A movement started a couple of years ago to protect billionaire financier radical leftist activist George Soros by accusing anyone who invoked his name in a negative light of being an anti-Semite. This was odd, because Soros himself is not a religious person, and most people probably don’t even know he’s of Jewish ancestry. Just as recently as last week a story came out about Soros being “a leading target of anti-Semitism”
I have never heard a single prominent conservative complain about Soros being a Jew. That kind of rhetoric isn’t found in conservatism. I believe this phenomenon was created, because Soros is a huge benefactor for many leftist causes around the world, and behaving like race hustlers, the Left attacks his critics with charges of bigotry, even though criticisms barely ever mention his Jewish heritage.
In fact, the only time I believe they have was to point out that Soros himself openly admits and has no regrets of being a Nazi sympathizer during the Nazi regime. If that’s being anti-Semitic, then the definition has been radically changed.
Then we had this genuinely weird moment on Fox News where a host tried to stop Newt Gingrich in his tracks the minute he mentioned that Soros was supporting efforts behind the Black Lives Matter (BLM) protests.
This caused a noticeable awkward silence from co-hosts Harris Faulkner and Melissa Francis during Wednesday’s edition “Outnumbered.”
“The number one problem in almost all these cities is George Soros-elected, left-wing, anti-police, pro-criminal district attorneys who refuse to keep people locked up,” said Gingrich.
“You cannot solve this problem, and both Harris and Biden have talked very proudly about what they call progressive district attorneys, progressive district attorneys are anti-police, pro-criminal and overwhelmingly elected with George Soros money and they’re a major cause of the violence we’re seeing because they keep putting the violent criminals back on the street,” he went on to say.
Fox News commentator Melissa Francis interrupted saying, “I’m not sure we need to bring George Soros into this. I was going to say you get the last word, speaker…”, and the former House Speaker went on to claim that Soros paid for the protests, asking why the “millions of dollars” couldn’t be discussed on the panel.
“He paid for it,” responded Gingrich.
“No he didn’t,” said Democratic strategist Marie Harf. “I agree with Melissa, George Soros doesn’t need to be part of this conversation.” So, now Fox News allows their hosts to shut down honest conversations for political reasons?
“Okay?” said Gingrich, bewildered. “So it’s verboten?” (forbidden)
WATCH:
The segment was posted on social media by Fox viewers who became angry at the notion that now even Fox News is protecting the man who funds most radical progressive protests and other events, when there is evidence that he does.
“Why in the HELL is Fox News protecting George Soros? What is going on here? Someone needs to uncover this outrage,” tweeted commentator Neal Boortz.
Some people noted that Fox News itself has reported on the number of progressive district attorneys who had been financially backed in their election races by progressive leftists organizations that are funded by George Soros. “Discover the Networks” has listed over 330 connections to Soros, including 210 leftist organizations he has funded. Nothing to see here, right? Certainly if any topic should be open for discussion, it’s that.
“Soros, through the Justice & Public Safety PAC and other groups, has been spending millions of dollars on prosecutorial races in recent years, with a number of beneficiaries making headlines since their elections,” the Fox story said at the end of July.
Marjorie Taylor Greene, a Republican candidate for Congress from Georgia, took to social media and retweeted a post from conservative activist Jack Posobiec.
“I think we should stop radical leftists like George Soros from funding the destruction of America. Happy to talk about it. As a matter of fact, I talk about it all the time.”
David Dudenhoefer, another GOP candidate for Congress from Michigan, also tweeted about the segment:
“I didn’t realize how left Fox News has become until this very moment. Newt Gingrich is 100% accurate with the best analysis I’ve ever heard. Apparently the truth is ‘verboten’ on Fox. My question is: What does George Soros have on the powers-that-be at Fox News?”
And that’s a very good question, because I remember when Glenn Beck did back to back episodes on his TV show about Soros when he was at Fox News. Apparently, after the first episode a high powered attorney contacted upper management at Fox and told them that Mr. Soros was not happy with the things Beck was revealing. The truth always hurts.
