Sounds like the opposite end of the spectrum from Alex Jones, but one common denominator - made a lot of money off of ignorance.
More like a lotta money can be made off of white guilt. SPLC was/is/will continue to be a grift.
Alex Jones was right about everything. Including the Sandy Hook charade. He had mountains of evidence exposing the government funding crisis actors, but the judge wouldn’t allow that to be admitted, in the name of “preventing more harm” (actually just protecting the Obama DoJ crisis actors)
But if you mean he got rich off of selling supplements then how is he any different than GNC?
back in the 1960s charles evers said ''you will never get rid of racism cause there are too many people making money at it''.
not much poverty in those salaries.
That organization never passed the smell test. They gambled that no one would scrutinize them given their “front” but thankfully someone did.
Before Jody Owens ran for DA, he was working for Southern Poverty but resigned amid a flurry of sexual harassment complaints. This information was available to the voters before his first election. They chose to ignore it.
On the first day of the session this year, the lobbyist for SPLC was carrying a Louboutin purse and of course the heels. But what really got my attention was that the heels had a strange vamp decoration that had the Louboutin "L" logo. It caught my eye because Louboutin's don't usually have a visible logo, the red bottom is how you know. Never seen that before so later I looked it up. Apparently SPLC needed $800 accessories for their $1100 heels to match the $1800 Cabata tote. What else does one wear to march on the Capitol to fight against the rights of impoverished black parents to choose their kid's school?
$822M will solve a lot of poverty issues......
Aren't they the ones representing the
people who are suing the state over the
arpa funds?
“The Height of The Ridiculous”
Let me get this straight - yall people who want a billion dollar ballroom and are enduring $5.00 a gallon gas and are watching the first family literally make billions off of the USA - are all bent out of shape that a group dedicated to erasing the KKK has investments over 50 years which have increased in value?
That’s rich
Que up Hillary Clinton reciting the “ I don’t feel noways tired” speech
A terrorist organization that funds other terrorist organizations.
Didn't see Board Members (Big Mike and Hussein).
There is mucho moolah to be grifted-up in racism. You don't need a list - You know who they are.
The DEM put a pretty face on modern slavery called handouts (LBJ) and entitlements, with no regard to a "hand up". The same party behind the KKK, never changed, they pivoted and many of our brown brothers and sisters can't see it or refuse to as they're too complacent with the freebies to join the rest of us contributing and thriving which with the same amount of contribution, they're entitled to and capable of as human beings.
There is a cure for TDS.
No wonder why they were paying the KKK so much. They had to keep the enemy in good shape so they would have someone to blame everything on and to scare people into donating.
1:02 PM, thanks for sharing that in the 1960’s Charles Evers said ''you will never get rid of racism cause there are too many people making money at it.”
Also in the 1960’s Malcom X said “that white person that you see calling himself a liberal is the most dangerous thing in the entire Western Hemisphere.”
In June of 2020 Civil Rights legend Bob Woodson said: In the civil rights movement we promised blacks if you were to elect blacks to public office through the voting rights act, and we (blacks) were running those institutions, that all of black America would be better off. Now after 50 years of liberal Democrats running the inner cities, we have all of these inequities.
And in 2010 Alan Lange & Tom Dawson via Kings of Tort and Curtis Wilkie via The Fall of the House of Zeus educated us on just how narcissistic and criminal scumbag Democrat supporting trial lawyers can be.
Looks like SPLC proves all of the above, correct yet again.
Ignored it because he was culturally correct.
Lock Her Up
Someone is angry that the racism grift is coming to an end. Lol
Trillions of dollars are made off of emotional weakness. If I didn’t have a conscience, I’d be noways poor.
The conversation is about the SPLC funding groups that they are supposedly against. Keep up knuckle head.
1:51, you libtards need to learn to ethically argue. Your statements completely lack context. The “billion dollar ballroom” will cost taxpayers virtually nothing while providing all future presidents, republican and democrat, a venue to safely host large events without using portapotties and tents. It will also provide a state of the art emergency operations center and better administrative space. As for the gas, hell yes I’ll temporarily pay extra if it means neutralizing a rogue terrorist state with nuclear ambitions. Please seek treatment - TDS is curable if diagnosed early.
Any white folk making the big bucks there? I didn't think so.
Is it common for non-profit organizations to park money offshore?
ONCE UPON A TIME it was a sacrifice and maybe even dangerous to represent the interest of the "poor" and "downtrodden". No more. It can now be quite lucrative. That is why you will not be rid of the "poor" and "downtrodden".
