Amid a departure of top executives at the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), a new report details allegations of sexual misconduct and racial discrimination against those very individuals at the progressive nonprofit which frequently has targeted conservative groups.

A report from the New York Times on Monday detailed several complaints by both current and former employees that indicated a “climate of intolerance” in the workplace -- complaints including sexual harassment and a lack of diversity based on race and gender.

On Friday, SPLC President Richard Cohen announced he would be stepping down from the civil rights organization amid the harassment and diversity allegations.

“We’re going through a difficult period right now, and I know that we’ll emerge stronger at the end of the process that we’ve launched with Tina Tchen,” he said speaking of the Chicago-based attorney and onetime chief of staff for former first lady Michelle Obama who is conducting a review of the nonprofit.

It was a good racket (as in racketeering racket) while it lasted.

Maybe he’ll meet a similar foul-play double cross end as financial embezzler atheist-supremacist Maddy Murray O’Hair.

It’s amazingballs how “Rev.” Al “Jew them down” Sharpton’s well-known corporate shakedown racket has become the business model for so many organizations these days.

In the 80s, it was common knowledge (and discussed in “Stiffed: A True Story of MCA, the Music Business, and the Mafia”) that if you gave Al a check, he’d drop his threat of protesting your corporate offices. An example cited was threatening public taunts and protest because of too few black people working on some Michael Jackson album. No staff changes were made, just financial payoff.
