George Clooney Donates $1M to Southern Poverty Law Center to Fight ‘Bigotry and Hate’
Breitbart ^ | 22 Aug 2017 | JEROME HUDSON

Posted on 08/27/2017 10:29:25 AM PDT by E. Pluribus Unum

Actor and activist George Clooney and his wife Amal, have become the latest high-profile public figures to donate $1 million to the far-left Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC). The Money Monster star’s Clooney Foundation for Justice partnered with the Alabama-based organization for the seven-figure grant, Deadline reports.

“Amal and I wanted to add our voice (and financial assistance) to the ongoing fight for equality,” George Clooney said in a statement. “There are no two sides to bigotry and hate.”

“We are proud to support the Southern Poverty Law Center in its efforts to prevent violent extremism in the United States,” the actor and his wife said. “What happened in Charlottesville, and what is happening in communities across our country, demands our collective engagement to stand up to hate.”

I thought that the commie fellow traveler SPLC was already over funded?

Yayayayaya blablabla.... For all his protestations about tolerance etc, why doesn’t he move back to England and stay more @ his home on Lake Garda ( if it isn’t sold ). For those that know why he left, and opined about it, you know of what I speak. This man has no epistemological center, and that is not any new news to us....

He might at least beat Hillary and Mad Maxine though, in the primaries.

Interesting, Dees’ wikipedia page makes no mention of it, not unusual for the left-leaning wikipedia.

The idiot just spent a million dollars to promote bigotry and hate. SPLC is nothing more than a left wing hate group that smears everyone on the right.

That doesn't make him an idiot, it just makes him one of them. Clooney is a radical leftist and always has been. No surprise.

I guess No-Clue Knee missed the news on the FIVE murdered Dallas cops by BLM BLACK Nationalist

And the TWO cops killed in Florida this month

But he buys into the only one side narrative

Maybe this is hush money for he and Amal and Morris Dees “ friendship”

Every movie ticket purchased is a donation to the Democrat Party and the people and groups who hate traditional Americans. Think about it. Is it really worth it for cheap propaganda?

I would l would LOVE for George Clooney to run for POTUS, he’s a greatly despised sanctimonious hypocrite and proven dim bulb dumb@ass.

But before he can run against DJT, he will have to take out Cory Booker, Keith X Ellion, and Shaquita Almighty herself, Kamala Harris. Racist.

The Rat primaries will be very entertaining, I’m looking forward to the freaktard show.

Who is more bigoted against and hateful of conservative viewpoints than the SPLC?

He is the epitome of the elite political class’ soft bigotry & racism towards the majority of Americans! And he moved back to US as England was not safe! Yet he wants to infect America with his global communist ideology!

Some of the pictures refuse to load. Dees is a shyster doing what he does best, bilking money out of useful idiots.
