Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) and embattled pal Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN), but its tax filings for 2025 aren\u2019t yet available.<\/p>\n<p>Control of the dark money Democracy PAC where the bulk of the family\u2019s money went changed before the 2024 presidential election, with the elder Soros handing over the reins of his empire to his \u201cmore political\u201d son Alex Soros, the fourth of five children.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe wants to be more political than his dad, this is the first midterm cycle where he is in control,\u201d Parker Thayer, investigative researcher at Capital Research Center, told The Post.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGeorge is not in control, he hasn\u2019t been in control in some time.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Donations made in the elder and younger Soros\u2019 names were largely in step this cycle, backing many of the same left-wing candidates \u2014 with Alex Soros personally adding another $140,525 to the family\u2019s midterm push.<\/p>\n<p>Alex Soros, 40, sent a maximum contribution of $7,000 to radical leftist Maine senatorial candidate Graham Platner, who\u2019s been accused of misconduct towards women, bragging about his Nazi tattoo and regularly slams the rich \u2014 despite his own wealthy upbringing and lining his pockets with billionaire money. He\u2019s denied wrongdoing and claimed he didn\u2019t know what the tattoo meant.<\/p>\n<p>The fat cat\u2019s spawn also maxed out donations to Jimmy Choo-wearing Omar, who\u2019s been slammed for allegedly knowing about the widespread fraud involving the Somali community in her Minneapolis district. Omar has denied wrongdoing.<\/p>\n<p>He also maxed out donations to three top Congressional Democrats whose names have been floated for a 2028 presidential run \u2014 multimillionaire Silocon Valley lefty Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA), Peach State Pastor\u00a0Sen. Raphael Warnock (D-GA) and\u00a0Sen.
