Conspiracy, sedition, extortion, racketeering etc.
Do you approve of Soros' actions?
Oh right blame it all on Citizens United. While Soros goes unchecked. Again it’s all ok as long as it’s the side you picked.

For what, exactly? What would that indictment look like?
RICO
Great. So let's also indict the Kochs, the Murdocks, the Adelsons, et al, on RICO charges.
why not indict all who are guilty. Or is that (D)ifferent?
Indict them all, if they are guilty. But I think they're ALL shielded under Citizens United.
Oh right blame it all on Citizens United.

Based on the non-evidence provided on the OP's article, I don't see anything illegal.

About as much as I approve of the Supreme Court's Citizens United ruling. Money is speech and corporations are people. Dark money in politics and money, dark or light, affecting policies and laws is not only legal, it's the status quo.

Because you see it as a benefit, it's okay in your opinion
I didn't say I think it's okay. I said, thanks to SCOTUS, it's not illegal. That is, according to the non-evidence provided in the linked article.
So then you don't think it's okay.
You dont approve of Soros' actions?
I don't approve of the Supreme Court's standard set by their Citizen's United ruling that allowed any old rich person to unfairly influence our politics, policies and laws. I am against Citizen's United, which gives Soros the power to use his money towards things you hate.

You should too. It's Citizens United that makes what Soros is doing legal, thanks to the Roberts Supreme Court.
Say it with me "Thanks SCOTUS!"

"The campaign against the philanthropist and billionaire began in the summer of 2013 - but it would only reach its peak two years later in the wake of the refugee crisis."
How is it then that many, many people already knew for years or decades what Soros was up to before this campaign began, where he has his fingers/his money in everything and that such “philanthropists” with their money/influence are a danger to democracies?

So what would make Soros's influence of prosecutors illegal if CU was illegal? How are His actions are campaign donations??? ❓
For decades, Supreme Court majorities have viewed spending on elections as a form of free speech. But they've also argued that certain restrictions on such spending were acceptable because the government has an interest in preventing corruption or the appearance of corruption. So limits of how much money any one donor could give to any one politician's campaign were allowed to stand, because, the justices argued, big payoffs from a donor to a politician could be, or look, corrupt.
The Citizens United ruling, released in January 2010, tossed out the corporate and union ban on making independent expenditures and financing electioneering communications. It gave corporations and unions the green light to spend unlimited sums on ads and other political tools, calling for the election or defeat of individual candidates.
In a nutshell, the high court’s 5-4 decision said that it is OK for corporations and labor unions to spend as much as they want to convince people to vote for or against a candidate.
“By holding, for the first time, that corporations have the same First Amendment rights to engage in political spending as people, the Supreme Court re-ordered the priorities in our democracy—placing special interest dollars at the center of our democracy, and displacing the rightful role of voters.”
Well…. We all read the things they post, they’re not intelligent in any way, shape or form. I find more intellect in a 3rd grader than I do some of these lefty’s. Whoever programmed and brainwashed them did well.

Amazing the left strait up defends evil.
Used to think it wasn’t good vs evil, but the left has gone so far it’s hard to see it as anything else.
