SOROS PEOPLE
Parnas, Fruman, Giuliani, diGenova, and Toensing worked to push Ukrainian authorities to announce an investigation of a company linked to Vice President Joe Biden, and to oust U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch. But that wasnt all, according to Parnas. He said they also angled to get Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to force at least two people out of his own orbit: former journalist Serhiy Leshchenko and then-national security adviser Oleksandr Danylyuk. The reason? In Parnas words, they were Soros people.
George Soros, an American billionaire who has invested heavily in progressive political causes and philanthropies around the world, has long been a bête noire of conservatives and regularly vilified in Russian propagandathe same kind that Trumpworld is accused of subscribing to in its Ukraine dealings. Giuliani, diGenova, and Toensing were particularly opposed to Soros work, Parnas said.
Soros became Enemy Number One, and it was understood that Soros infiltrated the U.S. government and State Department over a certain period of time, Parnas said.
He employed different prosecutors in different states, different congressmen, and the biggest thing was they thought Victoria Nuland was his person in the State Department and then let him control Eastern Europe by naming ambassadors and stuff, and then opened up this anti-corruption-type of system to cover up, actually, his corruption. Thats what we were running with.
. . .
The consensus was that the reason Trump had the Russiagate and everything that was happening was because Soros and the Democrats controlled certain U.S. embassies in Eastern Europe, particularly the Ukrainian one, and were able to help with the Manafort stuff and all other kinds of stuff that basically caused problems in the Trump World, he said.

(40,238 posts)1. Trump and everyone in his cabal are flat out insane.
One more thing, the Soros theory is a classic anti-Semitic trope.

Can't count the number of times Alex Jones has spouted about so-and-so being "hired by Soros". Or another favorite is "paid actors hired by Soros to (fill in the blank)."

How ridiculous.

(16,616 posts)3. The Soros smear is still in play, right now, this morning.
I was watching tweets with the #2A hashtag before tomorrow's Richland VA gun rally. Bots, trolls and conspiracy theorists are promulgating the rumor that Soros is financing "busloads" of Antifa disguised as MAGAts who are coming to the rally to foment violence.
This is so predictable. We've all seen this before in 2016.
