One of the biggest liberal money-making scams in history suddenly finds itself adrift and without a leader. What will the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) do now that its founder, Morris Dees, has been effectively #MeToo’ed?

The venerable nonprofit institute that is dedicated to identifying “hate” everywhere that it looks is in dire need of some new leadership. Who will come to its rescue? Be very careful if you feel like speculating that the $500 million endowment that the SPLC has sitting in offshore accounts right now is a big fat, juicy target for some unscrupulous grifters, though. You might end up on the SPLC’s Official Hate List next if you do.

Back during the Civil Rights era, junk mail king Morris Dees had a dream. He dreamt, “What if I create an organization and give it an acronym similar to Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.’s venerable SCLC? Then, what if I sent out junk mail to dyslexic little old ladies who are registered as Democrats and ask them to send me fat checks for identifying HATE?” Morris Dees’ dream has paid off, to say the least.

Today, the SPLC is the official identifier of “hate” in America. They tirelessly scour the internet looking for church websites and Ted Cruz speeches, so they can identify hate for their junk mail lists. And then they… well, that’s it. That’s all they do. They’re so good at what they do that companies like Google and Facebook rely on the SPLC to help them figure out who to censor and ban from the public square.

You might think that the town or city where you live is relatively hate-free. But you’d be wrong, and the SPLC is happy to correct you on this misconception. Do you have an Episcopalian church in your town? How about a Methodist church? Or Baptist? If so, then Tucker Carlson and Sen. Rand Paul are probably hiding in the bushes in front of your house right now – especially if you’re a little old lady who’s registered to vote as a Democrat. Tucker and Rand are wearing their Klan robes, and they’re hoping to peek in your windows right now for a look at your knickers before heading off to lynch an innocent minority. That’s how good the SPLC is at identifying hate.

Another thing to note is that identifying hate is not cheap. It costs a lot of money to run a hate-identifying nonprofit. If you don’t believe this, you should see Morris Dees’ mansions or his multiple trophy wives who are collecting alimony from him.

The New York Times wanted to get to the bottom of why Morris Dees was suddenly ousted from his own hate-identifying organization after all these years. What did they find? One employee said Morris asked her about the tattoos he saw on her hands while talking to her so she ran straight to HR and filed a complaint. Another employee says that Morris touched her hand while introducing himself to her. What a creep! What kind of pervert touches a person’s hand during an introduction?! Ugh!

Two other high-ranking SPLC officials have also fled the organization, although details on why they left are still unavailable. So, what happens if the SPLC ceases to exist? If the organization is falling apart, what happens next?

Here’s where you might want to put your skeptic hat on.

When a nonprofit organization dissolves, there are specific rules that have to be followed. First, any creditors have to be paid off. It doesn’t look like the SPLC has much, if any, debt at this point. Next, all of the remaining funds that the nonprofit has must be transferred to a different nonprofit organization.

Say what? Yes, those are the rules for 501(c)3 nonprofits like the Southern Poverty Law Center.

Everyone can relax, though, because attorney Tina Tchen is flying down to Alabama to help straighten out the SPLC. Who is Tina Tchen? Oh, she’s a long-time “fixer” who has worked for the Clintons and the Obamas. She’s the type of hard-charging, Grrrl-power feminist lawyer who swoops in to deliver the killing blow during a hostile takeover.

How is the Clinton Foundation doing these days, by the way? Oh, right. They’ve been broke since Hillary lost the 2016 election and the Clintons no longer have any influence to peddle. The Obama Foundation Library in Chicago has run into all sorts of roadblocks and is a little short on cash, too. $500 million in an offshore account is a heck of a motive.

The SPLC will probably survive the ouster of its top officials. But don’t be surprised if it rebrands under new management very soon.
