Since 2016, George Soros’s Open Society Foundations has given more than $80 million (€68.13 million) to groups that are allegedly tied to terrorism or extremist violence, a new report has claimed.
It comes shortly after sources told journalists that the FBI is investigating leftist groups for possible ties to the killing of Charlie Kirk. The Washington-based Capital Research Center (CRC) that produced this report is also looking into whether Alex Soros, who was handed his father’s multi-billion dollar empire in 2023, will “build on his father’s legacy” or “tear it down.”
The CRC paper states that the evidence behind its claim is “stark” and says it should “form the justification for various accountability actions,” possibly including the revoking of the Open Society Foundations’ tax-exempt status.
Perhaps most significantly, it points to the awarding by Open Society of “at least” $23.27 million (€19.82 million) to seven groups that “directly assist domestic terrorism and criminality on U.S. soil.”
These groups specifically engage in or materially assist violence, property destruction, economic sabotage, harassment, and other criminality that meets the FBI’s definition of domestic terrorism.
The organisation is also said to have given funds to a group that co-authored a pro-Hamas guide glorifying October 7th.
Another report released earlier this year put Soros’ foundation under fire for allegedly financially supported groups—based in Europe, the U.S. and the Middle East—with ties to the Muslim Brotherhood and other Islamist networks. Funding reportedly exceeded $1 million (€0.85 million) per group in some cases.
American conservative commentator Glenn Beck said these latest revelations should serve as “the smoking gun Trump can use to go after George Soros’ network on RICO [anti-corruption] charges.”
