Nearly a dozen members of the wealthy Soros family collectively poured more than $1.6 million to Congressional candidates’ midterm campaigns so far, The Post has learned.
The donations suggest the clan’s grip on American politics extends even beyond patriarch George Soros and his son Alex, who took control of his father’s $25 billion empire ahead of the 2024 presidential election.
Topping the list of the other members of the clan was George’s son from his first marriage, Jonathan Soros and his wife Jennifer Allan Soros, who together donated $380,000 to House and Senate races all over the country.
Jonathan, 55, a Harvard law graduate who runs private investment firm One Madison Group and was snubbed as heir to the family business for his younger half-brother, met Jennifer, 56, when they were working on Bill Clinton’s 1992 presidential campaign and both have been active behind the scenes ever since.
His sister, Andrea Soros, George’s daughter from his first marriage, who just this week sold a luxurious $46 million mansion in tony West Village’s trendy West 4th Street, has also written checks to leftist candidates the tune of $26,000 so far these midterms.
Andrea, 61, whose husband Eric Colombel runs a Buddhism nonprofit empire, was named No. 2 in “top 10 richest billionaire heiresses” in 2010, with a $14 billion fortune, behind only Michael Bloomberg’s daughter Emma.
A favorite of the only Soros daughter — whose real estate portfolio also includes a sprawling house on 60 acres in Rhinebeck, NY, where Hillary and Chelsea Clinton have stayed — is potential 2028 Democratic presidential nominee Jon Ossoff, to whom she sent $14,000 so far this cycle.
Other politically influential members of the bloodline include George’s oldest son, Robert Soros and his new wife, socialite Jamie Singer Soros, who together donated $40,200.
Singer Soros, 41, who sits on the board of trustees of the Met and jet sets to Turks and Caicos, Paris and Firenze when she’s not sailing at Martha’s Vineyard or posing with Victoria Beckham, married the eldest Soros spawn in an exclusive 2020 affair at Connecticut’s famed Glass House that was featured in Vogue.
Robert, 63, whose messy $350 million divorce with his first wife Melissa Schiff — after he had an affair with a nude model — almost cost him his art collection, runs family office Soros Capital Management.
Even Robert’s children, George Soros’ grandchildren, Yale-educated tech founder Julien Soros, 30, and New York University MFA-MBA grad and filmmaker Eliza Soros, 32, have started getting involved in the family’s political business, together donating $2,200 so far this cycle.
And on the West Coast, George’s Hollywood movie producer nephew Jeffrey Soros, 66, who’s behind Hulu’s “Legacy: The True Story of the LA Lakers” with Magic Johnson and made films with Alec Baldwin and Jim Carrey, coughed up $12,500, while his mother Daisy Soros, 96, who married George’s brother Paul, chipped in $7,000.
The other family members are backing a slew of Democratic midterm candidates that include:
Controversial Democratic candidate for US Senate in Michigan Abdul El-Sayed, who this week received the endorsement of “Squad” Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), and who’s claimed Israel is “just as evil” as Hamas and refused to condemn Iran’s slain supreme leader.
- Democratic nominee for US Senate in Texas, Rep. James Talarico (D-TX), who’s claimed “God is non-binary.”
- Candidate for US Senate in Mississippi Scott Colom, who’s claimed he’s “running a grassroots campaign powered by Mississippians” despite pocketing Soros money for years as a soft-on-crime district attorney.
- Transgender activist Rep. Sarah McBride (D-DE), who became the first openly trans person in Congress and is running for re-election in Delaware.
- House candidate for Colorado, Jessica Killin, the former chief of staff to second gentleman Doug Emhoff, Kamala Harris’ hubby, who just won the primary in a historically Republican district.
Alex Soros, 40, funneled a staggering $103M into the midterms so far, mostly through political action committees in his father’s and his names — on track to beat the election spending record set by George in last midterms.
The fourth of George’s five children, who’s been likened to Roman Roy of Succession in a New York Magazine profile last year and is regularly spotted at New York Knicks games in his signature thick-frame glasses or partying in the Hamptons, married Former Hillary Clinton aide and Anthony Weiner ex-wife Huma Abedin in a glamorous Hamptons wedding last summer and has claimed he’s even “more political’’ than his lefty dad.
