The George Soros-led Network Of Billionaires Have Their Hands On Everything — Including The Working Families Party

The Democratic primaries, while still in their early stages, are becoming increasingly intense. So many candidates jockeying for position in a race that, depending on who you talk to, is ripe for the taking by anyone who has the stamina, intelligence, and appeal to claim victory. This election, more than ever, is going to be a marathon; and that means extensive and meticulous vetting for each and every presidential hopeful. Primary season is the time of year where a political party can take stock of where its at both literally and rhetorically — and the same is true for their voters. While there is becoming a clear definition of who among the contenders is not a progressive — but the debate is still raging over who exactly is; and this debate primarily centers around Bernie Sanders and the woman who many not only consider his biggest competition, but possibly the front-runner altogether — Elizabeth Warren. Sanders' progressive stripes have been earned and are more or less unquestionable; and although Warren likes to be portrayed in a similar light, there is something about the correlation between her message and those who back it that doesn’t add up — in fact, the math raises more questions than it answers.

Elizabeth Warren and her campaign have billed her as the “kinder, gentler" version of Bernie Sanders, insofar as her voice is softer, but her rhetoric (she argues) is just as — if not more — progressive. It is with that mindset she intends to set herself apart, and while her polling is up, she needed a firm endorsement; and last week, she got it from the Working Families Party, or WFP. The Working Families Party, whose primary focus is labor and union issues, has typically been an important endorsement for Democrats to have, and so early in the race, it would certainly give a boost — if not credibility — to any aspiring candidate; and it couldn’t be any more of a benefit to someone who’s progressive chops are contantly being questioned. For many, WFP’s endorsement of Warren has been used as a rallying cry for the Massachusetts senator’s credentials. For others, it draws a little suspicion; and taking a closer look at what the WFP actually is — and more specifically who funds them — raises some eyebrows as to not only the legitimacy of their rhetoric, but the intentions of their actions. To understand the WFP however, would require us to understand who funds them — and in that regard, they hold alot in common with some very familiar faces and institutions; and most of them are no friends to progressives. The most prominent of these is The Democracy Alliance, of which a former board member, Paul Egerman, is Elizabeth Warren’s campaign finance chair.

Let’s start there.
