Alex Soros in hot seat after left-wing outlet exposes what his dad’s network thinks of his online footprint

Published

on


A recent profile piece on Alex Soros, the heir to the vast liberal mega donor George Soros’ progressive fundraising network, suggested the younger Soros has hurt the family brand with his public profile in recent years.

The article, posted by New York Magazine this week, takes place in Alex Soros’ luxury penthouse in Manhattan and characterizes the home as an example of his indifference to public opinion, which the story suggests hasn’t been beneficial to the family’s Open Society Foundations.

«The setting itself is a testament to a certain indifference to public opinion on Alex’s part — or perhaps a lack of awareness,» the story says.

«This past fall, he held a fundraiser at the apartment for vice-presidential candidate Tim Walz, then created a PR headache by posting photos from the event on social media, as is his custom after meeting heads of state and elected officials. (As a former OSF higher-up says, Alex likes to collect «shiny objects.») 

«It was deemed unhelpful to a presidential ticket straining to underscore its regularness that the son of the 94-year-old hedge-fund billionaire accused of puppeteering the Democratic Party was publicly advertising his centrality to the election effort from a New York City penthouse.»

Soros drew strong criticism on social media over the photo with Walz in his penthouse standing next to a vice presidential candidate who had been labeled as someone who would resonate with rural and working-class voters.

«This guy goes around saying he’s a small town midwestern guy who understands the struggles of the middle class and then goes to hang out at the floating home in the sky of the world’s biggest billionaire nepo baby,» digital strategist Greg Price wrote on X at the time.

«A post like this does nothing to help Kamala Harris & Tim Walz win — if anything, it hurts them,» journalist Jerry Dunleavy posted on X at the time. «So why would Soros post something like this? To publicly signal his power & influence within the next would-be presidential administration.»

New York Magazine wrote that Alex Soros’ «fondness for collecting powerful figures embarrasses people at the foundation.»

«It also underscores his influence. OSF is by some measures the second-largest charitable foundation in the United States, trailing only the Gates Foundation. It gives out roughly $1.5 billion a year, and it spends its U.S. budget not only on liberal causes but also on some of the big dark-money nonprofits aligned with the Democratic Party, including America Votes, the Sixteen Thirty Fund, and the pro-Harris spending group Future Forward USA Action.»

Fox News Digital has documented Soros’ online presence, which includes all the photos he takes with Democratic politicians in recent years, and his Rolodex includes some of the most powerful politicians in the Democratic Party. During the Biden administration, Soros visited the White House over 22 times and met with both Biden and Harris.

His social media profiles have dozens of pictures of him and leading House and Senate Democrats since 2018. The two who appear the most are Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer of New York and former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi of California. Alex had at least nine meetings with Schumer, whom he referred to as his «good friend.» 

Soros had at least eight visits with Pelosi, whom he has called the «greatest Speaker of the House in American History!»

Soros has donated millions to Democrats over the past several years, albeit far less than his father. In 2020, he contributed over $700,000 to the Biden Victory Fund, making him among its top donors. For the 2024 cycle, he maxed out $6,600 in donations directly to Biden’s campaign, federal filings show.

Since the 2018 elections, he has poured more than $5 million into federal political coffers. Records show that his largest contribution was $2 million to the Schumer-aligned Senate Majority PAC during this time.

He’s also contributed hundreds of thousands in cash to the Nancy Pelosi Victory Fund, Democratic National Committee and Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee. He has given tens of thousands more to state Democratic parties and individual campaigns, many of which were maximum contributions. 

The article notes that the Soros network spent hundreds of millions in the last election cycle trying to elect Democrats and push progressive causes and that Soros was «probably the biggest liberal donor of the most recent election cycle» but that it is «hard to know for sure because of untrackable dark-money spending.»

Con menos tendencia «woke» y «más valores norteamericanos», Estados Unidos busca liderar la industria IA

Published

on


El gobierno de Donald Trump lanzó este miércoles un plan con el que busca colocar a Estados Unidos al frente del desarrollo de la Inteligencia Artificial (IA), a través de una reducción de regulaciones, el rechazo de tendencias «woke» y la promoción de «valores norteamericanos».

