Photo by Kevin C. Cox/Getty Images The NBA's top corporate sponsors have donated $3.3 million over the last two years to support the reelection of members of Congress who received an "F" rating by the NAACP, the nation's largest civil rights organization.
Spoiler alert: Kelly Loeffler will get that F rating. This is the same woman who made stock transactions given advance warning of the pandemic. She shouldn't even be in office anymore.
The NBA players have emerged as having some influence. If they focused some of that ire on their sponsors, they could prolly make a bigger difference in the long run.
SHAME, SHAME, SHAME, on every single one of these hypocritical, RACIST corporations that support politicians they know are up to no good. I would like their names to open every one of your daily letters to keep them in the forefront of our minds and hold them responsible for the terrible state of our politics. I applaud the NBA players for their courage and integrity during these dark political times. I am hoping they will lead the way in refusing money from these companies who are paying to undermine our democracy and what it stands for. KEEP SPREADING THE WORD, Judd!!
I am surprized that the NAACP would rate a racist politician like Ron Johnson, who spews his venom each time he mentions BLM such a high percentage he deserves 0%
This is eye-opening. Good investigative work. @JuddLegum
Wtg on being a finalist with your newsletter. You definitely deserve some accolades for all your hard work. You've pulled the curtains back on a lot of companies and made them rethink some of their policies. You sure opened my eyes to the injustices and hypocrisy of so many companies and people. And it's been a glorious 5 months since I left Facebook. Thank you for helping me make some better changes in my life. Congratulations 👏👏
Form, not substance. Once again, there is too much money in politics. We need legislation by Congress to get big money out of politics.
The biggest shock to me? That Inhofe and Cotton are as high as 7% in their rating. That seems a little inflated to me!

How do you as a NBA player juggle that big contract for endorsing Nike products with this sponsorship of weasels like Tom Cotton?
The devil you know lines your pockets...not just in Congress.
Good story, Judd.
How do we contact these corporations with our dissatisfaction for donating to these campaigns?
