The billionaire, who regularly backs Democratic congressional candidates and attorneys general, donated $1 million to the Color Of Change PAC, which calls itself the nation's largest online racial justice organization, according to records filed with the Federal Election Commission and obtained by the Washington Free Beacon.
The sum was Soros's largest political donation of the 2021 election cycle and supported the PAC's efforts to slash police budgets.
"The killings of George Floyd and Breonna Taylor and so many more at the hands of police violence have left us all outraged, but our movement is stronger than ever," the racial justice organization said in a petition calling for action against police departments.

"Now it's up to us to hold them [the Minneapolis Police] accountable, push for further systemic changes, and not lose the momentum needed to change the institution of policing forever," it continued.
"We know that policing doesn't keep us safe, communities do. Policing doesn't lead to thriving communities, investment does," the petition also said. "We must begin to envision the society that functions for ALL of us and we must begin by divesting from and dismantling the systems that unjustly harm Black people."
Soros's donation is the latest in a string of financial contributions toward groups or candidates that advocate for defunding the police or that are soft on crime.
The billionaire donated $2 million for the campaign of Los Angeles District Attorney George Gascon, who is facing a recall effort after he announced radical criminal reform changes.
The effort included "an end to cash bail, a ban on prosecutors seeking enhanced prison sentences, and showing leniency to many low-level offenders."
The Democratic megadonor has also funded other local prosecutor races across the country, helping Kim Gardner in Missouri, who released 34 of 36 individuals arrested during the summer riots in her city last year; District Attorney Larry Krasner in Philadelphia, who fired 31 prosecutors from his office and ordered police groups to lower prosecutions dramatically and shorten probation and parole periods; Kim Foxx in Chicago, who ended felony prosecutions for a number of crimes and deferred prison sentences; and Rachael Rollins in Massachusetts, who ran on a platform of decriminalizing an array of offenses.

He just won't go away...........
Are we not supposed to stop talking about people who just won't go away? Seems to be a common mantra around here.
He needs to be deported to Hungary 🇭🇺 to stand trial for crimes he committed there.
Trust me, you really don't want to go down that road.
Oh FFS. Again, he is totally clueless and oblivious to the truth
Why should he?
"Ahhh the "sugar daddy" of the Democrat machine.
What the huh? How moronic.
And that's only what they have found to date.
It's a much higher number no matter what disinformation dimbulbs on the left try to push
I thought of Soros last night when we heard from a border official who said individuals from 150 different counties have been encountered coming across the border. Carlson listened to the list of countries and said "those countries aren't anywhere near the US - Mexico border, how are they getting here?"
Saw that too.........strange. But not unexpected once someone basically opened the gate............
Interestingly i heard last night that many of the Afghan's who have assisted us throughout the years are now undergoing the process to legally immigrate to the US. I was thinking, maybe they should just load up a fleet of C-130's and C-5's and drop them on the southern border.
Probably be quicker.
They are being sent to various countries:
Can't have them here. Afghan translators and Cubans might just vote Republican
Lol
Who is "they"???
I asked, "Who are they", I did NOT ask "what is they". English can be tough sometimes huh.
Asked and answered.
You gave no names. How did you answer then?
Your question was asked and answered .... that the answer does need meet some irrational definition of "answer" is not my problem.
Look what’s happening in saint Louis with a Soros prosecutor in charge
Isn't that outrageous?
St. Louis chief prosecutor Kim Gardner accused of dereliction of duty
She knew what she was doing. Certain thugs can do as they please. As far as Soros is concerned traditional America must be broken!
I see how you refer to African Americans.
Thugs?
Well, it stands to reason why this progressive twat lets them go....
they're people of color and so is she.
How is she a 'Soros' prosecutor??????????????????????????????????????
Allow me:
A Missouri Ethics Commission filing on Saturday showed a $116,000 donation from Soros to the Missouri Justice and Public Safety PAC which was formed to support Gardner. The filing indicated Soros was the sole donor to the group so far. The PAC reported it has spent about $104,393 so far, including about $77,804 directly on Gardner.

So? Are republicans the only ones that can have PACS and Super PACS?
Soros buys influence with Democrats, including local racist activists
I would think that China, Russia, NK, Iran, Cuba and George Soros whould be forbidden from donating to political campaigns.
Wouldn't that be a good idea?
Is that what you read in the statement you quoted, because I don't see it.
Ooooo, scarey!!!
What's good for the goose....
Just because Mr. Soros supported her campaign, doesn't make her a 'Soros prosecutor'
Criminals everywhere start cheering.
Criminals are more that willing to help out any community that reduces/weakens their police force and laws.
Investors do not invest in communities with high crime rates, period. They want a return on their investment. They don't want their employees assaulted/murdered, and their businesses robbed, looted, or burnt to the ground.
Soros doesn't give a shit. It is not like the resulting increase in crime, violence, and instability will affect him or his income in the slightest.
