National Council of La Raza and National Urban League, among many others gonna lose a lot of $$$. Could you see the blowup at CNN if Sessions and Trump had the same practice and sent money instead of National Urban League, they sent it to the National Rifle Association, Heritage Fund, Right to Life, or American Conservative Union? lol
