"The clinic ... run by the Christian, Maryland-based humanitarian organization World Relief and funded by USAID, provided a key weapon in the fight: IV bags to stave off dehydration and death. The bags cost just 62 cents each, and in three months, the clinics had helped save more than 500 people."

Yep. The biggest threat to the GOP are GOP voters, and no one is trying to suppress their vote.

I used to worry about civil war. Now I worry about the US being the site of a proxy war and potentially more.

Immunity for the executive now creates a terrible double standard that that will actually foster obedience to illegal commands

The MAGA twist on forum shopping is maybe more wretched than imagined.

There is something very GenX about this: gizmodo.com/ai-powered-t...

Kavanaugh visiting the Queen City, so I see.

Grade: C- Josh is very bright and quick of thought but often does not spend enough time on his assignments.

On this day in 1830, North Carolina passed laws that criminalized teaching enslaved Black people to read and that made the repeated dissemination of anti-slavery pamphlets punishable by death.

Can confirm.

A competent democrat with good messaging can parlay this into a victory in red districts. newrepublic.com/article/2021...

Isn’t this also a national security nightmare? Exposing the bones of the White House for all to see?

Guess it’s time to increase my rates.

Specifically, nonprofit clients.

The whole administration is now subject to arrest.

The Trump Administration’s “Compact of Excellence” for Universities is... far from excellent! Indeed, it’s unconstitutional. In this post, let me count the ways. blog.dividedargument.com/p/the-uncons...

Posting this three hours before the start of Yom Kippur is quite a choice

this is basically portland's version of a haka

Chilling stuff.

Lawyer friends, consider volunteering and spreading the word. The eye of Sauron is turning to nonprofits and civil society. nonprofitdefense.org

I thought sketch comedy was illegal now.

This may explain why there’s an aggressive response to people who merely post Kirk’s own words. It threatens the existence of the alternate Kirk - the motivational speaker that had been marketed to young kids and white Christian groups through selective quotation & clips.

Weirdly, I left Facebook for good the day Kirk was killed because I had noticed a disturbing increase of random content clearly created to foment divide. Someone is paying a lot of money to poison the well.

It has never been the “left” that fantasizes about civil war.

Kirk was vile but his assassination much more so. Not being discussed yet: a head/neck shot at 200 yards requires skill, training, and the right equipment. This was not a random angry lefty.

Kavanaugh in 2023 in the argument on Biden’s loan forgiveness: “Some of the biggest mistakes in the Court’s history were deferring to assertions of executive emergency power. Some of the finest moments in the Court’s history were pushing back against presidential assertions of emergency power.”

Citation needed.

Guess what? The endowment tax is unconstitutional for the very same reasons.

Would resulting defamation suits necessitate the release of the Epstein files or could DOJ continue to withhold?

Bro, our ancestors also thought it was cool to own other people and force them to work at the pain of death.

I had an entire therapy session devoted to this sentence

Religious non-profits need to sue - this is a requirement to discriminate in the provision of aid. And if they cannot stop this policy, they should forego government grant money rather than agree to turn away people in need because the government disfavors them

Trump administration moves to bar states and even private (!) nonprofits, such as Red Cross, from helping undocumented immigrants after disasters. Evil. s2.washingtonpost.com/4467742/68af...

reiterating what i said earlier today at #nabj25: support student journalism and student media in anyway you can. they stay on folks’ necks.

Wonder how the @nytimes.com will spin this?

“Big First Amendment stakes” is a funny way to say “a blatant First Amendment violation.” Either that or it’s really good Pepper Brooks energy.

A shameful display of cowardice by the nation's largest law firms. This article should be required reading in every law school ethics class in the country. If you are a partner at one of these firms, know that the money will never be enough to wash away the stain. www.reuters.com/investigatio...

The board for which is led by Chief Justice John Roberts

So shareholders are paying for the tariffs?

I do not like this framing at all. The tax increase was on annual net income, not corpus, and the tax simply reduced a foundation’s payout requirement by that same amount.

Remember when the right accused the left of being arrogant?

The latest edition of our nonprofit layoff tracker finds that nonprofits shed 3,130+ jobs in June, bringing the total number of workforce reductions across the sector to at least 23,000 since Inauguration Day. Read the full story: phlnthrp.com/4lWsGHK

This includes a projected $344 million needed to fight legal battles with contractors who have been stiffed, and staff who have been terminated illegally.

MY GOD President Trump just posted “everyone should immediately evacuate Tehran.”

More evidence that the university endowment and foundation excise taxes are, in fact, taxes on speech.

As the Senate takes up the Big Bill, here are some thoughts on its impact on #nonprofits and #philanthropy

In May, nonprofits cut another 3,900+ jobs, bringing total documented layoffs to almost 20,000 since Inauguration Day. Head Start programs, health clinics, and international organizations continue shedding staff. Read today's update to the Chronicle's Nonprofit Layoff Tracker: phlnthrp.com/4jKLXKs

This ain’t good, folks… Why are we hearing about this, days later?
