Alex Soros, son of billionaire George Soros, is facing increased attention over his role in expanding global influence operations through political funding and legal activism.
Soros assumed control of his father’s political and philanthropic network in 2023 and has since emerged as a central figure behind several major left-wing initiatives in the United States and abroad.
Josh Hammer, Senior Editor-at-Large at Newsweek, referred to Soros as “the globalist of all globalists” during an appearance on Sky News.

“You are looking at the heir to the throne,” Hammer said.
“This guy is funding all sorts of the very worst causes, not just here in the United States, but in Europe, increasingly throughout the other countries of the Western Hemisphere.”
Hammer added, “He at this point is hands down one of the most dangerous men in the entire world.”

Critics of Soros argue that his influence has expanded significantly in recent years through support of organizations and political figures aligned with progressive priorities.
These include efforts focused on social justice, criminal justice reform, and democracy promotion, often targeting populist movements and national sovereignty.
One prominent example is the re-election of Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner, who won the Democratic primary this year, securing his path to a third term.
Krasner has received support from the Soros network since his initial campaign in 2017, when George Soros contributed $2 million to a political action committee backing him.
Philadelphia has consistently elected Democrats to the role of district attorney, with only one Republican holding the office since 1991.
Krasner’s tenure has been marked by a focus on progressive reforms in criminal justice. However, the city has simultaneously experienced persistent violent crime rates.
Krasner entered office after the resignation of former DA Seth Williams, who was indicted in 2017 on 23 federal counts including bribery and fraud.

In addition to domestic political campaigns, Soros-linked organizations have taken legal action against the Trump administration.
In May, two nonprofits—Democracy Forward and the National Center for Youth Law—filed a lawsuit against new regulations governing the Unaccompanied Alien Children (UAC) program.
Both organizations have received funding from the Open Society Foundations, a global philanthropic network founded by George Soros and now led by Alex Soros.
The legal challenge seeks to block reforms introduced by President Trump intended to close gaps in the UAC program, which allows unaccompanied minors who enter the country illegally to be placed with adult sponsors.
The reforms were prompted in part by testimony from whistleblower Tara Lee Rodas, a Department of Health and Human Services employee, who warned of widespread abuse within the system.
Rodas said the program has enabled child trafficking by failing to properly vet sponsors.
“We have delivered these unaccompanied children to criminals, traffickers, and members of transnational criminal organizations who are using the UAC program as a white glove delivery service of children,” Rodas testified.
The lawsuit by the Soros-funded groups argues that the Trump administration’s new restrictions place additional burdens on sponsors and could lead to family separations or delayed placements for minors.
As Alex Soros continues to direct his inherited network of organizations, watchdogs and political leaders remain focused on the extent of his influence in shaping domestic and foreign policy.
The growing alignment of legal, political, and financial efforts from his network has drawn concern from those who argue that it challenges the authority of sovereign governments and traditional legal frameworks.
