George Soros, the billionaire globalist who masks his intents to take over sovereign governments in a philanthropist cloak, is ratcheting his progressive lobby efforts in the United States’ Congress.
According to an analysis from the Washington Free Beacon, the Open Society Policy Center, funded by Soros money, has paid out more money in the first few months of 2017 for its lobbyists to conduct business in Washington, D.C., than it did the entire year of 2016.
Prepare for the Republican concessions to Democrats to continue. When it comes to Soros money, the GOP quickly loses its free market mind in favor of funding and Soros-drive socialism.

From the Free Beacon:
The deep-pocketed Democratic financier increased lobbying expenditures on a range of foreign issues, including efforts to oppose laws described as a direct attack on his funding of non-governmental organizations (NGOs) in his native country of Hungary.
The Open Society Policy Center, a D.C.-based nonprofit that focuses on advocacy efforts and is a separate entity from the Soros grant making Open Society Foundations, has spent nearly as much on lobbying in the first half of 2017 as the group did in the entirety of 2016.
The Open Society Policy Center reported spending $4.6 million in the first and second quarters, which runs from Jan. 1 to June 30, according its disclosure forms filed to the House of Representatives and the Senate. The group has three in-house lobbyists who lobby the U.S. Senate, House of Representatives, National Security Council, the Department of Defense, and the Department of State.
Soros drastically extended the policy scope of his lobbying efforts as the year progressed, including to issues that have been seen as a direct strike against the Hungarian-born billionaire.
From January to March, Soros’s group lobbied on three issues. From April to June, the group lobbied 17 different issues, including the Bill on Foreign Funded Organizations in Hungary (LexNGo), Hungary’s crack down on foreign-funded organizations in the country.
Hungary’s parliament approved the law that targets foreign-funded organizations in June, which they have said “can threaten the country’s political and economic interests and interfere with the functioning of its institutions,” according to text of the law.
Although the law does not mention Soros by name, politicians in Hungary previously said they wanted to “sweep out” organizations tied to Soros.
Soros’s Open Society Foundations has given money to a number of prominent NGOs in Hungary. The group has said that the country’s bill “seeks to suppress democratic voices in Hungary.”
The lobbyists also worked on issues such as the Restricting First Use of Nuclear Weapons Act of 2017 and the National Defense Authorization Act for fiscal year 2018, among others.
Soros’s lobbying efforts have quietly skyrocketed in recent years.
The policy center reported spending $19,120,000 on lobbying for policy and legislative efforts with Congress and government agencies between 2002 and 2012, which averages out to $1.9 million per year.
The amount Soros spent on lobbying shot up to $11 million in 2013, a drastic increase from the $3.4 million the group had spent in 2012. The uptick could be attributed to the group’s push for “comprehensive immigration reform” during this time.
The center upped its lobbying expenditures to $12.4 million in 2012. In 2015, the group spent $8.5 million. The amount spent on special interests dipped to $5.6 million in 2016.
Now the group’s lobbying expenditures are trending upwards again. The center is on pace to spend $9.2 million this year. …
The amount the group has spent over the last four and a half years on its lobbying efforts ($41.6 million) is more than double what they had spent during the ten-year period from 2002 to 2012 ($19.1 million).

Money is the fuel that runs congress and that DNS*.
The moneys should be broken down into bribes, kickbacks, obscene perks, lobbyist corruption, foreign payoffs, and such.

Congress wanna bees spend millions for a job that pays a mere just under two hundred thousand.
Within a few years they are fabulously wealthy from bribes, kick backs, obscene perks, fancy limos, lavish cock&tail partees, 
flush with posh jet jaunts, and their favorite freebie – toy boys, toy girlies, and toy its.

Sorros is an evil man a true son of Satan

Do not be afraid when one becomes rich,
When the glory of his house is increased;
For when he dies he shall carry nothing away;
His glory shall not descend after him.
Though while he lives he blesses himself
(For men will praise you when you do well for yourself),
He shall go to the generation of his fathers;
They shall never see light.
A man who is in honor, yet does not understand,
Is like the beasts that perish.
(Psalm 49:16-20 NKJV)

Apparently, Soros has a son who has been groomed to carry on with his father’s nefarious acts after the death of the evil monster.

Those looking for a “collusion” story need look no further than money man Soros. He is the elephant on this safari who is being ignored while time, effort, and money is wasted looking down rabbit holes.

Former Navy SEAL Craig ‘Sawman’ Sawyer warns of ‘gruesome massacre’ if Trump removed from office

In a Facebook post published Friday, Craig “Sawman” Sawyer, a Marine veteran, former Navy SEAL, sniper, combat instructor and the owner of Tactical Insider, warned of a “gruesome massacre” if President Trump is removed from office.
“I’m hearing serious rumblings of a hostile, illegal coup against our democratically elected President by seditious, deep-state subversives funded by Soros & other globalists. Very disturbing,” he wrote, adding:
Patriots, this would be nothing less than an act of war against the American people. It would be the removal of our boldest defender & last possibility of maintaining our protective Constitution. Under the boot of globalists, life as we know it, would immediately decline to the model that suits the globalist interest – Marxist/Socialist/Communist. They get complete control, you get zero. Freedom, Gone! Liberty, Gone! This agenda is evil and simply cannot be allowed, at ANY cost.
Like ALL military, law enforcement and government officials, I took an oath to defend our Constitution against ALL enemies, foreign and domestic. By abandoning the rule of law and conducting a coup against the President & policies WE THE PEOPLE elected, they have made themselves enemies of the United States.
After observing that all patriots, regardless of position, have a duty to protect the Constitution, Sawyer minced no words detailing what he believes would happen to those involved in Trump’s removal and he explained why:
Anti-American subversives involved in ANY WAY in an unconstitutional coup against our President will be run down and executed immediately by the world’s most supreme warriors. There will be nowhere to run to, nowhere to hide, no mercy, no sense of humor. Harsh examples will be made. My prediction is it will be a gruesome massacre. Why? Because one side in this conflict has 8 Trillion bullets & the other side doesn’t know which bathroom to use.
And, he added, it won’t take very long: “It will likely only take a few hours. Lessons will be learned. History will take note. Order restored.”
“Patriots, We The American People stand united as one, against ALL enemies,” he said. “We are peace-loving people who abide by the rule of law. Prepare yourselves in case this ridiculous insanity actually gets played out and the rule of law goes out the window under their gross miscarriage of our legal process. Shaking my head…”
As we reported Friday, actor James Woods warned that a civil war would break out if Democrats like Maxine Waters — who has made it clear she is willing to sacrifice national security to hurt Trump — succeed in removing Donald Trump from office.
Sadly, Democrats aren’t the only ones involved in what many now see as a coup d’etat against Trump. Republicans like Lindsey Graham and John McCain are doing their level best to sabotage Trump.
It should be clear that any attempt to remove Trump from office would result in unrest the likes of which we have not seen in years.
As of this writing, Saywer’s post, which starts with a call to prayer for the nation and the president, has been shared over 400 times.

The world would be a better safer place if Soros died. His “open borders ” bullshit has been soaked up by Trudeau who is colluding with Soros in the destruction of Canada.

Why can’t he be arrested?
Why can’t his citizenship be revoked?
With all the laws that we have on the books I am sure that some attorneys somewhere can come up with at least one law that he has broken. Maybe Muller can find something on Soros rather than Trump.
