Billionaire heiress Elizabeth Simons is pouring hundreds of thousands of dollars into the Democratic Party’s campaign to retake the House — even as she bankrolls the socialist causes and candidates that have Democrats’ establishment leaders increasingly on edge.
Simons, who previously cut a $250,000 check to a super PAC backing Mayor Zohran Mamdani, has donated $354,000 to the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee — the party’s chief House campaign arm — and thousands more to individual House candidates this election cycle.
The donations, ironically, put Simons behind the same Democratic leadership forces trying to prevent the party’s increasingly powerful progressive wing from taking over
***
The DCCC is headed by Rep. Suzan DelBene (D-Wash.), a member of the party’s centrist New Democrat Coalition, which is the under guidance of House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, who is positioned to take power if Dems snatch back the House. Republicans rule by a narrow 218-212 majority.
Simons is hardly a conventional Democratic establishment donor — she has has poured millions into progressive education initiatives while backing candidates like Mamdani.
Simons is chairwoman of the board of directors of the Heising-Simons Foundation, which she co-founded with her husband, Mark Heising. Her father James Simons founded the hedge fund Renaissance Technologies, and was worth an estimated $31.4 billion at the time of his death in 2024.
Last August, she cut her quarter million dollar dollar check to New Yorkers for Lower Costs, which made it the largest contribution to the group backing democratic socialist Mamdani’s bid against former Gov. Andrew Cuomo.
Her “woke math” support came in the form of $1.7 million in contributions by the foundation to the Racial Justice in Early Mathematics Project at Chicago’s Erikson

Liberal Jewish Women
TDS can get pricey.
Takes a lot of money to convince people to vote for commies.
Is this “a Jew” really necessary? Do you think they all have some super-secret communication hotline?
That said, she’s a big city heiress. Foundations are famous for getting chummy and captured by the causes they fund. Of course her priorities will be messed up.
Her father, James Simons, was a mathemetician. He came as close to anyone as “beating the market.” His returns far outpaced Warren Buffet’s.
Both these people are crazy in my opinion,to have backed the candidates they did.
Yes, it is noteworthy when a Jewish person supports a Muslim politician who wants to destroy America and who hates Jews.
Do you think they all have some super-secret communication hotline?

Looks like the Seattle mayor and the German girl. Autism?
Liberal Jews hate Whites, Christians, Western civilization more than they like themselves.
All communists of the Jewish persuasion?
ALL certainly in favor of their Chosen Islamic agenda!
Crazy eyes and certainly self-destructive.
Self-hating Mieskeit
That is a wonderful example of the logical fallacy Secundum quid et simpliciter
Try harder.
She is the reason why dimmer switches were invented.
It seems that those who are most committed to subjugating thecworld into socialism and eliminating Europeans are Jews. Thats an unavoidable observation.
Some of it is because irreligious people, who still religiously inclined will be attracted to sicialism.
Some of it may be Jews trying to fulfill their mandate of being the chosen people by their hand. This would explain their actions towards Europe and trying to bring it down.
If we cannot discuss this, than millions die. I think it is important to try and develop an accurate picture as to what is happening and why.
We have far more money than the members of New Axis of Evil Democrats communists and Muslims that all hate God hate America and hates us. They must never be in charge of us.
bkmk.
Thank you.
Well there is a pattern.
We need to look at all patterns.
no it is not a coincidence, some people of Jewish descent suffer from “Jewish Suicide Syndrome” ...it is like Stockholm Syndrome (Patty Hearst case) ... the internalization of external antisemitism and historic persecution, etc
Soroz of course does NOT identify as Jewish. Rather, he identifies openly as an atheist. One who worked with the invading Nazis in his native Hungary helping them steal the possessions of Jews they sent to the murder factories.
Soroz was asked in interview a few years ago if he had any regrets for working with the Nazis, he said no.
Simon lady I do not know about, sorry.
so can’t comment about her.
