- If Federal Courts Don’t Trust Trump’s DOJ, Should Civil Rights Funders?
The Department of Justice indicted the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), leading three major charitable giving platforms to freeze donations to the organization. The SPLC has not been convicted of any crime, and the IRS has not revoked its tax-exempt status, but the platforms based their actions solely on the DOJ's indictment. Federal courts have increasingly questioned the DOJ's credibility under the Trump administration, citing issues like false statements and retaliatory prosecutions.
