Clinton Gets $6 Million From Soros As Money Race Winners Revealed Ahead Of Iowa Caucus

On Sunday night we got a look at the 2015 campaign reports for US presidential candidates as the deadline for FEC filings came and went.
There were a number of notable donations, but the headline grabber was George Soros who in the second half of last year gave $6 million to Hillary Clinton’s super PAC, bringing his total donation to $7 million.
Clinton’s “Priorities USA” pulled in $25.3 million in H2 and ended the year with more than $35 million in the bank. Hollywood billionaires Cheryl and Haim Saban gave $1.5 million each and producer Tom Tull chipped in a million. As CNN notes, two other groups supporting Clinton, American Bridge and Correct the Record, brought in an additional $6 million total.
Soros – a longtime Democratic supporter – is keen on ensuring Donald Trump doesn’t end up in The White House. “By fear mongering, he’s doing the work of ISIS,” Soros told a dinner in Davos last month. “He wants people to turn against the Muslim community and make the Muslim community think there is no alternative to terrorism.”
“We’re heading into the first caucuses and primaries with an organization second to none thanks to the support of hundreds of thousands of people across the country,” Robby Mook, Clinton’s campaign manager boasted. “We will have the resources necessary to wage a successful campaign in the early states and beyond.” All told, Priorities USA got 80 contributions in H2. 31 of those were for $100,000 or more.
In stark contrast Bernie Sanders has eschewed the super PAC. The senator raised $20 million in January alone ($34 million during Q4) from small donors. The average donation: $27.
The Sanders campaign says Bernie is “built for the long haul.” “As Secretary Clinton holds high-dollar fundraisers with the nation’s financial elite, our supporters have stepped up in a way that allows Bernie to spend the critical days before the caucuses talking to Iowans about his plans to fix a rigged economy and end a corrupt system of campaign finance,” Sanders’ campaign manager said in a statement.
