The Southern Poverty Law Center allegedly paid at least three people who wanted to leave the white supremacist movement not to do so, according to the Justice Department’s superseding indictment handed down Tuesday.

A federal grand jury in April had indicted the SPLC on charges of wire fraud, bank fraud, and conspiracy to conceal money laundering. The SPLC has pleaded not guilty to the charges.

While the organization “purports to fight white supremacy and racial hatred,” Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche said in a press conference that “the SPLC was not dismantling these groups. It was instead manufacturing the extremism it purports to oppose.”

The charges revolve around the SPLC’s program paying “field sources” inside white supremacist groups, such as the Ku Klux Klan and neo-Nazi groups. The organization has maintained that it paid these informants in order to alert law enforcement to extremist violence before it happened, and some of the informants’ information did lead to prosecutions.

However, the indictment claims some of the SPLC money actually went to prop up the organizations—and the superseding indictment reveals more details of the allegations.

Reading the list of performers who have pulled out of our U.S. 250th birthday party is a joke. These people insist that they thought they were signing up for a non-partisan celebration, but have now decided (without any evidence) that it is a partisan program.

Give me a break.

What’s really going on is that these performers are Lefties, and decided they wanted to stick it to Donald Trump, who initiated the event, by making up false excuses to bow out. They were probably getting flak from those people on the Left who don’t want anything to take place that is remotely connected to Donald Trump. They are all an embarrassment to this country.

What was the event supposed to entail? Here is a partial list of the activities that will take place. Here is another description of the events. There is nothing in these words that suggest partisan influence.

My biggest concern is that Leftist organizations may be determined to wreak havoc on the activities in June and July. They hate this country and would embrace any opportunity to denigrate it, our Founders and our legacy. I don’t know how far they would go in their disruption, but I expect huge crowds will be drawn to the grounds of the White House.

Let’s all hope and pray that people will rely on their patriotic conscience and honor this country for these events. It is a once-in-a-lifetime occasion.

When I wrote about Trump Derangement Syndrome over the weekend, it was while following the discourse over the latest scandalous Graham Platner revelations. These are certainly not the first such revelations, nor will they be the last, as GOP operatives reportedly have a vast pile of opposition research on Mr. Nazi Tattoo they’re waiting to unload when the time is right. But the reaction from liberals to what came out over the weekend was to double-down, to dig their entrenchments deeper, to rationalize the necessity of defending Platner at all costs, no matter what.

German remigration activist Maximilian Märkl, who was arrested by federal police on Friday as he prepared to board a flight to Portugal and forbidden to leave the country, defied the travel ban and was greeted as a hero when he arrived at the Remigration Summit in Porto after 22 hours of driving across Europe.

“It was a little European adventure,” Märkl said in an interview with alternative TV channel AUF1, adding that the drive through Germany, France, Spain, and Portugal reminded him of “just how beautiful our homeland is and how much it’s worth fighting for.”

While expecting legal consequences upon his return to Germany, the spokesman for Identitäre Bewegung Deutschland, said he’s counting on alternative media and the organization’s support network to stand behind him.

Christians in Finland are having a hard time of it lately. On the heels of the Finnish Supreme Court convicting MP Päivi Räsänen of “hate speech” over a booklet on the biblical view on homosexuality, now the country is going after mentions of God in songs sung at school graduations.

The Finnish Discrimination and Equality Board has fined the city of Espoo for repeatedly discriminating against the same student by exposing him to Christian content in songs traditionally performed at Christmas and end-of-year celebrations in spring. The city was fined €10,000 and ordered to pay the student an additional €2,500 in compensation.

Parents of the student said in their complaint that they had not been informed ahead of time or given the opportunity to withdraw their student from the events.

The Fairfax County Police Department in Northern Virginia is investigating a swatting call at the residence of Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett Wednesday night.

“Yesterday evening at approximately 9:02 p.m., officers responded to a swatting call at the residence of U.S. Supreme Court Justice in Fairfax County,” the department’s public information officer told the Daily Signal in a Thursday phone call.

