Soros gifts $5.1 million check to Democrats as he enters 2020 funding game

Billionaire financier George Soros has created a super PAC and written a $5.1 million check for Democrats ahead of next year’s election. However, the liberal mega-donor has not revealed which candidate will get his blessing.
Soros spent more than $20 million during the 2016 election, donating more than $9 million to Political Action Committees (PACs) supporting Hillary Clinton, and the rest on committees working to install Democrats in Congress and to boost minority turnout at the polls.
According to records filed with the Federal Election Commission on Wednesday, the 88-year-old billionaire kicked his 2020 efforts off with a deposit of $5.1 million into his own Democracy PAC, more than doubling the $2.1 million he had donated at this point in the 2016 cycle.
Well known for funding liberal causes around the world, Soros’ fingerprints can also be found on some of the world’s most powerful think tanks, including some with less-than-peaceful aims. Soros funds the neoconservative Center for American Progress and the Atlantic Council - a pro-intervention lobby propped up by a slew of arms manufacturers. The Hungarian investor has also been linked to the “pro-democracy” European group Avaaz, which has advocated for no-fly zones in Libya and agitated for regime change in Venezuela and Iran.
In his broader quest to advance the cause of his brand of liberalism around the world, Soros has also funded Facebook’s third-party ‘fact checking’ partners, to filter forbidden news and views from the platform.
