ROTG137 Politically Motivated Attacks Revisited Nonprofit advocates face a complex environment in 2025 where political disagreements routinely escalate into targeted attacks—ranging from carefully crafted misinformation to more extreme tactics like organizational funding cuts, subpoenas, and personal targeting. This episode explores the emerging challenges advocates encounter, offering insights into recognizing, preparing for, and navigating these increasingly sophisticated forms of political pushback. Attorneys for this Episode Brittany Hacker Tim Mooney Quyen Tu Evolution of Political Attacks This isn't the first time we've covered this topic—we discussed it back in earlier episodes when attacks primarily came from private organizations and non-governmental entities like Project Veritas. What's changed is the increasing use of official government investigative authority against tax-exempt organizations, including: Current Landscape: Government Investigations & Bad Faith Actors Executive Orders from the Trump administration Universities under attack and scrutiny Government agencies: Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) State Attorneys General investigations (particularly from those seeking higher office) New techniques utilizing official power with minimal basis for investigation The key challenge: These officials have great investigative power and can exercise it with the slimmest basis, using bad faith political attacks against organizations doing good community work they simply disagree with. Examples of Great Advocacy in Response Despite these attacks, many nonprofits have stepped up their advocacy: Challenging the administration in court Almost every executive order has faced legal challenges Many nonprofits have teamed up for court cases Some challenges have been successful, others ongoing Calling out attacks for what they are Naming attacks as politically motivated and in bad faith Pointing out reliance on dubious information This approach has met with significant success Solidarity in numbers Some law firms and universities initially settled with the administration Others joined together and refused to settle or capitulate Finding strength in solidarity and continuing their missions Funder support stepped up Funders creating new short-term grants Establishing legal defense funds Providing pro bono services for nonprofits Some funders publicly increased funding; others acted quietly but effectively Being Prepared: Your Best Defense Legal and Administrative Compliance The best defense is ensuring full compliance with all applicable laws so you can advocate with confidence. Advocacy Check-Up Tool: Our nonprofit self-assessment (13-page document available free on our website) Identifies opportunities to enhance compliance with tax, lobbying, election, and other laws Provides starting place to assess existing systems Helps prepare for attorney meetings with specific checklist items Key compliance areas to review: How your 501(c)(3) remains nonpartisan Staying within lobbying limits for C3 public charities Ensuring all reporting is current (IRS, FEC, local ethics commissions) Checking insurance coverage (directors & officers, liability) Board setup and bylaw compliance Document management: Store foundational documents electronically in the cloud Maintain excellent records: Clear, accurate documentation to easily prove legal compliance when needed Organizational Readiness and Communications Planning Beyond legal compliance, you need comprehensive preparation: Identify vulnerabilities: What might attackers say about your work? Communications strategy: Have a plan for public response Election season policy: Clear guidelines for staff activities Document retention policy: Know what to keep and for how long Staff training: Especially public-facing staff and volunteers Train them to recognize unusual questions outside normal scope Establish "odd question point person" to defer to Response protocols: Know what to do if attacked Legal counsel: Have a lawyer you can call or know who to contact Most Important: Don't Self-Censor Remember these are bad faith attacks. You aren't doing anything wrong. They're trying to: Separate you from your funders Separate you from your supporters Make you stop your advocacy work Avoid engaging on the substance of your work Don't fall for the trap of stopping your advocacy just because they claim you're doing something wrong. If your compliance is solid and you have a communications plan, you've likely done nothing wrong—keep doing your important work. If You Are Attacked: Response Strategy Initial Response: Don't Overreact Reassure everyone: Staff, board, key supporters that you have a plan and are executing it Share with allies: Touch base with coalitions and peer organizations Attacks often target multiple similar organizations Share what you're experiencing and your response plans Ask for help: Learn from others who've been through this; consult funders and foundations Fact-Finding and Gap Analysis Get clear on accusations: What specifically are they claiming? Assess the facts: What do you know vs. don't know? Close any gaps: You don't have to be perfect Retrain staff if needed Amend reports if necessary Address any legitimate compliance issues Response Protocol for Official Investigations When facing government actors: Request identification and documentation: Ensure it's a legitimate governmental agency with authority (warrant/subpoena) Preserve all evidence: Don't destroy documents, emails, or other records Don't obstruct government action but monitor their work (like supervising a contractor in your house) Protect privileged information: Seek legal advice on confidential/privileged materials Designate spokesperson: One staff member communicates with government actors and public to avoid conflicting messages Legal Support and Defense Seek counsel for preparation: Some aspects you can handle alone, others need legal guidance Retain counsel for formal responses: Essential for official investigations Investigate legal defense funds: If budget is tight, these are increasingly available Staying on Offense: Reframe the Narrative With a good plan in place, you can be on offense instead of defense: Call political attacks what they are Feel confident in your legal compliance Ensure staff feel safe and confident by sharing/reviewing your plan Continue your great advocacy work because you're in compliance with laws Special Thanks to Funders Shout out to funders who have stepped up during these attacks: Some have been very public about increasing funding Many have acted quietly without spotlight Both approaches are important and appreciated Creating new funding mechanisms and legal defense funds Resources Advocacy Check-Up: Nonprofit Self-Assessment Essential Strategies for Navigating Government Inquiries (Perkins Coie) Search Warrants: Dos and Don'ts (Perkins Coie) Sample 501(c)(3) Policy for Election Season Election Activities of Individuals Associated with 501(c)(3)s Practical Guidance Series: Lobbying Practical Guidance Series: Nonprofit Voter Assistance On-Demand Training: Preparing for Politically Motivated Attacks

