George Soros / IMAGE: BBC Stories via YouTube ( Headline USA ) Leftist billionaire George Soros and his family have been bankrolling politicians who support defunding the police, according to campaign finance records obtained by Fox News.
Soros and his daughter, Andrea Soros Colombel, have been funding a joint fundraising committee and political action committee that have poured cash into congressional leftist’ campaign accounts. The joint fundraising venture, called Lead the Way 2022, and the PAC, the Way to Lead PAC, have been supporting the campaigns of Rep. Cori Bush , D-Mo., and 12 other leftist candidates part of the “ Defund the Police ” movement.
Federal Election Commission records show that Colombel donated $100,000 to Lead the Way 2022, and Soros moved $100,000 from his Democracy PAC to the Way to Lead’s non-contribution account, which is used for advertisements. These donations make Soros and Colombel the committees’ top respective backers.
Lead the Way 2022 then transferred nearly $40,000 into Bush’s campaign coffers, and $28,000 into Rana Abedelhamid’s campaign. Abdelhamid is running in New York’s 12th congressional district and has called defunding law enforcement a feminist “priority.”
The committee also donated $28,000 to Kina Collins, a candidate in Illinois’ 7th district who attended a defund the police rally and called for the abolition of Immigration and Customs Enforcement, and $41,000 to Odessa Kelly, who is running in Tennessee’s 7th district and said she is “on board” with the groups “leading the defund-the-police charge.”
Bush has been, by far, the most outspoken advocate for defunding the police. Even after Democrat leadership urged its congressional members to avoid the unpopular and controversial policy, Bush vowed she would never stop using the “defund the police” slogan.
“I always tell [fellow Democrats], ‘If you all had fixed this before I got here, I wouldn’t have to say these things,’” […]
Will America-First News Outlets Make it to 2023?
Things are looking grim for conservative and populist news sites.
There’s something happening behind the scenes at several popular conservative news outlets. 2021 was bad, but 2022 is proving to be disastrous for news sites that aren’t “playing ball” with the corporate media narrative. It’s being said that advertisers are cracking down, forcing some of the biggest ad networks like Google and Yahoo to pull their inventory from conservative outlets. This has had two major effects. First, it has cooled most conservative outlets from discussing “taboo” topics like Pandemic Panic Theater, voter fraud, or The Great Reset. Second, it has isolated those ad networks that aren’t playing ball.
Certain topics are anathema for most ad networks. Speaking out against vaccines or vaccine mandates is a certain path to being demonetized. Highlighting voter fraud in the 2020 and future elections is another instant advertising death penalty. Throw in truthful stories about climate change hysteria, Critical Race Theory, and the border crisis and it’s easy to understand how difficult it is for America-First news outlets to spread the facts, share conservative opinions, and still pay the bills.
Without naming names, I have been told of several news outlets who have been forced to either consolidate with larger organizations or who have backed down on covering certain topics out of fear of being “canceled” by the ad networks. I get it. This is a business for many of us and it’s not very profitable. Those of us who do this for a living are often barely squeaking by, so loss of additional revenue can often mean being forced to make cuts. That means not being able to cover the topics properly. Its a Catch-22: Tell the truth and lose the money necessary to keep telling the truth, or avoid the truth and make enough money to survive. Those who have chosen survival simply aren’t able to spread the truth properly.
We will never avoid the truth. The Lord will provide if it is His will. Our job is simply to share the facts, spread the Gospel, and educate as many Americans as possible while exposing the forces of evil.
To those who have the means, we ask that you please donate. We have options available now, but there is no telling when those options will cancel us. We have our GivingFuel page. There have been many who have been canceled by PayPal, but for now it’s still an option. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to get the truth to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
Thank you, and God Bless!
