‘Red Flag’ Report: Media’s Favorite ‘Hate Group’ Watchdog SPLC Transfers MILLIONS To Offshore Investments

John Bickley

The Southern Poverty Law Center has come under increased scrutiny in recent years for the overtly partisan nature of its “hate” and “extremist” listings as well as its sketchy financial dealings. The Washington Free Beacon‘s Joe Schoffstall has dug deeper into the latter and, according to a new report, discovered what tax experts and non-profit consultants are describing as a “huge red flag”: the 501(c)(3) tax-exempt charitable organization “pushes millions of dollars to offshore entities as part of its business dealings.”

SPLC has been in the news a lot lately, not only because it has been cited repeatedly by mainstream media outlets for its supposedly nonpartisan “hate group” and “extremist” lists (which once included Ben Carson), but also because it has been sued by some of those “hate groups” for defamation, recently dropped a town unfairly listed from its reckless “hate map,” and created a brand new Confederate map that includes names of elementary and middle schools and entire counties as supposedly promoting “turmoil and bloodshed.”
