Betsy Gleick @betsygleick.bsky.social · 02/05/2026There’s so much awful stuff happening and I get that this isn’t the worst but kudos to @ronlieber.bsky.social for staying on this story about the latest institutions (Fidelity, Vanguard, Schwab) caving to the corrupt regime. 010
Betsy Gleick @betsygleick.bsky.social · 29/04/2026Going to keep beating this drum—Fidelity, what about Turning Point, speaking of orgs that advocate hate and racism? 111
Reposted by Betsy GleickRon Lieber @ronlieber.bsky.social · 29/04/2026UPDATE: Vanguard has also stopped allowing its donor advised fund customers to give to the Southern Poverty Law Center.

Betsy Gleick @betsygleick.bsky.social · 29/04/2026This is an egregious example of obeying in advance and I’m glad @ronlieber.bsky.social wrote this piece. Fidelity: for shame. Tip of the iceberg.

Betsy Gleick @betsygleick.bsky.social · 26/04/2026Why was up there and who was the guy shooting at? 011
Betsy Gleick @betsygleick.bsky.social · 25/04/2026To explain: Fidelity (and others but I use Fidelity) offers “donor-advised funds,” where one can puts $ in a fund, get the tax deduction, then one makes any 501c3 donations via that fund. It’s handy! But Fidelity is refusing to send my donation from last week—**my money**—to @splcenter.org 021
Betsy Gleick @betsygleick.bsky.social · 25/04/2026Boosting this, and paging all reporters: same. @splcenter.org is still a 501c3. Fidelity, I’ve read your fine print but am still absolutely outraged, and you should be ashamed. 14022
