Crane Praises Trump for Possible Legal Action Against George, Alexander Soros

Representative Eli Crane (R-AZ) praised President Donald Trump for his announcement that he may pursue legal action against businessman and philanthropist George Soros in a post to X (formerly Twitter).

In a Wednesday morning post to Truth Social, President Trump said, "George Soros, and his wonderful Radical Left son [Alexander], should be charged with RICO [Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act] because of their support of Violent Protests, and much more, all throughout the United States of America."

"We're not going to allow these lunatics to rip apart America any more, never giving it so much as a chance to 'BREATHE,' and be FREE," Trump continued, adding, "Soros, and his group of psychopaths, have caused great damage to our Country! That includes his Crazy, West Coast friends. Be careful, we're watching you! Thank you for your attention to this matter!"

The Truth Social post was later shared by conservative influencer Rogan O'Handley, better known as "DC Draino" on X, where O'Handley said, "President Trump is officially going after George Soros and his equally radical son for funding violent riots in the US RICO charges incoming?"

Rep. Crane responded to the post praising the potential indictment, saying, "The Soros Crime Family has unleashed terror on We the People for far too long. Thank you for taking action, President Trump."

Soros, head of the Open Society Foundations and Tides Foundation, is a well-known leftwing megadonor who has been connected to multiple paid protests, including the recent "Free DC" demonstrations against Trump's crackdown on crime in Washington, D.C.

The 95-year-old billionaire is also suspected of contributing funds to the Los Angeles riots in June against Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), but this has not been verified.

However, the LA-based Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights (CHIRLA) was found to be connected to the LA violence, for which Representative Andy Biggs (R-AZ) called for a criminal investigation.

"We are learning that this is not really organic, that this is highly coordinated, and that there is money behind this," said Rep. Biggs, adding, "Some of it is federal grant money or California state grant money, even that has gone to these organizations. They have turned around and used it to create this actual rioting. There is no protesting anymore. This is absolutely rioting."
