Soros Spends Big to Help Prosecutor Who Dropped Jussie Smollett Charges

The reelection efforts of Kim Foxx, state's attorney for Cook County, Ill., received a boost from the Illinois Justice & Public Safety PAC.

The PAC received its entire $2 million budget from a group created and funded by Soros.
