My blog post in the @theconversation.com was picked up by @chronphilanthropy.bsky.social www.philanthropy.com/article/many...

The Trump admin ordered a freeze on federal grants for aid programs, but a judge partially blocked it following lawsuits. In this OpEd, @dyanamason.bsky.social & Mirae Kim discuss the role of federal funding in the functioning of nonprofits. @us.theconversation.com

Mirae Kim and I write about what a spending freeze would do to social services (it's not good). theconversation.com/nonprofits-t...

Due to popular outcry, Trump rescinds harmful and illegal order to freeze all federal grants and contracts www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

Contact your members of Congress about the illegal impoundment of grants and contracts by President Trump - many of which will impact nonprofit organizations providing emergency relief, educational programs and health and human services. www.councilofnonprofits.org/pressrelease...

Please call your Senators today regarding these 3 nominees for cabinet positions whose hearings are tomorrow. You can use whatever parts of the script you like below. Thanks to @porpentina2017.bsky.social and @sierraclub for information in the script below.

Here’s a New Year’s Resolution: Be on the side that reads books — not the side that bans them.

The Trusk agenda is hitting 535 other people who are accountable to voters.

The double punch of the Jonestown Massacre and Harvey Milk assassination.

Musk's foundation has failed to donate the required 5% of its assets per year for the last three years. Last year that was over $400 million that wasn't donated. #nonprofits www.nytimes.com/2024/12/12/u...

#Nonprofit organizations are struggling, despite their important role in our communities. I'm quoted in this article by @opb.bsky.social . www.opb.org/article/2024...

Trumpnhas suggested his regime will also deport American citizens.

This is good

Second #nonprofit post today. ACLU raises their revenue through individual donations and philanthropic funding.

There are #nonprofits at the center of nearly every news story. This one - alleged financial mismanagement - is a serious concern for the former executive of a multimillion dollar veteran's organization.

You deserve senators that take their article two section two responsibility seriously

Wait, isn't that a "conflict of interest"? (raising hand and speaking from side of mouth).

In my department at @universityoforegon.bsky.social, we hold a drop-in brunch for students during or right before finals week. This year, we also enjoyed a harp performance by faculty.

Gender-affirming health care is good health care. Enough said.

Oh look! It’s a gallery of things I must now order online because it takes 20 minutes to find the Keeper of the Deodorant Key

This was kind of the point. Buy Twitter, suck money out of it, turn it into a misinformation platform, then let it die.

Can I say #ilovemyjob in #NonprofitManagement? Yesterday, my class welcomed visitors from Vietnam's Mekong Plus, a microcredit and social enterprise. @uoregon.bsky.social

As expected.

Trump is slipping farther and farther below 50%. He now leads by only 1.6%—and his vote advantage is under 2.5M. One of the narrower victories of the last 100 years of American politics, and any journalist or politico using the term mandate probably needs to retire from their profession immediately.

And the 2028 GOP primary has begun. Let's see who signs up.

This is an echo of the general election. The trans Democrat is blamed for "sparking" the crisis despite the fact she did nothing beyond be herself. Before she arrived to DC, or made any demands, the GOP preemptively turned her identity into a political issue. So, who is doing identity politics?

Friends, our new Secretary of Education. This cabinet is filled with loyalists, friends and D-listers.

A lot of folks are giving up in advance. Capitulating before a single skirmish. Well, not this old warrior. I’ve seen much worse from the U.S. government in my day. I’m concerned for our country, but not a bit scared of these miscreants. I’m ready to do my part. Who’s with me?

This Russian-style attack on our civil society/1st amendment is back. Don't allow DT to weaponize the IRS against our nonprofit sector to eliminate those groups he deems in opposition to his agenda. nonprofitquarterly.org/bill-threate...

Some discussion of the Ramaswamy (overblown) claims about the (expired!) Reorganization Act (on @goodauth.bsky.social ) from back when he was still a presidential candidate #polisky: goodauthority.org/news/why-the...

Recently arrived to BlueSky and looking for my peeps! PhD in Public Policy and Management, Associate Prof of nonprofit organizations and some public admin. #academicchatter #phd #publicpolicy #nonprofits

Trump is obviously trying to kill the institutions that serve millions of Americans and families. In no way can you see any of these people capable doing the job running these agencies that are defined and required *by congressional mandate*. Write to your Senators today and demand they deny them

Glad to be here!