Across EMEA, Artificial Intelligence (AI) is redefining industries, inspiring innovation, improving operations, and driving, growth. Government and Irish businesses are embracing and capitalising on AI's potential to enhance customer experiences and gain a competitive advantage. But as adoption accelerates, new security challenges arise, demanding vigilant attention to protect these investments. Forecasts indicate that AI could contribute trillions to the global economy by 2030, with Ireland well-positioned to capture a significant share of this value. According to Dell Technologies' Innovation Catalyst Study, 76% say AI and Generative AI (GenAI) is a key part of their organisation's business strategy while 66% of organisations are already in early-to mid-stages of their AI and GenAI journey. As AI becomes more embedded in everything from customer management to critical infrastructure, safeguarding these investments and tackling the evolving cyber threat landscape must be a priority. To that end the success of integrating AI in the region depends on addressing three critical security imperatives: managing risks associated with AI usage, proactively defend against AI-enhanced attacks, and employing AI to enhance their overall security posture. Managing the Risks of AI Usage Ireland as a digital hub within the EU, must navigate the complex regulatory environment like the Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA), NIS2 Directive, the Cyber Resilience Act and the recently launched EU AI Act. These frameworks introduce stringent cybersecurity requirements that businesses leveraging AI must meet to ensure resilience and compliance. AI's reliance on vast amounts of data presents unique challenges. AI models are built, trained, and fine-tuned with data sets, making protection paramount. To meet these challenges, Irish organisations must embed cybersecurity principles such as least privilege access, robust authentication controls, and real-time monitoring into every stage of the AI lifecycle. However, technology and implementing these measures effectively isn't enough. The Innovation Catalyst Study highlighted that a lack of skills and expertise ranks as one of the top three challenges faced by organisations looking to modernize their defenses. Bridging this skills gap is vital to delivering secure and scalable AI solutions because only with the right talent, governance, and security-first mindset can Ireland unlock the full potential of AI innovation in a resilient and responsible way. A further step that Irish businesses can take to address AI risks, is to integrate risk considerations across ethical, safety, and cultural domains. A multidisciplinary approach can help ensure that AI is deployed responsibly. Establishing comprehensive AI governance frameworks is essential. These frameworks should include perspectives from experts across the organisation to balance security, compliance, and innovation within a single, cohesive risk management strategy. Countering AI-Powered Threats While AI has enormous potential, bad actors are leveraging AI to enhance the speed, scale, and sophistication of attacks. Social engineering schemes, advanced fraud tactics, and AI-generated phishing emails are becoming more difficult to detect, with some leading to significant financial losses. Deepfakes, for instance, are finding their way into targeted scams aimed at compromising organisations. A 2024 ENISA report highlighted that AI-enhanced phishing attacks have surged by 35% in the past year, underscoring the need for stronger cybersecurity measures. To stay ahead organisations must prepare for an era where cyberattacks operate at machines' speed. Transitioning to a defensive approach anchored in automation is key to responding swiftly and effectively, minimizing the impact of advanced attacks. The future of AI agents in the cybersecurity domain may not be far off. This means deploying AI-powered security tools that can detect anomalies in real time...

