The David Horowitz Freedom Center has had their donation processing system blocked by Visa and Mastercard allegedly following a campaign by the Southern Poverty Law Center. The David Horowitz Freedom Center stated in a recent email that its ability to accept donations by credit card has been disabled by both Visa and Mastercard following a campaign by the SPLC to label the Freedom Center as a hate group. This situation comes shortly after Robert Spencer of Jihad Watch was forced off the funding platform Patreon following pressure from Mastercard.
The Freedom Center is the next target of the SPLC, and they are using Mastercard and Visa again in their attempt to shut down conservative voices. In an email sent to supporters, Horowitz outlined how the SPLC had convinced Mastercard and Visa to block the Freedom Center from receiving payments and donations via credit card. In the email, Horowitz requested that supporters send donations via check to a P.O. Box.

No, they don’t have to bake the cake...
Revelation 13:17 New International Version (NIV)
17 so that they could not buy or sell unless they had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of its name.
I hate the left.
The SPLC has long been identified as a hate group.
"Conservatives" would wield more economic power if they weren't split into several factions that hate and counter-signal one another.
I’m sure I saw it in the penumbra there somewhere.
I read yesterday that SPLC has deep pockets.
Trump should declare the SPLC a terrorist supporting institution and see how they like having every single financial institution in the world cut them off!
Absolute outrage.
bttt
They will pressure banks, just like Obama did with the gun industry.
They have been subjected to propaganda and disinformation. They are in serious need of education. It’s difficult to penetrate the barriers set up by a century of indoctrination. Some alert people are finally catching on. Some of them seemingly can’t be reclaimed.
The SPLC is a racist organization. I hope after card andthe visa are doing the same to them.
You are guilty of hate speech says the left.
JMHo
I presume SPLC is a charity, and untaxed Is this appropriate behavior for a group with that status? I think Trump finally got his own IRS head, at least got rid of obama’s. This would be an appropriate question to direct there. And certainly, sue them down to one retasked letter, ‘L’. Unless age has weakened him Horowitz was a dumb target for the left; he knows all t6eir dirty tricks and fights hard.
Where the hell are the chairmen of the House and Senate Banking committees? One phone call from them to Visa and M/C threatening subpoenas and hearings along with demands for reams of documents might get these financial giants thinking about who they would rather piss off...
Time for a 4:00am raid on the Poverty Palace in Montgomery, Alabama.
The Southern Poverty Law Corruption is an anti Christian, bigoted hate group that has inspired terrorism, and as yet not ceased doing so. They are certainly not the arbiter of which groups produce hate speech or promote extremism. Theirs is a particular brand of anti-American, anti-democratic authoritarianism, and the truth about them needs to be widely disseminated. They would rather the truth not come out, as it would undermine their narrative.
