What would Open Society Foundation (OSF) president and fund manager George Soros want with the small, landlocked nation of Macedonia? As it turns out, plenty. The Daddy Warbucks of progressive causes is working overtime to weaken European borders and facilitate the flow of refugees from the Middle East by sending money to disrupt nations holding both democratic elections and cracking down on illegal immigration.
But he hasn't done it alone. The U.S. State Department has been working right alongside him.
The aid that the U.S. has provided to Macedonia during their long friendship has been channeled through the U.S. Agency of International Development (USAID). While the U.S.' goals for Macedonia include benign statements on investing in democracy, the State Department began favoring partnerships with Soros' long litany of organizations in 2012. These organizations are anything but democratic. Instead, they are pushing progressive, violent, and radical ideals throughout Europe. Soros owns or controls over 60 NGO's in Macedonia -- the same ones that receive grants from the USAID program! Among other efforts, Soros has been funneling USAID money into the Social-Democratic Alliance of Macedonia (SDSM) -- the country's former Communist party.
Yes, U.S. money has been going to support the communists in Macedonia.
Macedonia's prime-minister-elect Nikola Gruevski had harsh words for Soros: "His [Soros'] foundation, in finances and human resources is the most powerful foundation in the world that has political goals After a while, entire institutions, ministries, perhaps governments and their intelligence services are infected with his views, his ideology, his views and goals."
The people of Macedonia are so tired of Soros' 25-year history of meddling in their country that they've banded to form Stop Operation Soros (SOS). At a recent press conference, the SOS co-founder Nikola Srbov stressed, "The Open Society Foundation, operating under the Soros umbrella, used its funding and personnel to support violent processes in Macedonia. It has monopolized the civil society sector, pushing outside any organization which disagrees with the Soros ideology." Srbov specifically called out the USAID program, saying that SDSM has been supported through USAID and the U.S. had been exerting direct political influence in Macedonia. He told the press that now, in the Trump era, Americans need to know the truth.
The same man who helped the terrorist group, the Muslim Brotherhood, in Egypt, funded the violent protests in Ferguson, Mo., and channeled millions into Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton's election campaigns is now trying to crush democracy in the small nation of Macedonia with State Department dollars.
But a Soros-less State Department could be underway. Recently, the State Department was gripped by a mass exodus of top officials. Most notable was the resignation of Patrick Kennedy, the undersecretary for management. While he was a career diplomat, Kennedy was anything but squeaky clean. During the congressional investigation of the bungled Benghazi mission, House GOP investigators faulted him for failing to provide adequate security. Kennedy once again took center stage during the investigation into Hillary Clinton's email server when an FBI witness said Kennedy had offered a "quid pro quo" to another FBI official in the attempt to suppress evidence that would undermine Hillary Clinton's claim not to have classified information on her server.
Department spokesperson Mark Toner (a former Obama White House spokesperson) indicated that turnover is the norm when the White House changes hands from one political party to another, and that some of the resignations were expected. But considering Trump's follow-through on the recall of ambassadors and envoys from overseas, it may well be that the Trump administration realizes a housecleaning is necessary. It will also require leadership that is unafraid to take on the imbedded liberal special interests at the State Department.

That's for sure. I just cringe when I think of how much help and money he put into Hillary's campaign. I have to quit saying, "We dodged a bullet", but it was about as close to heart stopping as I could take.
Soros has to be dealt with. He is a domestic enemy, pure and simple, plus a pox on Western Civilization.
Right on!
Just think; if Hitlery had become president, she would be on her way to becoming the wealthiest woman on earth. The millions she made as SoS were chump change.
You’re right as can be; it would be a huge green light. She must not be allowed to get away with her crimes.
I’d bet that she is nervous as an old whore in church.

A document from the Federal Elections Commission (FEC) indicates that Donald Trump took steps last week to outmaneuver nonprofit organizations, leaving them unable to officially campaign against him over the next few years of his Presidency.
Filed on January 20th, 2017, the letter states that, while not an official announcement for reelection, Donald Trump has filed an FEC Form 2 in order to ensure compliance with the Federal Election Campaign Act. This is an unprecedented, although legal, move for the President to make. Barack Obama did not file for his 2012 re-election bid until April 2011.
Having filed (even if not formally announcing a bid) as a candidate, Trump would be able to coordinate with PACs and other similar organizations.
More importantly, 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations would no longer be able to engage in political speech which could theoretically affect the results of the 2020 U.S. Presidential Election without running the risk of losing their nonprofit status. The move effectively bars interest groups from creating nonprofits which they could funnel money into for the purposes of opposing Trumps initiatives.
This will likely create chaos for political opponents of Trump such as George Soros, who has sunk significant amounts of money into various nonprofit groups with the intent of opposing Trumps government. How 501(c)(3) organizations will comply with the FECs regulations when participating an actions which qualify as political speech remains to be seen.
The move is consistent with Trumps campaign promises to reduce the financial influence of private special interest groups on Washington.

