You can’t make this stuff up. We are funding the black hand.
Our government is so huge, our taxes so burdensome, that we have lost control – we, the people, have lost control. We fund terrorists, we fund seditious universities, we fund the single most evil human being on the planet – George Soros.

Judicial Watch Sues State Department and USAID for Records about Funding and Political Activities of George Soros’ Open Society Foundation – Macedonia
USAID website reports it gave $4,819,125 in taxpayer money to Soros’s Open Society Foundation – Macedonia between from 2012 to 2016
(Judicial Watch – Washington, DC) – Judicial Watch announced today that it filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit against the Department of State and the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) for records and communications relating to the funding and political activities of the Open Society Foundation – Macedonia. The Macedonia organization, part of George Soros’ Open Society Foundations, received nearly $5 million from USAID from 2012 to 2016. The lawsuit was filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia (Judicial Watch v. U.S. Department of State and the U.S. Agency for International Development (No. 1:17-cv-00729)).
The suit was filed after both the U.S. Department of State and USAID failed to respond to a February 16, 2017, FOIA request seeking:
- All records related to any grants, contracts, or disbursements of funds by the Department of State to the Open Society Foundation – Macedonia and/or any of the Foundation’s subsidiaries. This request includes all related requests for funding, payment authorizations, or similar records, as well as all related records of communication between any official, employee, or representative of the Department of State and any official, employee, or representative of the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID).
- Any records of communication between any official, employee, or representative of the Department of State and any officer, employee, or representative of the Open Society Foundation -Macedonia and/or any of the Foundation’s affiliated organizations. This request includes responsive records of communication sent from or directed to U.S. Ambassador to Macedonia Jess L. Baily.
- All analyses or similar records regarding the political activities of the Open Society Foundation -Macedonia and/or any of the Foundation’s affiliated organizations.
- All messages transmitted via the State Department’s SMART system sent from any U.S. Government employee or contractor operating under the Chief of Mission’s authority at the U.S. Embassy in Skopje that pertain to the Open Society Foundation – Macedonia and/or any of the Foundation’s affiliated organizations.
The USAID website reports that between February 27, 2012, and August 31, 2016, USAID gave $4,819,125 in taxpayer money to Soros’s Open Society Foundation – Macedonia (FOSM), in partnership with four local civil society organizations. The USAID’s website links to www.soros.org.mk, and says the project trained hundreds of young Macedonians “on topics such as freedom of association, youth policies, citizen initiatives, persuasive argumentation and use of new media.”
In February, Judicial Watch reported:
The U.S. government has quietly spent millions of taxpayer dollars to destabilize the democratically elected, center-right government in Macedonia by colluding with leftwing billionaire philanthropist George Soros, records obtained by Judicial Watch show. Barack Obama’s U.S. Ambassador to Macedonia, Jess L. Baily, has worked behind the scenes with Soros’ Open Society Foundation to funnel large sums of American dollars for the cause, constituting an interference of the U.S. Ambassador in domestic political affairs in violation of the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations.
***
Here’s how the clandestine operation functions, according to high-level sources in Macedonia and the U.S. that have provided Judicial Watch with records as part of an ongoing investigation. The Open Society Foundation has established and funded dozens of leftwing, nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) in Macedonia to overthrow the conservative government. One Macedonian government official interviewed by Judicial Watch in Washington D.C. recently, calls it the “Soros infantry.” The groups organize youth movements, create influential media outlets and organize violent protests to undermine the institutions and policies implemented by the government. One of the Soros’ groups funded the translation and publication of Saul Alinsky’s “Rules for Radicals” into Macedonian. The book is a tactical manual of subversion, provides direct advice for radical street protests and proclaims Lucifer to be the first radical. Thanks to Obama’s ambassador, who has not been replaced by President Trump, Uncle Sam keeps the money flowing so the groups can continue operating and recruiting, sources in Macedonia and the U.S. confirm.
According to InsidePhilanthropy.com, Soros’ Open Society Foundation “may be the largest philanthropic organization ever built, with branches in 37 countries. While the Gates Foundation spends more money, OSF has a larger footprint worldwide thanks to its many local offices, including throughout Africa.” OSF’s budget will be around $930 million …”
The activities of Ambassador Bailey and USAID’s funding of the Open Society Foundation have recently come under Congressional scrutiny. On January 17, 2017, Senator Mike Lee (R-UT) sent a letter to Baily asking him to explain the State Department’s relationship with Open Society Foundation. On February 24, 2017, Representatives Chris Smith (R-NJ), Louie Gohmert (R-TX), and others called on the Government Accountability Office to conduct an investigation and audit of the Department of State and USAID’s activities in Macedonia, including funding of Open Society Foundation entities and potential interference in domestic Macedonian political affairs in potential violation of the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations.
“The Obama administration seemed to bust taxpayer budgets in an effort to fund the Soros operation,” said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton. “The Trump State Department and USAID should get their act together and disclose the details of the Obama-Soros spigot.”

