More than 100 organizations sign open letter as Trump administration vows to crack down on left-leaning funding
More than 100 liberal philanthropies and institutions have issued a letter condemning “acts of political violence” and pre-emptively opposing an expected Trump administration crackdown on ideologically left-leaning funding in the wake of the death of Charlie Kirk last week.
The groups, including the Ford Foundation and George Soros’s Open Society Foundations, denounced the recent murders of Kirk and of Melissa Hortman in Minnesota, saying such acts “have no place in our democracy”.
