Is George Soros part of the deep state?...

I dont think this is a cut and dried, black and white answer. The main reason for that response is I dont think George Soros is a cut and dried, black or white person. You have to know some of his history to understand that, and a lot of what he has done and is doing will make more sense knowing some of his background. Soros has been a major influence in myriad political situations and maneuvers in American politics for a couple of decades, if not more. Without getting too deep (no pun intended...) into his background let me tell you a little about him. 

George Soros, born Georgy Schwartz is a native Hungarian known as an investor, businessman and philanthropist. He was born into a Jewish family, though they did not actively practice the religion. That is somewhat understandable considering the spread of Naziism at the time. Soros survived the Nazi occupation of Hungary and moved to England in 1947. He studied at the London School of Economics and was awarded a BSc in philosophy in 1951and then a MSc degree in philosophy in 1954. Soros began his career working in merchant banks before setting up his first hedge fund, called the Double Eagle in 1969. Profits from this fund enabled him to set up Soros Fund Management, his second hedge fund in 1970. Double Eagle was renamed Quantum Fund and was the principal fund Soros advised. Quantum Fund began with $12million in assets under his management and eventually grew to $25 billion, generating the majority of Soros wealth. It became the most successful hedge fund in history. 

Soros is known as "The Man Who Broke the Bank of England" during the 1992 Black Wednesday UK Currency Crisis. During this crisis Soros sold short US$ 10 billion worth of pounds sterling, profiting $1 billion from the dubious transaction. I guess that stunt eliminated his chances of being knighted in England...

Soros supports progressive and liberal causes to which he donates generously through the Open Society Foundations. The Open Society Foundations is a US-based grant making network founded by Soros. The OSF charter is to support the aim of advancing justice, education, public health and independent media around the world. The 'catch' to that altruistic mumbo-jumbo is the version of justice, education, public health and independent media being supported is that of George Soros. Between 1979 and 2011 he donated more than $11 billion to various philanthropic causes. By 2017 his donations on "civil initiatives to reduce poverty and increase transparency, and on scholarships and universities around the world exceeded $12 billion. He influenced the fall of communism in Eastern Europe in the early 1990's. Soros funding of political causes in  has made him the bogeyman of European nationalists. 

Critics of Soros, who is of Jewish descent have often claimed he is antisemitic. Conspiracy theories about him are boundless, especially amongst conservatives. Paul Krugman, a renowned economist who was critical of Soros effects on financial markets once said, "No one who has read a financial magazine inn the past few years can be unaware that these days there really are investors who not only move money in anticipation of a currency crisis, but actually do their best to trigger that crisis for fun and profit. These new actors on the scene do not yet have a standard name; my proposed term is 'Soroi'." Personally, I think George Soros is a self-centered, greedy, base individual. If I were an Englishman my opinion of him would be far less...  

Until the 2004 election Soros had not been a major contributor to U.S. political campaigns. During the 2003-2004 election cycle, Soros contributed over $25 million to tax-exempt groups purposed with defeating George W. Bush. After Bush's re-election, Soros and others backed a new political fundraising group called Democracy Alliance, which supports progressive causes and the formation of a stronger progressive infrastructure in America. If there truly is a 'deep state' in existence, its creation was sublimated at this point. 

From this point on most of us are aware of the many progressive and liberal causes Soros has funded. No need to name them all, may just the mention of a few names will serve as a reminder. Alvin Bragg, Fanni Willis, Nathan Wade, George Gascon, need I go on...As you can see George Soros has a, shall we say, complex background. Like the rest of us he is a product of his environment. Exactly how all this shaped his current and past philosophies is anyone's best guess. Soros has donated large amounts of money to many, varied causes, some, perhaps many of them honorably moral. Inspire of being a billionaire with current assets estimated at $6 - $7 billion, there are a number of individuals considerably more wealthy. Can you imagine Elon Musk with his wealth having similar political bents as Soros? God help us. What Soros doesn't appear to grasp is most of the world doesn't share his world-view. We don't want to participate in it. We despise his buying political operatives to spread his progressivism. We despise those who are allowing him to get away with it. Yes Hillary, I'm talking to you. You are a scourge George and you need to go away. 

So, is George Soros part of the deep state? One can find evidence of the existence of Jesus Christ, of the Knights Templar, of dinosaurs. But one would be hard pressed to place hard evidence on the table of the deep state. Because that's the way they want it. They will deny it until the end of time. For me, I can see enough evidence to believe it exists. And when I see it, I can also see a hologram of George Soros in the picture...