The government has announced that Te Pūkenga is set to return to ‘regional governance,' re-establishing 10 polytechnics that were merged under the previous Labour-led government. In 2020 under the previous Labour-led government, 16 polytechnics and nine industry training organisations were merged into the mega-institute Te Pūkenga, as a “head office”. Despite this, the polytechnics were allowed to maintain their unique images and continue operating. Vocational Education Minister, Penny Simmonds, announced the move, to establish a vocational education system that is “locally led, regionally responsible, and future-focused”. The move has faced backlash. The Tertiary Education Union's national secretary, Sandra Grey, says the move would be a disaster for regional education and that the sector is being treated as a “political football”. For our weekly catchup with the Labour Party, News and Editorial Director Joel spoke with MP Shanon Halbert, about this move from the government. They also discussed Te Pāti Māori members expressing concerns over Labour's choice of running MP Peeni Henare in the upcoming Tāmaki Makaurau by-election. Te Pāti Māori media liaison, Kiri Tamihere-Waititi, says a vote for Henare would be “wasted,” as Henare already has a seat in Parliament. She has called for people to vote for Te Pāti Māori's candidate, Oriini Kaipara, so that there would be two Tāmaki Makaurau-based Māori MPs in Parliament. But first, they discussed vocational education.

Another audio packed episode at Wild Bird Acoustics! I begin with a magazine entitled 'The Fruits of 2024', a random collection of field recordings, all of which were taken over the course of Spring 2024. I had a wonderful time visiting different locations at that time, simply recording the wonderful soundscapes I came across whilst out in the field. As I often do, I simply wandered around various locations, letting the sounds of singing birds define what I recorded next, at times, simply moving from one songster to the next... Following this rather random sound magazine, a more planned and researched piece which I have put together carefully over the past year. This extensive sound magazine concerns the sound identification of migrating Buntings. Buntings are widespread Autumnal migrants and they remain one of my favourite species groups. As you will know by now, I am extremely drawn to migrating passerines and there is nothing I enjoy more than being out at dawn, monitoring fall migrants as they move southwards. Visible migration can be challenging and there is much to learn. Often, as large numbers of migrants can be high overhead on mornings such as this, an extensive knowledge of vocalizations and calls is the key to unlocking the secrets of migration. This sound guide to Buntings has been formulating in the recesses of my mind for a few years now. It has taken me many years to collect enough audio to finally tackle this project, featuring one of my favourite groups of passerine species. The audio here has been gleaned from many early morning sessions. Establishing two listening stations here in Sweden has proved the key to unlocking this particular box, allowing me to accumulate a large amount of reference material to work with and share. I really hope this can help encourage others to get out into the field and enjoy the incredible spectacle that is bird migration. Buntings are a fascinating group of species and several species are recorded on passage here in Sweden. Here, I take a deep dive into the calls of a number of species that occur here and discuss each in turn....Leave a comment here....Support the showSubscibe to Wild Bird Acoustics here;https://wildbirdacoustics.buzzsprout.comLots more audio related material here at my long running website;https://blogbirder.blogspot.com/

It's always exciting to watch a group of replacement heifers develop and anticipate their performance in the milking string as the top genetics of your herd. There is just about nothing more devastating than freshening them in to find mastitis or even worse, a blind quarter. When a first calf heifer calves in with a high somatic cell count she is more likely to maintain the high count, and more likely to be culled. Heifer mastitis, or intramammary infection (IMI), is a common affliction yet we know very little about what stage of production it occurs and how to best diagnosis the root of the problem. Pamela Adkins, DVM at the University of Missouri worked with a team to capture culture samples from a variety of stages of heifer development to fabricate standard protocols for sample collection and help producers better understand how to circumvent this disease cycle for their herd. Listen in to learn how to improve heifer development and limit the tragedy of damaged replacements.