El jefe de la Casa Blanca consideró en su presentación que los avances en este campo tienen el potencial de transformar el equilibrio de poder global, por lo que para Washington es un imperativo de seguridad nacional lograr y mantener un dominio tecnológico global «indiscutible».

«Estados Unidos es el país que inició la carrera de la inteligencia artificial y como presidente de este país estoy aquí para decir que Estados Unidos la va a ganar. A partir de hoy, Estados Unidos tendrá como política hacer lo que sea necesario para liderar el mundo en inteligencia artificial«, indicó en una cumbre en Washington, reportó la agencia de noticias EFE.

La iniciativa identifica 90 políticas federales que pueden acelerar ese desarrollo y se basan en torno a tres pilares: agilizar la innovación, construir infraestructura estadounidense en la materia y un liderazgo a nivel diplomático y de seguridad.

«Estados Unidos necesita innovar con mayor rapidez y de forma más integral que sus competidores en el desarrollo y la distribución de nuevas tecnologías de IA en todos los campos, y desmantelar las barreras regulatorias innecesarias que impiden al sector privado hacerlo», indicó el documento que detalla ese programa.

La administración trumpista expuso entre las prioridades acabar con las «trabas burocráticas» que, aseguró, limitan al sector privado.

«La IA es demasiado importante como para sofocarla con burocracia en esta etapa inicial, ya sea a nivel estatal o federal», añadió el texto.

El gobierno nacional, además, continuó el documento, «no debe permitir que la financiación federal relacionada con la IA se destine a estados con regulaciones de IA engorrosas que desperdician estos fondos, pero tampoco debe interferir con el derecho de los estados a aprobar leyes prudentes que no restrinjan excesivamente la innovación».

Entre sus recomendaciones, recomendó revisar todas las investigaciones de la Comisión Federal de Comercio (FTC) iniciadas bajo la gestión de Joe Biden para garantizar que no promuevan teorías de responsabilidad que obstaculicen indebidamente la innovación.

Desde Washington también se constató que los sistemas de IA desempeñarán un papel fundamental en la educación, el trabajo y el consumo de medios.

El anuncio de Donald Trump y el plan de acción desde la Casa Blanca

Trump anunció una orden ejecutiva que prohíbe a la administración federal adquirir tecnología de IA que esté, a juicio del Ejecutivo, impregnada de «sesgos partidistas o agendas ideológicas».

«De ahora en adelante, el gobierno solo tratará con IA que busque la verdad, la justicia y una estricta imparcialidad. No vamos a pasar por la locura que hemos vivido durante los últimos cuatro años», dijo.

El plan apunta a que Estados Unidos cuente con modelos abiertos basados en los valores del país. «Los modelos de código abierto y de peso abierto podrían convertirse en estándares globales en algunas áreas de negocios y en la investigación académica a nivel mundial. Por ello, también tienen valor geo estratégico«, indicaron desde el Ejecutivo.

«Defenderemos nuestra nación, nuestros valores, nuestro futuro y nuestra libertad«, dijo en su intervención Trump, que abogó por permitir a la inteligencia artificial bucear en el conocimiento disponible sin atravesar complejas negociaciones contractuales.

Cuando se tiene algo que entra «en esa vasta máquina de inteligencia», según el mandatario, no se puede esperar «pagar cada vez» por ello. «Simplemente no funciona así. Por supuesto, no puedes copiar o plagiar un artículo», aclaró.

Según el plan de acción, hoy en día el obstáculo para aprovechar todo el potencial de la IA no es necesariamente la disponibilidad de modelos, herramientas o aplicaciones, sino más bien una adopción «limitada y lenta» de la IA, especialmente en organizaciones grandes y consolidadas.

El Ejecutivo se propuso ampliar la alfabetización y el desarrollo de habilidades en IA, evaluar de forma continua el impacto de la IA en el mercado laboral e implementar innovaciones para capacitar rápidamente a los trabajadores y ayudarlos a prosperar en una economía impulsada por esta herramienta.

