I know him and have worked with him in the past. Rolling Thunder is a 501c3 and must stay out of electoral politics.

Just like black churches, the unions, and Soros-front organizations stay out of electoral politics?

Exactly! They don’t play fair so why should we?

It depends on the non-profit status and designation. By law, a 501c3 may spend no more than 5% of it's annual budget on advocacy (politics). A 501c4 does not have the same restrictions and that is what the majority of Soros-front orgs are. 501c6s are foundations and aren't particularly restricted depending on the sort of foundation it is. A good list can be found here.

My guess is that Rolling Thunder is a 501c3 for tax deduction purposes for their donors. The other designations aren't as free with that.
