According to this Washington Post article, wealthy progressives are scheming to shovel still more millions of dollars to advance their liberty-crushing agenda; with a particular focus on the state level.
A cadre of wealthy liberal donors aims to pour tens of millions of dollars into rebuilding the left’s political might in the states, racing to catch up with a decades-old conservative effort that has reshaped statehouses across the country.
The plan embraced by the Democracy Alliance, an organization that advises some of the Democrats’ top contributors, puts an urgent new focus on financing groups that can help the party regain influence in time for the next congressional redistricting process, after the 2020 elections.

Donor interest in the states “has increased, but it’s a daunting task,” said Rob Stein, the strategist whose work mapping the influence of conservatives persuaded liberal billionaires such as insurance magnate Peter Lewis, financier George Soros and software entrepreneur Tim Gill to help launch the alliance in 2005.

The new state plan aims to replicate the strategies used in places such as Minnesota and Colorado, where well-funded networks of nonprofit groups have helped Democrats dominate politics. Similar efforts are underway in states such as North Carolina, where Republicans in recent years gained control of both the legislature and governor’s mansion for the first time since 1870.
Soros and Co. should know that North Carolina’s arena of “well-funded networks of nonprofit groups” pushing progressive liberal policies is already pretty crowded. Civitas’ groundbreaking website, Mapping the Left, has tracked and identified more than 140 left-wing activist organizations employing an army of nearly 2,000 activists funded by hundreds of millions of dollars.
The DC Leaks prove that Soros has pumped a great deal of money into NC and will continue doing so. I hope NC & the Right in general has an adequate response. Open Societies is disturbing. The documents leaked showed a well-oiled machined that’s determined to destroy the individual liberties of American citizens. Soros and his organizations want to implement a world government. The result is some sort of global socialism or communism. Forced equality is the antithesis of liberty.
