Billionaire liberal donor George Soros is the sole contributor to an outside political group financing most of Democrat Matt Dugan’s run for Allegheny County district attorney, a new financial filing shows.
The Pennsylvania Justice and Public Safety PAC listed Mr. Soros as its only donor in a campaign finance report released Tuesday. Based in New York City, the philanthropist, financier and activist has backed progressive candidates in local races for prosecutor across the country, including Philadelphia DA Larry Krasner.
While he is often only one source of funding for groups that in turn help finance candidates, the extent of his support for Mr. Dugan’s campaign — while entirely legal — is less common.
Mr. Soros gave $759,000 to the Pennsylvania-registered PAC on March 27, according to the report filed Friday with the county Elections Division, which covers the group’s activity from March 8 through May 1.

ALL campaign and PAC and other campaign contributions should be capped at 10k/cycle for everyone.

Tick tock, tick tock. Your time is running out, you putrid nazi a-hole.
Too bad his son is being prepared to step right up to where his father will leave off.
Calling Soros a philanthropist is like calling a child molester an advocate for children.
Where are the rich republicans?
Opposition commercial could just be a short 15 seconds of Soros cackling maniacally. AI generated if necessary.
George Soros hates America and all it stands for he let his own people be murdered for his own good and liked the way Hitler operated one rule his.
Soros is actually a euphemism for the Soros foundation that will live long after the evil bastard is worm food.
Philanthropist? That is totally against the meaning of the word.
