The big election winner is George Soros.
One might ask how a Ugandan-born, 34-year-old Muslim socialist came out of the blue and was elected New York City mayor. It’s not far-fetched when one considers massively-Soros-funded institutions like the Working Families Party that created and nurtured his rise, as recently detailed by NLPC’s Carl Horowitz.
Of course, Soros’s ambitions reach far beyond New York City, and his money is carrying America across a dangerous new threshold.
In the wake of the anti-Trump “No Kings” protests of October 18, one of its primary organizers, Ezra Levin, announced the launch of the “No Kings Alliance,” an initiative to channel the protest energy into ongoing activism. In doing so, Levin confirmed the leadership role of his group, Indivisible, and the central role of Soros money, to the movement.
Indivisible has been the recipient of $7.6 million from the Open Society Foundations (OSF), funded by Soros. Significantly, OSF appears to have provided the cornerstone grant in 2017 that allowed Indivisible to get off the ground.
Indivisible’s communications hammer the “peaceful” nature of their events ad nauseam—to the point of protesting too much. While the group was quick to condemn the murder of Charlie Kirk, the assassination did nothing to curb the inflammatory messaging of both ‘No Kings’ organizers and participants aimed at Trump and Republicans as a group. They are still “fascists” and “authoritarians.”
The hard left recognizes the Trump years as an opportunity. It is not just about opposing Trump. More importantly, it’s about capturing control of what’s left of “liberalism” and ultimately, the Democratic Party.
Indivisible presents itself as part of a broad coalition of more than 200 groups, but it apparently has no enemies on the left. The Communist Party USA (CPUSA) was an official partner and endorser of the October 18 protests, as it was in previous rounds of demonstrations. CPUSA co-sponsored events in multiple locations, including New York City, and its emblem appeared on promotional materials alongside Indivisible.
Violence lurks in the Marxist-Leninist DNA. Shockingly, polls revealed that 28% of Democrats believed America would have been better off if Trump had been assassinated in last year’s attempts, with 24% unsure. For a sizable chunk of the public, who have marinated in the kind of extremism and hatred so prevalent on college campuses, acceptance of violence has gone mainstream.
Look no further than Virginia’s attorney general race for proof. Democrat Jay Jones suggested putting “a bullet to the head” of a Republican rival in texts—yet no statewide Democrat official, not even gubernatorial candidate Abigail Spanberger, demanded that he quit the ticket. Democratic voters weren’t bothered, either. Astonishingly, Jones won.
In an email the morning after the election, Indivisible crowed about the electoral “trifecta” win in Virginia that included Jones. No enemies on the left.
In the protests that followed George Floyd’s death in 2020, twenty-five people were killed, injuries were inflicted on 2,000 police officers, and property damage was between one and two billion dollars. Yet very few rioters were convicted of criminal acts, as Democratic politicians rationalized and encouraged the mayhem. For the left, it was a dress rehearsal for the actual revolution of which they dream.
What will be the trigger for the next round of violence? It is impossible to predict, but Western economies are long overdue for a crash. Learning nothing for the last one in 2008-2009, governments have subsequently dug a deep hole of debt. At some point, there will not be enough buyers of government bonds and yields will blow out. Governments will print money, inflating currencies and evaporating savings. It could be this, or some other crisis, that sends people into the streets.
The left will be ready to capitalize by instigating widespread violence.
