Who'd a thunk that Obama's administration and George Soros were in some form of collusion?

Obama State Department Used Taxpayer Dollars to Fund George Soros Groups in Albania

"The Obama administration sent U.S. taxpayer funds to a group backed by billionaire George Soros to fund left-wing activities in Albania, a conservative watchdog group says.

The group, Judicial Watch, obtained 32 pages of records from the Justice Department this week through a May 2017 Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit against the State Department and U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID.)

The new documents show USAID funds were sent through the agency’s Civil Society Project to back Soros’ left-wing "East West Management Institute" through USAID's "Justice for All" campaign. USAID provided $8.8 million in 2016 to that campaign.

The Justice for All Project was designed to strengthen the effectiveness and transparency of the courts in Albania. The project aimed to increase citizens’ trust in the judiciary and a more efficient judicial system, according to USAID.

Judicial Watch said ,though, that money was used specifically to give the Albanian socialist government greater control of the judiciary system.

“The Obama administration quietly spent at least $9 million in U.S. taxpayers’ dollars in direct collusion with left-wing billionaire George Soros’ backing of a socialist government in Albania,” Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton said in a statement Wednesday. “It is particularly outrageous that the State Department allowed the Soros operation to help direct taxpayer funds to other groups.”"

Collusion to interfere in a foreign election? Wouldn't be the first time the obummer government did that in an effort to advance the socialist agenda.
The State Department paid hundreds of thousands of dollars in taxpayers grants to an Israeli group that used the money to build a campaign to oust Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in last year’s Israeli parliamentary elections, a congressional investigation concluded Tuesday.

Some $350,000 was sent to OneVoice, ostensibly to support the group’s efforts to back Israeli-Palestinian peace settlement negotiations. But OneVoice used the money to build a voter database, train activists and hire a political consulting firm with ties to President Obama’s campaign — all of which set the stage for an anti-Netanyahu campaign, the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations said in a bipartisan staff report.

In one stunning finding, the subcommittee said OneVoice even told the State Department’s top diplomat in Jerusalem of its plans in an email, but the official, Consul General Michael Ratney, claims never to have seen them.

He said he regularly deleted emails with large attachments — a striking violation of open-records laws for a department already reeling from former Secretary Hillary Clinton’s handling of official government records.

Does it really matter, nothing happens when this stuff is uncovered, nothing changes politicians just go on doing what they please. Trump is really trying and has made a little headway. All we can hope for is his snow ball just keeps getting bigger and he is able to stay in the white house long enough. Not to change the subject, just heard on the radio his approval rating went over 50%. Bet that makes a few Dems pucker.

While we’re talking about funding, I’m wondering who is paying for the Chicago “volunteer” people who are here protesting with teachers in their quest for a higher salary? And who is paying for the TV commercials using support for higher salaries for Oklahoma teachers? There are a lot of demonstrations in Various places-Kentucky and elsewhere including high school students that on the surface seems legitimate but there appears to be a subtle undercurrent seemingly propping up the demonstrations and protests.
I can see Hollywood wrath coming into play but the organization is suspect.