“The call was received through the department’s non-emergency line,” the officer explained. “Officers immediately coordinated with Supreme Court police personnel assigned to the residence and quickly determined that the report was fictitious. No additional police resources were utilized.”

“Swatting” refers to the practice of calling police with a false report concerning a threat or violence, aiming to convince law enforcement to send a SWAT team to the targeted location. Since SWAT teams often enter houses with little notice and can cause confusion, these calls may result in unnecessary police violence.

When asked if the police department is investigating the call, the officer said, “That’s definitely part of it; every one of those calls is investigated.”

If you want a snapshot of how far Britain has drifted from its liberal inheritance, consider the spectacle of a 78 year-old grandfather and retired pastor being warned by police that he must not preach from the Bible within a public area. His offence was not harassment, obstruction or intimidation. It was reciting and commentating on a verse many learned as children: “For God so loved the world…”

Clive Johnston’s alleged crime was breaching a ‘buffer zone’ around a hospital which houses a sexual health clinic where abortions are performed – despite the fact it was a Sunday afternoon when there were no scheduled abortions, and he made no reference whatsoever to abortion, nor motherhood, nor babies.

The state maintains he risked “influencing” anyone accessing the clinic in relation to abortion or anyone working there – a crime punishable by fine. He was prosecuted, and this week found guilty for doing so.

As ought to be self-evident, it is only possible to clearly recognize a Nazi salute, or what Germans call the ‘Hitler salute,’ in live action or in a video, but not in a still image. In a still image, anyone waving or beckoning—even, say, hailing a taxi—may appear to have been giving the Nazi salute when they were not. In certain still images, given other congruent elements, we can safely assume that those portrayed are indeed giving the Nazi salute. Thus, for example, in the historical photograph below, we can safely assume that the assembled Wehrmacht officers are not just waving to the Führer. But, otherwise, without such congruent elements, we cannot know from a still image if an outstretched right arm is a Nazi salute or not.

Celebrity land thief Billie Eilish flaunted her hypocrisy again, this week, when she scolded Americans that we are all morally repugnant for eating meat.

“Eating meat is inherently wrong,” she proclaimed in an interview with Elle Magazine.

“Two things cannot coincide,” she continued, lecturing viewers that loving animals and enjoying a good ribeye are mutually exclusive.

Apparently that makes all of us carnivore dog owners Cruella de Vil!

“Go watch some footage of what is done to the animals! if that footage was hard for u to watch i encourage u to pls take a look at urself,” she wrote on Instagram.

That’s rich, coming from a militant abortion cheerleader who has previously stated banning the dismemberment of pre-born babies makes her “so mad.” Maybe she should go watch some footage of what is done to HUMAN BEINGS in the womb and take a look at herself, if it’s also hard to watch.”

A little-talked about investment product is taking over the 401(k) world, and offering asset managers a way to increase exposure to private markets.

At the heart of the US retirement industry, underpinning the later-life plans of millions of Americans, is a set of financial products that hardly anyone can tell you a thing about.

No one knows exactly how much money they control. No one can say how it’s all allocated. No single financial regulator is in charge of them. Yet Collective Investment Trusts are now a multi-trillion dollar business to rival mutual funds or ETFs — and are poised to become the backdoor through which more private assets are added to Americans’ retirement savings.
For years now, the country’s biggest employers have been slowly migrating workers’ nest eggs toward these pooled

ehicles, which are used exclusively by retirement plans. For 401(k)s with more than 100 participants, about 40% of all assets were invested in CITs by 2024, according to Department of Labor data, up from 12% in 2010 and above the share allocated to mutual funds.

Notice the statist priorities: Knowing exactly how much money they control. Knowing how it’s all allocated. Most importantly, no single financial regulator is in charge of them.

The name never did make any sense.

When creating a short list of nefarious NGOs that manipulate government policy and socially engineer public opinion, the Southern Poverty Law Center is usually near the top. The group has been fading in influence due to excessive exposure, with new and less visible left wing NGOs taking it’s place. However, it remains a key pillar of the Democratic Party’s propaganda machine and a poisonous cloud looming over grassroots conservative organization.

