A group at risk of losing federal funding under President Donald Trump said it has lost funding that the Biden administration originally denied over its support for a ceasefire in Gaza.
The Biden administration withheld federal funding last year from the Climate Justice Alliance, a nonprofit climate organization, over its support for Palestine, The Intercept previously reported. That group will not receive funding under Trump, who signaled his plans to launch political attacks on nonprofits and reversed many climate-oriented policies on day one.
By withholding funding promised to the Climate Justice Alliance, the Biden administration paved the way for Trump to more easily hobble those he considers political enemies, such as organizers in Indigenous and poor communities working on issues like climate change, said CJA political director Timmy Châu, who now goes by the name TR Rose.
“The outgoing administration had months to ensure these communities most affected by harm would get this money directly,” Rose said. “And now that administration has paved the way to further the kind of carving away of critical public infrastructure and funds to the communities most impacted.”
How long is it going to be Biden’s fault? When does the guy signing all orders get his turn?
It will be bidens fault for at least the next 4 years.
It’s the fault of every politician who participates in this disgusting racist system.