Other Twitter users were just as perplexed.
I only watch Tucker, Sean, and Laura anymore on that network. Otherwise, I watch One America News, the most honest, hard-hitting news network out there.

George Soros, through his OSF, ( OPEN SOCIETY FOUNDATION ) HAS FUNDED OVER 220 LEFT OR LEANING LEFT GROUPS IN THE USA INCLUDING MEDIA MATTERS!
and uncountable evil organizations around the world 🙁
If Fox New’s decides that it won’t discuss the truth about who funds the liberal leftest then its time to add them to the false & Fake news category.
I didn’t know that the hostess Melissa and Harris had shut down Gingrich why did they do it give me an answer I think we deserve one if he’s doing the criminal then he needs to be stated as a criminal one that is feeding all of these idiots and I don’t appreciate you shutting up a Republican so I guess Fox news better get it together or he’s or they’re not going to have anyone watching them anymore
soras should be put out of our country
What or why does Soros hate the United States? With this hatred of the US why does he live here?
I still watch Tucker, Hannity. But no more of Foxnews…
I turned off all msm news 4 years ago…… They are bought and paid for by the Devil himself…. (Soros).
Just found out about this incident today, Thursday 9/17/20. So..:FOX News is no longer”Fair and Balanced”? I’ll be looking elsewhere for my news. All MSM was cutoff in our house years ago with CNN and MSNBC…. FOX 🦊, you can join right along with them! However, I may still keep Tucker, Hannity and Ingram on my watch list. Newt, Mr. Speaker, was right on mark! I am soooo angry and feel used.
I only watch Tucker, Sean, and Laura on FOX network. Otherwise, I watch One America News, the most honest, hard-hitting news network out there & also you don’t have to listen all day to someone else’s opinion on this n that.
Soros will be dead soon anyway. Yahoo!
Yeahbut his son is just as bad!
he has 2 sons being groomed.
I agree with only watching Tucker Sean and Laura on Fox and otherwise watching OAN
I only watch Tucker and Sean. I do watch some of the morning show but turn it off when Sandra Smith comes on. Watch News Max.
This is what our political environment has become for not having term limits on Congress and allowing these lobbyists and mega donors to by these politicians.
Why hide something 99% of the Nation already knows. FOX NEWS in recent times, has shut down many stories by finding ways to talk of them in the right times. The times where they have to leave the story to air a Presidential Speech, a Biden speech for what ever that’s worth, a Kamala Harris speech and again for whatever that’s worth. So I see many reasons why FOX is unable to discuss Soros’. He IS the top money man that lives only to destroy America. He owns many people who own many News Media’s and they are his puppets. FOX News owner is one of the puppets. He only allows what Soros’ allows to leave the audiences in thinking FOX News is on the people’s side and is in a fight with the Main News Liberal Stream and in light I believe they are not. It’s seems they are dangling that Democratic Carrot just high enough and ahead enough for the audience to keep attempting to take the big bite. That’s why I will only watch ONE AMERICA NEWS, (OAN). To get the real, unbiased news. FOX NEWS and the rest are that of opinions and those opinions really mean nothing as far as NEWS. I have stated my opinion here, however I’m not stating any News, just my opinion.
Absolutely priceless:
“I didn’t realize how left Fox News has become until this very moment.”
Really? So pushing out conservative host after conservative host, hiring and giving a regular platform to the likes of Juan Williams, DONNA BRAZILE, Marie Harf and countless other Obama mouthpieces was too vague a hint for ya? And this is a congressman talking? With those powers of observation, it explains a lot as to why the country is where it is. Those who are supposed to be elected to represent us are apparently completely clueless as to reality going on around them.
We only watch Tucker, Hannity & Ingram. Maybe they’ll pick up the story about Soros that those other hosts wanted to shut down. We all know that Soros is behind the financing of BLM and other radical groups that have caused billions of dollars to cities. We also now that he owns Progressive Insurance and people that have this coverage are helping him destroy our Country!