Podesta-Soros Master Plan - How To Take Over America - 2008 And Beyond!
Common Sense Evaluation / FR Posted by gaggs
Wikileaks Email ID 59125 exposes Hillary's campaign manager, John Podesta, and George Soros Master Plan on how to take over America in 2008 and beyond!
Its all there in the memos, the whole scheme taking over the economy, protracted war, dividing Americans and controlling the media. (Excerpt) Read more at commonsenseevaluation.com ...
The crucial point here is that arch-villains Podesta and Soros are linked together. Soros is under the radar but Podesta has been more visible.....
THANKS TO PODESTA'S ENDLESS EMAILS we know
(a) Podesta has carpel-tunnel syndrome, (b) several govt pensions, (c) is cashing scads of govt checks, (d) is a fixer for the rich and powerful.
Podesta has been close to power for years, effortlessly getting numerous top level, high-powered govt jobs, and he even controls the media.
Seems Podesta got rich trading on insider info, and is paid off for his powerful positions, receiving valuable stocks in a Russian-connected energy company (verified to date).
Sounds like a whole lot of positive nudges from our Potus the Nudger, Trump!
Amen re what you just posted:
How mucha this crap is going on?
Seems like a new scam is uncovered almost everyday.
No wonder the establisment is so anti trump.
No wonder the USA is 20 tril in debt.
Thanks for including me, Liz.
How much influence do you think Podesta still maintains?
If we could get to Soros through Podesta, or vice versa, wouldn’t that be great.
Somehow, we gotta take these people out.
These lamebrains think she's one smart classy lady and that the election was stolen right out from under from her. (cue laugh machine) So there's all kinds of possibilities...depending on when Hillary gets her act together.
=============================================
The Podesta angle in this must be investigated. After she lost, the furious Hillary horse-whipped Podesta, into action. Podesta came charging out of the gate like Greased Lightning, galloping at breakneck speed sweating it out, desperate to make Hillary look like a "victim."

John Podesta Op-Ed: Washington Post post-election op-ed / FR POSTED by by ColdOne
PODESTA: The more we learn about the Russian plot to sabotage Hillary Clintons campaign and elect Donald Trump, and the failure of the FBI to adequately respond, the more shocking it gets. The former acting director of the CIA has called the Russian cyberattack the political equivalent of 9/11. Just as after the real 9/11, we need a robust, independent investigation into what went wrong inside the government and how to better protect our country in the future.
As the former chair of the Clinton campaign and a direct target of Russian hacking, I understand just how serious this is. So I was surprised to read in the New York Times that when the FBI discovered the Russian attack in September 2015, it failed to (Excerpt) Read more of Podesta at washingtonpost.com ...

WikiLeaks: Tax Form Reveals Hillary's campaign chair, John Podesta,
Continued Ties to Russian Energy Company After Claiming He Divested
LINK http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2016/10/31/wikileaks-tax- form-reveals-john-podesta- continued-ties-to-russian-energy-company-after- claiming-he-divested/
PODESTA'S LUCRATIVE RUSSIAN CONNECTIONS--- A leaked Jan. 3, 2014 document shows that Podesta transferred more than 25,000 of 75,000 shares of Joule Technologies---a Russian-connected firm---to Leonidio Holdings LLC.
Leonidio Holdings, LLC, is listed w/ an address at his daughter's Megan Rouses Shannon Court home in Dublin, California. Rouse operates Megan Rouse Financial Planning from that same address.
The inference is to money laundering, perhaps tax evasion. Suggests that Megan Rouse's father, John Podesta, hid stocks connected to Russia. Documents show that Podesta received 75,000 shares of Joule Unlimited Technologies......an outfit which was linked to alleged money laundering by the Russian government, according to media reports.
The Center for American Progress (CAP) was started in 2003 by John Podesta, Bill Clinton's onetime Chief of Staff; Podesta led Obamas presidential transition team after 2008 and was Hillarys 2016 campaign manager.

Podestas CRONY relationship with the Clintons goes back to 1970.
