The DOJ Just Indicted the SPLC. Here’s What the Indictment Actually Says.
Yesterday the Department of Justice indicted the Southern Poverty Law Center on eleven counts of wire fraud, false statements to a bank, and money laundering. The core allegation: between 2014 and 2023, the SPLC secretly paid more than three million dollars to individuals inside violent extremist groups while soliciting donations to fight those same groups. The indictment is a public document. The question it raises deserves serious analytical attention regardless of how the case resolves.
