Alex Soros’ Frequent White House Visits Under Biden Administration Scrutinized

 September 17, 2024

Alex Soros, the 38-year-old son of progressive megadonor George Soros, has visited the White House at least 25 times between October 2021 and May 2024.

Soros' frequent visits to the Oval Office reflect his growing influence within the Biden-Harris administration, a period marked by significant donations from his family to Democratic Party lawmakers and left-leaning causes, as the Washington Examiner reports.

White House visitor logs confirm Soros' growing presence, with his most recent appearance at a state dinner.  The event was one of several high-profile moments involving Soros, who has taken control of his father’s $25 billion Open Society Foundations.

His role within these foundations and his engagement with top-level government officials reflect a steady rise in political prominence, building upon a legacy established by his father.

Frequent Visits Mark Key Political Moments

From 2021 to 2024, Soros' presence at key events has garnered attention. In addition to attending state dinners and meetings, Soros has been part of notable political events. His visit to the White House for a state dinner for Kenya, alongside Huma Abedin and Binaifer Nowrojee in May 2024, underscored his close ties to the current administration.

These visits weren't limited to dinners or ceremonial occasions. Soros also engaged in meetings at the Eisenhower Executive Office Building, where he met with State Department official Amos Hochstein twice in May. His connections also extended to Vice President Kamala Harris, having visited her private residence and interacted with senior officials like Ron Klain and Nina Srivastava.

Soros’ Expanding Role in U.S. Politics

Soros’ visits coincided with growing financial support for Democratic Party lawmakers and causes. His family has long been known for making substantial contributions to left-of-center causes, and Alex Soros is following in his father’s footsteps. The Soros-funded organizations have had access to the White House at high levels, influencing policies over the years.

In August, Soros attended meetings with Democrats during the Democratic National Convention in Chicago, alongside his fiancée, Huma Abedin. This presence highlights his efforts to strengthen his influence in the Democratic party, with some speculating that his role may continue to grow if a future Harris-Walz administration takes shape.

Behind the Scenes at Open Society Foundations

While Soros' political activity in the U.S. continues to increase, his leadership at the Open Society Foundations has raised concerns internally. Some employees within the organization have questioned Soros’ approach, citing a lack of clear communication regarding the foundation’s direction.

One employee, expressing concerns, stated, “Why aren’t we hearing from Alex? Why aren’t we having meetings with Alex for him to say, ‘Hey, this is the direction of the organization?’” This sentiment reflects growing uncertainty within the organization regarding the long-term vision under Soros’ leadership.

Open Society Responds to Criticism

Despite the internal concerns, a spokesperson for the Open Society Foundations declined to comment on Soros' frequent White House visits. Instead, the representative criticized the media outlet covering the story, accusing them of spreading “antisemitism and inaccuracies,” without providing further clarification.

This statement did little to address the mounting questions about the future of Open Society and its role under Soros' leadership. While the organization continues to wield significant political and philanthropic influence, the internal tensions could potentially impact its future course.

Soros' Connections to Key Political Figures

Alex Soros has continued to expand his network of connections within the Biden-Harris administration. His attendance at a state dinner for French President Emmanuel Macron and his presence at the confirmation of Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson further demonstrate his high-level access.

These connections, combined with the financial contributions of Soros-backed organizations, have enabled him to shape key policy conversations. Soros’ ability to maintain close ties to influential figures within the administration and the Democratic party underscores his evolving role in U.S. politics.

Potential Influence in Future Administrations

As speculation grows regarding future Democratic Party leadership, including a potential Harris-Walz administration, Soros' role may become even more prominent. His ongoing meetings with key political figures, including members of Vice President Harris’ inner circle, position him as a major figure within the party.

With his family’s history of political contributions and his own rising profile, Soros is well-placed to influence future political landscapes, especially as the 2024 election season approaches.

Conclusion

Alex Soros has established himself as a key figure within the Biden-Harris administration, with White House visitor logs documenting his increasing presence.

His role as a campaign contributor, combined with the influence of Soros-funded groups, has made him a central player in Democratic Party circles, but has also drawn criticism and scrutiny from other corners.

However, internal tensions within his Open Society Foundations hint at possible challenges in defining the future direction of the organization.

As the political landscape continues to evolve, Soros' influence, both within the current administration and in potential future ones, is likely to grow further.
