The ACLU has it even better than that. There is a law on the books that allows for "recovery" of costs for "public interest" lawsuits. Believe it or not your Federal Government PAYS activist groups like the ACLU to sue it. This funding of the hard-line communist left masquerades as "legal assistance to the poor." That's right Virginia, you and me are paying for the ACLU's vicious assault on America.

And where are the politicians on this? Even the Republicans are too cowed by the MSM to correct this travesty.

I looked at the 990 for the ACLU Foundation of NJ, and they claim $0 for "Government contributions (grants)".

They also claim investment income, and are supposed to declare what they're invested in, but didn't in '04, the only year I looked. They also filed a 3-month extension though, so may have at that time.
