid out the blueprint for the use of executive orders, rule making, agencies et al, to circumvent Congress in the organization’s definitive report, “The Power of the President, Recommendations to Advance Progressive Change.”
To quote Mr. Podesta, ‘The ability of President Obama to accomplish important change through these powers should not be underestimated.’
Using obfuscating language, the essay encourages the President to use the powers they think he has to ignore Congress and the confines of the Constitution. It outlines a plan for an extremely powerful Executive Branch.
They advise the President to use his “constitutional powers:”
Executive orders
Rulemaking
Agency management
Convening and creating public-private partnerships [crony socialism]
Commanding the armed forces [sequestration?]
Diplomacy [lying?]
On the issue of open borders, which is what amnesty condones, almost all the groups opposing any restrictions on immigration reform are funded by Soros. This past week several groups promised to “punish” Republicans who do not support immigration reform with a path to citizenship now. The groups such as the The Fair Immigration Reform Movement (FIRM), America’s Voice, and Center for Community Change are all Soros-funded groups.
We can’t allow a shadow culture to continue in our society and something must be done but Soros hopes to make ill use of the opportunity.
The immigration fight has successfully been turned into racism against Hispanics when in fact, forty percent of the people sneaking into the U.S. are from countries other than Mexico. The propaganda has worked and it is why Soros funds untold numbers of far-left groups.
His Migration Policy Institute seeks to create “a North America with gradually disappearing border controls … with permanent migration remaining at moderate levels.”
The issue for Soros isn’t just about helping illegal immigrants, it’s about erasing our borders and our sovereignty. It’s about legalizing tens of millions of Democrats because people from statist nations vote for statists which is what the Democratic Party is becoming with little pushback from moderates.
If you really have doubts, look at the symbols they use. Here is one in which they use the communist fist:
Catalist Seeks is a Soros organization building a Progressive voter database. Mr. Obama is using Obama for America in the same way.
The Brennan Center for Justice which is Soros-funded, aims to restore voting rights to felons immediately following conviction because felons overwhelmingly vote for Democrats according to polls. Everyone is falling in line and buying into the idea that it will be part of their rehabilitation. This is in no small part due to the media.
When the Brennan Center for Justice, part of NYU’s Law School, came out against voting law changes, including voter ID as racist and anti-poor, based on a study before the 2012 election, The New York Times, Washington Post, Wall Street Journal, USA Today, and CBS News failed to note that the study was funded by George Soros. They do make a point of the Koch Brothers funding Libertarian or Conservative causes.
The price tag for the study came to over $10 million, according to Newsbusters.
As reported by Discover the Networks, Soros has a strong hand in the media.
The Media Research Center, in 2011, found that he spent $48 million in funds for: NBC, ABC, the New York Times, the Washington Post, the Columbia Journalism Review, ProPublica, the Center for Public Integrity, the Center for Investigative Reporting, The Lens, the Columbia School of Journalism, the National Federation of Community Broadcasters, the National Association of Hispanic Journalists, the Committee to Protect Journalists, the Organization of News Ombudsmen, National Public Radio, the Pacifica Foundation, The American Prospect Inc. (the owner and publisher of The American Prospect magazine), the Nation Institute, the Media Fund, the Independent Media Center, the Independent Media Institute, Media Matters For America, and Free Press.
He funds “nonpartisan” watchdog organizations such as the Kansas City Chapter of The League of Women Voters.
Soros’ Open Society Institute and the Tides Foundation fund hundreds of groups devoted to pushing America to the left, including extreme environmentalists and avowed communists.
Soros has cultivated black communities and sold his Marxist philosophy to them. Some Soros groups have focused their efforts on spreading the belief that white racism is undiminished and intractable.
He funds the NAACP which should be renamed the NAAFLCP, the National Association for the Advancement of Far-Left Colored People.
When Lt. Col. Allen West said 80 House Democrats “are members of the Communist Party, it’s called the Congressional Progressive Caucus”, the NAACP ousted him. If he had said the Tea Party was racist they would have given him an award.
West’s statement was correct but he wasn’t armed with the proof at the time.
Soros’ Legal Defense and Education Fund provides legal and educational services for the NAACP. The NAACP supports racial preferences in employment and education, as well as the racial gerrymandering of voting districts. Underpinning its support for race preferences is the fervent belief that white racism in the United States remains an intractable, largely undiminished, phenomenon.
Soros funds organizations that help corrupt the vote.
He recently gave $1 million to the NAACP to fight voter ID laws. The NAACP recently held a march and, ironically, no one could join without a photo ID.
In 2012 Soros gave the Advancement Project, an organization funded by the convicted felon George Soros, sued Wisconsin over the new state Voter ID law. This is something he has done repeatedly.
Project Vote is funded by him and it is the voter mobilization arm of the infamous ACORN, and, yes, ACORN does still exist.
