Why is no one speaking openly about the Musk, Trump, and Republican end game? They are trying to hobble resistance to their total control by deconstructing our institutions and NGOs, creating financial losses for all but the ultrawealthy, and undermining our capacity for an educated citizenry.

Nonprofits fill in the gaps for government and society. Musk is turning his attention to us. He's realized he can't break the back civil society without breaking us. Every dollar we raise or program we uphold to serve our communities is an act of defiance. Be strong!

Please don't stop covering the people and organizations who are federal adjacent! We're nonprofits that serve our communities, uplift the most vulnerable, and support independent thought and action. We serve America - and reach places government can't! They're trying to break us too!
