Why is it so difficult to post links to articles and use the builtin quote block to call out relevant parts? Why is it so hard to understand that text walls with pictures and multiple tweets slow the site's database causing pages to take double to triple the time to render?

i need to post the whole thing even if it was already linked by somebody else because i want the credit for getting the scoop, IT WAS ME, I ENLIGHTENED YOU ALL, STOP MAKING FUN OF ME

Lets do this

President Trump attacks NFL's 'massive tax breaks' on Twitter

One popular misconception holds that the NFL operates tax-free, paying nothing on its billions of revenue. This is simply not true.

For years, the NFL headquarters operated under a tax-exempt status enjoyed by several other professional sports leagues as well as all trade associations, which, in effect, the league office itself is. However, it’s important to note several facts:

• This status only applied to the league office itself, not the individual teams.
• The NFL gave up this tax-exempt status for the office in 2015.
• The league office itself generated “only” $9 million in tax-exempt revenue in 2014, hardly a huge tax shelter for a $10 billion league.
• The individual team owners pay federal tax on all team revenue, from ticket sales to merchandise to sponsorship to broadcast revenue.
• Teams do enjoy significant tax breaks from states and municipalities for, say, stadium construction and operations, but those are largely local issues, not federal ones, and thus outside the president’s direct oversight. (It’s worth noting that the interest paid on municipal bonds issued for stadium construction is free from federal taxes, but simply ending the tax-exempt status on those bonds would, again, have a significant ripple effect on state and local governments and private businesses.)

The NFL opted to change its league office’s status in 2015 in the wake of scandals such as the Ray Rice domestic violence debacle. “The effects of the tax-exempt status of the league office have been mischaracterized repeatedly in recent years,” NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said in a letter to owners in 2015 announcing the change in status. “The fact is that the business of the NFL has never been tax-exempt.”

None of this is meant as a defense of the NFL’s prior tax-exempt status. Why and whether the NFL even deserved that status in the first place is a valid question, but the fact remains: it’s classified across the board as a fully tax-paying entity now. NFL teams’ ability to secure tax breaks for billion-dollar stadium construction is another issue worth scrutiny, but again, that’s a complex, state-to-state issue and one the president can’t affect via federal legislative decree.

The NFL does continue to enjoy an anti-trust exemption, as do baseball, basketball, and hockey. This permits the league to act as a monopoly and speak on behalf of all 32 teams when negotiating, say, leaguewide media deals. It’s a luxury that saves leagues tens of millions of dollars in negotiations, among other benefits, and it’s also been the target of congressional oversight on occasion, but that doesn’t appear to be Trump’s focus. Yet.

+1
And tbh ftmp stadium and local tax breaks still result in large positives for the municipalities that have major league teams. Don't expect the majority of trumpistas to understand, as much as they love their sportsball that was just red meat for them. What Cheeto said =(what he meant) those ungreatful millionaire ******s aren't paying taxes! The owners are siding with the ******s over you the good red blooded white tax payer!



It's still fukk the owners that went out of their way to kiss cheeto's ass only to now be given cheeto's ass to kiss in return.

This is the second time he's gone after them. Oh well, lay down with dogs...

Trump will probably label this “fake news,” a term he claimed he invented. That, of course, is also not true.

Trump averages more than 5 lies a day, report says
He’s now up to 1,318 lies total, according to the latest tally from a Washington Post project.
