Alex Soros Inherits Father's Philanthropic Empire

TL;DR Summary
Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán sparked a clash with the US after tweeting "Soros 2.0" in response to news that George Soros has handed over his foundation to his son. Orbán has long portrayed Soros as a puppet master controlling Hungary's opposition and plotting against the country's interests, fueling concerns that the Hungarian government is spreading conspiracy theories and anti-Semitic narratives. The US ambassador to Hungary responded to Orbán's tweet with a GIF of a woman in a tin foil hat, calling the conspiracy theories "predictable & troubling." The tweet also elicited criticism from European politicians.
