Trump claims Soros and associates are paying protesters, suggesting it goes beyond free speech into coordinated, destabilizing actions on U.S. soil.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"805\" data-end=\"1136\">This marks Trump\u2019s most aggressive stance yet against Soros, a longtime Democratic donor and frequent conservative target. Trump had previously hinted at this approach on\u00a0<em data-start=\"976\" data-end=\"990\">Truth Social<\/em>, accusing Soros and his son of financing \u201cviolent protests\u201d and \u201cripping America apart,\u201d calling them \u201cpsychopaths\u201d and threatening legal action.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1138\" data-end=\"1488\">In response, Soros\u2019 philanthropic network, the\u00a0<strong data-start=\"1185\" data-end=\"1213\">Open Society Foundations<\/strong>, denied the claims, stating they do not fund or support violent protests. They called the threats of prosecution \u201coutrageous.\u201d Soros, 94, has funded progressive causes for decades; his son Alex Soros now chairs the foundation and has become more publicly active in politics.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1490\" data-end=\"1819\">Trump tied the proposed investigation to the\u00a0<strong data-start=\"1535\" data-end=\"1590\">assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk<\/strong>, who was shot during a campus event in Utah. Trump called the killing \u201cpolitical violence at its worst,\u201d pledging to hold accountable not just the killer, but any networks or individuals indirectly supporting political violence.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1821\" data-end=\"2149\">As Trump ramps up his law-and-order messaging ahead of the\u00a0<strong data-start=\"1880\" data-end=\"1897\">2026 midterms<\/strong>, he is targeting wealthy liberal donors and protest networks. While Trump allies argue RICO could apply if financial support for violent protest is proven, the Justice Department has not confirmed whether a formal investigation into Soros is underway.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>President Donald Trump announced on Friday that his administration will investigate billionaire George Soros and his family for possible\u00a0RICO (racketeering)\u00a0charges, alleging they may be involved in funding&#8230; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":253,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-252","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.5 -
