The Soros PACs aren’t waiting for October. They’re already writing the checks.
Abdul El-Sayed won the Democratic Senate primary talking like a reformer. “The fundamental corruption of our politics has been the system that allows corporations and would-be oligarchs and billionaires to buy politicians,” he said in 2025. He wants to “get money out of politics.”
He does not need a check with George Soros’s name on it. Democracy PAC is among Senate Majority PAC’s largest donors. The path is simple: Democracy PAC funds Senate Majority PAC, the super PAC aligned with Chuck Schumer. Senate Majority PAC is spending $30 million to elect him.
On Sept. 28 he is booked at the West Hollywood home of Jeffrey Soros; George’s nephew, and Jeffrey’s wife, Catharine. Hosts include Pod Save America’s Jon Favreau, Tom Vietor, and Ben Rhodes. Guests can give up to $57,800 to his Victory Fund. Jeffrey is the son of Paul and Daisy Soros, whose fellowship later supported El-Sayed’s medical training at Columbia.
He is talking to Michigan. The money is not from Michigan.
El-Sayed is still raising through ActBlue, now under a House probe over fraudulent and possible foreign donations.
FEC data reviewed by the New York Post put the family’s midterm haul at about $102.8 million as of late June, almost all through Democracy PAC, not in George Soros’s own name. His 2022 midterm record was $128 million. They still have weeks to pass it.
Those figures are mid-year. Later FEC reports, and 501(c)(4) filings that can sit for a year, will not catch up until after Election Day.
George Soros handed the political operation to his son Alex, now the husband of Hillary Clinton aide Huma Abedin, between 2022 and 2023. The checks did not get smaller. They got quieter.
El-Sayed can keep reading the latest progressive script. He is running against the billionaires on their money.