Project Vote, another Soros group, is the voter-mobilization arm of the Soros-funded ACORN. A persistent pattern of lawlessness and corruption has followed ACORN/Project Vote activities over the years. While the IRS is targeting Catherine Englebrecht of True the Vote, an organization that tries to keep the vote honest, Project Vote operates freely in the shadows of numerous minority communities.
George Soros is funding his son Jonathan’s efforts to destroy the Electoral College with an initiative that would bypass Congress called the National Popular Vote (NPV) or the National Popular Vote Compact (NPVC). They are close to having the number of states needed to pass it. It would ensure a permanent Democratic President and Vice President and it would enshrine voter corruption.
It is very complex. The article on this link helps explain the NPV. The corrupt scheme will give the power of the election to as few as 11 states in some instances. The big cities, which are liberal, will decide the election. When the Framers devised the college, it was for the express purpose of giving less-populated states a say in the presidential election. NPVC would destroy that.
It has bipartisan support in what can only be described as foolish or betrayal. Check out this interview on the subject.
Soros shows up everywhere, at CPAC, the Conservative Union PAC, as a funder of an anti-Israel Evangelical group, and even as a supporter of the 9/11 Truthers which he uses to push for his type of election reform.
When you see extremism and moral corruption in our society, look for George Soros and do consider this, the Republic cannot survive alongside a collective state as he has envisioned.
The upper portion of this page is devoted to organizations that are funded directly by George Soros and his Open Society Institute (OSI). The lower portion of the page focuses on organizations which do not receive direct funding from Soros and OSI, but which receive money from one or more groups that do get direct OSI funding.

Promoting increased funding for social welfare programs by bringing "attention to major national issues related to poverty," the Center bases its training programs on the techniques taught by the famed radical organizer Saul Alinsky.
Center for Constitutional Rights: This pro-Castro organization is a core member of the open borders lobby, has opposed virtually all post-9/11 anti-terrorism measures by the U.S. government, and alleges that American injustice provokes acts of international terrorism.
Center for Economic and Policy Research: This group opposed welfare reform, supports "living wage" laws, rejects tax cuts, and consistently lauds the professed achievements of socialist regimes, most notably Venezuela.
Center for Reproductive Rights: CRR's mission is to guarantee safe, affordable contraception and abortion-on-demand for all women, including adolescents. The organization has filed state and federal lawsuits demanding access to taxpayer-funded abortions (through Medicaid) for low-income women.
Center for Responsible Lending: This organization was a major player in the subprime mortgage crisis. According to Phil Kerpen (vice president for policy at Americans for Prosperity), CRL “sh[ook] down and harass[ed] banks into making bad loans to unqualified borrowers.” Moreover, CRL negotiated a contract enabling it to operate as a conduit of high-risk loans to Fannie Mae.
Center on Budget and Policy Priorities: Reasoning from the premise that tax cuts generally help only the wealthy, this organization advocates greater tax expenditures on social welfare programs for low earners.
Center on Wisconsin Strategy (COWS): Aiming to redistribute wealth by way of higher taxes imposed on those whose incomes are above average, COWS contends that "it is important that state government be able to harness fair contribution from all parts of society – including corporations and the wealthy."

Democratic Justice Fund: DJF opposes the Patriot Act and most efforts to restrict or regulate immigration into the United States -- particularly from countries designated by the State Department as "terrorist nations."
Democratic Party: Soros' funding activities are devoted largely to helping the Democratic Party solidify its power base. In a November 2003 interview, Soros stated that defeating President Bush in 2004 "is the central focus of my life" ... "a matter of life and death." He pledged to raise $75 million to defeat Bush, and personally donated nearly a third of that amount to anti-Bush organizations. "America under Bush," he said, "is a danger to the world, and I'm willing to put my money where my mouth is."

Free Press: This "media reform" organization has worked closely with many notable leftists and such organizations as Media Matters for America, Air America Radio, Global Exchange, Code Pink, Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting, the Revolutionary Communist Party, Mother Jones magazine, and Pacifica Radio.
Funding Exchange: Dedicated to the concept of philanthropy as a vehicle for social change, this organization pairs leftist donors and foundations with likeminded groups and activists who are dedicated to bringing about their own version of "progressive" change and social justice. Many of these grantees assume that American society is rife with racism, discrimination, exploitation, and inequity and needs to be overhauled via sustained education, activism, and social agitation.
Gamaliel Foundation: Modeling its tactics on those of the radical Sixties activist Saul Alinsky, this group takes a strong stand against current homeland security measures and immigration restrictions.
Gisha: Center for the Legal Protection of Freedom of Movement: This anti-Israel organization seeks to help Palestinians "exercise their right to freedom of movement."
Global Centre for the Responsibility to Protect: This group contends that when a state proves either unable or unwilling to protect civilians from mass atrocities occurring within its borders, it is the responsibility of the international community to intervene -- peacefully if possible, but with military force if necessary.
