SAEDNEWS: As part of the ongoing effort by hardline Republicans to rewrite the Russiagate narrative, a member of the U.S. Congress has called for billionaire philanthropist George Soros to be summoned to testify regarding his potential role in orchestrating a conspiracy against Donald Trump.
According to Saed News, citing RT, in one of the most controversial recent positions taken in the U.S. Congress, a Republican representative has called for George Soros to testify before a special committee — a body that some Republicans claim is investigating an alleged conspiracy by security and financial institutions to undermine Donald Trump in the so-called "Russiagate" affair.
This move once again draws one of the most polarizing figures in global politics and investment — George Soros — into a heated political battle in Washington.
George Soros, founder of the Open Society Foundation and a prominent figure in global liberalism, has long been the target of attacks from the political right in both the U.S. and Europe. He is widely accused of funding pro-democracy movements, independent media, and human rights organizations — accusations he has repeatedly denied, calling them part of "anti-democratic campaigns."
Nevertheless, to many of Trump’s supporters, Soros symbolizes what they refer to as the “deep state” or “global elite” — those who, in their view, conspire against the will of the people and American nationalism.
Russiagate refers to the alleged Russian interference in the 2016 U.S. presidential election, which resulted in Donald Trump's victory over Hillary Clinton. Investigations led by Robert Mueller and several federal agencies sought to examine the scope of this interference and uncover any potential links between the Trump campaign and Russian officials.
Although these investigations did not ultimately prove "direct collusion," they did result in several convictions, the exposure of unofficial contacts, and a significant blow to Trump’s political credibility — an episode he and his followers continue to view as a “fabricated conspiracy.”
The recent request was made by a far-right Republican lawmaker known for promoting “conspiracy theories,” filing baseless lawsuits against federal institutions, and offering unwavering support for Trump.
In his remarks, he claimed:
“Soros-affiliated entities played a role in Russiagate; it’s time for the truth to come out.”
To date, however, no credible document or independent investigation has linked Soros to the Russian interference case or any efforts to amplify it.
Political analysts believe the objective behind this subpoena is not to uncover the truth, but rather to serve the following purposes:
Mobilizing Trump’s Support Base:
Reviving the Russiagate case as a “fabricated conspiracy” could inject fresh momentum into Trump’s 2024 election campaign.
Electoral Goals for Republicans in Congress:
Reinforcing the narrative of “elite deception against the public” benefits right-wing candidates in midterm and local elections.
Diverting Attention from Trump’s Legal Cases:
With media focus shifting back to Russiagate, cases such as the January 6 insurrection or Trump’s financial misconduct may receive less scrutiny.
Democrats have called the move a “populist and baseless stunt.” Nancy Pelosi, in a veiled response, said:
“Some of our colleagues apparently prefer spending Congress’s time on myths rather than solving people’s problems.”
In contrast, far-right figures such as Marjorie Taylor Greene have defended the move, calling it “an important step toward exposing the conspiracy against the legitimate President of the United States.”
A spokesperson for the Open Society Foundation issued a brief statement:
“We played no role in the Russiagate investigation. These claims are yet another misuse of conspiracy theories for political purposes.”

Conservative outlets like Fox News and Breitbart have welcomed the subpoena, calling it “the beginning of accountability.” Meanwhile, liberal media such as CNN and The Washington Post have emphasized that such claims lack any credible evidence.
In an analysis, Politico wrote:
“Summoning Soros to Congress is part of a new Cold War — not with Russia, but within the American political system itself.”
The Soros subpoena may also have international repercussions:
In Eastern Europe, populist leaders like Viktor Orbán have previously branded Soros as a public enemy. This move in the U.S. could lend legitimacy to such views.
In Western diplomatic circles, the political use of investigative and judicial bodies undermines trust in the transparency of U.S. politics.
For civil and human rights organizations, the growing attacks on pro-democracy figures pose a threat to their independence and security.
Despite the passage of years, the Russiagate affair remains a critical tool in the battle of narratives between America’s political factions. The attempt to summon George Soros reveals that the far-right is not merely seeking political revenge against Democrats, but is actively working to rewrite modern American history.
In this struggle, truth has given way to emotionally charged narratives. Whether involved or not, Soros has once again become a casualty in a war that resembles an ideological battle far more than a quest for justice.
