In a recent report by Fox News Digital, it has been revealed that high-profile megadonors, including George Soros and his family members, have played a significant role in propelling the political career of New York Attorney General Letitia James, who is currently suing former President Donald Trump. These revelations have raised questions about potential influences on the ongoing civil fraud trial and have sparked criticism from Trump and his spokesperson.

According to campaign finance records reviewed by Fox News Digital, financier George Soros has contributed at least $20,000 to James' candidacy, with two $10,000 donations made in 2021 and 2022. Soros, known for his support of left-wing causes, has been a prominent figure in opposing Trump and has poured millions of dollars into efforts backing President Joe Biden. His Open Society Foundations has also provided funding to various left-wing organizations that have actively worked against the former president.

However, Soros was not the only member of his family to financially support James. His son, Jonathan Soros, donated a minimum of $10,000 between 2018 and 2022, while Jonathan's wife, Jennifer Allan Soros, added an additional $4,000 in 2022. These contributions further highlight the financial backing James has received from the Soros family.

Another notable donor to James is billionaire LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman, who donated $47,100 to her campaign in 2022. Hoffman has been involved in efforts to undermine Trump and has faced controversy in the past for a social media campaign described as "Russian-style deception" during an Alabama Senate race.

California-based physician Karla Jurvetson has also been a significant contributor to James' campaigns, providing at least $67,300 in donations since 2019. Jurvetson, like Soros and Hoffman, has actively opposed Trump while supporting Biden, establishing herself as a prominent donor in recent election cycles.

Other well-known contributors to James include director Spike Lee, former Meta executive Sheryl Sandberg, ex-Google CEO Eric Schmidt, and billionaire environmentalist Tom Steyer.

The involvement of these high-profile donors has not gone unnoticed, as critics argue that their financial support raises concerns about potential biases and influences on James' actions as New York Attorney General. Trump and his spokesperson have consistently criticized James throughout the civil fraud trial, highlighting the absence of a jury and questioning the impartiality of the presiding judge, New York City Judge Arthur Engoron.

Engoron, who has been labeled a "Democrat" and an "operative" by Trump, has exclusively donated to Democrats, according to records. His unique authority in overseeing Trump's civil fraud case, which includes ultimately determining its outcome and penalties, has sparked speculation about potential biases. In a video from several years ago that resurfaced, Engoron expressed controversial views about juries, raising further questions about his impartiality.

Despite these concerns, last month Engoron ruled that Trump and the Trump Organization committed fraud by inflating the value of assets and exaggerating net worth on paperwork used in deals and financing. James, who filed the initial lawsuit against Trump, his children, and the Trump Organization, seeks a $250 million penalty against his businesses for alleged fraudulent practices.

As the civil fraud trial continues, attention remains on the influence of megadonors on James' political career and the potential impact on the case. James' campaign did not respond to a request for comment from Fox News Digital regarding the donations.

This report by Fox News Digital sheds light on the significant role played by high-profile megadonors, including the Soros family, in fueling the political career of New York Attorney General Letitia James, who is currently embroiled in a civil fraud trial against former President Donald Trump. The involvement of these donors raises questions about potential biases and influences within the legal proceedings.
