Meet The New George Soros

This is a heartbreaking article for me personally to write….

I’ll explain why I just a moment.

For everyone who was hoping that once George Soros died, the world would be a better place….it looks like there is already an heir apparent.

And no, I don’t mean George’s son, although he’s no good either.

Sadly, I mean Steve Jobs’ widow, billionaire Laurene Powell Jobs.

Take a look:

This is a tragic story to report on because I was (and am) such a big Steve Jobs fan.

I loved Steve and I loved Apple for a long, long time.

Tim Cook has been fast at work in destroying that once great company for years now….can anyone name anything revolutionary Apple has done since Steve Jobs died?

Me either.

Of course the company is still printing cash, thanks to the legacy set up by Steve, but Apple is a shell of its former glory.

They haven’t innovated or done anything revolutionary in over a decade now.

Can you imagine what we might have already had if Steve were still alive?

While Cook destroys Apple, it looks as though Jobs’ widow, Laurene Powell Jobs, is fast at work using his wealth to destroy America.

So sad!

I don’t know Jobs’ political leanings, but he strikes me as a libertarian and he also strikes me as someone who never would have been ok with the Far Left Liberal Mob we have today.

Never would have been ok with “Cancel Culture”.

I’m pretty sure of that.

Sadly, that’s exactly where all his money has gone.

Read this powerful Tweet thread from Charlie Kirk:

"THE NEW GEORGE SOROS"@AlexMarlow of @BreitbartNews with a major scoop—thread:

For the past 4 years, a coordinated effort by the activist media has done fundamental damage to America

Remember the Atlantic story that lied about Donald Trump calling war heroes "losers?"

Or how many 'viral' videos dunking on America & Trump have you seen from purported media outlet 'NowThis?'

Or what about the countless 'bombshell' stories in Mother Jones about the now-debunked Steele Dossier that divided the nation for 4 years?

Perhaps you've seen your social media channels filled with stories from 'Courier Newsroom' — an entity described as “the Left’s plan to slip vote-swaying news into Facebook Feeds” under the guise of “hyper-targeted hometown news"

Sounds like election interference to me…

What if I told you they all had one common thread running through them?@AlexMarlow found that thread.

She's a mega-heiress worth $16,000,000,000.

Inside Philanthropy dubbed her the “Least Transparent Mega-giver."

She's the widow of Steve Jobs, founder & CEO of Apple.

Her name is Laurene Powell Jobs

VOX calls her “one of the world’s most important philanthropists”@AlexMarlow calls her the new George Soros.

This is EXPLOSIVE, original reporting about a shadowy network you're NOT supposed to know about—run by a plutocrat tech heiress

She funds the establishment media

She funds the radical, activist media

And she funds the same Democrats they BOTH artificially prop up

It's all laid out inside @AlexMarlow's new book 'Breaking the News' out this week, read for yourself: https://t.co/S2RrsefUOC

And here is more from Breitbart:

Laurene Powell Jobs, whom Vox describes as “one of the world’s most important philanthropists,” is the widow of Apple founder and billionaire computer guru Steve Jobs. She has become a secret superpower behind a vast network of left-wing media outlets, organizations, and politicians. Forbes lists Jobs as one of the ten richest women on earth, with a net worth of around $16 billion, mostly from her family stakes in two of the world’s biggest companies: Apple and Disney.

I investigated Jobs’ growing influence in my new book, Breaking the News: Exposing the Establishment Media’s Hidden Deals and Secret Corruptions, which exposes the hidden connections between the establishment media and the activist left.

If there’s a well-known persona comparable to Laurene Powell Jobs, it’s Hungarian billionaire George Soros. Soros is branded a “philanthropist,” but he also functions as a one-man piggy bank for the globalist far-left. Much like Soros’ Open Society Foundations, the main vehicle for Jobs’ influence is Emerson Collective (EC), the philanthropic outfit she founded and leads. The Emerson Collective, according to Forbes, is “a hybrid philanthropic and investing limited liability company.” That’s a pretty murky description, which appears to allow them to engage in business and charity without ever being terribly explicit about which is which. I’m not sure which of the two categories it falls under, but EC also happens to own the Atlantic.

Inside Philanthropy named Jobs 2019’s “Least Transparent Mega-giver.”

EC functions primarily as a private business owned by Jobs’s personal trust. This shields it from IRS disclosure rules and allows it to more freely engage in political activity.

It’s sly and devious, but considering how many media outlets are aligned with Jobs either financially or ideologically, it’s no surprise that little reporting has been done on these connections.

After all, if you’re in media, she might be your boss one day. Maybe she already is.

The Atlantic published what is perhaps the single fakest fake news story of the 2020 election. On September 3, 2020, editor-in-chief Jeffrey Goldberg posted an article with the bombshell headline “Trump: Americans Who Died in War Are ‘Losers’ and ‘Suckers.’” The piece alleged that Donald Trump, while in France to commemorate American Marines who died in World War II, denigrated American soldiers who died in combat.

Though the content of the article relied only on anonymous sources, was never proven, and was refuted by myriad on-record sources including several Trump-haters, it had undeniable power in the news cycle. The timing was impeccable. So good, in fact, it raised suspicions that the Atlantic had coordinated with the Biden campaign. The piece ran on a Thursday evening, and by the following morning a left-wing group called VoteVets already had cut an anti-Trump ad around it, which aired on MSNBC’s Morning Joe. (You can read my full break down of this “Fake News Instant Classic” and see the rest of the “Fake News Hall of Shame” in Breaking the News.)

Though the Atlantic may be the crown jewel in Jobs’ media empire, it’s hardly alone. Jobs is also an investor in Axios, a prestige D.C. news outlet with an HBO television show. She also funds Mother Jones and ProPublica, both of which are part of the activist left but also does substantial reporting. The Emerson Collective has also partnered with NowThis, a hyperpartisan left-wing viral news video operation targeted at millennials.

Jobs also has funded ACRONYM, a Democratic technology venture, which pumped $25 million into Courier Newsroom, which claims to fund independent local newsrooms across the country. In reality, Courier is much more partisan. Bloomberg’s Joshua Green described Courier as “the Left’s plan to slip vote-swaying news into Facebook Feeds” under the guise of “hypertargeted hometown news.” Left-of-center media watchdog NewsGuard was even more cynical: “Courier and Acronym are exploiting the widespread loss of local journalism to create and disseminate something we really don’t need: hyperlocal partisan propaganda.”

They are right. The decline of print and independent media has created an opportunity for monied partisans to launder their political activism through established media brands. Courier seemingly shows how far that exploitation has gone.

In addition to backing major media brands, Emerson Collective actively supports the Democratic Party.

For example, in 2016, EC gave $2.5 million to DNC super-PAC Priorities Action USA. But Jobs is more than just a major Democrat donor. Obama’s education secretary Arne Duncan and general services administrator Dan Tangherlini are part of EC. Jobs is said to have a “tight” personal relationship with Kamala Harris, who was a California senator before becoming vice president. Naturally, the Atlantic has lavished praise on Harris, barely stopping short of endorsing her during the 2019–20 Democrat primaries.

Laurene Powell Jobs went to the Wharton School of Finance at the University of Pennsylvania and Stanford, she worked for Merrill Lynch and Goldman Sachs, she married well and inherited a lot of money, and her wealth is tied up in some of world’s biggest companies. She is the establishment.

RIP Steve, try not to turn over in your grave too much!
