DeSantis Raises Alarm Over Soros-Backed Buyout of Hispanic Radio
The Washington Free Beacon ^ | June 7, 2022 | Elizabeth Troutman

Posted on 06/08/2022 9:05:57 AM PDT by Tolerance Sucks Rocks

Florida governor Ron DeSantis (R.) is taking out a Spanish-language radio ad to warn voters about a George Soros-backed company's purchase of Hispanic radio stations in Miami in order to "infiltrate" the state with leftist ideology.

"Warning, voters! The Left is taking control of our local media," reads an English translation of the DeSantis campaign's ad, which will run on stations set to be acquired by a conglomerate financed by the left-wing billionaire. "George Soros, known for financing extreme leftist causes, is now financing the purchase of Hispanic radio stations right here in Miami."

The Latino Media Network, backed by Soros's Lakestar Finance, last week agreed to purchase 18 Hispanic radio stations across the country, including the conservative Radio Mambi in Miami. The acquisitions by the conglomerate, which is led by Democrats and left-wing activists, come amid increasing concerns within the Democratic Party about Republicans winning over Latino voters.

"The Soros-funded radical Left is running a scheme to manipulate local media in Florida to push their Marxist agenda on voters," DeSantis said in a tweet promoting his ad. "In Florida, we reject the professional Left and their attempt to infiltrate our state and will always stand for truth and freedom."

DeSantis has been such a good governor for Florida, that I would only accept your proposition if he promised as President to extradite Soros to one of the countries with pending criminal charges against him.

George Soros is the scum of the earth...

Soros is the man behind 'progressive prosecutors' who let criminal out of jail before their victims are out of the hospital. San Francisco got rid of one - there are more.

STOP WHITE LIBERAL 'ELITE' FILTH. STOP GEORGE SOROS

I think he should look through the text of the sale contract and see if there is anything civilly or criminally actionable under Florida law. Just another way to play Rollerball with the Left.

Good for DeSantis to sound the alarm. He is a fighter. Other GOP governors would have just taken it in the chin (looking at you milquetoast Pence) and said nothing.

We cannot allow Leftist, Marxist or Islamist from infiltrating our institutions. Say NO to Sharia Law loving Mohammed Oz in Pennsylvania. Vote third party, instead.

The quality of a representative government will never exceed the quality of the press.

"Warning, voters! The Left is taking control of our local media

Deep state runs the media. The media is de facto the communications division for deep state.

Soros transferred most of his billions to his Open Society Foundation (charity), so there will be little to no taxes and we will be feeling his money for decades to come.

I like DeSantis’ attention to things that matter.

Silencing an anti-Communist radio station would be par for
the course.

You know, we need people on our side to start combating
things like this. Don’t let it happen.

Okay....THAT makes sense, and, I agree, completely.

(Sorry....I couldn’t quite make out your earlier post :)

And.....they are ALL on EBT/WIC free medical/education/housing, etc.

Even their elderly parents have now come over, for many.

Talk about ‘non-sustainable’.

Is he up this year? If so I'll wager that Rat Party Headquarters will spend many millions to rough him up...if not to actually defeat him.
