Protests against redistricting were held in Montgomery over the weekend, but, to the surprise of no one, George Soros’ fingerprints were all over the event.
Leftwing activists showed up to Alabama’s capital city Saturday for the “All Roads Lead to the South” rally. Speakers there took turns calling state leaders “racists” over the new congressional map approved by the Legislature in the recent special session.
Riders were bussed in from Oregon, Ohio, and points across the country. The national progressive coalition’s lead coordinator has been bankrolled by George Soros to the tune of $7.61 million.
The organizers weren’t shy about what was going on, bragging about every number.
“We have over 109 buses that are scheduled to come,” Black Voters Matter co-founder LaTosha Brown told WSFA the day before the rally. Buses, she said, from Oregon, from Ohio, from more than a dozen states. The entire operation, she added, had been thrown together in “a matter of six days.”
The new map will likely result in U.S. Rep. Shomari Figures (D-Mobile) being thrown out of Congress, which is unacceptable out of state leftist groups.
The rally was co-anchored by the No Kings coalition — the same nationwide network behind the past year of anti-Trump street demonstrations. No Kings’ lead national coordinator is Indivisible, the Washington-based advocacy nonprofit founded by former Democratic Hill staffers Ezra Levin and Leah Greenberg in 2017.
Indivisible’s funder is no secret. According to the Open Society Foundations; own publicly searchable grants database, George Soros’ foundation has awarded Indivisible $7.61 million in grants since 2017, including a $3 million grant from the Open Society Action Fund in 2023.
The cast that stepped off those buses was equally out-of-state: Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York, Sen. Cory Booker of New Jersey and Sen. Raphael Warnock of Georgia. More than twenty members of Congress, drawn from across the country, lecturing Alabama on Alabama’s politics from Alabama’s own Capitol steps.
While the majority of Alabamians support President Donald Trump’s agenda, politicians and leftwing activists from across the country will use millions of dollars to stop that from happening.