Global Exchange: Established in 1988 by pro-Castro radical Medea Benjamin, this group consistently condemns America's foreign policy, business practices, and domestic life. Following the 9/11 terrorist attacks, Global Exchange advised Americans to examine "the root causes of resentment against the United States in the Arab world -- from our dependence on Middle Eastern oil to our biased policy towards Israel."
Grantmakers Without Borders: GWB tends to be very supportive of leftist environmental, anti-war, and civil rights groups. It is also generally hostile to capitalism, which it deems one of the chief "political, economic, and social systems" that give rise to a host of "social ills."
Green For All: This group was created by Van Jones to lobby for federal climate, energy, and economic policy initiatives.
Health Care for America Now: This group supports a “single payer” model where the federal government would be in charge of financing and administering the entire U.S. healthcare system.
Human Rights Campaign: The largest "lesbian-gay-bisexual-transgender" lobbying group in the United States, HRC supports political candidates and legislation that will advance the LGBT agenda. Historically, HRC has most vigorously championed HIV/AIDS-related legislation, “hate crime” laws, the abrogation of the military’s “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” policy, and the legalization of gay marriage.
Human Rights First: This group supports open borders and the rights of illegal aliens; charges that the Patriot Act severely erodes Americans' civil liberties; has filed amicus curiae briefs on behalf of terror suspect Jose Padilla; and deplores the Guantanamo Bay detention facilities.
Human Rights Watch: This group directs a disproportionate share of its criticism at the United States and Israel. It opposes the death penalty in all cases, and supports open borders and amnesty for illegal aliens.
I'lam: This anti-Israel NGO seeks "to develop and empower the Arab media and to give voice to Palestinian issues."
Immigrant Defense Project: To advance the cause of illegal immigrants, the IDP provides immigration law backup support and counseling to New York defense attorneys and others who represent or assist immigrants in criminal justice and immigration systems, as well as to immigrants themselves.

Immigrant Workers Citizenship Project: This open-borders organization advocates mass immigration to the U.S.
Immigration Advocates Network: This alliance of immigrant-rights groups seeks to “increase access to justice for low-income immigrants and strengthen the capacity of organizations serving them.”
Immigration Policy Center: IPC is an advocate of open borders and contends that the massive influx of illegal immigrants into America is due to U.S. government policy, since “the broken immigration system […] spurs unauthorized immigration in the first place.”
Independent Media Center: This Internet-based, news and events bulletin board represents an invariably leftist, anti-capitalist perspective and serves as a mouthpiece for anti-globalization/anti-America themes.
Independent Media Institute: IMI administers the SPIN Project (Strategic Press Information Network), which provides leftist organizations with "accessible and affordable strategic communications consulting, training, coaching, networking opportunities and concrete tools" to help them "achieve their social justice goals."
Institute for America's Future: IAF supports socialized medicine, increased government funding for education, and the creation of an infrastructure "to ensure that the voice of the progressive majority is heard."
Institute for New Economic Thinking: Seeking to create a new worldwide "economic paradigm," this organization is staffed by numerous individuals who favor government intervention in national economies, and who view capitalism as a flawed system.
Institute for Policy Studies: This think tank has long supported Communist and anti-American causes around the world. Viewing capitalism as a breeding ground for "unrestrained greed," IPS seeks to provide a corrective to "unrestrained markets and individualism." Professing an unquestioning faith in the righteousness of the United Nations, it aims to bring American foreign policy under UN control.
Institute for Public Accuracy: This anti-American, anti-capitalist, anti-Israel organization sponsored actor Sean Penn’s celebrated visit to Baghdad in 2002. It also sponsored visits to Iraq by Democratic Congressmen Nick Rahall and former Democrat Senator James Abourezk
Institute for Women's Policy Research: This group views the U.S. as a nation rife with discrimination against women, and publishes research to draw attention to this alleged state of affairs. It also advocates unrestricted access to taxpayer-funded abortion-on-demand, stating that "access to abortion is essential to the economic well-being of women and girls."
International Crisis Group: One of this organization's leading figures is its Mideast Director, Robert Malley, who was President Bill Clinton's Special Assistant for Arab-Israeli Affairs. His analysis of the Mideast conflict is markedly pro-Palestinian.
J Street: This anti-Israel group warns that Israel’s choice to take military action to stop Hamas' terrorist attacks “will prove counter-productive and only deepen the cycle of violence in the region”
Jewish Funds for Justice: This organization views government intervention and taxpayer funding as crucial components of enlightened social policy. It seeks to redistribute wealth from Jewish donors to low-income communities “to combat the root causes of domestic economic and social injustice.” By JFJ's reckoning, chief among those root causes are the inherently negative by-products of capitalism – most notably racism and “gross economic inequality.”
