In November 2018 , Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan denounced Soros while speaking about Turkey 's political purges , saying : " The person ( Kavala ) who financed terrorists during the Gezi incidents is already in prison . And who is behind him ? The famous Hungarian Jew Soros . This is a man who assigns people to divide nations and shatter them . " A pipe bomb was placed in the mailbox at Soros 's Katonah , New York home on October 22 , 2018 , as part of the October 2018 United States mail bombing attempts . The package was discovered by a caretaker , who removed it and notified authorities . It was photographed and exploded by the FBI , which launched an investigation . For several days afterward , similar bombs were mailed to Hillary Clinton , Barack Obama , and several other Democrats and liberals
