*Directly* tied to George Soros?
I do not know. One would need to follow the money, and to do that, one would need access to the bookkeeping, receipts, and tax records. I’m nobody, and I have no such access.
I only know a little bit, gleaned from public records & news reports online.
What I *think* is that we tend to attribute monolithic power to George Soros, without really understanding what it is George Soros really does.
Soros makes money as a financial wheeler-dealer. He’s a manipulator who knows how to “play” the system to his own advantage.
He then uses his money (or launders it) to fund a series of “nonprofits” to push his political agendas.
(Understand— “nonprofit” means tax-free. So nonprofit social justice organizations— posing as charities to help marginalized groups—refugees, immigrants—have become big time tax shelters for donors, and then these nonprofits in turn often RECEIVE your tax dollars in the form of grants.)
Here is the major thing Soros does: Soros’ nonprofits issue GRANTS & provide TRAINING to OTHER “nonprofits” and their resident ACTIVISTS.
Back to your original question re: *direct* ties: The Soros methodology— of forming multiple nonprofits, then shuffling funds & influence from one nonprofit to another & intermingling donated funds with tax dollars-— has become so ubiquitous, many new nonprofits are simply paralleling those methods independently, without necessarily originating from within the Soros orbit itself.
Then those new, independent nonprofits can also begin interacting with the Soros constellation, petitioning Soros’ groups for monetary grants, training, etc.— or not, as they so choose.
It’s not unusual to see certain activists’ names as members of multiple nonprofits; wealthy donors likewise.
It’s all a very tangled web, and often difficult to determine who is being paid by Soros versus who is merely marching alongside.
Another interesting question is how much of our tax dollars are weaving a circuitous path back into Soros-connected groups?
The Clinton Foundation is an example of a group of nonprofits patterned after the Soros Open Societies group of nonprofits.
The CF exists parallel, and in a sense competing with, while at the same time interacting with a lot of the same individuals, groups, and goals, as Soros.
And I do know the Clinton Global Initiative laundered millions in stolen tax dollars (along with millions more in donations to Hillary’s POTUS campaign) by ostensibly co-funding something called the Alliance for Clean Cookstoves.
Google Alliance for Clean Cookstoves for an excellent example of how the “climate change” / fleecing of the American taxpayer— while using 3rd world poor as pawns— scam works.
Years ago I was doing some volunteer work and accidentally became a force - so to speak. The head of one of our larger non-profits said it was time I learned the ‘dirty truth’... I did my ‘not interested’ thing and she said I had to know so we went into her office. There she told me that all the non-profits in town had agreed to pass around the clients since all of them had to make their numbers to get United Way funding... and there weren't enough people 'in need' to keep all the agencies viable. My group needed to start ‘passing around our clients’... I have other stories I could tell... but suffice it to say I know you have a clue about what's going on...
Oh, and the 16 Billion dollars Cummings district received? Their excuse why it's not graft is it went to 'non-profits'. Is that a hoot or what?
