Palumbo’s The Heir chronicles the transition from George Soros to Alex Soros and the continuation of an activist infrastructure built over decades.

In his latest book, The Heir, author Matthew Palumbo provides a well-researched exposé of the left-wing globalist network developed by billionaire George Soros and the recent hand-off to his son, Alex. Palumbo chronicles Alex Soros’ assumption of his father’s political activism empire and his continuation of his father’s activist path, perhaps even more radical and brazenly public.

Born in 1985, Alex grew up in a 14-room estate in an upscale New York City suburb. He attended an elite private school where tuition for the 2024–25 school year exceeds $50,000.Alex succeeded his father as chair of George’s primary philanthropic organization, the Open Society Foundations (OSF), in December 2022. George, one of the most successful hedge fund managers in history, founded OSF in 1993 to support his philanthropic and political causes.

Alex had started his own foundation in 2012, the Alex Soros Foundation (ASF), that would be a strong indicator of how he would run OSF. From 2012 to 2021, ASF gave most of its $8.8 million in donations to environmental groups and almost half to hardcore leftist groups.

After assuming control of OSF, Alex reallocated much of the group’s resources away from Europe and toward the “global south.” Alex continued, however, George’s longstanding involvement in Ukraine and Albania in an effort to change those countries’ judicial systems to benefit left-wing political positions. The younger Soros also aggressively pushed support for environmental activist groups, announcing a $400 million commitment to support “economic and climate prosperity” in the global south.

Palumbo concludes his book with the following comments about Alex Soros:

The new Soros is just like the old Soros, and the only ways they differ are the ways in which Alex is even more radical, and that, unlike his father, he’s openly boasting about his influence. The Soros agenda is still globalism.
