George Soros has funneled staggering $103M into midterms ...
Gabrielle Fahmy · 2026-06-28 · via New York Post

Billionaire Democratic kingmaker George Soros spent a staggering $102.8 million in the midterm election cycle — reportedly making him the largest individual donor to date and chief architect of the party’s seismic shift toward the radical left.

With the November elections still more than four months away, Soros could shatter his own spending record of $128 million set during the last midterms four years ago, when he was the biggest single donor.

“Money talks, and Soros money says the most insidious, unconstitutional, costly tax hikes in American history are on the table,” said Douglas Kellogg, state projects director for Americans for Tax Reform.

Soros is a “wannabe Bond villain,” responsible for the radical takeover of the Democratic Party, he added.

Only a fraction of this cycle’s contributions — $793,800 — were made in the 95-year-old mega donor’s name, a review of publicly available Federal Election Commission data reveals.

Almost all of the money — $102 million — was funneled through the Democracy Political Action Committee, the super PAC Soros launched in 2020, which acts as the family’s main political arm, obfuscating efforts to know which radical candidates the clan is propping up.

And that’s without counting the family’s main organization, the Open Society Foundation — which funds efforts to decriminalize drugs, open the border and abolish the police — and its lobbying wing the Open Society Action Fund, which is even more obscure as it doesn’t have to disclose political spending because it’s registered as a nonprofit claiming to do mere advocacy work.

In previous election cycles, the Open Society Action Fund’s cash flowed to groups backing lefty stars like “Squad” Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) and embattled pal Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN), but its tax filings for 2025 aren’t yet available.

Control of the dark money Democracy PAC where the bulk of the family’s money went changed before the 2024 presidential election, with the elder Soros handing over the reins of his empire to his “more political” son Alex Soros, the fourth of five children.

“He wants to be more political than his dad, this is the first midterm cycle where he is in control,” Parker Thayer, investigative researcher at Capital Research Center, told The Post.

“George is not in control, he hasn’t been in control in some time.”

Donations made in the elder and younger Soros’ names were largely in step this cycle, backing many of the same left-wing candidates — with Alex Soros personally adding another $140,525 to the family’s midterm push.

Alex Soros, 40, sent a maximum contribution of $7,000 to radical leftist Maine senatorial candidate Graham Platner, who’s been accused of misconduct towards women, bragging about his Nazi tattoo and regularly slams the rich — despite his own wealthy upbringing and lining his pockets with billionaire money. He’s denied wrongdoing and claimed he didn’t know what the tattoo meant.

The fat cat’s spawn also maxed out donations to Jimmy Choo-wearing Omar, who’s been slammed for allegedly knowing about the widespread fraud involving the Somali community in her Minneapolis district. Omar has denied wrongdoing.

In all, the Soros’ have already poured an eye-watering 52% more into the family political slush fund than in 2024, when they channeled $67 million into the Democracy PAC, according to campaign filings.

George Soros, who President Trump singled out in September when he ordered the FBI to crack down on “left-wing terrorism,” has been the driving force behind extremist campaigns in the United States and abroad.

He pumped more than $15 million into pro-Hamas organizations behind campus protests, funded groups supplying last month’s violent anti-ICE protestors at Delaney Hall with military gear and spent more than $7 million pushing for a litany of soft on crime bills that could spring Gotham’s worst killers like notorious “Son of Sam.”

“The Soros family is angrier than ever at American politics,” said Thayer. “They would prefer to remake America into something entirely different.”

The family’s grant network has denied it’s a terrorist organization, insisting its mission is to strengthen democracy.

Just like his progeny, the Soros patriarch also gave a maximum contribution to Platner, and both father and son handed $7,000 each to Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA), who last month admitted to sneaking oil into Cuba despite the US blockade.

“There are two guarantees in life — death and George Soros writing a blank check for Democrats,” lambasted Republican National Committee Spokeswoman Delanie Bomar.

“They don’t have the cash or resources that Republicans have, which is why they are turning to antisemitic dark money from a billionaire.”

George Soros’ contributions make him the single largest individual donor in the 2026 midterm election cycle, a Washington Post analysis that looked at 49 other donors found.

Soros, born in Budapest to a Jewish family, moved to the United Kingdom after surviving the Nazi occupation of Hungary, and set up his first hedge fund, becoming known as “the man who broke the Bank of England” for making a profit of $1 billion shorting the pound during 1992’s “Black Wednesday.”

His native Hungary passed “Stop Soros” laws in 2018, forcing the magnate to move his Open Society Foundation’s European operations elsewhere.

His son Alex, a New York University graduate, was a longtime bachelor before marrying Former Hillary Clinton aide Huma Abedin in a glamorous Hamptons wedding last summer, where A-list guests included famed Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour, the Obamas and the Clintons.