@1:51 Correction The SPLC is not committed to erasing the KKK. They are committed to fighting the KKK. Big difference. If the KKK is erased what is their purpose? Where does all that money go then?
Actually 1:51 - you are wrong in your accusations. Some of us reasonable conservatives do not support the billon dollar ballroom, despite the fool at 3:06 that is one of those that actually believes everything that comes out of TheDon's mouth. We don't support wasting a billion on a gold-encrusted ediface, while we also don't support the concept of hundreds of millions drawing interest while collecting tens of millions more a year in 'donations' for an entity that claims to 'fight poverty', while actually supporting the continuation of poverty to assist them in, of all things, more fundraising.
And 3:06, the 'virtually nothing' crap you are spreading evidently ignores the lies about the ballroom, just check out TheDon's latest lackey, Senator Graham, as he is pushing for the finacially broke federal government to pay for this just as always has been planned.
What is left out of this reporting on the SPLC scam is the millions they have parked into a Political Action Committee that is illegally funding judicial candidates; successfully evidently since our state does little or nothing to enforce illegal campaign finance activitites.
The Righteous Reverends Jesse and Al got rich with this same grift.
SPLC was a good organization, but greed got in the way. As to the addition the one billion White House addition, over $2,000,000,000 was lost for a bunch of mirrors in California.
Lots of palms were greased on that grift.
The racket known as non-profits needs to be thoroughly reformed, beginning with the "foundation" enriching master grifters Bill Clinton and Hillary Rodham.
And these salaries are for people in Alabama, correct?
It wouldn’t be so bad if they were in NYC or San Francisco.
Poverty is a commodity. Keeping folks poor, ignorant, hopeless, dependent, and uneducated has been the goal of NAACP, Jackson Public Schools, and similar scammers for decades.
1:51/3:58, I told you to be ethical, and then you try to respond to your own post to give it more credibility. Didn’t work. Sure is fun poking the hornet nest and watch you people flail about trying to give a coherent response, though.
You’re correct…They have invested heavily in the KKK, which has increased their value. In fact, without the investments from SPLC, the KKK might not have any value at all!
I now am beginning to believe that the KKK and their rallies were actually just paid actors and extras all just playing their roles for a small fee of course.
5:58, The election industry is what really needs reform.
It’s practically unregulated and completely out of control.
CLF, AAN,NRCC,MAGA Inc., Americans for Prosperity, Club for Growth...then there's " issue" groups like the NRA...the GOP already had a $60 million cash edge for this election cycle. Turning Point gave Charlie Kirk a net worth $12 million when he died.
The groups that travel and/or run local offices in every state have big expenses. And, some political groups have legal advisors and accountants and lawyers at the central office.
I keep saying it, get rid of political parties. Make serving as President and serving in Congress an honor again, not a paying job. You could make the salary for public office pay be the amount of earnings those holding national or state executive jobs claimed as taxable the previous year.
We'd not paid attention and now you'd have to be an idiot not to make money in politics. Good Lord, the insider information alone is a pot of gold!
May 7, 2026 at 2:27 PM and May 8, 2026 at 8:34 AM are in a photo finish for the winner on this subject, but neither the SPLC nor any politician would agree with this assessment.
@ SOSO,
When was the SPLC a "good " organization?
It will only be good when it is dissolved and its members are incarcerated for fraud , conspiracy, embezzlement, etc.
Yet, if this was some conservative non-profit doing this, all you commenters on here would be commenting that it is well-deserved compensation. Hypocrites.
Sorry, 12:50, but you missed the point. The salaries are outrageous no matter the ideology they’re pushing, but the whole issue is they are funding the other side just to keep themselves in business. If a conservative group was caught secretly funding pro-crime DAs, transgender treatments for minors, and DEI seminars just to have something to fundraise against, the would be no hypocrisy at all - conservatives would be howling mad.
EVERY state official, state lawyer, state judge, top to bottom, are absolutely scared to death of the SPLC. Their big-city attorneys fly into town in a law firm's private jet saying JUMP! The state asks when, where, how high and how much can we (the state) pay to make this complaint go away. It never ends, as soon as complaint is settled, the SPLC pops up with another, wac-a-mole style. SPLC does have in-state minions but that's not the real power/money behind the group.
U cannot legislate discrimination and racism no matter how hard u try. Until people’s hearts change, it is here forever. Blacks learned from the hate of the white man. It just keeps growing. Until intelligence is allowed in, this is what u get. Garbage in creates garbage coming out.
Bravo.
