The cities across the United States witnessed riots and looting in protest that was erupted after the death of George Floyd, an unarmed black man during an arrest on Monday. Minneapolis, the epicenter of protest, witnessed protests for the fifth consecutive day, and the police have to use tear gas and stun grenades at the protestors.

After Minneapolis, many other cities like Chicago, Los Angeles, and New York witnessed large scale protests and the government was forced to impose a curfew.

However, one very strange aspect of the protest is that Republican Party and Donald Trump is being blamed for what is happing in cities across the United States, despite the fact that Minnesota is a blue- Democratic Party- state.
The Governor of Minnesota, Tim Walz, won on Democratic Party ticket. The Attorney General and Lieutenant Governors are also from the Democratic Party. The Senator’s state sends to national Senate are Democrats while among the 8 seats of House of Representatives, 5 are represented by Democrats. The Mayor of the city of Minneapolis is also a Democrat.
Despite such an overwhelming representation of Democrats, the protestors are blaming the Republican Party and Donald Trump. This has led to many commentators pointing out that, the protest, #Blacklivesatters, is actually funded by billionaire George Soros. The Soros headed Open Society Foundation has hijacked the BlacklivesMatters campaign through substantial funding in the last few years, and this has led to people blaming Soros for funding these protestors, who are destroying private and public property in American cities.

Soros, an ardent supporter of the Democratic Party, is being accused of funding these protests to ensure Trump’s loss in Presidential Election 2020. Democratic National Convention (DNC) is said to be helping in organizing these protests.
It has become evident that the protests are not a random reaction but well organized as many protestors were found to be from outside the state.
80% of the RIOTERS in Minneapolis last night were from OUT OF STATE. They are harming businesses (especially African American small businesses), homes, and the community of good, hardworking Minneapolis residents who want peace, equality, and to provide for their families.

“80% of the RIOTERS in Minneapolis last night were from OUT OF STATE. They are harming businesses (especially African American small businesses), homes, and the community of good, hardworking Minneapolis residents who want peace, equality, and to provide for their families,” tweeted President Trump.
Since it became evident that these are organized protests, many US media commentators and politicians have blamed George Soros for funding these protests and Democratic Party for organizing them.
Media personality Bill Mitchell called for arrest of Soros in a tweet and accused DNC for protests and riots. “GOP, STOP coddling George Soros! Arrest him. Seize his assets. Seize his records. Arrest his co-conspirators. Charge him with seditious conspiracy. Try him then throw him in prison for the rest of his miserable life,” tweeted Mitchell.
GOP, STOP coddling George Soros!
Arrest him. Seize his assets. Seize his records. Arrest his co-conspirators. Charge him with seditious conspiracy. Try him then throw him in prison for the rest of his miserable life.

Of course the Left's plan is to loot and burn our cities then the Media will claim Trump is weak for not stopping them. Then Trump tweets about using force to stop them and Twitter hides the tweet as inciting violence.
This is all 100% orchestrated by the DNC.

As Soros has pumped billions of dollars for Black Lives Matter project, he is being accused of being responsible for these protests which are going under same banner.
I swear!! How long will we allow this evil tyrant to get away with this? Hungary, where he was born, just outright expelled the man from the country as well as any organization that takes money from him! When will the USA get the balls to do the same? How high up does this go?

Hungary, where he was born, just outright expelled the man from the country as well as any organization that takes money from him! When will the USA get the balls to do the same? How high up does this go?,” tweeted DeAnna Loraine, prominent Republic Party politician and former Congressional candidate, in reply to a tweet by Mitchell.
“I really don’t understand. How can George Soros can fund violent anarchy against American cities, their citizens, and remain untouchable? He has stated publicly what he intends to do, then he does it and NOTHING?” tweeted Chuck Woolery, another prominent media personality.

Political activist Candace Owens also accused Soros for funding these protests. “The Minneapolis chief of police just confirmed that many of the protesters that are burning down the city are NOT FROM MINNEAPOLIS. My guess: As he did with Antifa, Democrat George Soros has these thugs on payroll. He is funding the chaos via his Open Society Foundation,” she tweeted.

Open Society Foundation (OSF), the organizations through which Soros funds Black Lives Matter and many other such initiatives, replied to her tweet and called the allegations baseless. “Hi Candace, Mr. Soros and the Open Society Foundations oppose all violence and do not pay people to protest. We lament the effort, through baseless allegations, to distract from the crisis of police brutality in Minneapolis and in too many other parts of the country,” OSF tweeted.

Soros is a funder of liberal causes and has attacked Nationalist leaders like PM Modi and Donald Trump. The billionaire philanthropist and the protector of Liberal democracy, has attacked PM Modi and his Kashmir agenda in a speech at the World Economic Forum in Davos. Soros, who stands for globalism and hates every shade of Nationalism, also said, “Nationalism, far from being reversed, made further headway.”
Soros has funded the causes of Globalization through the agency Open Society Foundations (OSF), which has an endowment of more than 19 billion dollars. And in the last three decades, he has made every effort to accelerate globalization and weaken the Nationalist values around the world. According to Soros, the biggest and “most frightening setback (on Nationalism),” he said, “came in India where a democratically elected Narendra Modi is creating a Hindu nationalist state, imposing punitive measures on Kashmir, a semi-autonomous Muslim region, and threatening to deprive millions of Muslims of their citizenship.”
Soros’s political activism, as well as his business career, has been mired with controversies. In 1988, Soros benefitted from being convicted in an insider trading case and used his political influence as immunity from conviction. When the case was opened under pressure from the opposition parties, he was convicted in 2002. Since then, he has used the political and business influence to get lenient treatment from the law enforcement agencies of France.
Soros has also repeatedly accused of using legal loopholes to evade taxes. He regularly preaches that the rich people should pay more taxes for the welfare of the larger community and social services by the government, but, does not practice the same.
Soros has been accused of funding the groups that try to meddle in US Presidential Elections. Federal Electoral Commission (FEC) – the body which conducts election in the United States- has cracked down on the agencies that were trying to meddle in elections, and it was found that majority of these bodies were being funded through Open Society Foundations.
Conservapedia, the Conservative wiki primarily managed by American conservatives has described Soros as “an anti-Semitic atheist, international financier and con artist who bankrolled the presidential campaigns of Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton, among other left-wing causes.”
And now, as the Black Lives Matter protest has turned violent and protectors damage, Conservatives smell a Soros hand in the whole matter.
