This is the life of a lie.
Three weeks ago, a caravan of Hondurans began walking nearly 2,000 miles to the United States. Their ranks grew as they inched north and, along with them, falsehoods grew, too. But one stands out: a conspiracy theory that liberal billionaire George Soros, a Jewish immigrant, is paying the migrants to make the journey – or even orchestrating it.
Members of Congress and the president’s son both repeated it. Conservative celebrities, too.
It also may have resonated in darker places. Cesar Sayoc, the man charged with mailing pipe bombs to Soros and other prominent critics of President Donald Trump, dwelled at length online about conspiracy theories involving the Hungarian-American philanthropist. Robert Bowers, charged with killing 11 people worshiping in a Pittsburgh synagogue on Saturday, used his social media accounts to post extensively about the caravan, including circulating an image of refugees in Guatemala purportedly climbing into a truck with a Star of David on the side.
But it began with a handful of posts in the caravan’s early days.
One of the first was from a North Carolina writer who goes by the screen name “lorettatheprole.” Loretta Malakie has more than 6,000 followers on Twitter, to whom she directs frequent posts about “white genocide,” Jews and the “invading force” approaching the border.
On Oct. 14, Malakie posted a link to an article about the caravan, with a single word of commentary: “Soros.”

Ok then you media morons, do your job! WHO IS BEHIND IT THEN????
It’s not “spontaneous” we’re not FREAKIN STUPID!!!!!
Ok, so 3 of Soros’ cutout companies are funding it then. Whoa!!! That’s just too hard for us Mericans to keep up with!
They must think the average American is as stupid as Katie Couric.
Jewish in name only, like Harvey Weinstein.
Soros is the kind of cat who operates best from the shadows. If people are actually paying attention and talking about him, it becomes much harder for him to pull his shenanigans.
It’s splitting hairs. Soros puts money into everything he can to achieve his ultimate goals. The U.S. election and this caravan circus have his filthy fingers all over it.
Billion dollar question
“All this ink (electrons) and they never tell us WHO is funding the caravan.”
The MSM does NOT want to ask who is paying for the chowlines set up every day for thousands.
Or who is providing toliet paper, shoes , etc etc for thousands
How do these people charge their Iphones?
If we let even one in we are idiots.
Cesar Sayoc was making bomb threats years ago, way back in August of 2002...Sayoc called Florida Power & Light and threatened to blow them up.
Was Trump connected to that bomb threat too? Or is the author of this simply FOS?
bingo! Why would the MSM waste time defending George Soros (they don't care about Soros or his reputation) if election impacting alarm bells weren't going off.
And fund - through various groups to hide his connections.
I’m surprised that the left is defending someone who is so obviously a low life dirt bag interfering where he can. A white billionaire at that that took tens of millions out of his hedge fund.
Anyhow, I sort of fast read the article but nowhere did it seem to substantiate how the claims about Soros are lies.
