    Wow... she is pretty close to his recall numbers. You may be right. Nothing like the constant threat of violent crime to piss people off.

    Report: Soros Prosecutors Run Half of America’s Largest Jurisdictions

    George Soros spent more than $40 million in the past decade to elect scores of liberal prosecutors in half of America's largest jurisdictions, many of which are now roiled by crime.

    The Democratic megadonor has backed 75 so-called justice reform prosecutors through direct contributions, PACs, and other third-party entities, the Law Enforcement Legal Defense Fund revealed in a June report. Though many had little prosecutorial experience when elected, they represent 72 million Americans in some of the nation's most populous municipalities. Ten Soros prosecutors, including Philadelphia district attorney Larry Krasner (D.) and Los Angeles district attorney George Gascon (D.), received $13 million in just the last four years, going on to win races where they had vastly outraised their competition—sometimes by as much as 90 percent. In each race, Soros was the single greatest donor to the campaign.

    "Our study shows for the first time, Soros's funding and installation of these district attorneys is fundamentally dismantling the criminal justice system as we know it," Law Enforcement Legal Defense Fund president Jason Johnson told the Washington Free Beacon.

    Amazing how one foreigner is allowed to disrupt American society. I thought there were laws preventing that.

    Looked it up... George Soros has held American citizenship since 1961 making all of his funding of political activities legal.

    He moved to NYC in 1956.

    The only conviction on his record is for insider trading in France for which he was convicted in absentia and fined $2.9m.

    I didn't understand why he is untouchable. Now I do.
