Mr. Putin, buddy, pal, I need a favor. Please tell me you want Soros on a warrant.

As the Eddie Murphy character, in “Trading Places” said, “the best way to hurt rich people, is make them into poor people!”

Defang him, freeze his “operating capital”.

Include his son, who’s following in daddy’s footsteps.

It would be very surprising if a closer look at his application did not reveal a substantive lie - one that could void his citizenship.

Have Congress call him before them to answer questions about the organizations he supports. If he refuses he immediately becomes eligible for revocation of his citizenship

As a citizen he enjoys the Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination. That's a complete non-starter.

You can't just wave a wand and revoke someone's citizenship. The ex-Nazis who lost theirs only did so after lengthy court battles.

There IS a cause under which Soros’ citizenship might be revoked. Citizenship applications (at least throughout the early 1990s), STILL had a question about whether the applicant had ever been a member of the Nazi party in Germany, collaborated with the Nazis, etc.

If Soros lied on his application (ie failed to disclose his Nazi collaboration), that COULD be the basis for moving to do so.

Practically speaking, Soros would die of old age before the courts were finished adjudicating it (think of the John Demjanjuk case....)

Remember John Demjanjuk? He was hounded to death because of his supposed Nazi past. Soros seems proud of his work for the Nazis.

Novel idea? Huh?

It’s common sense. And it’s not a new idea, we’ve been demanding that here for years. Soros makes all other financial and political villains look tame in comparison.

That's what I said. It's a novel idea to them, bu for us it has been discussed many times over. The difference now is that the possibility is now in our grasp and we should seize the day as they say.

I think Trump should tell Bibi and Theresa May to present him with an extradition order and he will apprehend Soros and extradite him. I believe we have extradition agreements with both countries.

We do have extradition treaties with both. I know Israel's is on a case by case on their end. Same may hold true in Great Britain (but I understand they seem to offer little resistance - except when it comes to terrorists).

Per Wikipedia:

Many treaties also require that requests for provisional arrest be submitted through diplomatic channels, although some permit provisional arrest requests to be sent directly to the Department of Justice. The Department of State reviews foreign extradition demands to identify any potential foreign policy problems and to ensure that there is a treaty in force between the United States and the country making the request, that the crime or crimes are extraditable offenses, and that the supporting documents are properly certified in accordance with 18 U.S.C. § 3190. If the request is in proper order, an attorney in the State Department's Office of the Legal Adviser prepares a certificate attesting to the existence of the treaty, that the crime or crimes are extraditable offenses, and that the supporting documents are properly certified in accordance with 18 U.S.C. § 3190, and forwards it with the original request to the Justice Department's Office of International Affairs ("OIA").

Once the OIA receives a foreign extradition request, it reviews the request for sufficiency and forwards sufficient requests to the United States Attorney's Office for the judicial district in which the fugitive is located. The U.S. Attorney's office then obtains a warrant, and the fugitive is arrested and brought before the magistrate judge or the US district judge. The government opposes bond in extradition cases. Unless the fugitive waives his or her right to a hearing, the court will hold a hearing pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3184 to determine whether the fugitive is extraditable. If the court finds the fugitive to be extraditable, it enters an order of extraditability and certifies the record to the Secretary of State, who decides whether to surrender the fugitive to the requesting government. OIA notifies the foreign government and arranges for the transfer of the fugitive to the agents appointed by the requesting country to receive him or her. Although the order following the extradition hearing is not appealable (by either the fugitive or the government), the fugitive may petition for a writ of habeas corpus as soon as the order is issued. The district court's decision on the writ is subject to appeal, and the extradition may be stayed if the court so orders.

I’d check his immigration papers. I’d bet he didn’t acknowledge being a Nazi collaborator. That would be sufficient to strip him of citizenship.

Citizenship is nothing. Arrest him and throw away the key.

Didn’t he collaborate with the Nazi’s? Isn’t that enough of a reason?