In this special episode, I had the joy of sitting down with Aiko Okubo and her husband Hiroshi, who joined us as a translator, for a heartfelt conversation about the rise of homeopathy in Japan. Aiko opened up about her early doubts and the powerful moments that shifted her perspective—starting with a friend's healing and later, her mother-in-law's search for alternative care. We explored the current challenges and quiet progress of homeopathy in Japan, from limited public awareness to the growing accessibility of remedies online. Aiko also spoke about blending traditional Japanese medicine with homeopathy and how both systems connect on a deeper, energetic level. Her passion truly shines through as she shares her mission to grow a new generation of Japanese homeopaths, inspired by her work in establishing Homeopathy Academy Japan alongside Dr. Ewald Stoteler. Episode Highlights: 02:51 - How Aiko discovered homeopathy 05:35 - Homeopathy scene in Japan 08:31 - Traditional medicine and homeopathy in Japan 14:08 - Establishing a Homeopathy School in Japan 21:27 - Future hopes for homeopathy in Japan 24:17 - Advice for skeptics to try homeopathy About my Guests: Aiko Okubo is a homeopath and principal of Homeopathy Academy Japan (HAJapan), where she leads with a vision to cultivate skilled and compassionate homeopaths. She emphasizes hands-on learning through small group systems, where students collaborate, review lectures, and practice real-world scenarios. This group-based approach not only builds practical skills but also creates a strong community of future homeopaths who support and learn from each other. Under Aiko's leadership, HAJapan focuses on quality over quantity, selecting a small number of dedicated students each year. The academy integrates advanced training, mentorship, and opportunities for students to eventually become educators themselves. Aiko's goal is to foster a generation of professionals who are both clinically capable and ethically grounded, helping raise the standard of homeopathy in Japan.

