The Daily Signal - Are Soros’ Money and Influence Starting to Dwindle?

“I’m Sorry, Dave.”


It's not that George Soros was born in 2008 but he became part of the political zeitgeist that year as we learned about how he helped raise a fortune for the Presidential aspirations of a young Senator from Illinois named Barrack. 


Ever since then the specter of Soros and his money has hung over every discussion about democracy in the United States. Last year he announced that he was stepping back from the day-to-day operations in favor of his son Alex, who he calls far more politically active than he ever was, taking over. The fear in Conservative circles was that a more politically aggressive, more targeted Soros organization at Open society would be harder to even keep up with, never mind defeat.


The Soros organization is the key pole underneath the tent of a fundraising machine called  Arabella Advisors. They are a philanthropic consulting company that oversees a handful of nonprofits, all of which oversee a multitude of left-leaning projects and organizations. When accounting for the seven nonprofits in the Arabella Network, they provided nearly $1 billion in grants in 2023 alone. 


One group that has done an exquisite job all the way to the point of publishing a book on who Arabella Advisors are is the Capital Research Center. Kristen Eastlake, Senior Vice President of the CRC sits down with us at the State Policy Network annual meeting to tell us breaking news that George and more importantly Alex Soros may not have the money they used to have.

Newshour - Thailand’s prime minister removed from office

Thailand's Constitutional Court has removed the prime minister, Paetongtarn Shinawatra, over her handling of a border dispute with Cambodia. We hear reaction from her party, and also ask what the news tells us about the country's turbulent politics.

Also in the programme: why many small businesses around the world are now unable to send parcels to the US; and we report on how a group of Rohingya refugees were deported and left in the sea by the Indian authorities.
