Analysis: The Insider digs in on how George Soros and his philanthropy became a global target

In a long-form essay, The Insider—an online publication specializing in investigative journalism, fact-checking, and exposing fake news founded by independent Russian journalist Roman Dobrokhotov—examines how George Soros’s philanthropy became a focal point for right-wing conspiracy theories and political attacks across the United States, Europe, and Russia. The article contrasts those narratives with the documented work of Open Society Foundations, which has distributed more than $32 billion since 1984 to support civil society organizations, education, scientific research, independent media, public health, and humanitarian initiatives, including $25 million in aid for Ukraine.
