According to Daily Beast, during a pretty recent episode of his podcast, Steve Bannon eventually criticized the recognition given to George Soros while labeling him ‘the demon himself’ and suggesting that US President- elect Donald Trump should prioritize rescinding the honor once he takes office. Additionally, the comments of Steve Bannon actually reflect a pretty broader sentiment among some conservatives who view George Soros as a controversial figure due to his significant financial contributions to progressive causes.
The Medal of Freedom ceremony which took place in the month of January of the year 2025 eventually honored George Soros along with other notable figures such as Hillary Clinton and Bono, asserted Daily Beast. While some supporters eventually praised George Soros for his philanthropic efforts and advocacy for democracy, at the same time, several critics put forward an argument that his influence on political outcomes has eventually contributed to rising crime rates in major cities.
