“I am for socialism, disarmament and ultimately for abolishing the state itself as an instrument of violence and compulsion. I seek the social ownership of property, the abolition of the propertied class and sole control of those who produce wealth. Communism is the goal.”

— Roger Nash Baldwin, ACLU co-founder
Wonder what would turn up if these new donations were audited? Cannot all be legal.

Whatever.

I’m SO GLAD our side isn’t bragging about funds coming in to fight the administration and protests abounding.

Or whatever.

I’d MUCH MUCH MORE rather have the presidency.

The Left will make its last stand in the Courts. Losing strategy. It will not alter policy or ultimate outcomes.

Two thoughts, I wonder if the they are anything like those “charities” where the top people get lots of money, fly private jets and stay at The Four Seasons. Also, with the mindset of the people involved it is easy to cross the line from legal advocacy to terrorist enabler. If, say, they fund a “spontaneous” protest where paid protesters kill somebody. No, paying protestors isn’t the sort of thing they should be doing, but when an organization gets large and suddenly has lots of money it’s hard to know what individuals are actually doing and some of them are looney.

I’ve also noticed ads from AARP trying to capitalize on Trump’s success by pretending they are conservative and supportive of America. (all of the sudden)

The ACLU receives tax payer funding. With the increase in donations Congress should eliminate any tax payer funds to go to the ACLU.

Lies. The ACLU is experiencing the same kinds of declines labor unions are. People have wised up to the fact that it is nothing more than a hypocritical communist front.

Prolly the only tithes the godless leftists pay is to the unholy temple of the ACLU. Throw in Planned Parenthood too for additional offerings.

When I read upsetting crap like this I remember God's promises to President Trump. ..." no weapon formed against you shall prosper against you !" "If God is for us who can be against you !" If you have faith as small as a mustard seed you can say to this mountain move and it shall be moved!

That's all we have to stand upon, is faith and the promises from God. I know sometimes we feel like the whole world has lost its mind against our president, and some days we feel discouraged, defeated, overwhelmed, and think that America is a lost cause... that we have gone so over the cliff we are just waiting to hit the ground! But through all of this we must stand firm believing that somehow someway God will make a path where there seems to be no way or a barrage of evil! ...... Faith is the confidence that what we hope for will actually happen and the assurance of things we cannot see.

The ACLU should be investigated for all sorts of things and it’s members and donators held to full account.

The ACLU donor list would be useful in identifying those that need to be rounded up and “re-educated”.

Hate is a big driver of donations but will soon wear off as the left losses continue to pile up.

Whenever I hear of the ACLU, I immediately think of someone who has a ragged suit, dirty shoes, uncombed hair and needs a shave. And don’t get me started about their male attorneys.

So why do they still get federal funding in violation of my free speech?
