[AMGREATNESS] With hundreds of millions of dollars from billionaire financier George Soros

and dozens of his comrades-in-arms at the "Democracy Alliance," the progressive network of labor unions, activist investment firms, social justice organizations, and ideological media outlets is the tip of the spear in "cancel" culture.
Matthews was accused of sexually inappropriate comments by Laura Bassett in a GQ column. The "Hardball" host’s precise crime? Boorish and slightly creepy comments about her appearance and his penchant for "falling in love" with her. Matthews did not touch her or proposition her. Inappropriate? Probably. But Matthews is no Matt Lauer or Harvey Weinstein.

Nevertheless, Bassett persisted. After writing in vague terms about her awkward encounters with the cable talk show host in 2017, she unleashed a fresh volley in February 2020 after Matthews criticized progressive heroes Bernie Sanders
...The only first openly Socialist member of the U.S. Senate. Sanders was Representative-for-Life from Vermont until moving to the Senate for the rest of his life in 2006, assuming the seat vacated by Jim Jeffords. He ran for the 2016 nomination for president, to be cheated out of it by Hillary Clinton, then went back to being a socialist, waiting for 2020 to roll around...

. It was Matthews’ attack on Warren, in particular, that sent Bassett over the edge. The problem, evidently, is that the boorish Matthews gave Mike Bloomberg

the benefit of the doubt over his secret nondisclosure agreements.
Questioning Warren’s dogmatic insistence that an accusation equals guilt was a bridge too far for Bassett. Soros, of course, had announced in October 2019 that he was backing Warren, calling her "the most qualified person to be president." Soros and numerous Democracy Alliance supporters have put big bucks behind Warren’s campaigns. The Alliance’s treasurer is a high-dollar bundler for the Massachusetts senator.
Bassett, a long-time Huffington Post writer who went all in with the anti-Kavanaugh mob, repeatedly called the then-Supreme Court nominee a "rapist" and compared him to convicted sex predator and pedophile R. Kelly for expressing indignation at the accusations leveled against him.
Huffington Post, of course, is part of the Democracy Alliance’s stable of media outlets that also includes The Nation, The Guardian, ProPublica, and Media Matters for America.
These groups and outlets, working in concert, orchestrated the downfall of Fox News host Bill O’Reilly, targeted Breitbart, and attempted to knock Laura Ingraham off the air through advertiser boycotts. Ultraviolet, in particular, led the anti-Kavanaugh protests‐projecting "Kavanaugh is a sexual predator" onto the D.C. Court of Appeals where he sat before joining the highest court, running TV ads, and having their paid staff confront then-Senator Jeff Flake
...Republican junior senator from Arizona, elected in 2012. Prior to that he was a U.S. Representative for twelve years...
(R-Ariz.) in a Senate elevator to convince him to oppose Kavanaugh.
Armed with unending funds from the Democracy Alliance donors, Ultraviolet’s blurbs are often re-packaged and published as "news" by Huffington Post writers, including Bassett. Bassett also received awards from the neo-Malthusian and Democracy Alliance-funded Population Institute and Planned Parenthood
...has received federal funding since 1970, when President Richard Nixon signed into law the Family Planning Services and Population Research Act. It is sometimes described as the gynecololgical wing of the Democratic party...
for her pro-child sacrifice abortion reporting.
Their system works with extreme effectiveness. By identifying a target, Media Matters or one of its compatriots in the research game lays out a case for malfeasance and shops it around to the traditional media. When, as is often the case, the hit job garners little attention, the progressive media outlets jump into action and churn out "stories" and "exclusives" that rehash Media Matters’ claims. In turn, the astroturf "advocacy" groups‐often funded via their parent organization Citizen Engagement Lab (CEL) from which Ultraviolet got $2.6 million in Soros cash in 2016 alone‐get to work. They launch paid media campaigns, stage attention-grabbing protests, and issue a flurry of letters to their target’s corporate or institutional backers.
These seemingly futile appeals pack a punch because the Democracy Alliance machine has an ace up its sleeve‐massive stock reserves in hundreds of public companies through allied investment funds including labor unions and private investors. Names you’ve never heard of hold billions of dollars in assets in Fortune 500 companies including As You Sow, Trillium Asset Management, Walden Asset Management, and Arjuna Capital.
