The founder of e-Bay is a #NeverTrump guy.

“ICYMI, I think Trumpism is dangerous. So I'm personally supporting @NeverTrumpPAC, a rare political contribution during extreme times,” billionaire Pierre Omidyar tweeted Friday. “The @NeverTrumpPAC team is making a difference, and I'm proud to support this group of principled Republicans.”

The e-Bay founder and global activist is donating $100,000 to the NeverTrump PAC, according to the Center for Public Integrity, which broke the news.

Omidyar is the owner of First Look Media, which publishes the crusading anti-secrecy site The Intercept led by Glenn Greenwald, Laura Poitras and Jeremy Scahill. He has also donated to the Center for Public Integrity.
