Leftwing billionaire succeeded in installing more radical DAs in Iowa, Maine, Texas
Throughout the Biden presidency, Americans have been deluged with alarming news reports of “Soros district attorneys” causing an explosion in violent crime in major U.S. cities, due to their radical “criminal justice reform” practices of emptying prisons and refusing to prosecute criminals. So, many will be alarmed to learn that, though not covered by most news reporting on Tuesday’s midterm elections, district attorneys funded by billionaire leftist George Soros swept elections in at least three states, Iowa, Maine and Texas.
According to an analysis by Fox News Digital, which conducted a search of campaign-finance databases to determine which DA candidates had been funded by Soros, a minimum of four Soros candidates prevailed on Tuesday.
As the Fox report revealed: “Soros' district attorney operation involves his longtime treasurer, Whitney Tymas, establishing ‘pop-up’ political action committees in states where he targets the prosecutor races. Once set up, the financier injects money into the PACs, which tend to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars backing his preferred candidates. The PACs typically dissolve after the elections.”
Noting that some of Tymas committees are established on the city level, like the one in Philadelphia that has supported notorious District Attorney Larry Krasner, Fox noted that its investigation encompassed only state databases, which means there could be even more Soros DAs that will soon take office.
Beyond Philadelphia’s Krasner, other Soros-backed DAs that have dominated news reports in recent months include Kim Foxx in Chicago, Chesa Boudin in San Francisco, George Gascon in Los Angeles, Marilyn Mosby in Baltimore, and Kim Gardner in St. Louis.
One of the newcomer Soros prosecutors elected this week was Kimberly Graham in Iowa, who received more than $300,000 of Soros money to win her primary contest in Polk County. Up against GOP attorney Allan Richards this week, she won by almost 14 percentage points.
Soros also donated $300,000 to the Maine Justice & Public Safety PAC in May, reported Fox News Digital, money in turn directed to Jackie Sartoris, who prevailed over Cumberland County's Democratic district attorney Jonathan Sahrbeck in last June’s primary. Since there was no GOP or independent candidate running against her in the general election, Sartoris easily won.
Soros also invested hundreds of thousands to support Bexar County, Texas District Attorney Joe Gonzalez as well as Dallas County DA John Creuzot. Each of them had been helped previously by Soros in obtaining their office. Gonzalez beat GOP candidate Marc LaHood, and Creuzot prevailed against his Republican opponent, Faith Johnson, by 20 percentage points.
In addition to radical prosecutors, Soros also funds extensive efforts to “defund the police” – the other reason many cite for America’s explosion in violent crime and chaos. For example, his nonprofit Open Society Policy Center donated $500,000 to the effort last year to "dismantle" and replace the...

This insanity has to stop!! Our "Elections" have evidently turned into AUCTIONS or outright VOTE BUYING! I have posted on several articles that we need Election Funding Reform! The ONLY people who should be able to DONATE to a candidate are the people DIRECTLY affected by that office! City office = CITY residents! County office = COUNTY residents!! Congressional Districts = DISTRICT residents!! State offices = STATE residents!! National offices = US INDIVIDUAL CITIZENS ONLY!! NO PACS should be allowed to FUND ANY candidate! I was under the impression that was already the law, but evidently not! Also, the LIMIT for donating should be reflected in EQUITY!! That's the DEMOcrats' buzzword and goal, so why do rich BILLIONAIRES get to BUY politicians when us regular folks cannot afford one??? Set the limit to what an AVERAGE EQUITY PERSON could afford - probably no more than $250 per year - TOTAL!! Put the politicians back on the streets where they belong!
