DNC Chair Candidate Reveals Massive Donations from George Soros, Reid Hoffman on Eve of Vote
February 1, 2025
[FreeBeacon] Donations from Soros and Hoffman accounted for 70% of Wikler's funds in DNC chair race
It didn’t do him any good to sell his soul, though — Ken Martin won the top spot by 100 votes.
Ben Wikler’s campaign to lead the Democratic National Committee has been largely funded by Democratic megadonors Reid Hoffman and George Soros
...either Ernst Stavro Blofeld or Auric Goldfinger come true. Maybe both....
, according to campaign finance filings Wikler filed hours before Democrats
...every time you hear the phrase white people, white supremacy, white anything but paint, you're listening to a Democrat. Ask him/her/it to reimagine something for you; they do that a lot, though not well. They can hear a dog whistle a mile or two away. They invented the spoils system and Tammany Hall, and inspired the addition of the word (Thomas) Nasty to the English language. They want to stop continental drift and repeal the law of unintended side effects...
will cast their votes for the next DNC (If you're white you ain't right!)
...Democrat National Committee, where all those off-the-wall talking points originate...
chairman.
I thought Soros son Alex Soros took over managing his father’s “charity”, Open Society Foundations, as well as the Soros Fund Management on the investment side. Does Dad still dabble a bit, just to keep his mind active? Or is this, perhaps, a sign that Alex is no longer the golden boy after his money did not prevent the Democrats from losing the last election?
Hoffman, a former associate of pedophile Jeffrey Want Some Candy, Little Girl? Epstein
...A high class pimp financier who was alleged to maintain a stable of underage whores sex slaves who were paid big bucks to entertain the rich and/or famous. He was really surprised when he commited suiciede in jail...
, contributed $250,000 to Wikler’s political action committee, Forward PAC, on Dec. 4, according to filings with the Federal Election Commission. Soros’s Democracy PAC gave $250,000 to Wikler’s committee on Dec. 2, records show.

Those contributions account for nearly 70 percent of the campaign funds to Wikler, the chairman of the Wisconsin Democratic Party.

The disclosure comes just hours before 448 Democratic National Committee members cast their votes at a meeting in National Harbor, Maryland, to elect the next party leader. Wikler, 43, is considered a frontrunner in the race alongside Ken Martin, the head of the Minnesota Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party.

Wikler’s ties to Democratic Party megadonors have already proved a liability, though it was not clear until now just how heavily he relied on them for his campaign. Jeff Weaver, the former campaign manager for democratic socialist 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 an Independent socialist, waiting for 2020 to roll around...
, has publicly opposed Wikler because of his affiliation with Hoffman, the co-founder of LinkedIn. Martin, the Minnesota Democratic Party leader, has called out Wikler during several DNC events over his relationship with Hoffman.

Former Maryland Gov. Martin O’Malley, another DNC candidate, called on Wikler and others to disclose their campaign donors last week, though all declined to do so, Politico reported.

Liberal Democrats’ beef with Hoffman has little to do with the billionaire’s well-established ties to Jeffrey Epstein or his funding for deceptive campaign tactics in the 2017 Alabama senate race. Instead, they object to Hoffman’s efforts last year to pressure Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris
launched her campaign on the “RuPaul’s Drag Race”
to fire Lina Khan, the former head of the Federal Trade Commission. Hoffman asserted last July that Khan was "waging a war on American business" through anti-merger actions and said he hoped that Harris would "replace her."

Wikler and Martin have both landed notable endorsements in the DNC race. Sen. Chuck Schumer
...Senator-for-life from New York, renowned for his love of standing in front of cameras and microphones. Schumer has been a professional politician since 1975, when disco was in flower, which is 49.16621 years. Senate minority leader as of 2017...
(N.Y.) and Rep. Nancy San Fran Nan Pelosi
Congresswoman-for-Life from the San Francisco Bay Area, born into a family of professional politicians. On-again-off-again Speaker of the House. It's not her fault when they lose, but it's her accomplishment when they win. Noted for her heavily botoxed grimace and occasional senior... uhhh... moments...
(Calif.) have endorsed Wikler. But Martin boasts more public endorsements from DNC members and is considered the progressive wing’s preferred choice.

Both have embraced controversial positions that could prove liabilities should they take over the DNC. As head of the Wisconsin Democratic Party, he oversaw a vote in which party members voted against a resolution to condemn Hamas
..always the voice of sweet reason...
for its terrorist attack on Israel on Oct. 7, 2023. As chairman, the Wisconsin Democrats approved a platform that called itself the "party of DEI."

Martin has called for President Donald Trump
...Oh, noze! Not him!...
to be put on trial for treason, a charge that calls for the death penalty
, based on a debunked news report that Trump ignored intelligence briefings that Russia paid bounties to the Taliban
...Arabic for students...
to attack American troops in Afghanistan.

#1 

Given everything we have seen, read and the political receivers and the donor himself has admitted to. Hasn't George Soros broken US Campaign Finance laws?

Campaigns are prohibited from accepting contributions from certain types of organizations and individuals. These prohibited sources are:

Corporations, including nonprofit corporations
Labor organizations
Federal government contractors
Contributions in the name of another
Foreign nationals


Understanding it might be difficult to find a DA not already on the take.

So when will he be indicted?

#2 George Soros became an American citizen in 1961, NN2N1. While I can’t speak to the rest of that list, I suspect that his donation pattern is immoral rather than strictly illegal, just like his investments.
