George Soros and his fellow deep-pocket funders of the Democratic Party and left-wing causes gathered with a lineup of party activists and luminaries from Hollywood, K Street, and Wall Street for a three-day “investment conference” (November 15-17) at the luxurious Mandarin Oriental Hotel in Washington, D.C....

Financial Investment Corporation and Apax Partners, along with subsidiary Bonterra, gained control over significant portions of the American left’s get-out-the-vote and funding infrastructure.

Just before that, in 2020, a subsidiary of the...
