These are bold and wild allegations from the FBI, which is moving to criminalize organizations like Habitat for Humanity for receiving grants from the EPA.
In a court filing, Citibank disclosed that it had been directed by the FBI to freeze the bank accounts of these groups.

This seems to be an emerging trend... Let's hope it continues to happen.
Some good news! Still not clear what the longer term implications will be. But very encouraging.

Trump: Gutting National Parks—And Hiding the Evidence
National parks hit 331M visits, but Trump officials don’t want you to know. A leaked memo bans the Park Service from promoting the numbers—while firing rangers, closing visitor centers, and cutting safety.
This won’t go well—we love our parks.

The program forgives the loans of borrowers who work in public service. The executive action would exclude those who work for certain organizations.

Nobody in #generationx expected to get #socialsecurity anyway, but all of those paycheck deductions taken year after year (when I struggled to pay rent and ate only beans for months at a time) going straight into the pocket of the world's richest man is infuriating!

It’s the 60th Anniversary of “Bloody Sunday” at Selma, and thus the 10th anniversary of President Obama’s speech there, my favorite of all his public oratory, although it reads differently now. 🧵

For all the TRUMP = STRONG propaganda this is *exactly* what his “leadership” was like in Covid. Constant zigging and zagging, self-contradictory, incapable of commitment, wanting to have it both ways. It was a disaster!
This is what weak, flailing leadership looks like. His inability to make meaningful change in areas like this explains the desperate, authoritarian bluster of his largely illegal Executive Orders. This is the sort of leader who opposing politicians should definitely NOT cater to.
"The decision is a significant reversal by Trump, who on Tuesday had announced the largest tariff increase in a century only to back down 48 hours later as stocks were hammered and Republicans expressed concern about the economic consequences." Story: www.bloomberg.com/news/article...
