Billionaire George Soros, with a single check for $1.45 million last week, upended the money race in the Democratic primary campaign for district attorney in Philadelphia.

On April 28, Soros poured that cash into Philadelphia Justice & Public Safety, an independent political action committee running television ads in support of civil rights lawyer Larry Krasner, according to a campaign finance report filed Friday.

That PAC spent $497,456 of the money in the first two days after it registered in Philadelphia on April 25. That spending paid for TV commercials, campaign literature, and online ads, and to pay for people to canvass the city’s neighborhoods, seeking support for Krasner.

“A not so secret Sorus strategy; control the DA and you can control the enforcement of laws.”

As many know, he also dumps millions into the Secretary of State elections. Control the S of S, and you control the elections.

Given how that "power" is being exercised, it seems to me entirely possible that George's goal is being accomplished as planned.

I'd vote against anything Soros has anything to do with...he is backing a man in this case for AG, Krasner, who has never worked as a prosecutor...Soros had a hand in the Berkeley riots against free speech. George Soros hates America beyond all reason.

Republicans have won more elections than ever but do they have more power than ever? I am not sure. We still have Obamacare, millions of illegal immigrants and a bunch of hack judges, DAs and Washington bureaucrats.

Trump was the first Republican to win Pennsylvania since 1980. To maintain control any chicanery in Philly must be minimized.

It’s not Soros. It’s the people that run Soro’s money. The same general group of higher up people that used to use the Rockefeller (and other large tax exempt) Foundation.

Bring back the Reece Commission to get to the bottom of this once and for all.

What will it profit a man to gain the whole world and lose his soul! My husband keeps reminding me Soros evilness and his pure destructive hatred of Christians and anything having to do with Christ, will pay the ultimate price at the end!! There is absolutely nothing you take with you to your grave!! Absolutely Nothing! you can try to leave your mark here on earth and just like OVOMIT and his legacy was erased with a single stroke of the pen ! Nothing lasts forever only eternal salvation or damnation!! And I see the latter for his future! This evil bastard will pay the ultimate eventually!

Agreed. But does it make any difference which Democrat wins the job? They are all crooked in Philadelphis so why does Soros care?

Make sure you are sitting before reading this platform. It is almost a parody. Remember he is running for DA.

For 30 years Larry has walked the walk for civil rights.
He will keep walking the walk as District Attorney.

End mass incarceration

Stop prosecuting insufficient and insignificant cases

Review past convictions, free the wrongfully convicted

Stop cash bail imprisonment

Treat addiction as a medical problem, not a crime

Bring police and communities together

Stand up for our rights and liberties

Stop pursuing death sentences

End illegal stop-and-frisk

End civil asset forfeiture

Resist the Trump Administration

Protect immigrants while protecting everybody

Reject a return to the failed drug wars of the past

Stand up to police misconduct

Rigging primaries? By all rights, that shouldn’t set well with democrats. But, hey! It’s all good, those whose candidates are being screwed out of a chance will just fall into line like good little doobies. That’s how it is when you know your place.

>>so why does Soros care? <<

Good question. Krasner is the most extreme of the DA candidates and is a good example of how Dems can cherry pick minor elections to achieve great power.

control the DA and you control the LACK OF ENFORCEMENT of laws (at least, any laws pertaining to violent conduct by Soros-backed goons)

year and and year out, the SorozNazi is permitted to continue to control/buy/buy off governments (including our fed govt for at least the last 8 years pre-Trump.. and still many Congresscritters/senators as is patent)

and local DA’s and state Attys General, and political hacks all across USA ... and he funds all kinds of seditious and dangerous groups that hate USA, UK, Christians, Jews, Israel, most of Europe.. plus he nearly broke the Bank of England and he basically did break Malaysia and he’s upended governments and their policies in numerous countries, while funding all sorts of anti-Christian, anti-Jewish, anti-western liberties.....

some other nations (I have read) have felony arrest warrants out for him, and... yet...

and he is allowed to continue....day in and year in and year out
plus his evil crusades will continue, too, as he has indoctrinated.raised/taught his children to carry them on when he finally, at long .long last.. meets Satan...
???????
