Soros Gave $16,568,483 to Group Behind Project Push to Kill Senate Filibuster
NewsBusters ^ | 3/24/2021 | Joseph Vazquez

Posted on 03/24/2021 8:24:03 AM PDT by JV3MRC

A leftist “dark money” group tied to liberal billionaire globalist George Soros has led the push to have Senate Democrats eliminate the filibuster, according to a new report.

The Washington Free Beacon reported that the radical group Fix Our Senate “is steering a coalition of 60 progressive groups to pressure moderate Democrats to eliminate the filibuster, which requires a 60-vote supermajority to advance legislation.”

Fix Our Senate has existed as a "project" of the leftist “Sixteen Thirty Fund, a nonprofit incubator managed by the D.C.-based consulting firm Arabella Advisors.” Soros’s Open Society Policy Center (OSPC) gave the Sixteen Thirty Fund $16,568,483 between 2016 and 2019 alone. “As a subsidiary of the Sixteen Thirty Fund, Fix Our Senate does not have to register as a standalone nonprofit with the IRS. This allows the group to operate largely in secret,” The Beacon noted. Fix Our Senate “does not have to disclose its donors or file tax forms that would shed light on its financial activity, board members, or contractors,” according to The Beacon.

Until the opposition gets a majority. Then all of a sudden we didn’t mean it.

Is there a date when the filibuster debate must be decided, or can this rhetorical ‘saber rattling’ go on for months?

See, no problem- buy the government you want.

No amount of voting, walking with a sign or calling/writing our ‘elected’ officials is going to change this.

They are fishing for a reason to abolish it.

Immigration? Does not poll well.

Gun control? Polls better.

The Republicans will need to amend to Constitution to include and define the Filibuster.

Soroznazi will succeed in imposing his nazi style leftist dictatorship on America. Why? It is simple. Nobody stops him.

Hopefully, the GOP has someone in addition to Mitch McConnell trying to keep the filibuster in.
Mitch has lost some credibility with both parties due to his ‘intemperate’ (some would say CraZy& destructive) behavior re: Trump after the second impeachment.

George Soros should be at Guantanamo, awaiting execution.

Instead, he runs the United States government.

‘A leftist “dark money” group’

If you ever wondered what “rightist dark money groups” advocate for, see The Bush Administration(s). There don’t appear to be any such groups that support putting America First.

If there was a list of all of the political influence Soros has put his money in, from buying DA positions, political action groups, buying politicians on both sides, funding groups like antifa, etc, it would look like he is buying the country. And not secretly, but blatantly. With zero opposition.

No difference in Soros paying millions to control the House and Senate than January 6th riot. Same thing.

“...buy the government you want...”

The currency now is ‘votes’
