Full title: Famed civil rights group Southern Poverty Law Center faces allegations of 'systemic racism and sexism' including claims qualified African-American employees were 'passed over for promotions'

The civil rights group, based in Alabama, monitors the activities of domestic hate groups and other extremists

The SPLC has launched a wide-ranging external review following the firing of co-founder, five times married, Morris Dees earlier this month

"...Former Michelle Obama's Chief-of-Staff Tina Tchen has been appointed to lead a company-wide review."

Well, she certainly get around, doesn't she? Freeing-up Jussie a week or two ago and now playing yellow knight down in Alabama?

Hopefully there are good connecting flights so she won't miss her future appearance before a Federal grand jury in Chicago?

That the SPLC is crashing and burning before our eyes might be my favorite peripheral consequence of Trump’s presidency.

God's wrath via President Trump raining down on the left is so awesome to behold. Let me know when to turn and look away from them.

The SPLC has been a front for subversive anti American and anti Christian A-Hole commies for years. Death to them.

So the SPLC should designate themselves as a hate group.

I’ve known several people in Information Technology who have worked at the SPLC (Montgomery, Ala) over the years. They’re not Leftists but good at what they do and are paid well—that’s why they’ve worked there.

HOWEVER—they were all male and white.

OOPS!

Can’t have that!

The fact they were highly qualified, worked hard and were smart isn’t the issue. They were WHITE MALES.

One of the foulest, most detestable rackets this country has ever seen. And they were given so much power.
