How to Avoid Greenwashing and Trump-Proof Your Nonprofit Advocacy
In NPQ, you will read often about nonprofits that fail to engage in advocacy out of misplaced fear of tax status consequences. That is a real problem, as multiple studies attest. However, many other nonprofits do engage in lobbying activity. According to OpenSecrets.org, in 2024, 522 nonprofits hired a total of 1,174 registered lobbyists, spending over $68 million to do so. But when nonprofits do lobby, are they making sure that their advocates are aligned with their missions?

A closer look at Trump’s EU trade deal
A closer look at Trump’s EU trade deal His game is to intimidate, prevail in the headlines, and sacrifice details in the fine print. Trump desperately needed a win this weekend, to take everyone’s minds off the Jeffrey Epstein debacle. And the headlines about his trade deal with the EU gave him what he wanted. But the one-page “framework agreement,” negotiated in just an hour, left many details for later, and the details contradicted some of Trump’s boasts. The optics were classic Trump.
America Needs Bold, Visionary, and Strategic Joint Force Leaders
Abstract Suggesting we look at how we teach leadership to the joint force, James Browning asserts that we must produce future leaders who are both bold and visionary. Today’s dangerous world demands joint force, DOD, and industrial-based leaders capable of shaping events rather than reacting to them. An effective visionary strategic joint force leader and thinker requires continuous learning, growth, and enhanced cognitive and social horsepower.
Amendment Can Cut the Federal Jurisdictional Leash
The U.S. Supreme Court held that federal-question jurisdiction is lost when a plaintiff amends their complaint to remove federal claims, regardless of whether the case was originally filed in or removed to federal court.

Holocene foraminifera, climate, and decelerating rise in sea level on the mud patch, southern New England continental shelf
We examined Holocene benthic foraminiferal biofacies, % planktonic foraminifera, and lithofacies changes from New England mud patch cores and present a relative sea-level (RSL) record to evaluate evolution of these rapidly deposited (30–79 cm/kyr) muds. Sandy lower Holocene sections are dominated by Bulimina marginata. The mud patch developed from 11–9 ka as RSL rise slowed from 10 to 7 mm/yr; mud deposition began when the cores (69 to 91 m modern) were inundated below storm wave base.
'Useful' old school building guidance poses funding questions
One of the many common challenges schools in England face is managing their buildings. The turbulence caused by RAAC (reinforced autoclaved aerated concrete) was a clear example but the challenges go well beyond potentially crumbly concrete. Many of our school buildings were constructed decades, if not centuries, ago and require careful upkeep to ensure a safe and comfortable learning environment for students and staff.

Review of Just Stop Extinction Rebellion
⭐⭐⭐ Rating: 2.5 out of 5. A timid tale of saving the world and falling in love Just Stop Extinction Rebellion made a lot more sense to me when I read the ‘A word from the writer’ section of the programme after the performance. For two reasons, the first being the writer’s admission that he isn’t a climate activist. And the second when he suggests the play didn’t need to be set in a climate activism group; that it could have as easily been set against a choir or art club.
