Open Society Foundations, the grant-making nonprofit founded by billionaire George Soros and used to control most of the assets managed by the family's $25 billion office, is planning to cut at least 40% of its staff in upcoming months.

The move comes after Soros, 92, confirmed last month that he had handed over control of his company to his son Alex, Bloomberg News reported Friday.

A spokesman for the charity said its board has approved "significant changes" to its operating model, including a "substantial reduction in headcount of no less than 40% globally.

Soros’ group has the Democrat Party and most of the media working for them for free so maybe they don’t need so many people on staff.

That’s good, but will it help? the decrepit bag of weasel offal has been using his money to destroy Western Civilization and his son shows every sign of continuing to use the money for the same purpose.

Certainly a good sign but this could just be a sign that the son is cheap.

which at the end of 2021 had more than 500 employees


So they cut employees down to 300.

All that means it business is contracted out with grants.

But to get the grants, the decision making is consolidated/centralized.

Thus they will be working with fewer/larger grantees. And with this, they have more power over money recipients.

For example. The govt would rather deal with 100 large farms than 1,000 small farms.

They have to keep the election fraud team fully in place, though.

This should produce a gold mine of whistleblowers.

Maybe James O’Keefe and John Solomon are on the case.

If CONservatives were smart, they would contact as many of those laid off as possible, to pick their brains. Give them money to spill the beans. Get an idea of their SOP and MO. Their MOD, if you will...

But CONServatives are stupid and weak and retarded and cowardly and incompetent...Use code FIGHT (but don't really fight) for 20% off at our store!

My guess is that solomon won't record any of it, like he didn't record a F-ING GOLD MINEphone call with Joe Biden. Another CONservative nice guy who can't finish the job...

I hope someone will be watching where these former employees go to work next, this has all the markings of the next step in a plan.
