Soros Money Financed Communist Van Jones
By Cliff Kincaid Tuesday, September 15, 2009
When the list of donors to the Van Jones “Green for All†organization is examined, one name stands out-the Open Society Institute of billionaire George Soros. The Green for All 2008 annual report is also notable for the pictures of the powerful people who associated with Jones. They include House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and former Vice President Al Gore.
While the Open Society Institute was supporting Green for All in 2008, when Jones was running it, the Soros-funded organization was financially underwriting the Ella Baker Center for Human Rights when Jones was in charge of that group. The Open Society Institute gave the Ella Baker Center $151,800 in 2006 and $140,000 in 2007. Jones ran this group during the years 1996-2007. He then emerged as a senior fellow at the Soros-funded Center for American Progress.
Other funders of the Green for All group included Gore’s Alliance for Climate Protection, the Rockefeller family, Men’s Warehouse, the Natural Resources Defense Council, the New World Foundation, the Schwab Charitable Fund, the Streisand Foundation, the Service Employees International Union, and the Tides Center and Foundation.
Soros Money Financed Communist Van JonesGreat read. The Canada Free Press does some outstanding investigative journalism, something that disappeared from the U.S. years ago.
Obama may be the front man, but I'm still convinced that Soros is the puppet-master. The man behind the curtain ala The Wizard of Oz. Amazingly, most people have never heard of him, which is exactly the way he likes it.
