The Trump Regime Has Stolen $25 million in NEA grant money since January

Here’s an alphabetized list of organizations whose grants were withdrawn, terminated, or canceled.

May 13, 2025

Note: This is a VERY long post; too long for many email systems, and possibly even your phone. Please click the title to view in the app or on the web (web is best for viewing this long list of organizations that have been devastated by the latest attack against the American way of life).

The Trump regime has withdrawn nearly $25 million in grant money by gutting the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA). The NEA has long been a lighthouse of culture in the United States. This money was already appropriated by Congress. In many cases, if not most, organizations were notified of their award before their funds were withdrawn or terminated.

On May 2, they were snatched away by tech bros with an algorithm and an axe to grind against American culture.

These are not DEI or “woke” organizations, although that was the mad king’s original intent. Everybody was affected.

I have reformatted a previously compiled list of organizations1 which have lost funding due to the Trump regime’s heist. These organizations consist of dance troupes, local theaters, literary publications, and more.

If you have a favorite local theater company, dance troupe, lit mag, go through this alphabetized list. You’ll find how badly they were hammered, which congressional district they are in (so you can alert their congress critter), and other info.

Chances are, if you’re into culture, you’ll find one of your favorite small organizations on this list.

It’s important to understand that the $25 million stripped away from these organizations is not a significant number within the scope of the massive $7 trillion U.S. federal budget. However, losing $25,000 can shut down any of these small cultural gems at any time.

The numbers speak for themselves. It’s a long list. Look it over and let your congress critter know what you think about your favorite cultural organization having its money stolen.

I did some programming magic to convert the original spreadsheet to a format Substack can work with because Substack doesn’t support the use of tables. See the Notes at the end of this document for more details.

Please restack this if you want to help these organizations recover.

Here are the numbers:

Note: If you don’t see yours or your favorite, look at the bottom of the list or add it here if you are a stakeholder in the organization that has lost money.

My efforts would have been impossible without the incredible work by Annie Dorsen, director of the Broadway musical Passing Strange, to collect this data.

A favorite Substack writer among many of my readers,

Jay Kuo

, also saw a theater company dear to his heart, East West Players, hit. He is asking for a donation to help make up for the sudden, unexpected loss:

The Status Kuo

We Just Got Gutted

You’ve probably heard stories like this, but I want to bring it home with a real life example…

If one of your favorites lost money, add a comment, and restack this important information so we can recover funding until we fix Congress during the midterm elections.

The list is not complete. There may be some data issues. These stem from incorrect data entries by the folks who filled out the original form for reporting the heist. It’s not their fault. They shouldn’t have to be reporting this cultural sacrilege.

Based on the huge number of organizations that lost funding on May 2, it’s reasonable to assume that Elon Musk’s TraitorBots developed a search and replace routine on a database that went something like this:

Find all organizations receiving grant money from the federal government: Delete funds; send notifications.

I may not have the latest data. You can view the most current full spreadsheet of grant terminations here. Note that the original spreadsheet is not alphabetized.

If your organization is listed but you see an inaccuracy, check the data at the source. I did not fudge with the data except for a couple of misspellings. All I did was alphabetize and reformat.

Methodology: I downloaded the original spreadsheet and created a new set of data using XSLT, a document processing language,2 to sort it in alphabetical order and render the data in a way Substack can work with, since Substack doesn’t render tables.

There was a lot of data, so I didn’t want to embed the original spreadsheet,3 either, as it would freeze up most phones. It still might, but if you have reached this far down into the document on your phone without it freezing, it worked for you!

Shout out to D. Denise Dianaty, who published this to her This America4 pub on Medium and corrected a few misspellings in the original data.

Thanks for reading!

Honestly, I don’t know if Substack supports spreadsheet embeds. It wasn’t a consideration here.

I hope more patrons and public support will step up and replace the funds unpromised, denied or stolen. Clearly, voices should rise from everywhere to defend the arts regardless of partisanship! The arts help keep civilization from declining back into the "dark ages".

I hope this encourages some! I asked the question: "Did Shakespeare ever receive money from the federal government to write or perform his plays?

*No, William Shakespeare did not receive money from the federal government in his lifetime to write or perform plays. He earned a living primarily as an actor, playwright, and part owner of a theatrical company in the Elizabethan era.

No federal funding:

In Shakespeare's time, there was no federal government in the modern sense. He relied on individual patronage, audience ticket sales, and his share of the theatrical company's profits.

Patronage and public support:

He was also supported by patrons, like Lord Strange, the Earl of Southampton, and eventually King James, who were interested in his work and provided funding.