Money is fungible…. Just a guess: All they’re going to produce is their lunch tickets, and their “cover” operations. It’ll add up to $50k, and the MSM will use the opportunity to smear Judicial Watch and do some name calling. Their real operations (financing arms, drugs, terrorist and child trafficking would be my guess) will go on undisturbed.
We need to just stop funding these A-holes – and when the crime rate goes down in every place between Macedonia and Germany we’ll know we were right.

It is about time decent taxpaying citizens started a few “law fare” battles of their own against the left.

Well said! I’m wondering why Judicial Watch has not sued the State Department and USAID for donation records for EVERY country.

Yes. JW could do that but lawyers could drag it out much longer that way. It’s best for us to concentrate on the United States.

It is time that Gyorgy Schwartz, who calls himself George Soros, was hauled down, humiliated, ridiculed and prosecuted for the national and international criminal activity he has been getting away with for decades.
And those political pigs who have accepted his bribes should be prosecuted also.
To start with, when will there convene an international court to prosecute
GYORGY SCHWANTZ
for his WW2 WAR CRIMES ?
He is an SS Nazi !!!

Soros needs to be tried and sentenced to life imprisonment and kept alive as long as possible in solitary confinement so he can go crazy slowly – even more so than he is already.

Why does a billionaire’s foundation need US taxpayer money? I think I’ll start applying for every f’ing grant the government gives out. I could have started one hell of a business with $4.8+ million. F*ck them and Soros.

He doesn’t need their money, he just uses their money because among some are treacherous Americans sympathetic to his criminal activity and then others are just too stupid to realize what is going on. Have you ever watch congressional hearings and seen Trey Gowdy or Jason Chaffetz ‘grilling’ some of these government workers – otherwise known as civil servants? If you had, you would know that many are so stupid and dishonest it is unbelievable. Evidently the public education system has gone to hell and producing idiots.

Politicians have had too much taxpayers money to waste and this time they have blundered. I guess that Hillary Clinton is to be blamed.

This is what the payoff is when you have a president whose formative years were spent being indoctrinated in an Indonesian madrassa and who was further warped by an Ivy League education earned by enrolling as a foreign student.

They are also funding bad guys in the US with the sole purpose of causing anarchy. The Ozero administration has done so much damage to this country.

I hope someone in the US administration is looking into this outrageous use and abuse of the taxpayers money. President Trump should be replacing all of Obama’s hand picked ambassadors. I can guarantee all of them are doing the same covert operations in the jurisdictions.

The deep state swamp knows no bounds! I believe there are untold numbers of greedy, subversive scum-sucking libturds lurking around. Until the job of draining the libturd swamp is complete, we will continue to see outrageous stories like this one. It’s a dirty job that I doubt even Mike Rowe could do, but I have some confidence that Pres. Trump and AG Sessions will get to all their “happy asses” eventually! I know that when I lived in Moosecow, Putin kicked out any and all of Soros’ subversive organizations and threatened to jail him if he ever came back. That’s exactly how we should handle him here.

The ACLU, would go balistic and Soros funds them. The only solution to all the corruption going on in this country is a good old fashion Revolution. It has taKen a 100 years for the Democrats, assisted by the RINO’s to bring this country to the point of total destruction. So unless their are a hell of a lot of honest volunteers willing to pitch in anD help. Don’t expect Trump and Sessions to do it by themselves! Especially with the Democrats and Republican establisment sabotaging their efforts! The only so called dreamers in this country are the ones that think our problems can be solved from a voting booth.

A friend once said to me that a person gets the face they deserve by the time they are in their 50’s. Must be true, look at Soros.