10:05 – 10:22 (17mins) Weekly: Karen Kataline - @KarenKataline More info on Karen: www.karenkataline.com 10:41 – 10:56 (15mins) Gold Star Father George Lutz More on George: https://tragedytotribute.orgwww.HonorandRemember.orgNew Book Chronicles a Father's Sacred Journey to Honor America's Fallen HeroesForeword by Dennis MillerGold Star father George A. Lutz has written a book that is a unique tribute to his son, Tragedy to Tribute: One Father's Grief Fuels a Passionate Journey to Change the Mindset of a Nation. It is a deeply personal and powerfully patriotic book that traces his journey from heartbreaking loss to a national mission of remembrance. This release marks the 20th anniversary of the death of his son, Corporal George "Tony" Lutz II, who was killed in Fallujah, Iraq, on December 29, 2005. On that fateful day, Corporal Tony Lutz was killed by a sniper's bullet while on patrol in Fallujah, Iraq. The devastating news shattered his family and friends, plunging them into shock, grief, and an unimaginable loss - a pain familiar to countless other families across the nation. In the months following Tony's funeral, his father George visited other families who had lost loved ones in the war. What he discovered was a powerful, unspoken bond - a fellowship forged by sacrifice and shared sorrow, stretching back generations to the American Revolution, when the first patriots gave their lives for our country's freedom. As the grief of these families turned to acceptance, one question echoed in their minds as it did in Tony's family: Will their loved ones truly be remembered? Determined to find an answer, George set out to discover a specific symbol that America used to honor military fallen in a way that would endure. Thus, the 'Honor and Remember' Flag was born - a definitive beacon of appreciation to forever recognize those who made the ultimate sacrifice for their country. George's mission of unification led him across all fifty states, grieving with thousands of Gold Star families, walking through the halls of Congress and speaking to whomever would listen. His tireless advocacy ignited a movement for national remembrance, fighting for the recognition and respect that every fallen warfighter and their families deserve. What began in the wake of unimaginable devastation has grown into a nationwide movement. In Tragedy to Tribute, Lutz shares how he transformed his grief into purpose, creating the Honor and Remember Flag - a unifying symbol to publicly recognize every U.S. military service member who has died in the line of duty. Establishing the flag as our nation's unified expression of appreciation became a national mission. Through George's tireless efforts, the flag has become a powerful emblem of sacrifice, family, and enduring gratitude. With a moving foreword by cultural commentator and longtime supporter Dennis Miller, the book opens with a heartfelt reflection on Lutz's extraordinary resolve: "As George navigated the depths of despair involved in the five stages of grief, with God's help, he entered a sixth stage: an indefatigability about never letting Tony and his sacred brethren ever be forgotten." In Tragedy to Tribute, Lutz invites readers into the most sacred spaces of loss and healing - from the knock on the door that changed his life forever, to the quiet hours of anguish, and ultimately to the birth of a national movement. It is a story of faith, family, purpose, and the sacred power of remembrance. Today, the Honor and Remember Flag flies proudly across the country: · Legislated as an official state symbol in 28 U.S. states;· Recognized in federal bill H.R.1363;· Seen at NASCAR's Memorial Weekend tribute, NHL Playoffs and Norwegian Cruise Line vessels;· Displayed at corporate offices, state buildings, town squares, schools, churches, and homes; and· Presented in thousands of ceremonies to Gold Star families across the nation. "This book is not just about Tony," says his proud father. "It's about every son and daughter who never came home - and every mother, father, spouse, and sibling who carries that sacrifice in their hearts forever. It's about a promise: We will never forget the sacrifices they made for our freedom." ABOUT THE AUTHOR: George Lutz is the founder of Honor and Remember, Inc., a national nonprofit dedicated to permanent public recognition of every U.S. service member who died in the line of duty. A Gold Star father and passionate advocate, Lutz has traveled to all fifty states, bringing honor, healing, and unity to thousands of military families across generations.

Scott Edwards, a serial entrepreneur who shares his journey from various business ventures to establishing a successful comedy club. The conversation explores the importance of timing, networking, and learning from others in the entrepreneurial landscape. Scott discusses his early experiences in business, the challenges of life insurance sales, and how he transitioned into the comedy scene, ultimately opening one of the first full-time comedy clubs in the U.S. In this conversation, R. Scott Edwards shares his journey as a comedy club owner and entrepreneur, discussing the challenges and successes he faced along the way. He emphasizes the importance of preparation, research, and learning from failures in business. Scott recounts various ventures, including owning a submarine and restaurants, highlighting the lessons learned from each experience. The discussion also touches on marketing strategies and the evolution of business practices over the years, culminating in Scott's reflections on his entrepreneurial journey and future endeavors. Takeaways Scott Edwards identifies as a serial entrepreneur, exploring various industries. Success often involves a mix of luck and strategic planning. Networking and learning from others is crucial for success. Many entrepreneurs start by borrowing ideas rather than creating new ones. Scott's first business was a parking lot striping company he started at 17. Having an exit strategy is essential for any business. Timing plays a significant role in business success. Scott transitioned from life insurance sales to comedy after a pivotal experience. He opened a comedy club in 1980, one of the first in the U.S. The comedy scene has evolved significantly since the 1980s. Much like all my companies, did it the seat of my pants. I kept a club there for five years, but it never really was a success. It's so important to do your research. Failures are the stepping stones to success. I owned and operated a submarine. You have to research and learn. It's location, location, location. I started a new company every year. You have to think outside the box. It's the accidental entrepreneur, that's the way to succeed.

