Soros-Funded Organization, “Invisible,” Spearheads Government Shutdown Agenda

By The Blog Source

A left-wing organization receiving millions of dollars from George Soros' Open Society Foundations is urging Senate Democrats to start a government shutdown. To exert pressure on lawmakers to reject bipartisan funding agreements that would keep the government open past Tuesday, the group Indivisible is leveraging online resources. Since 2016, Soros' Open Society Foundations has given Indivisible more than $7.6 million to support the anti-Trump "No Kings" demonstrations.

The group makes pre-written scripts available on its website, urging Democratic senators to deny Donald Trump the blank checks Republicans want to hand him. Democrats "must reject the Soros-funded pressure from the radical left," a White House insider told the Daily Caller News Foundation, accusing the group of seeking "over a trillion dollars in new spending" and "health care for illegal aliens."

The Daily Caller reported that Indivisible, an activist network supported by Soros, is spearheading an effort to persuade Senate Democrats to thwart a bipartisan agreement to fund the government before Tuesday's deadline. The organization, which gained notoriety during the anti-President Donald Trump "resistance" campaign, is now instructing followers to bombard Democratic offices with calls urging lawmakers to "fight like hell" to stop what it refers to as a "blank check" for Trump's government.

By presenting the budget fight as a moral test for Democrats, Indivisible's online form provides activists with talking points. According to the form, Republicans need Democratic votes to end the filibuster and prevent a government shutdown on September 30, when federal funding expires. 

For the past eight years, George Soros' Open Society Foundation has awarded grants totaling over $7.6 million to the campaign's nonprofit affiliate, Indivisible Project. Founded by Soros in 1993 and currently led by his son Alexander, OSF has long been a significant source of funding for lobbying for progressive policies throughout the United States.

When Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer voted to keep the government open in March, Indivisible accused him of "rolling over." At a subsequent gathering, the organization called for new leadership in the Democratic caucus and urged people to mail Schumer's "retirement cards." After publicly criticizing Schumer at the time, New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez sparked rumors that she might run against him in 2028. A left-leaning Data for Progress survey, which showed her ahead of the incumbent by almost 20 points, supported this rumor.

A Republican-led continuing resolution (CR) to finance the government through November 21 was just passed by the House, but it was defeated in the Senate by Democrats who would not support the bill without more progressive features.

"Senate Democrats must reject the Soros-funded pressure from the radical left and pass the clean CR," a White House official told the Daily Caller News Foundation. Democrats will "own this shutdown and put law enforcement at risk, cut WIC benefits for mothers and children, and threaten health care for seniors" if they "cave in to their extremist base," the Insider warned.

To reach a compromise before the deadline, President Trump will meet with Schumer, Senate Majority Leader John Thune, Speaker Mike Johnson, and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries on Monday.