News from the Trump FBI and DOJ indicates that this reign of political terror may finally be coming to an end. The Southern Poverty Law Center has been indicted on federal fraud charges that accuse it of illegally raising millions of dollars to pay informants in white supremacist and other extremist groups.

Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche said the SPLC used paid operatives within extremist circles to incite and intensify racial tensions, arguing the group fostered the very threats it claimed to fight. But why was an NGO allowed to operate like a covert federal agency for so long?

Lawyers in the Mile High State are now being strong-armed by Democrats into signing a radical anti-immigration-enforcement pledge just to do their jobs.

Refuse? You’re shut out of the system entirely. No filing lawsuits, no checking case files, no representing clients in state court. Period.

The certification reads in part: “I certify under penalty of perjury that I will not use personal identifying information obtained from the database… for the purpose of investigating for, participating in, cooperating with, or assisting in federal immigration enforcement, including enforcement of civil immigration laws and 8 U.S.C. sec. 1325 or 1326, unless required by federal or state law or to comply with a court-issued subpoena, warrant, or order.”

There are plenty of things an NBA player can do and still keep his job.

League history is littered with examples: players involved in off-court scandals, arrests, and even allegations of serious violence. Time and again, teams and the league have found ways to look past behavior that, in most professions, would be career-ending.

But there appears to be one line that cannot be crossed — especially during Holy Week.

That line, it seems, is expressing a traditional religious belief.

Enter Jaden Ivey.

The former Purdue standout was the fifth overall pick in the 2022 NBA draft, a rising young guard who averaged 16 points and five assists as a rookie with the Detroit Pistons. By his third season, he was approaching 18 points per game before an injury derailed his momentum. Eventually, he landed with the Chicago Bulls.

By all accounts, Ivey was a productive player still on the rise.

Then came an Instagram video.

In it, Ivey — now a newly converted Christian — criticized the NBA’s celebration of Pride Month. His comments reflected a conventional religious viewpoint: that pride, as celebrated in this context, conflicts with Christian teachings on sin.

“They proclaim Pride Month,” Ivey said. “They say, ‘Come join us … to celebrate unrighteousness.’”

That was enough.

Possibly the only occasion on which The Huffington Post would publish something by someone like Jesse Ventura is one where Trump is being attacked.

“Because how can you send somebody else’s kids to a war if you won’t send your own?” he asked.

Easy. You just do it, as governments have been doing for time out of mind. You only ‘send your kids to a war’ when they are conscripted to do so, under an authoritarian regime. Everybody in the current American armed forces is a volunteer.

Trump isn’t ‘sending kids to war’, he is commanding the armed forces, of which he is commander-in-chief, in pursuit of foreign policy goals, which is what Americans elected him to do.

Jesse Ventura’s attitude is the exact same attitude as the Chinese Communists under Mao, who thought that everybody ought to put some time in hoeing crops and shoveling dirt. Jesse has always been about imposing his values on other people, which negates any respect he may have earned from his military service.

If Barron Trump wants to put in some military service, which I would certainly encourage him to do, that is his decision to make—not that of a blowhard like Jesse Ventura.

One of the most preposterous claims from liberals is that somehow, conservatives uniquely try to win elections by using “fear,” “hate,” and “division,” especially on race and religion. Democrats never use any divisive, negative tactics when trying to motivate voters. It’s like they’ve never heard Chuck Schumer saying a Republican voter-ID bill is “Jim Crow 2.0.”

On March 24, PBS stations debuted a long negative campaign commercial disguised as a documentary titled White With Fear, on how “America’s conservative political machine uses racial fault lines to gain power.” The 85-minute film starts with Nixon’s campaigns, then goes on a tear against Fox News, Islamophobia after 9/11, birtherism against Obama, the Tea Party, and then into the Trump era.

In a statement, the propagandist Andrew Goldberg oozed: “I’m grateful to PBS for giving White With Fear such a prestigious platform with an extensive reach of loyal viewers. It’s the ideal home for the film — timely, relevant, and deeply connected to where our country stands today.” This “prestigious platform” is always willing to be a source of vitriolic anti-conservative content. Conservatives are just lucky we’re not paying for this garbage any more….until Democrats get back in control.

