SPLC EXPOSED: DOJ Indictment, $1.2M Scandal, and the Decades-Long Lie | 06-17-26

Sam Bushman and James Edwards break down the explosive DOJ indictment against the Southern Poverty Law Center, including bombshell allegations that a top SPLC official funneled $1.2 million in donor money to a white supremacist informant she was allegedly having a romantic relationship with. They trace the SPLC's history of scandal, from its founding by Morris Dees to its near-billion-dollar fundraising machine built on fear, and ask why there has been zero accountability despite decades of exposure. Also covered: the UFC fight at the White House and what it signals culturally, plus the Supreme Court shutting down Carter Page's lawsuit against James Comey, 10 years after the Russia hoax.
