Soros spends $2 million to defeat Arpaio
The spending is part of the billionaire’s nationwide push on criminal justice and immigration reform.
George Soros has contributed $2 million to a group working to defeat Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio in Arizona, the latest target of Soros’ big spending in local law enforcement campaigns over the past year.
The Soros-funded PAC, Maricopa Strong, will file campaign finance documents Friday showing Soros’ multimillion dollar investment against Arpaio, along with $500,000 from Texas energy billionaires Laura and John Arnold and $250,000 from Laurene Powell Jobs (widow of Apple co-founder Steve Jobs). The group had previously reported a $300,000 donation from Soros, one of the Democratic Party’s biggest donors.
Soros and his colleagues do good work.
I have no idea how you can call yourself and intellectual and think its a good idea to call for silence about hillary clinton's crimes. He should be calling for more disclosure... before the election.
I have no idea how you can love america and be a conservative of America's ideas and values and think its a good idea to let Hillary Clinton nominate supreme ct justices.
Its like these establishment republican pundits were just part of a show and didn't mean a damn word they wrote or said.

Republicans Better Off Losing by Landslide, George Will Says
Nov 1, 2016
George Will, a Pulitzer Prize–winning conservative journalist who ripped up his Republican card this year after Donald Trump's nomination, says a narrow GOP defeat would be "the worst conceivable outcome" for the party.
FBI Director James Comey's announcement of the discovery of possibly new Hillary Clinton emails last Friday appears to have shaken up national polls, narrowing the gap between the two candidates. But Will said a narrow defeat would fuel "the old stab-in-the-back theory," with party members blaming Trump dissenters like House Speaker Paul Ryan and Nebraska Sen. Ben Sasse for dividing Republicans.
Will, a columnist for The Washington Post, argued that a landslide win for Clinton would help Republicans by giving the party room to distance itself from divisive candidates and from the "indignation industry," as he dubbed it, of talk radio and cable personalities.
Speaking to ABC News' Jonathan Karl and Rick Klein on the "Powerhouse Politics" podcast today, Will said he was doubtful of a Republican win, barring fundamental changes in the party, starting with how Republican radio and talk show hosts speak about certain issues and groups.
"Until the Republican Party gets right with minorities in this country," Will said, "it's never going to win another presidential election."
He said, "The party has to look at its nominating process. It must never again have debates with 12 people onstage at a time."
"I don't know what you do to erect a kind of filter to keep a certain kind of candidate off the stage, but they have to work on their nominating process," he added.
Known for referring to baseball in his columns, Will said of the 23 percent chance that FiveThirtyEight's Nate Silver estimates both Trump and the Chicago Cubs have of winning this year, "I think he's underestimating the Cubs and overestimating Donald Trump."
Will said Comey's announcement about the review of possibly new Clinton emails was reckless, arguing that he broke FBI protocol for the wrong reasons.
"He sends this letter to Congress, saying emails of unknown content and unknown prominence might be 'pertinent' — that's a word to watch for here — to the prior Clinton investigation," Will said. "Something can be pertinent without being significant. That is, it could be pertinent in the sense that it's redundant evidence of what we already know, which was that she was, in Comey's language, 'extremely careless' in handling sensitive materials."
"This is not news people can use," Will continued. "It's of no help to voters. And it's of no help to anyone, so far as I can see."
"It's an old saying our grandmothers told us — don't talk unless you can improve the silence," he added. "I don't think he did."
While pundits and party leaders alike have been calling for updates from Comey in the investigation or a clarification of the wording in his letter, Will said, "That makes it worse, although his silence is bad enough, that could make it worse."
Some 20 million votes have already been cast, Will noted, and at just one week before the nation's decision day, he advised, "I think silence would be golden at this point."
Will is just another establishment guy who is desperately trying to save his little connection with the empire elite. He reminds me of Frum who wrote that a vote for Trump is like cutting off you leg because you have a splinter in your foot. Well David, what Clinton represents isn't a splinter, it's gangrene. So yes, the leg needs to come off. It'll b e painful for awhile, but we have some new technology and we'll get a new and improved leg. Okay, that's a little pie in the sky considering Trump represents the new leg, but here's the bottom line. I rather hobble around on a fucking peg leg stump than die this slow and painful death with the gangrene rot of Hillary.
Jem said Hillary murdered 22 million babies by being pro-choice.
In this election we've seen quite a few politicians and journo-politicians forced to reexamine their ideology and many have realized they are in the wrong party. George Will has simply come out of the closet as a flaming liberal. Its ok, he is entitled to whatever political position suits him.
But don't come back after the election and pretend to be a conservative.
George Will has defined himself as a liberal and he is campaigning for Hillary Clinton. It is what it is. I regard Mr. Will, at this point, to be something like Krugman, a man-child lacking objectivity and willing to compromise his/her character to elect a clearly corrupt machine. The cheesy moral relativists belong to the democrats and there they shall stay.

Trump didn't want their support. He didn't want to be their puppet.
