“We are committed to conducting a thorough internal review of our program and processes,” he said.

Despite the Texas Organizing Project's self-admittedly imperfect bail screening process, the group still received millions in support from liberal nonprofits.

The Open Society Policy Center of the Soros Philanthropic Network and the Foundation to Promote Open Society Together sent nearly $1.3 million to the Texas Organizing Project between 2019 and 2021.

The Sixteen Thirty Fund and the Nord Fund, both 501(c)(4) dark money pools in the network of nonprofits managed by the for-profit firm Arabella Advisors, collectively gave $450,000 to the Texas Organizing Project between 2014 and 2021.

Arabella's network was not the only major liberal nonprofit NGO group to support the Texas Organizing Project.

The Tides Foundation and Tides Advocacy gave approximately $340,000 to the Texas Organizing Project between 2018 and 2021.

“The violence earlier this week in Texas is horrific and tragic,” an Open Society Foundations spokesperson told the Daily Caller News Foundation. “We share the sentiments expressed in the Texas Organizing Project's statement and support the decision to review their programs.”

Soros has spent millions to elect prosecutors all over the country who have been accused of being soft on crime and allowing criminals to remain in communities, worsening public safety.
