George Soros Is Singlehandedly Destroying American Criminal Justice

Crime is rapidly rising in major American cities, primarily where liberal District Attorney's (DA) received large sums of money from liberal billionaire George Soros in their election campaigns. Many of these DAs take it upon themselves to dismiss charges for various reasons – whether it is income, racial, or status based, ignoring the law. Liberal George Soros DAs, like any other politician, do what their largest donor wants them to do. In the case of American criminal justice, we see what George Soros wants: criminals who get away with crime and victims who never see justice.

America is a unique country. We are a nation guided by the Constitution which provides Due Process, prohibiting the government from depriving a person of his or her day in court. It means that someone cannot be accused of a crime and thrown in jail, making the court process an integral part of our criminal justice system should the accused want to face their accuser. 

But what happens when the justice system is made a mockery by a liberal billionaire donor such as Soros? Simple: There will be no justice system, and society will start to crumble. 

Soros is perhaps the godfather of woke criminal justice reform. He has also dolled out tens of millions of dollars into district attorney races. The candidates he supports are primarily in large left-wing cities, and we are starting to see the fruits of his labor in crime spikes. Violent crime is rising at an unprecedented rate, and Soros is primarily to blame, whether he accepts reality or not. 

In New York City, Jose Alba, a bodega worker, was attacked by Austin Simon after Simon believed Alba mistreated his girlfriend's minor daughter over a bag of chips. After Simon began to assault Alba, he managed to stab Simon, who died of his injuries. A clear case of self-defense that was captured on surveillance footage. Soros-funded District Attorney Alvin Bragg levied murder charges against Alba. Later, after outrage and a review of surveillance footage, the charges were dropped; the arrest should have never occurred.

Alba's case is just one out of thousands where Soros-backed attorneys hold victims accountable for crimes they did not commit. Criminals remain accessible on the streets to cause havoc, destruction, and social disintegration. All the while, Soros denies the reality that he is responsible for the degradation of American criminal justice and the freedom to walk down city sidewalks without fear of being mugged, seeing homeless urinating in public, or stepping in feces. 

Completely detached from reality in his billionaire ivory tower, Soros claimed that his progressive DA's policies are not the reason for crime spikes in large cities after he was called out in a Wall Street Journal opinion piece. In his defense, Soros claimed that Republican-led states have more crime but could not back up his claim. Like many other leftists, he is devoid of reality and is more focused on power, reform, and so-called equality than reality. 

The reality is that crime is spiking in major American cities where Soros is responsible for donating enough money to get progressive, light-on-law prosecutors elected; however, citizens are starting to realize the damage of progressive prosecutors. One of the most liberal cities in America recalled San Francisco prosecutor Chesa Boudin, with received a 61% of voters wanting him out of office – a message that should reverberate across the country. Los Angeles District Attorney George Gascon is likely to face a recall vote as well. If Gascon gets recalled, we will see two of George Soros' picks kicked out of office.

Removing Soros-backed DAs is essential for the safety of communities. However, voters must realize that left-wing legal policies are unsuitable for their community or the country. When liberals or leftists say they want progressive prosecution, they want to decriminalize crime for politics; law enforcement and politics should never hold hands. 

Soros' DAs must get recalled and replaced with prosecutors who believe criminals should be held accountable. Right now, major American cities are quickly decaying and turning into a real-life Gotham City. However, even Batman cannot save them, for he will be arrested and charged by a progressive Soros-backed district attorney.
