Trump Renews Threat to Investigate George Soros over RICO Allegations
President TRUMP has reiterated his call for a Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) investigation into billionaire George Soros, alleging the philanthropist's financial backing of nationwide protests. "We’re going to look into Soros, because I think it’s a RICO case against him and other people," Trump stated during a Fox News interview. "This is more than protests. This is real agitation."
The former president previously targeted Soros in a Truth Social post, warning the investor and his son of government scrutiny. Trump's latest remarks follow a confrontation with protesters at a Washington, D.C. restaurant, which he suspects Soros may have funded. Soros, a prominent Democratic donor, has contributed hundreds of millions to the party since 2020 and received the Presidential Medal of Freedom from President Biden.
