... democrats must resort to paying groups like the Ku Klux Klan to stoke racial hatred. Clearly democrats have no moral issue with stoking racial hatred if it helps them win an election. Is there any immoral act that Democrats would not be comfortable doing so long as it helps them retake political power? I think not.


Trump: 2020 Election Should Be ‘Wiped From the Books’ if SPLC Is Convicted of Fraud

Calling the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) “one of the greatest political scams in American history,” President Donald Trump on Friday called for the 2020 election to be “permanently wiped from the books” if the purported anti-hate organization is convicted of fraud.


This week the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) charged the SPLC with making some $3 million in payments to white supremacist groups to gin up hate speech it could then claim to be fighting in order to raise money from donors.


The indictment alleges that one of the informants paid by the SPLC helped organize a highly-publicized white extremist rally in Charlottesville, Virginia in 2017 that candidate Joe Biden exploited as political ammunition to defeat of Trump in the 2020 election.

“The Southern Poverty Law Center, one of the greatest political scams in American History, has been charged with FRAUD,” Trump wrote in a Truth Social post.

He continued, “This is another Democrat Hoax, along with ActBlue, and many others. If it is true, the 2020 Presidential Election should be permanently wiped from the books and be of no further force or effect!”


ActBlue is a Democratic fundraising platform. Chief Executive Officer Regina Wallace-Jones is being scheduled for questioning by a House committee on allegations it may have allowed illegal foreign donations to flow to candidates.

On Tuesday, the SPLC was indicted as prosecutors claimed $3 million in donated funds were secretly paid between 2014 and 2023 to extremist groups that included the Ku Klux Klan, the American Nazi Party, the National Socialist Movement, United Klans of America, and Unite the Right.

SPLC chief officer Bryan Fair claimed the organization was being politically targeted for “prior use of paid confidential informants to gather credible intelligence on extremely violent groups.”

However, acting Attorney General Todd Blanche told reporters a different agenda was in play.

“The SPLC is a nonprofit entity that purports to fight white supremacy and racial hatred by reporting on extremist groups and conducting research to inform law enforcement groups, with the goal of dismantling these groups,” Blanche said when announcing the charges.

He continued, “As the indictment describes, the SPLC was not dismantling these groups. It was instead manufacturing the extremism it purports to oppose by paying sources to stoke racial hatred. There is nothing political about this indictment or this investigation.”


Blanch also pointed out that the investigation into the SPLC’s alleged fraudulent payments started in the Biden administration, but Biden’s DOJ opted not to pursue it.

A sampling of the payments reported by the New York Post from the indictment showed that plenty of funds were available to individuals in these groups to generate extremist activity.

They included payment totals ranging from $70,000 to a Klan member it featured in SPLC’s “extremist files” to $1 million to an informant to steal 25 boxes of documents from the neo-Nazi group called the National Alliance.

In the example relevant to the 2020 election, a leader of the 2017 Unite the Right protest in Charlottesville had received more than $270,000 over eight years, the money allegedly funneled through shell organizations by the SPLC.

That highly publicized protest, sparked by the removal of Civil War monuments, resulted in violent clashes between extremist groups and a night march of white supremacists carrying torches in a scene reminiscent of Nazi Germany.

That image became the political calling card of presidential candidate Joe Biden in the 2020 election, saying the torch bearers prompted him to run for the presidency.

He frequently described the Charlottesville neo-Nazis “emerging from the woods” with “their veins bulging from their necks” and then inaccurately accused then President Trump of saying they were “fine people.”

The SPLC’s paid informant for the rally, who was not identified in the indictment, allegedly “helped coordinate transportation to the event for several attendees.”

Last October, FBI Director Kash Patel ended the bureau’s relationship with the SPLC, calling assistance it provided in the past “agenda driven intelligence” from an “outside group.”

“The Southern Poverty Law Center long ago abandoned civil rights work and turned into a partisan smear machine,” he wrote on X at the time.

I thought the people at the Unite the Right rally were "very fine people." Why are you mad that the SPLC gave people that Trump praises money? Seems that would be a reason for MAGA to celebrate.

This is just one of many examples of that gives the lie to the claims of folks on the right that we are in a post-racial soclety. As he slips further and further into dementia, Trump cannot conceal his ugly racism. The racism in his recent diatribe after the hearing in the birthright citizenship case is explicit and ugly. Every day that passes shows us that the foundation of the MAGA movement is not some kind of economic discontent, but explicit racism.

MAGA hates the SPLC because of its success in fighting both racism and its role in bringing down the Klan and other extremist right-wing groups. To do this, it has recruited paid informants inside of extremist movements. It shared the information it received through this activity with the FBI until Kash stopped cooperation. The cost of this program represented about .3% of donations to the SPLC. But, of course, according to MAGA, the only racism is fighting to stamp out racism.

Your tax dollars being spent to protect racists and Neo-Nazis. Are we winning yet?

Given how many Trump Administration indictments against their perceived political enemies end up being quietly walked back, dropped or dismissed (Brennan and Powell this week alone) due to being little more than meritless revenge BS, it’ll be interesting to see how far the breathless claims in this new indictment get before it suddenly runs into ‘issues’.

Not even ajax believes the claims in this indictment.

To do so, he would have to state that he believes that (a) the SPLC uses mind-control to force white supremacists to do stupid racist things, which would then require that he (b) admits that white supremacists do stupid racist things.

Another day, another pile of MAGA bullshyte.

Ajax,

Care to place a wager on how long these charges actually last before they collapse and are dismissed, just like all the other Trump DOJ politically motivated charges?

So far, the SPLC’s "criminal" activity seems to consist entirely of paying 2 informants for intel on hate group recruitment, you know, basic research. But hey, I’m sure it’s just a coincidence that the Trump DOJ is currently batting a clean .000 on these types of cases. And of course, we all know that the Trump DOJ would never dream of targeting private organizations or individuals just because they don't support MAGA/Trump.

I suppose there’s still hope for a MAGA miracle, but I’m not holding my breath. This case is destined for the ever growing scrapheap of "totally-not-politically motivated" legal failures being churned out by the Trump DOJ.

I think right now we're seeing which voters were duped into Trump for what they thought were economic and no foreign entanglements reasons from those who voted for racist reasons. The racists are still loyal. The rest are leaving in droves.
