“On the Holmes Front” with Frank Holmes
No one has tried to do more to destroy President Donald Trump, or America, more than billionaire Democratic donor George Soros. But President Trump just unleashed a barrage of legal charges that could see the leftist megadonor’s political causes destroyed, anti-American groups bankrupted, and some of Soros’ buddies put behind bars.
For years Soros, who has funded every left-wing cause under the sun, has deflected criticism by accusing his opponents of “anti-Semitism.” But it turns out, his billions literally funded Nazis… and the Trump administration revealed this week that the story is much worse than anyone has reported.
The Trump administration exposed how the Soros-funded Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) paid Klansmen, neo-Nazis, and hatemongers…and then used the groups’ existence to raise millions of dollars to “fight hate “ in an 11-count indictment on April 21. But this week, the case of United States v. Southern Poverty Law Center, Inc. just got a lot spicier.
The Horn has reviewed details of the superseding indictment the DOJ filed Tuesday. Technically, prosecutors did it to to tighten the legal language, but the revision also gave prosecutors a chance to go into greater detail on SPLC’s alleged crimes.
First, there’s the money. Prosecutors’ original indictment charged the SPLC with funneling $3 million in donations to the leaders of hate groups, including an organizer of the deadly Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, Virginia. The 2017 event, which cost a left-wing activist her life, allegedly inspired Joe Biden to run for president in 2020.
It turns out, that figure was way too low. The new indictment filed this week clarifies the SPLC actually spent a whopping $4.1 million between 2014 and 2023.
But the money isn’t the big issue. Instead, it’s what the money was used for.
In a mind-blowing piece of investigative work, the DOJ spells out that the SPLC spent donors’ money to stop people from leaving the Ku Klux Klan, and instead paid to found new chapters of hate groups, burn crosses, make Klan paraphernalia, and even to spread around to other white supremacist hate groups.
In 2010, two members of the Ku Klux Klan who were afraid for their safety “heard that the SPLC had helped an individual leave an extremist organization,” so they asked for the group’s help starting a hate-free life. Instead, the SPLC “encouraged (the two Klansmen) to stay in the movement and offered to pay them a $1,200.00 monthly salary.”
The group lied to a bank that one of the two worked for an SPLC front group, which didn’t really exist, “and that their job was to help college students research and write essays.”
With the SPLC’s funding, the other one ended up “rising from merely a group member to a leadership role” in a hate group.
This week’s court documents state, as part of the campaign top gin up donations, the SPLC funded cross-burnings. The SPLC used “donor money” to pay back the two men “for all expenses they incurred for cross-burning events to include the wood and fuel used,” as well as materials to sew Klan robes.
These two were far from the only ones who took SPLC/Soros cash to pose as left-wing boogeymen. Another person cashed in $70,000 over five years to recruit new members for his organization, which the SPLC then listed on a hate map advertised to donors.
To cover its tracks, the SPLC paid these people through five front groups: Center Investigative Agency, Fox Photography, North West Technologies, Tech Writers Group, and Rare Books Warehouse.
During that time, SPLC’s revenue increased 233 percent, and its net assets more than tripled. The SPLC currently holds more than $786 million in assets, according to documents reviewed by The New York Post.
“It takes money to make money,” as the old saying goes.
But lying to donors and supplying false information on official financial documents is a crime, prosecutors say, and the Trump administration has charged the SPLC with six counts of wire fraud, four counts of making false statements to a federally insured bank and one count of conspiracy to commit concealment money laundering.
Since President Trump is leading the charge, leading Democrats are flocking to defend a group that funded neo-Nazis in order to scare donations out of elderly women, including Holocaust survivors.
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., called the Trump indictment “deeply disturbing” during a passionately pro-SPLC speech the day after the original indictment.
“These charges should send a chill down the spine of every American who cares about free expression and the rule of law in the Justice Department. It should send a chill down the spine of every American who cares about civil liberties and the fight against violent extremism,” he claimed.
The idea that “the Southern Poverty Law Center (is) somehow working in coordination with the KKK. That’s ridiculous on its face. It doesn’t pass the laugh test.”
Indicting people who fund the Klan is actually racist, said Schumer. “In 1983, the Ku Klux Klan tried to burn down the Southern Poverty Law Center for exposing its hatred. More than four decades later, the Trump administration is trying to do the same thing in the courtroom,” Schumer alleged.
Unfortunately, the Senate’s top Democrat wasn’t alone.
Chuck Schumer says holding SPLC accountable for lying about the shell companies it set up to hide its Klan payments is "turning what America's all about inside out."
He suggests questioning the moral credibility of the SPLC is beyond the pale, regardless of new evidence.

Doug Jones, a Democrat who briefly held one of Alabama’s U.S. Senate seats and is now running for governor, said, “It’s absolute ridiculous to think (SPLC leaders) raise money in a fraudulent way simply because they did not disclose” that they also fund the Klan. After all, the SPLC has “done remarkable work.”
Funding Nazis and Klan rallies is certainly work remarking about.
The DOJ is just “going after (President Trump’s) political enemies,” he claimed.
Despite his weak reasoning abilities, Alabama Democrats nominated Jones to run for governor against current U.S. Senator Tommy Tuberville, who beat him in the Senate race in 2020.
But as readers of this website know, both men are really doing the bidding of major Democratic Party donor George Soros.
Charging the Southern Poverty Law Center with a federal crime for paying informants to help dismantle hate groups is an outrageous weaponization of the Dept of Justice and the FBI. As someone who has been a prosecutor and has taken on the Klan I can tell you that use of paid… pic.twitter.com/MgZMCESbNa

As The Horn told you, George Soros’ Open Society Foundations (OSF) paid $75,000 for the SPLC to create an “Anti-Hate Table” of organizations it says oppose Muslims, among other groups as part of its “$10 Million Initiative to Confront Hate.”
“Harsh rhetoric and policy proposals during the 2016 presidential campaign that drew on racist, sexist, anti-immigrant, anti-Muslims, anti-Semitic, anti-LGBT, and other forms of hate have encouraged a wave of physical and verbal attacks nationwide,” lied OSF’s press release in November 2016, just after President Donald Trump’s election.
That’s not just false; it’s the opposite of the truth. This column reported 10 years ago that Soros-funded groups attacked Trump supporters, and Soros-funded groups.
But Soros paid good money for the SPLC to tarnish Trump and the multiracial MAGA movement as white supremacists burning crosses under hoods in the dead of night. And he pays Democrats to do his bidding.
He expects service, and he got it.
But soon, SPLC leaders may end up fined or imprisoned for spinning Soros’ sordid tales—and Republicans will smile all the way to the midterms.
The Hungarian-born billionaire just learned an important lesson: If you come for the king, you’d better not miss. A two-edged sword cuts both ways.
