Despite listing the charges in the indictment of the Southern Poverty Law Center and without even questioning their validity, the Associated Press writes it off as a 'political weapon' on the part of the Trump administration.

The AP's Collin Binkley, Alanna Durkin Richer, and Rebecca Boone came up with this remarkable summary of the indictment on Tuesday in "Southern Poverty Law Center charged with defrauding donors with payments to extremist informants."

They gave an inclusive summary of the serious charges against the SPLC ...before essentially writing them off as politically motivated.

Funny, because the SPLC itself IS “a political weapon.”
