Then came one so big, it paid off the mortgage.. “Volunteers at this town’s Estey Organ Museum are used to a symphony of sounds at the former home of the world’s largest manufacturer of pump and pipe instruments….But everybody went silent when peers at the local historical society, having recently banked several […]

    #FBI #Counterterrorism Agents Spent Weeks Seeking a #ClimateActivist — Then Showed Up at His Door

    The visit suggests a possible FBI probe into #ExtinctionRebellionNYC as the Trump administration increases surveillance of #activist groups.

    Jacqueline Sweet, February 12 2026

    Excerpt: "Federal Bureau of Investigation agents, at least one of whom works on counterterrorism, went to the home of a former member of a #ClimateActivism group for questioning last week, potentially signaling a new escalation in the Trump administration’s promise to criminalize #nonprofits and #ActivistGroups as #DomesticTerrorists.

    "Two FBI agents, one from New York’s Joint Terrorism Task Force, told a former member of Extinction Rebellion NYC they wanted to ask him about the group at his home upstate on Friday, an attorney for the group told The Intercept. The visit followed a prior attempt to reach him at his old address.

    "The FBI’s apparent probe of Extinction Rebellion NYC comes as the Justice Department ramps up its surveillance of activists protesting immigration enforcement and the Trump administration creates secret lists of domestic enemies under Trump’s National Security Presidential #Memorandum7, or #NSPM7.

    " 'I believe this to be a significant escalation of the criminal legal system against #XR and find it very troubling,' said Ron Kuby, the Extinction Rebellion attorney. 'This is usually the way we find out an actual investigation is underway and is often followed by other visits and other actions.'

    "The former Extinction Rebellion member, who asked to remain anonymous out of fear for his safety, said that the visit came after a phone call in January from a special agent that he assumed was a scam.

    " 'I was skeptical the phone call was really from the FBI, but after I declined to speak with the agent, she said that she was standing outside my door,' he said. She was actually at the activist’s former address, which he said made him additionally dubious. But last week, when the agents showed up at his current address, he said he saw the agent’s business card through his door."

  15. So far the #nonprofits I've been meeting w/ in my area, & a #Palatka City Commissioner, agree too many are doing the same & getting nothing done in the process. This week I'm meeting with all nonprofits across #PutnamCounty #Florida. We're working on better inter-organization cooperation to better collaborate on programs instead of multiple starting the same project, leading to wasted resources. So resources can be better spent, and bring additional programs and services into the county for those experiencing #homelessness.

    Next on my agenda is meeting with #CrescentCity, #PomonaPark, #Welaka, and #Interlachen city councils; continue meeting with Palatka City council; and get on one of the councils with the the CoC, preferably the LEC since I've been #homeless myself.

    I started a simple investigation into the closure of the only #homelessshelter in our area, and it morphed into a movement. And the more key players are positioning me to the point of contact between the nonprofits, the CoC, and city and county councils. I'm told it's because I have lived experience and I'm younger than all the other key people involved.

    I just pray what we're doing actually works to get another shelter and more services in our county to help these people get back on their feet.

  20. This photo was sent to me via text.
    It's from my friend, Jeff, whom I originally met off of Mastodon, back in 2022. We met in person in 2023 & exchanged plants🪴We've stayed friends over the years. We are working towards similar community building goals, in separate areas of the island. Ideally, would love to have a full food security, localized food systems 'spine', running West-East/South-North, across #VancouverIsland.
    Jeff lives up island with his wife & kids. He also works in #nonprofit #FoodSecurity & #environmental #stewardship. He works for #Greenways #LandTrust in #CampbellRiver :

    This shows some of the work they've done at Maple Park Community Garden in partnership with #Strathcona Regional District. They acquired that land to steward/grow, earlier this year 💚👩‍🌾👨‍🌾👏

  21. House Republicans look to help Trump strip tax-exempt status of nonprofits he says support terrorism

    By ALEXA ST. JOHN and MATTHEW DALY
    Updated 1:37 PM EDT, May 13, 2025

    WASHINGTON (AP) — "A proposal by Republicans in Congress would allow President Donald Trump’s administration to remove the tax-exempt status of nonprofits that it says support #terrorism, creating what some #nonprofits say is an arbitrary standard to financially punish #charities that advocate for issues that don’t align with his agenda.

    "Unusual language added Monday to a reconciliation bill from the House Ways and Means Committee — the tax-writing committee — would allow for terminating the tax-exempt status of groups the administration deems 'terrorist supporting organizations.' The language mirrors a bill from the last Congress that passed in the House but did not pass the Senate.

    "The definition and criteria for determining whether or how an organization supports terrorism are unclear. The bill also targets nonprofits in other ways, echoing complaints by Trump, who has called the tax-exempt status a 'privilege' that has been 'abused.' Trump has threatened to revoke tax-exempt status for groups that don’t abide by his directives or agree with his views."

    [...]

    "Michelle Roos, executive director of the Environmental Protection Network, which represents hundreds of former scientists and regulators, said last month 'we all pay the price' when charitable organizations are silenced based on politics.

    "For example, the move to revoke #TaxExempt status could choke off funding for groups that urge greater action to promote clean air, water and land, work to help communities most affected by industrial pollution and advocate for projects and policies to combat #ClimateChange — among other issues.

    " 'It threatens the rights, health, and future of every community,' Roos said in a statement.

    Last month, Trump said he could target environmental groups and the ethics watchdog organization Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington."

Though some Trump appointees lack experience and familiarity with bureaucracies, #Project2025 distinguishes between executive orders, agency regulations, policy guidance, personnel reorganization, and congressional action—fueled by insider knowledge. It is a clear blueprint to dismantle or repurpose federal agencies and alter their priorities..." nonprofitquarterly.org/how-sta #Nonprofits #NGO
