Soros foundation helping fund anti-Trump 'No Kings' protests nationwide
S E E D E D C O N T E N T
FIRST ON FOX: George Soros ’ foundation is funding the "No Kings" protests that Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., and tens of thousands of protesters will be participating in on Saturday.
Soros, a billionaire investor and notorious Democratic Party donor, is founder of the Open Society Foundation.
In 2023, the foundation, through the Open Society Action Fund, issued a two-year grant of $3 million to the Indivisible organization . The grant was "to support the grantee's social welfare activities," according to the Open Society Foundation's website.
Indivisible is "managing data and communications with participants" for the "No Kings" protests that will be taking place in Washington and across the country.
Per the Open Society Foundation’s website , Soros "has given away more than $32 billion of his personal fortune" to the foundation. His son Alex serves as chairman of the board.
According to the Indivisible organization's website , Ezra Levin is the executive co-director behind the group. Leah Greenberg, Levin's wife, serves as the other executive co-director.
Greenberg formerly served as the policy director for the Tom Perriello for Governor of Virginia campaign. Perriello was the executive director for the Open Society Foundation from October 2018 to July 2023, furthering the ties between Soros and the Indivisible organization.
In 2017, Indivisible received a $350,000 grant from Tides Advocacy, a group affiliated with the Tides Network. The Tides Foundation, a foundation also affiliated with the Tides Network, has been accused of funding anti-Israel campus riots.
The grant report for 2024 was not available on the IRS nor the Open Society Foundation websites, though Soros' foundation has awarded grants to Indivisible every year since the organization's conception in 2017. In total, the Open Society Foundation has awarded $7.61 million in grants to the group behind the "No Kings" protest.
Fox News Digital reached out to Perriello, the Indivisible group, the Open Society Foundation and the Tides Network but did not receive responses in time for publication.
Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, was the first to sound the alarm on ties between Soros and the "No Kings" protest during an interview with Fox News’ Sean Hannity on Thursday, saying "There's considerable evidence that George Soros and his network are behind funding these rallies, which may well be riots all across the country."
Cruz introduced the Financial Underwriting of Nefarious Demonstrations and Extremist Riots (STOP FUNDERs) Act in July that would allow for the Department of Justice to impose Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO) charges against individuals behind the funding of "violent" and "extreme" protests.
"This politicized march is being organized by Soros operatives and funded by Soros money. No one denies these basic facts," Cruz told Fox News Digital. "The Trump administration and the Republican Congress are committed to countering this network of left-wing violence."
Per the Indivisible website, "On October 18, millions of us are rising again" to protest in an effort to paint President Donald Trump as a tyrant and an authoritarian king.
In addition to funding from Soros, the Communist Workers of America Union is also partnered with the "No Kings" protest.
"Protests can be strenuous and intense," the "How to Prepare for a Protest" section of the Indivisible website reads.
"They are most effective when we peacefully use our constitutionally protected rights of assembly and speech and properly prepare ahead of time," the website continued.

A surprise to none.
Hopefully justice will come for Soros.
Hilarious. A John Birch Society public service message.
so per left wing logic, every single person at the rally supports the communist workers of America and eveything they stand for.
I think you need another cup of coffee.
So now you don't think who organizes a demonstration matters?
Funny, you've spent 8 years claiming the exact opposite.
No one cares about George Soros except unhinged MAGAs.

By the JR standard, everyone who goes to the "no kings" march is a communist, because communists organized it.
Vic said communists organized it, which is the John Birch Society point of view. Dont know why you are having trouble understanding that.
Preston Mizell authored the story.
which is the John Birch Society point of view.
Can you show us what the John Birch Society has said about the "No Kings march?"
Dont know why you are having trouble understanding that.
I think many are having trouble with it.
Foreign billionaires like soros love to use useful idiots to help in their struggle against democracy
My mistake, remove foreign in front of soros, though it applies to others like Hohn and Wyss.
“,,,,,,,,billionaires like soros love to use useful idiots to help in their struggle against democracy ”
they’ve got a shitload of them.
Soros reminds me of Emperor Palpatine
We have the most corrupt presidential administration in American history and I am supposed to be worried about George Soros? ROFL.
I cant go to No Kings for medical reasons but if I were to go I wouldnt spend a second thinking about george soros. Its a non factor. The truth is no one out of the 5 or 10 million people who will go gives a dang about George Soros, they just dont want a dictator in America.
