Tax documents show NFLPA activism goes beyond take-a-knee protests
Even before its feud over the national anthem with President Trump, the NFL Players Association wasn’t on the same political team as many of its fans, judging from its contributions to leftist advocacy groups.
Tax documents released by 2ndVote show the NFLPA donated $5,000 in 2015 to the Center for Community Change Action, a group active in the anti-Trump resistance and bankrolled by a host of liberal foundations, including top Democratic donor George Soros’s Foundation for Open Society.
A member of the AFL-CIO, the NFLPA also contributed in 2013 and 2015 to Working America, the AFL-CIO’s community affiliate, which Open Secrets said spent $1 million in 2016 to defeat Trump.
Working America has since mobilized against the Republican tax-cut framework, denouncing it as the “Trump tax scam.”

Soro's is a convicted Felon, how is he allowed into the USA? Try as a Felon to get into Canada, Israel, Ireland, any other country will not let a felon in.
ReplyDeleteI agree and why haven't the Mosad payed him a visit ?
DeleteAnother good reason to laugh at stupid millionaires supporting Communists. No more NFL.
ReplyDeleteIt is time to use the left's tactics:
ReplyDeleteDemand that the NFL's player reflect the US population. As it is currently configured, it is racist for it to be mostly black. It shouldn't be more than 20% black and needs to include more hispanics, asians and don't forget the left's lgbtxyz freaks. Oh and since so many many teams stink, don't feed us the crap that you are there because you are high level professional athletes.
Make it a constant theme: the NFL players union is racist. Say it until it is believed by all. Because it is true.
This is another reason they should not get tax dollars and get special tax status. Make them pay like any other business.
ReplyDeleteIt is ALL funded by Islam...
ReplyDeleteEnd of story, if you track it the Democraps are also receiving money frmo same sources and the sheep are falling for it.
