From the Daily Caller: Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign reportedly seeks to frame her as a law and order candidate, however, the deep-pocketed donors propelling her candidacy have a history of supporting efforts to reduce the power of law enforcement.

Harris’ close advisers have settled on a strategy of highlighting the vice president’s career as a district attorney and attorney general in California, according to CNN. Despite the Harris campaign’s plans, many of the donors backing her have opposed efforts to empower law enforcement and supported organizations that advocate for defunding the police.

George Soros, the self-admitted architect of a plan to overhaul America’s criminal justice system by installing prosecutors with a more lenient view on crime, and his son Alex both endorsed Harris for president shortly after President Joe Biden dropped out of the race on July 21, The Wall Street Journal reported. In addition to electing so-called reform prosecutors, the Soros philanthropic network has also pumped millions into anti-police groups, including some that have called for reduced spending on law enforcement.

Open Society Foundations, which George Soros founded and Alex Soros took over in 2023, donated tens of millions to anti-police groups in 2021, including Black Lives Matter-aligned organizations that call for defunding the police and the New Venture Fund for the Community Resource Hub for Safety and Accountability, which publishes materials on both defunding and abolishing the police, Fox News Digital reported. Soros also supported campaigns in Minneapolis to abolish its police department following the death of George Floyd.

Two main political action committees funded and controlled by the Soros family, Democracy PAC and Democracy PAC II, have already spent tens of millions this election cycle to help get Democrats elected and have given millions to Democratic super PACs that worked to get Biden elected in 2020, the report explains.

In addition to George Soros, the Daily Caller highlights other major billionaires behind the effort to get Kamala Harris into the Oval Office:

  • Nonprofit head Quinn Delaney
  • Netflix co-founder Reed Hastings
  • Andrea Dew-Steele, another Californian Democratic donor, who is the founder of Emerge America, an organization dedicated to electing women to office at all levels of government.
  • Susie Tompkins Buell
  • Karla Jurvetson

Karla Jurvetson, another wealthy Californian whom the NYT reported is throwing her support behind Harris, was labeled by a Republican operative as a “major funder of the squad and just about every politician on Capitol Hill who wants to defund the police” due to her political contributions to left-wing members of Congress, according to the New York Post. She is also a donor to Color of Change PAC, a committee that works to defund police departments, the Washington Free Beacon reported.

Trump campaign national press secretary Karoline Leavitt warned, “A vote for Kamala is a vote to allow illegal immigrants from all over the world to invade our country, a vote to defund the police, abolish ICE and bail violent criminals out of jail.”
