NFL Players Union Partnered with George Soros-Backed Groups to Bankroll Anti-Trump Leftist Advocacy Organizations - Breitbart
If you ever wondered why the NFL Players Association has never cracked down on their players, for disrespecting the flag and advocating leftist politics. It turns out that’s because the NFLPA is every bit as radical as their players.
In tax documents recently released by 2ndVote, a conservative watchdog group, we learn that the NFL Players Association (NFLPA) made a donation of $5,000 in 2015 to the Center for Community Change Action, a George Soros funded and adamantly anti-Trump organization.
Yet, that just scratches the surface of the NFLPA’s dealings and donations to the extreme left.
In 2013 and 2015, the NFLPA also contributed to the AFL-CIO’s community affiliate, Working America. This group, according to Open Secrets, contributed $1 million to defeat President Trump during the 2016 election. However, the group’s anti-Trump activities were not limited to the election. According to the Washington Times, “Working America has since mobilized against the Republican tax-cut framework, denouncing it as the “Trump tax scam.”
In a quote given to the Washington Times, 2ndVote described the apparent philosophy behind the NFLPA’s donations: “Clearly, ‘social activism’ by NFL players includes aligning with George Soros and other liberal organizations like Planned Parenthood in support of the left’s agenda.”
Up until this point, most of the NFL social activism that fans were aware of consisted of players kneeling on the field. Now, after that nationally televised statement of “resistance,” we get a glimpse of the social activism going on behind the scenes. Much of it, if not all, happening with the fan’s money.
