Indicted SPLC leader faces House investigation
The Department of Justice has expanded its indictment against the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), accusing it of funneling over $4 million in donor funds to extremist groups, including KKK and neo-Nazi organizations, through covert payments between 2010 and 2023. The indictment alleges the SPLC used fictitious bank accounts and concealed payments to fund recruitment and activities of hate groups, with some payments allegedly aiding the 2017 "Unite the Right" rally. SPLC denies wrongdoing, claiming its informant program fought extremism, while congressional investigations scrutinize the group's ties to the Biden administration and its increased revenue during this period.
