George Soros 'didn’t want to create an employment agency,' his son says George Soros was "very upset" by the massive number of employees and "amount of bureaucracy" at his liberal nonprofit, the Open Society Foundations, according to the Democratic megadonor’s son. Alex Soros, the 39-year-old son of the 94-year-old hedge fund billionaire, told the Financial Times his "only regret" since taking over Open Society Foundations several years ago is that he didn’t slash the nonprofit’s workforce sooner. "My father didn’t want to create an employment agency, he wanted to create a network of networks and he was very upset with...

Some of you need to cease the denial and accept the harsh reality that the left hates you. It’s a fact, as much as the liberal gaslight gang and the conserva-sissy weakhearts deny it. You can tell that leftists hate you by the way that leftists tell you that they hate you.Take Sarah Jeong, please – hey, the New York Times was happy to get this bitter creep onboard because of her history of virulent racism.

Billionaire George Soros generally does not hide the fact that he uses the considerable funds at his disposal to support his extremist, leftist ideals.

But you also should expect clean fights -- no biting, no spitting, no hitting below the belt. Whatever else divides us, we all value free speech and edifying debate, right? Not exactly. Leftwing “activists” -- often posing as journalists – have a habit of targeting and trolling those who deviate from the “politically correct” line.

Soros, 86, is worth an estimated $25 billion. His Open Society Institute is one of ICIJ’s main funders, granting it $1.5 million last year. The Panama Papers data reveals only the tip of Soros' offshore iceberg, the Quantum Group of Funds. The ICIJ’s leader, journalist Gerard Ryle, said he had not noticed Soros’ companies in the Offshore Leaks database until FoxNews.com called the matter to his attention. “I suspect we would have more information [on Soros] because the public database … does not contain the underlying data,” Ryle said in an email FoxNews.com. FoxNews.com has requested access to that data....
