Nonprofit News From Elsewhere Online

A vocal critic of Donald Trump during his first term, the Anti-Defamation League has increasingly sought to work with the White House in the wake of an uptick in antisemitic attacks and campus unrest over the Israel-Gaza war. That stance has led it to bleed staff and alienate many liberal donors who want the organization to focus on its longstanding efforts to defend the rights of others. (New York Magazine)
