In recent years, Soros has largely stepped back from active political involvement, transferring control of his vast network to his son, Alex Soros, in 2023. Despite this, his legacy continues to spark controversy among conservatives, who see his initiatives as fundamentally opposed to American values.
The announcement of Soros’ medal prompted immediate backlash from conservative leaders, with Bannon leading the charge. Speaking on his popular “War Room” podcast, Bannon called the decision to honor Soros “a disgrace” and implored Trump to take immediate action upon assuming office later this month.
“My recommendation to President Trump is that you notify today that you’re going to sign an executive order on Monday, one of the very first actions, is to rescind the Presidential Medal of Freedom that’s being given to George Soros today. Rescind it,” Bannon declared passionately.
Bannon framed the award as a symbolic affront to the principles of the United States, stating, “It is a disgrace that a demonic individual like that… dedicated his life to destroying [this country]… would actually be given [this honor].”
For conservatives, this debate extends beyond a mere award. Bannon and others see the recognition of Soros as emblematic of the left’s broader agenda to undermine traditional American values. Bannon stressed that revoking the medal should be a top priority for Trump, emphasizing its significance in sending a strong message to both political allies and opponents.
“President Trump today ought to come out and say, ‘hey I’m putting out an executive order right after I take my hand off the King James.’ With everything else we got to do… number one is going to be rescinding [Soros’ medal] as a symbol. Rescind it.”

Bannon’s remarks are already resonating with Trump’s conservative base, many of whom view Soros as a divisive figure who has used his wealth to push a progressive agenda at odds with their values. By revoking the medal, Bannon believes Trump could reclaim the narrative and underscore his commitment to defending the principles of the republic.
As Biden’s presidency draws to a close, the decision to honor Soros has further inflamed partisan tensions. For conservatives, this award represents yet another move by the Biden administration to prioritize progressive ideals over the nation’s unity and traditions.
Whether President-elect Trump will act on Bannon’s suggestion remains to be seen. However, the call for rescinding Soros’ medal underscores the high stakes in the cultural and political battles shaping the country.
