President Donald Trump has just announced that his administration has launched an investigation into liberal billionaire George Soros over his role in funding violent leftist groups.
Trump warned that Soros and his network are facing racketeering charges under the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act.
Speaking on “Fox & Friends” on Friday morning, Trump tied the probe directly to the wave of violent unrest gripping the country.
“We’re going to look into Soros because I think it’s a RICO case against him and other people because this is more than like protests,” Trump said.
“This is real agitation,” the president noted.
“This is riots on the street.”
