The new head of the NAACP LDF is leaving her position with George Soros’ Open Society Foundations to assume her new job. Also, several Baltimore law firms have promised big checks to the NAACP LDF, a group which has fought against election integrity measures in places like Florida, Texas and South Carolina. Happy to publish the names of the firms if you want to email them. From the Washington Post piece: “Taking the top job at LDF requires sacrifices, starting with a lengthy commute. She no longer has time to pursue her broad interests and has given up directing the children’s choir at Mount Calvary AME Church in Towson and her seat on the board of the Enoch Pratt Free Library in Baltimore. She will no longer chair the board of George Soros’s Open Society Foundations. Three days a week, she leaves her home in Baltimore County and lives in New York, where LDF is headquartered. She oversees a staff of 75 split between offices there and in Washington, and she will be responsible for fundraising for the nonprofit, which operates exclusively from donations. She’s off to a good start: Soros’s son Jonathan and his wife donated $100,000 in November — the month Ifill was named to lead LDF. And several Baltimore law firms have pledged five- and six-figure donations for the next several years. LDF’s 25 lawyers litigate about 30 cases a year and participate in several more in a “friend of the court” capacity.”