OUTNUMBERED CAN GO CRAP UP A POST FOR ALL I CARE. ARE ALL THOSE GIRLS GETTING SOROS CHECKS NOW ALSO? SEEMS HE HAS TO BUY EVERYONE AND DEMOCRATS ARE MONEY AND POWER HUNGRY. NEVER THOUGHT I WOULD SEE SO MUCH IDIOCY FROM FOX. THEY SURE HAVE GONE DOWN HILL SINCE I WAS SO ATTACHED TO THEM EVEN 1 OR 2 YEARS AGO. SO SORRY TO SEE THIS BUT I SEE TUCKER AND HANNITY AND THAT IS IT. OAN IS MY STATION NOW. THEY TELL THE TRUTH AND HAVE GOOD REPORTERS.
You’re a moron
Shitty journalism for stupid people.
IT WAS MARIE HARF, THE LIBERAL GAL, NOT MELISSA! AND HSRRIS FAULKNER WAS WAITING AWKWARDLY FOR NEWT TO HAVE THE LAST WORD BUT HE SAID NOTHING MORE! DON’T TWIST WHAT HAPPENED. I WATCHED IT 4 TIMES.
Wow! I mean wow! That is frightening! Fox is supposed to allow all thought, even if it’s about George Soros! Shame on you FOX! You are on notice!
If people would stop watching fake news like Fox, the companies who fund their lies and agendas will drop them and we win. End of story. Too bad that won’t happen.
I did a post on this before but have not seen it anywhere so I will do it again.
These protests that have turned into riots are mainly due to outside people coming into there city and destroying everything. Turning a peaceful protest into a riot. Now we have DAs, mayors, and governors that won’t push charges against them for doing that.
OK!!! LET’S GET SOMEONE THAT CAN GO AFTER THEM AND SHOULD!! DA’s, mayors, Atty. generals and governors that refuse to do anything can be bypassed. And maybe held reliable for not doing their sworn duty in their office.
THE INSURANCE COMPANIES SHOULD GO AFTER RESTITUTION FOR THE BILLION DOLLARS THAT THEIR OUT. By lawfully suing the rioters, their leaders, and the people funding them, to get their money back. Insurance companies have claim adjuster investigators and Atty on their payroll that nobody can buy off. If they get together and sue for their money. You will see a stop to all funding and leaders of this crazy BS.
i HAVE SEEN A LOT OF REPORTS ABOUT WHO IS SUPPORTING, LEADING, AND FUNDING THESE BLM RIOTS.
INSURANCE INVESTIGATORS DEAL IN FACTS NOT RUMORS, FICTION OR POLITICS! THEY CAN NAIL DOWN THE ONES RESPONSIBLE ALL THE WAY TO THE TOP. IF THAT TRAIL LEADS WHERE IT HAS BEEN SUGGESTED, THEN THE COURT CAN GET THERE MONEY BACK FOR THEM.
IT SEEMS TO ME THAT THIS IS THE ONLY WAY WE WILL EVER STOP WHAT IS HAPPING.
IT’S ALWAYS ABOUT MONEY. YOU STOP THE MONEY YOU STOP IT.
I only watch Tucker and Hannity maybe Laura a little. Fox watch your ratings plummet!!!!!!
Marie Harf is a sickening Liberal and she is more than likely bought out by George Sores why else would she have cut Newt off?
Marie HARF is an idiot. she is so liberal it makes ne sick. there are plenty of Trump bashers on other MSM outlets, she needs to go there. For her to say that the crap not being in the sub-burbs is really disgusting. I would be willing to bet if she lived where they were rioting she would feel differently. If you are terrorized by the left-wing idiots then it is terrorizing no matter who you are. Why is she allowed to spew her shit on FOX? If I want to hear her crap I will watch NBC or CNN or CBS