Tracy remains the CEO of the company, which operates independently in the Valsoft holding company. Quote from Tracy Larson, CEO and president of WeSuite “For founders in SaaS, especially women founders, you need to find the right people to become your personal board of advisors. You don't need money to pay them. Just pick five people who you've known over the years to help you. Ask them, Would you do this for me and be a sounding board once a month? I'd like to get your perspective on topics like these for 30 minutes. It's not a formal board, it's just advice and perspective. “Establishing a personal board of advisors is a great idea. They can be women or men. And you can switch it up every year or so. Don't worry about what you don't know. We all have things we don't know.” Links Tracy Larson on LinkedIn WeSuite on LinkedIn WeSuite website Valsoft website The Practical Founders Podcast Tune into the Practical Founders Podcast for weekly in-depth interviews with founders who have built valuable software companies without big funding.

Nick examines the technical yet crucial topic of how elite Private Equity firms effectively scale business operations. Drawing from his extensive experience in Private Equity and entrepreneurship, Nick highlights the significant differences between traditional business growth strategies and those employed by top firms like KKR and Blackstone KEY TAKEAWAYS Private Equity firms succeed not just by acquiring businesses at low prices but by executing operational improvements effectively. Founders can adopt similar strategies to enhance their business operations and drive growth. Establishing a structured 100-day plan can help business owners identify hidden value, design efficient organisational structures Successful Private Equity firms emphasise systemisation at scale, creating streamlined processes and centralised tech stacks. Effective leadership is crucial for driving value. Business owners should assess their teams regularly and be willing to replace underperforming leaders to ensure the execution of their growth strategies. BEST MOMENTS "The real pros, they obsess over how to run them once they own them." "You do not need to sell to Private Equity to scale like Private Equity." "If the team that's inherently brought in can't deliver the value creation plan, then they're replaced." "In Private Equity, growth isn't left to hope, it's precisely engineered, it's methodical."

In 743 BCE, Tiglath-Pileser III—known in the Bible as Pul—led the Assyrian Empire into its most powerful and centralized form. This episode of Oldest Stories chronicles the dramatic military and political resurgence of Neo-Assyria as it faced two major threats: the rising Urartian kingdom of Biainilli to the north and the rebellious patchwork of Neo-Hittite and Aramean states in Syria. With detailed narrative drawn from Assyrian royal inscriptions and biblical texts, we explore Tiglath-Pileser's sweeping campaigns across Kummuhu, Arpad, Ulluba, and the Levant, showcasing how the king combined strategic force marches, sophisticated provincial integration, and unprecedented use of eunuch governors to stabilize and expand imperial rule. From the siege of Arpad to the subjugation of Tyre, Israel, and Simirra, the episode reveals how Assyria subdued the ancient Near East through a fusion of administrative innovation and battlefield supremacy. This pivotal moment in Iron Age history marks the beginning of Assyria's true imperial age—one defined by aggressive diplomacy, relentless warfare, and the creation of a durable bureaucratic state. For listeners seeking historical insight into ancient warfare, Assyrian governance, biblical archaeology, and the real-world geopolitics behind Old Testament narratives, this is an essential deep dive into one of the greatest military campaigns of the 8th century BCE.I am also doing daily history facts again, at least until I run out of time again.

In this episode, Erica talks about how to approach care when a patient has a long history of injuries and a body chart that seems to be "lit up" everywhere. It can feel overwhelming—for both the patient and the clinician. She focuses on the importance of prioritization: identifying what's most clinically relevant right now. This involves connecting the dots to perhaps an old injury to what the current problem is. In this particular case, frequent bilateral ankle sprains, an ACL reconstruction plus a continued pattern of bilateral issues help you nail down your focus to what is important for you to assess and what is important for the patient to feel. These patterns not only shape your clinical focus—helping you decide what truly needs assessment—but also give the patient a clearer sense of what their body is trying to communicate. What is relevant to you may not be important to them. It's up to you to explain to them why. Key takeaways include: · Avoiding the trap of chasing every symptom. · Establishing a hierarchy of concerns using patient input and objective findings. · Acknowledging the complexity of the history without letting it dictate the entire plan.
