Nonprofits Dread Attempts to Scrutinize Diversity Initiatives Multiple groups said that a government email address created for reports of attempts to thwart the Trump administration’s crackdown was used to sign up for their newsletters.

"Vince Warren, executive director of @theccr.bsky.social, said his group had noticed the sign-up just days after Mr. Trump took office. 'We deleted it,' he said. 'The Trump administration should not be mining our communications to use that information against us.'"