The Los Angeles Times summarized the theme: “Goldberg’s film argues that the right, using the language of white supremacy and relying on distortions, lies and misinformation campaigns against Black people, then Muslims and immigrants, have turned the GOP into a racially driven, hate-filled party of grievances.”

n a landmark clash between 15th-century religious tradition and 21st-century equality mandates, the Spanish government has initiated the formal revocation of the Holy Week of Sagunto’s National Tourist Intereststatus.

The move, announced jointly by the Ministries of Tourism and Equality, comes as a direct response to a defiant vote by the Brotherhood of the Immaculate Blood of Our Lord Jesus Christ.

The brotherhood, which has operated with male-only statutes since the late Middle Ages, recently rejected a proposal to allow women into its governing body by a margin of 267 to 114 and limits participation in the Holy Week of Sagunto to males.

The Spanish Socialist government argues that the exclusion of women violates the 2007 Equality Law and the “citizen participation” requirements necessary for state-recognized tourist festivals.

While the Institute of Women asserts that such exclusions are “not tradition but discrimination,” the brotherhood and its supporters view the government’s intervention as an ideological overreach into the autonomous life of a private religious entity.

“All the world’s a stage, and all the men and women merely players.” So wrote William Shakespeare in As You Like It. Yet certain modern-day theatregoers apparently do not understand the difference between the space upon the boards and off them; hence, they have taken Shakespeare’s words literally and decided to reshape the world around them into one gigantic interactive left-wing morality play, with themselves as the central heroes and heroines.

Working-class ‘groundlings’ crowding into the pit of the theatre during Shakespeare’s own day were notoriously unruly, but such misbehaviour was largely limited to hurling abuse and rotten fruit at thespians they took a dislike to. Middle-class theatregoers in our own day are far worse, actively attacking and trying to kill any actors they don’t like—on the grounds they are supposedly ‘Nazis’.

The controversy stems from a speech delivered on February 14th, 2025, at the Munich Security Conference, a major annual gathering of Western political and military leaders. Speaking the day after a deadly attack in Munich, Vance sharply criticised what he described as a decline in freedom of speech and democratic values across Europe.

The European Commission presented its new strategy, “ProtectEU: Agenda to prevent and counter terrorism,” an ambitious document that seeks to update the Union’s response to an evolving threat environment.

On paper, the initiative aims to anticipate risks, prevent radicalisation, and strengthen police and judicial cooperation. In practice, however, it seeks to broaden the concept of “terrorism” and “violent extremism” to such an extent that it ultimately encompasses increasingly diffuse political and cultural categories (and is convenient for those in power).

The result is a framework in which the boundary between criminal violence and ideological dissent becomes dangerously blurred.

The document itself acknowledges that, although jihadist terrorism remains “the most prominent and lethal threat,” terrorist actors are driven by a “growing range of motivations,” including the “rejection of European democratic values,” antisemitism, anti-Muslim hatred and, among others, “anti-LGBTQ+ hatred,” misogyny, racism, “anti-system ideologies,” or even “nihilism.”

If you’ve been following the news feed over the last few days, you’ll be aware that a young French identitarian named Quentin was severely beaten by Antifa thugs in Lyon, and eventually died from his wounds.

Hard-left militants attacked 23-year-old Quentin Deranque after a peaceful demonstration organized by the right-wing feminist organization Collectif Némésis during a conference hosted by Rima Hassan. Mr. Deranque was helping to provide security for the women of Collectif Némésis, protecting them from the same people who eventually killed him. He was attacked by at least six thugs, and a disturbing video shows the vicious final kick in the head that he received.

Ms. Hassan is an activist of Palestinian descent who was born in Syria and moved to France as a child. In 2023 she founded the “Action Palestine France” collective and joined La France Insoumise, a far-left political party founded by Jean-Luc Mélenchon.

The victim, Quentin Deranque, aged 23, had been hospitalised and placed into a coma on Thursday after being attacked in the southeastern city of Lyon. The office of the Lyon prosecutor on Saturday told AFP Deranque had died of his wounds.
