Soros-Backed Liberal Groups Raked in Tens of Millions From PPP
Washington Free Beacon ^ | July 13, 2020 | Joe Schoffstall

Posted on 07/14/2020 7:53:59 PM PDT by Twotone

At least 18 left-wing groups supported by the billionaire George Soros's liberal donor club applied for federal loans meant to help small businesses during the coronavirus pandemic, receiving up to $20 million in taxpayer cash between them.

Groups backed by the Democracy Alliance, a donor network cofounded by Soros, hauled in cash from the Paycheck Protection Program, a federal program established to provide an economic boost to small businesses and their workers during coronavirus shutdowns. Together, the groups received between $8.5 million and $20.7 million. In addition to the Democracy Alliance groups, another liberal donor network that pays the club for project services pulled in large sums from the small business relief program.

The cash influx comes as the Democracy Alliance ramps up its spending ahead of the November election. Its deep-pocketed partners mapped out a $275 million spending plan for the 2020 elections, calling into question whether groups aided by a network of millionaire and billionaire donors were in need of millions in taxpayer funds.

"The political groups that form the infrastructure of the far left rely on contributions from the country's richest millionaires and billionaires," one GOP operative said. "Now, those same groups are leaning on PPP loans while slamming the program as a handout to the rich. This shameless hypocrisy exemplifies how hollow and disingenuous their rhetoric is."

“How stupid is this? Taxpayer dollars being used to overthrow our own gov’t.”

I’ve been posting for years about the left making us pay for our own demise. Not at all surprised.

If I had funding terrorist groups inside the U. S. and let it
be known I was doing so, I would be at GITMO.

Why is Soros allowed to do this? Why are our k-12th grade
schools and colleges allowed to propagandize our children?

Why are our elected officials able to contribute to a global
effort to run a coup on the elected government of the
United States?

Why are terrorist groups allowed to operate freely in the
U. S.? Why are corporations free from being prosecuted
for funding them?

Why are groups free to attack Whites at will, harming them
seriously if not killing them?

What do we have to do to get these things addressed.

This is the biggest outright betrayal of the average law
abiding citizens in our nation’s history.

The absurdity is outlandish!

The government could have more money than it could spend if it would eliminate FRAUD.

While I agree that eliminating fraud would greatly improve things, statements like “could have more money than it could spend” invite the Left to proverbially ask us to hold their beer.

“...invite the Left to proverbially ask us to hold their beer..”

(chuckle) yes, but as we know the Left needs no reason when it comes to taking our money being the experts they are at making up fake reasons. It is fun to think about the amount of monies that is fraudulently ‘re-routed’...

Sure. This is part of soroznazi’s standard M.O. use the enemy’s money/ resources (America, our taxpayers) to undermine us. AS Lenin said, his enemies / capitalists would ( and to a Notable degree, did) supply the rope he’d use to hang them.

Surprise, surprise - NOT! We’ve been funding our own undoing for years. “Federal” (Read: taxpayer) money has been going to liberal/progressive/Marxist organizations and, in turn, to “progressive” Democrats for decades. As for Soros, why does the United States continue to ignore Soros’ decades of efforts to manipulate currencies (from which he’s made billions) and undermine governments and society in general around the world?

Soros lives for the same reason Hasan lived.

he is protected like Kaiser Sose.

Soros, Hasan, and their handlers should have publically
been hung like pirates years ago.
