Summary

A federal grand jury charged the Southern Poverty Law Center with wire fraud, false statements, and conspiracy to commit money laundering. It appears the nonprofit organization funneled money to individuals who were associated with various violent extremist groups, including the Ku Klux Klan and Aryan Nations. Put simply, the SPLC was manufacturing racism to justify its existence. In other news, what's the latest with the missing scientists? Has Noah's ark really been found? Is it OK for heterosexual men to skip? We search for the truth. 

 

SPONSOR: -- The Coverup on BlazeTV -- This documentary series gets into—the science, the politics, and the pressure behind the story we all heard. And now the final episode, Episode 6, is out, and it’s where everything comes together.
It gets into the evidence that started raising red flags early on, the people who were questioning it before anyone else would, and why those conversations were pushed to the sidelines. In the final episode, Matt Ridely, a pro-science insider and member of the House of Lords, walks through the moment the official story stopped making sense and why he couldn’t ignore it anymore.
