Billionaire George Soros contributed $6 million to a super-PAC supporting Hillary Clinton last month, according to the committee's latest financial statement.
The investor has now contributed a total of $7 million in this election cycle to Priorities USA Action, which raised $41 million on behalf of Clinton in 2015.
In the last 6 months, the super-PAC raised $25.3 million, meaning that Soros's contribution accounted for almost a quarter of its fundraising haul.
Also making large contributions to the committee in 2015 were media mogul Haim Saban and his wife Cheryl, who gave a total of $5 million, philanthropist Laure Woods, who gave $2.3 million, and investor Donald Sussman, who contributed $2.5 million.
And this is how elections are won. Clinton is getting 6 mill from Soros. For those waiting for the cuffs to be slapped in Hillary, keep dreaming, it isn't happening.

But but but we need big money out of politics the hippies say. Why would the top democratic candidates take big money from special interests?

The Big Wagons are circling around her now. They cannot afford for the Clinton Machine to break down now! Too many people have too much invested. George Soros' own power to manipulate is threatened.
I'm beginning to think TPTB will put a Bush or a Clinton in by hook or by crook. The People want Trump or Sanders, but the oligarchs want a Bush or a Clinton.

It must've just been a big misunderstanding.

So Sanders hasn't financed his career thanks to unions?
Bernie Sanders has broken the fundraising record for most contributions at this point in a presidential campaign, surpassing 2.3 million donations.
According to a Dec. 20 post on Sanders’ campaign website, the previous record-holder was Barack Obama, who had logged 2,209,636 donations by Dec. 31, 2011 during his reelection bid. Many of these contributions are from small donors: according to the Sanders website, the average donation that came in during the third Democratic debate on Saturday was less than $25.
Sanders raised more than $26 million in the third quarter of 2015, according to the New York Times.

Except because of unions, manufacturing in America is nearly non-existent.
7 of the top 10 all time political contributors are actually unions
