The Curious George Soros Links.
Look at what’s going on with Judge Brett Kavanaugh’s confirmation proceedings for the Supreme Court, and the fingerprints of George Soros are all over it.
First there was a report from June in the Daily Caller that found “a new political advocacy group that vowed to put $5 million behind an effort to stop … Kavanaugh’s confirmation has significant ties to the liberal financier” Soros.
What are those ties?
The group, Demand Justice, established in 2018, gets its money from the Sixteen Thirty Fund — and the Sixteen Thirty Fund received roughly $2.2 million from the Open Society Policy Center, one of Soros’ outlets, between the years of 2012 and 2016.
And Demand Justice’s entire mission is to advance a progressive agenda through the courts.
“[Our goal is to] sensitize rank-and-file progressives to think of the courts as a venue for their activism and a way to advance the progressive agenda,” DJ’s executive director, Brian Fallon, said to The New York Times.
But that’s not all.
Debra Katz, the attorney representing Kavanaugh’s accuser — Christine Blasey Ford — is vice chair of the Project on Government Oversight, an organization that has been directly funded by Soros’ Open Society Foundation.
Katz is also a hefty Democratic donor, giving thousands of dollars over the years to Odumbo, hildebeest and other leftist candidates, as Front Page Mag reported.
Combine that with the reports of Kavanaugh’s denial of even being at the party described by Ford, and what’s shaping is a curious — to say the least — twist to the nomination hearings. Now, Kavanaugh’s due to appear before the Senate Judiciary Committee, alongside his accuser, and the vote to move forward his confirmation is postponed.
Kavanaugh’s personal reputation, prior to Ford’s accusation, has been stellar.
“I’ve been friends with Brett Kavanaugh for over 35 years, and dated him during high school,” said Maura Kane, in a statement to the media. “In every situation where we were together, he was always respectful, kind and thoughtful. The accusations leveled against him in no way represent the decent young man I knew. We remain good friends and I admire him as a husband, father and professional.”
Another woman who said she dated Kavanaugh in college released a similar statement, vouching for his character “completely.”
Of course, Democrats dismiss these women’s statements as inconsequential — as meaningless. What they mean is it doesn’t fit their narrative. What they want hidden is it doesn’t fit their funders’ and donors’ narratives.

'It's Eye-Opening': Kurtz Highlights 'Choreographed,' Soros-Linked Protests Against Kavanaugh
MediaBuzz host Howard Kurtz said on America's Newsroom he found it "eye-opening" that some of the protesters who have confronted Republicans over Brett Kavanaugh's Supreme Court nomination are part of an organized group.
The women who confronted Sen. Jeff Flake (R-Ariz.) and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell in recent days are part of the nonprofit Center for Popular Democracy. The video of Flake being shouted at in a Capitol Hill elevator went viral on Friday, with the activists claiming they too were sexual assault victims.
Records show that the group has received funding from liberal billionaire George Soros.
"These incidents are no accident," Kurtz said on Wednesday, adding that the protests are "highly coordinated and choreographed" despite being billed as "spontaneous" protests by many outlets.
Records show that Soros donated $1.5 million to the protesters' nonprofit over the last two years.
In addition to Flake and McConnell, Sen. Ted Cruz (Texas) and Sen. Bill Cassidy (La.) have also been confronted or harassed by protesters over Kavanaugh's nomination.
Kurtz said on Wednesday that the accusations against Kavanaugh and the media's coverage of them has led to an "all-out war" against the judge.
In the last week, he said the journalistic train "has really gone off the rails" due to a variety of new accusations against Kavanaugh.
"This constant barrage of stories about how much Judge Kavanaugh drank in high school or college, getting into a bar fight, throwing ice on someone ... none of these things have much to do with the qualifications of being a Supreme Court Justice."
