About this episode

Mat Staver discusses the federal indictment against the Southern Poverty Law Center regarding its alleged fraudulent activities.

Mat Staver is the Founder and Chairman of Liberty Counsel. Mat is a constitutional attorney with three landmark cases before the U.S. Supreme Court. He is an author and the host of the radio broadcasts Faith & Freedom and Freedom's Call and the TV broadcast Freedom Alive. The information is shocking: for years, the Southern Poverty Law Center raised tons of money claiming they were exposing organizations with ties to hate groups and with ties to white supremacy including the Ku Klux Klan. Last Tuesday a federal indictment was handed down by the acting Attorney General Todd Blanche who said, "The SPLC was not dismantling these groups; it was instead manufacturing the extremism it purports to oppose." FBI Director Kash Patel said, "The SPLC used the money they raised from their donor network to actually pay the leadership of these very groups." With us today is one of the organizations that the SPLC listed as a so-called "hate group."
