The Southern Poverty Law Center stands accused of funding the very hate groups it purports to fight.
It’s a shocking story, and the details beggar belief.
The most alarming element? SPLC may have helped make the 2017 Unite the Right rally happen. Said rally not only launched a Fake News crusade against President Donald Trump, it left one person dead – activist Heather Heyer.
So how did liberal late-night TV treat the revelations?
Crickets. Of course.
That gave comedian Lou Perez an opening, and he acted fast. The rebel comic, formerly of We the Internet TV, shared a new satirical video slamming the SPLC.
How?
He posed as a theater producer asking SPLC to fund his new production.
“I hear you’re giving money out, and I’m starting a new theater program for neo Nazis interested in experimental theater,” Perez said with a straight face. “We plan on being so hateful, so antisemitic … we will use the N-word, for a price, of course, and we’re looking to start immediately.”
“We can finally stage the fictional hatred that we’ve always wanted to stage,” he added.
Perez wasn’t the only comic to feast on the SPLC allegations. Fox News’ “Gutfeld!” refused to follow his late-night peers. Host Greg Gutfeld dove head first into the scandal on Wednesday’s edition of the late-night smash.
“I would say, ‘you can’t make this stuff up,’ but that’s exactly what these hate mongers were doing,” Gutfeld said. “The arsonists may have been running the fire department.”
“‘Hate’ morphs into ideas that liberals hate,” he continued, including a series of clips showing President Joe Biden spreading the Unite the Right-era “very fine people” hoax without a single fact check.
Meanwhile, “Jimmy Kimmel Live” hosted Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz to slam all things Trump. Not mentioned? The fact that Walz had to announce he won’t run for a new term following epic fraud revelations in his state.
Late-night truth tellers like Kimmel hide information that hurts their fellow Democrats once more.
Lather. Rinse. Repeat.
