Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni has directed criticism toward George Soros, asserting that the long-time financier and philanthropist poses a greater threat in European politics than Elon Musk. In her remarks, Meloni argued that Musk merely expresses opinions, while Soros actively finances political entities.

 

During a discussion about her association with Musk, Meloni stated that Soros’s financial involvement in political matters constitutes dangerous interference. "Musk does not go around financing parties, associations, and politicians like George Soros. Yes, that is a dangerous interference in the affairs and sovereignty of nation states. But when it happens, it is called philanthropy," Meloni remarked.

 

For years, Soros, 94, has been a target for hard-right movements in Europe and the US, who accuse him of promoting open borders and financing migration. Before becoming Italy's prime minister in 2022, Meloni was vocal about her belief that migration undermines European cultures and serves the interests of financiers like Soros. "When you are a slave, you act in Soros’ interests," she declared in the Italian parliament in 2018.

 

Meloni’s views align with the "great replacement" theory, a concept popular among the US right, which claims that native populations are being replaced by migrants. However, since assuming office, Meloni has stepped back from linking migration to a Soros-led conspiracy, leaving such notions to her deputy prime minister, Matteo Salvini.

 

Meloni’s association with Musk has been a topic of interest, particularly as she describes him as a "genius" and he has complimented her by saying she is "more beautiful on the inside than on the outside." At a recent press conference, Meloni revisited her critique of Soros’ financial contributions to political causes when questioned about Musk's influence in European politics.

 

She did not address reports that Musk had considered donating to Nigel Farage’s Reform Party last year, although the plan may have been derailed by Musk’s critical stance on Farage. While Meloni did voice a rare criticism of Musk, responding to his derogatory description of British minister Jess Phillips as an "evil witch," she noted that such language is part of the political landscape. "Do you want a list of the epithets aimed at me by influential people on social media in recent years?" she asked.

 

George Soros was approached for comment on Meloni’s statements.

40% of Murders in U.S. Happen in Districts with a Soros Prosecutor | 6 Jan 2025 | Forty percent of all murders in the U.S. happen in districts that have a Soros-funded prosecutor, according to new research from the Law Enforcement Legal Defense Fund (LELDF). The Fund reports that Soros-backed district attorneys now represent a full 1 in 5 Americans, in districts that see 40%—that’s 2 in 5—of all murders in the nation.

So yeah.  Soros is more dangerous.  Just based on transparency.  I don't agree with Musk on a lot of things.  But he's not secretive.

Giorgia Meloni Asserts George Soros Is More Dangerous in Politics Than Elon Musk

Not to rain on your dramatic play-acting, sweetheart, but the most dangerous people in politics are politicians, specifically career politicians and those from political dynasties...

Poor deluded woman. Someone  should remind her that 94 1/2 year old Mr. Soros is infirm and is close to death. He is incapacitated such that he could not attend the Medal of Freedom ceremony. He hasn't been seen at any public event in some time and has had no participation for years in the activities his detractors claim he is involved in.  How does she believe a man in a wheelchair who sleeps much of the day is engineering  this plot of world domination? Is he tooting a secret code as he sleeps and farts?

 

It is fascinating that some people are so easily manipulated  that they will suspend reality and common sense and embrace the claims of self serving political panderers.

The claim is fabricated and unsubstantiated. Because a right wing group makes a claim does not  make it true. Mr. Soros has not been involved in any political  activity for years. Please explain how this incapacitated man has been able to control the election of  district attorneys. Aren't these people elected by the voters? What does Mr. Soros do? Does he roll through the districts handing out beef jerkey and malt liquor in support of the DAs?

 Don't think that kegitgov.org (with their Citizens for Legitimate Government (CLG News) website) have an honest reputation.

 

According to https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/citizens-for-legitimate-government-clg-news/  -

 

 

Besides didn't Musk donate millions of dollars to Trump's campaign.

 

https://www.cbsnews.com/news/elon-musk-277-million-trump-republican-candidates-donations/

 

Yes money does buy political influence as Giorgia Meloni well knows. And as the following website states -

 

Elon Musk remains Trump’s “first buddy” after donating hundreds of millions to Republican candidates and causes. Musk also has billions riding on government contracts, federal regulations, and technology development for his companies Tesla, SpaceX, and XAI.

 

https://www.fastcompany.com/91257772/trump-inauguration-big-tech-donations-list-google-microsoft-meta-apple

 

Apparently his donations are well spent.

 

Elon Musk has drastically increased his fortune in the weeks following Donald Trump's presidential election victory to become the first person in history to have a net worth in excess of $400 billion.

 

. . . his net worth grow by 69 percent from $264 billion on November 6 to $447 billion on December 12, as he prepares to take on a major role in Trump's incoming administration as a co-leader of the "Department of Government Efficiency."

 

Investors may also believe that Musk himself could have control over cutting down on regulatory practices that affect his industries, such as artificial intelligence. Musk's own artificial intelligence company, xAI, has doubled in value since he launched it in 2023, and is now valued at $50 billion.

 

Musk's value also comes from SpaceX, which remains the world's most valuable private startup, with a value of $350 billion following a new employee share deal, The Times reported. Like Tesla, SpaceX could benefit massively from Musk's close relationship with the new Trump administration, as it is a major player in government contracts with NASA.

I wonder how much money Musk needs?

 

It has been reported that Geaorge Soros & family have reduced their political donations.

 

https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/investigations/3254541/soros-pac-cut-spending-2024-elections/

 

And I wonder how many things Musk takes credit for inventing that he actually did invent, or make a meaningful contribution to the invention of?

You can believe that if you want.  I think he's looking at the downward spiral of the MSM (viewership and market value) as viewers lose confidence in them because of all the gaslighting.  And he doesn't want to lose $$ billions.

 Pandering to the financier of the panderers? No. It is just the convenient excuse of  blaming  someone for the failures  of their own government and the greed of their own people. Italy has a migrant problem now because of Italians, not Soros. It was Italy that left a mess in North Africa and it was Libya that created the mess that Libya is today. It was Italian lust for Libyan oil that financed the Ghaddaffi regime and which now finances the tribal war that consumes Libya and facilitates the migrant  flow. Those are Italians prowling the Mediterranean "rescuing" migrants and bringing suit when Italy seeks to  prevent their entry. Those are Italians  who are engaged in the smuggling of people  into Europe from North Africa, and it is the  network of corrupt officials and port workers and others who facilitatete the free flow of drugs into the USA. Let her clean up her nation first and hold her  ciitizenry responsible for their own actions.

 

Italy has one of the lower NATO expenditures at 1.49%, so let's see if Trump can show some consistency and hold her nation accountable. Meloni's foreign policy certainly has not supported US foreign policy, so let's see how that shakes out going forward. 

 

Blaming Soros is a nice attempt to distract from what is ultimately Italian doing.

I challenge you to come up with a causal link between 7/11's and the murder rate.

 

Weak, liberal prosecutors, that's an easy causal link to the higher murder rate.