«Ganar la carrera de la IA no es negociable. Estados Unidos debe seguir siendo la fuerza dominante», dijo en el documento el secretario de Estado, Marco Rubio, para quien los nuevos objetivos marcan el camino para que el país establezca «el patrón de oro» tecnológico al respecto y que el mundo «siga funcionando con tecnología estadounidense».

Jewish leader predicts violent future for NYC residents if Mamdani wins in November: ‘Real concern’

Published

on


NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!

A New York City Jewish leader is speaking out about the possibility of a Zohran Mamdani term as mayor of New York City, telling Fox News Digital he is concerned about the safety of Jewish residents, as well as all New Yorkers.

Scott Feltman, executive vice president of the One Israel Fund, told Fox News Digital that the Jewish community in the country’s largest city is «not against» a Muslim or any person of faith running for office, but what they do oppose is candidates that «align themselves with nefarious actors» like Hamas or Hezbollah. 

«He was just recorded at a local mosque where the Imam of that mosque has basically called for the death of IDF soldiers and praised the efforts of Hamas,» Feltman said. «So that’s what we’re opposed to, and it’s a very, very real serious concern.»

Feltman pointed to the rise of antisemitic attacks in recent years, particularly in New York City, which he says has «created a certain trepidation in the Jewish community and having this particular candidate now making such inroads» is a «real concern.»

UNEARTHED MAMDANI CLIP REVEALS HOW HIS UPBRINGING MADE HIM OPEN TO BEING CALLED ‘RADICAL,’ SOCIALIST

Two Israeli embassy staffers were killed in Washington, D.C., earlier this year by a man shouting «free Palestine» around the same time that an Egyptian man targeted a pro-Israel demonstration, killing one person and injuring several others, in Boulder, Colorado.

«I know that every single day I fear for my own staff knowing that our organization has been called out by this candidate, and we have no idea, you know, who’s following him and what their interests and what their actions may be. So it is a real serious concern.»

Mamdani, along with actress Cynthia Nixon, called out the One Israel Fund earlier this month in a post Feltman responded to with an article in American Thinker.

«When you go out and you align yourselves with terminology like globalize the intifada, which is basically a euphemism for kill Jews all over the world, that’s what it is, the intifada was basically a movement in Israel 25 years ago to destroy the state of Israel and didn’t discriminate against civilian or military personnel,» Feltman told Fox News Digital.

«And when you want to globalize that, the messaging is very clear to the people who are listening and following and that has put many people in the Jewish community, if not all of us, on notice and has created the feeling of genuine concern. I’m concerned for New York City in general. It’s not just the Jewish community. His platform of defunding the police and basically offering all kinds of free things to people, which I don’t think he can even accomplish, even though he keeps doubling down on the rhetoric, but just defunding the police puts everyone here in jeopardy.»

Mamdani has been widely criticized for his initial failure to condemn the phrase «globalize the intifada», which many Jewish people view as a call for violence. Mamdani eventually walked back his initial reluctance by saying he discourages people from using the phrase and told business leaders he would not use it.

Feltman referred to Mamdani as a «social media darling» and complimented the way he has been able to mobilize voters but said, ultimately, while discussing his rise, that the education system has done a «tremendous injustice to our children, especially on the university level where we see antisemitism exploding exponentially.»

Fox News Digital reached out to Mamdani’s campaign for comment.

The United Nations’ highest court on Wednesday ruled that wealthy countries must comply with their commitments to curb fossil fuels and pollution or risk being held financially liable by nations hit the hardest by climate change.

The 15-member U.N. International Court of Justice said that treaties compel rich nations to curb global warming and that the countries were also responsible for the actions of companies under their jurisdiction or control, Reuters reported. 

«States must cooperate to achieve concrete emission reduction targets,» Judge Yuji Iwasawa said at The Hague. «Greenhouse gas emissions are unequivocally caused by human activities which are not territorially limited.»

Failure to do so could result in «full reparations to injured states in the form of restitution, compensation and satisfaction provided that the general conditions of the law of state responsibility are met,» the report states. 

In response to the ruling, White House spokeswoman Taylor Rogers told Fox News Digital that «as always, President Trump and the entire Administration is committed to putting America first and prioritizing the interests of everyday Americans.»
