Social media posts from billionaire Elon Musk and Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk criticizing the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) have resurfaced after the group was indicted by the Department of Justice.
The SPLC, a left-leaning nonprofit, was indicted on 11 counts of wire fraud, bank fraud and money laundering, according to the Justice Department.
"The SPLC is an evil organization that spreads hate propaganda relentlessly. It needs to be shut down," Musk wrote on X last October.
Kirk was even more direct, labeling the SPLC a "hate group" in 2023. Months before his death, Kirk criticized the SPLC over its decision to add Turning Point USA to a list of hate groups.
