At 92 years old, George Soros, a billionaire investor, has officially passed the baton to his 37-year-old son, Alexander. The youngest Soros has already met with White House officials a dozen times and is more political than his father. He has been engaged with world leaders to champion issues related to the family’s nonprofit, Open Society Foundations, which donates $1.5 billion annually to various left-wing causes.

Soros’s liberal agenda has been highly criticized by individuals like Elon Musk, who urged Alex to step away from supporting radical District Attorneys to reshape the US justice system. Some doubted that George would pass on his top spot while still alive. Soros refused to have any of his children take over the management of his foundation and believed that it should be managed by the most suitable person.
If @AlexanderSoros is serious about freedom of speech, then we have common ground.
But destroying public safety by electing DAs who won’t prosecute violent criminals needs to stop.

Soros’s $25 billion empire will be directed primarily to OSF and has set aside $125 million for the super PAC. Soros has been known for his left-leaning views and progressive activism, which many have objected to – including Musk, who once labeled him as someone who “hates humanity.”
The younger Soros intends to continue the family’s liberal agenda by backing left-leaning US politicians and has urged the Democrats to broaden their appeal to constituents. Soros believes that there needs to be a focus on improving the Democrat’s message and broaden their appeal, including Latino voters and Black voters.
Despite his left-leaning views, Alex has made efforts to bridge the divide in the US. He believes that just because someone votes for Trump does not mean that they are lost or racist. Soros’s decision to pass the baton to his son comes at a time when the left has been pushing its progressive agenda forcefully.
Soros believes that his son is best suited to champion the family’s liberal agenda and continue the work started by his father. Despite the younger Soros’ more political outlook, he agrees with his father’s beliefs and has the same ideologies that he thinks will help his foundation make an impact.
