For Years, the Left Used the 'Unite the Right' Charlottesville Rally to Smear the Right as Antisemitic and Racist. Turns Out, It was Underwritten by the Left.

The Southern Poverty Law Center has been indicted for fraud and is accused of having funded organizers, supervised racist posts, and coordinated transportation to the Unite the Right rally in 2017.

An explosive new indictment was handed down against the Southern Poverty Law Center this week, accusing the storied civil rights organization of 11 counts of wire fraud, false statements to a federally insured bank, and money laundering.

The Department of Justice is alleging that between 2014 and 2023, the SPLC secretly funneled over $3 million from donors to leaders of the Ku Klux Klan, Unite the Right, and the Nazi Party, among other extremist organizations.

While telling donors that the money was being used to “dismantle” the violent extremist groups, “that money was then used for the benefit of the individuals as well as the violent extremist groups,” the indictment alleges.

Paying millions of dollars to Nazis and Klansmen would be bad enough. But the indictment alleges that the SPLC went beyond that, actually underwriting the Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville in 2017, providing material support and supervision to what the Left turned into the symbol of Right-wing hate.

One of the people the SPLC was working with was a leading planner of the rally and attended the event “at the direction of the SPLC.” He also “made racist postings under the supervision of the SPLC and helped coordinate transportation to the event for several attendees.”

For his pains, he was paid $270,000.

This is absolutely wild stuff.

The Southern Poverty Law Center allegedly supervised the writing of racist posts and coordinated transportation to a White Supremacist rally, literally paying one of the organizers hundreds of thousands of dollars to ensure turnout was good.

So the left is utterly incompetent at solving problems, even one’s they gaslighted into imagined existence in the first place so they could be paid to solve them,

This is how the left works all over the world. Learn to recognize it or you will be manipulated by them.

Does the indictment include leadership and members of the board individually or just the organization itself?

This whole, vile, sordid mess is proof that the DEMON-crats and the GOPeahens that enable and support them are all lies. Their entire existence is a colossal prevarication, mirage, ruse, and tool for fascism. Every darn one of them needs to be purged from all contact with DC, taxpayer cash and be incarcerated to protect US! (But they won’t be…They will, ultimately, get away with it.)

CIA 'INFLUENCE OPERATION' aimed at DEMONIZING Republicans for the purpose of DEMONRATS HOLDING ONTO POWER, 100%

Could even be possible the SPLC is a direct operative of the deep state wing of the CIA. MEDIA WAS INVOLVED TOO.

USAID, OBAMA/BRENNAN/COMEY ("8647")/CLAPPER/ RICE's TRUMP-RUSSIA COLLUSION, AUTOPEN COUP, GEORGIA FULTON COUNTY EGREGIOUS ELECTION FRAUD among others, Leticia James, Fani Willis & boytoy Wade colluding with Biden WH, SOMALI PIRATE CONGRESSWOMAN ILHAN OMAR'S IMMIGRATION FRAUD & MONEY-LAUNDERING/TAX FRAUD, MINNESOTA'S TAMPON TIMMY AND HIS FAUX CHILD CARE & HOME HEALTH CARE MEGA-FRAUD.. CCP OPERATIVE GAVIN NEWSCUM'S ILLEGAL FUNDING OF ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION and TRAINS TO NOWHERE PROJECTS USED TO LAUNDER MONEY TO DEMONRATS, ANOTHER CCP PUPPET AND RAPIST SWALWELL ETC, ETC, ETC, ETC..

HOW MUCH DEMONRAT TREASON BEFORE PEOPLE START GOING TO PRISON?

PEOPLE START GOING TO PRISON?

You watch, Zero Deep Staters will see the inside of a cell.

However, once Dems regain power, it’s back to the gulags for MAGA . Bet on it.

Trump’s DOJ is MIA on the Deep State .

Fitting that Biden based his campaign on a lie.

I don’t understand why a Nazi would need SPLC money. Was there a tattoo crisis among the 6 members of the American Nazi party and SPLC was helping them through a rough patch paying for the tattoo billboards on their foreheads to keep them visible?

FR will probably be banned in 3 years. Elon Musk will retire from politics and sell X so he can keep SpaceX.

The Democrats (Marxists) are motivated and really that is all what they need.

The good news is that racism is so scarce that it has to be nurtured by scumbags like SPLC and their contemporaries.
The bad news is that organizations like SPLC and their contemporaries can make a ton of money, so society will never be rid of this cancer.
