Soros Bankrolling Effort to Stop Trump’s Temporary Refugee Halt Order

Via PJ Media

The flurry of anguished news stories and protests surrounding President Trump’s executive action temporarily suspending “immigrants and non-immigrants” from “countries of particular concern” appears to be part of a coordinated PR effort financed by left-wing billionaire George Soros.

Rather than a complete “Muslim ban” as promised during the campaign, Trump’s executive order contains moderate refugee restrictions, similar to those that have been implemented by President Obama. If reports are true that restrictions are being applied even to green-card holders, that is an unfortunate misapplication of the law that will likely soon be corrected.

Protesters quickly materialized Saturday at JFK Airport, where some refugees were being temporarily detained.

Who are these people?

“Make the Road” is a NY-based far-left non-profit funded in part by George Soros.

According to Breitbart’s Aaron Klein, the signatories to the lawsuit filed Saturday to block Trump’s executive order included immigration lawyers from groups financed by Soros.

At least one case quickly prompted a legal challenge as lawyers representing two Iraqi refugees held at Kennedy International Airport in New York filed a motion early Saturday seeking to have their clients released. They also filed a motion for class certification, in an effort to represent all refugees and other immigrants who they said were being unlawfully detained at ports of entry.

The suit was filed by lawyers from the International Refugee Assistance Project, the National Immigration Law Center, the Jerome N. Frank Legal Services Organization at Yale Law School, the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), and the International Refugee Assistance Project (formerly Iraqi Refugee Assistance Project) at the Urban Justice Center.

The ACLU is massively funded by Soros’s Open Society Foundations, including with a $50 million grant in 2014.

The National Immigration Law Center has received numerous Open Society grants earmarked for general support.

The Urban Justice Center is also the recipient of an Open Society grant.

Taryn Higashi, executive director of the Center’s International Refugee Assistance Project, which is listed on the Trump lawsuit, currently serves on the Advisory Board of the International Migration Initiative of Soros’s Open Society Foundations.

Reportedly, open-borders advocate Soros has provided some $76 million for immigrant issues over the past decade, as Soros-funded “immigrant rights groups” helped influence President Obama’s immigration policy.

Trump should have someone work with Hungary to arrest Soros for Treason or Terrorism, without bail.

That would be fine, but much better would be having some Israeli Nazi-hunters kidnap him. He’s an admitted Nazi collaborator after all.

Why is Soros still above ground?

Isolated himself from contact with the people and has very good security.

Soros needs to be arrested in a RICO case for funding insurrection and inciting violence. All of his assets need to be confiscated, including his stocks, trust funds, properties, and co-called non-profit organizations. Then he needs to be put on trial and locked away. Even if he gets off the charges, he’ll be poor.
Congress needs to do away with non-profit status except for (non-violence promoting) religions and true charities that spend 90% or more on their causes.
