Justice Dept Indictment of SPLC Confirms Long-Held Suspicions of Leftist/Progressive Groups Funding Racism and Chaos


Posted originally on CTH on April 21, 2026 | Sundance | 

The DOJ indictment of the Southern Poverty Law Center for wire fraud, money laundering and false statements [Indictment Here], confirms long-held suspicions that Democrat-aligned activist groups have been financing racism, hate mobs and political violence.

For all intents and purposes, the SPLC is a leftist/progressive activist organization who bills itself as anti-racism, yet this same SPLC organization was using cut outs to fund the Ku Klux Klan, the United Klans of America, Unite the Right, National Alliance, National Socialist Movement, Aryan Nations affiliated, Sadistic Souls Motorcycle Club, National Socialist Party of America (American Nazi Party) and American Front.

In essence, Democrats funding extremist groups, just so they can label them as right-wing.

For years we have suspected that financing for civic unrest and racist endeavors was coming from the far-left, today’s indictment proves that very point. Democrats fuel chaos and finance the organizations they label as Facist or racist. Democrats funding the Unite the Right chaos in Charlottesville, then Democrats construct a false narrative about Unite the Right supporting republicans.  Antifa, Occupy Wall Street, Anarchists, Black Lives Matter, Dream Defenders, etc. etc.

The DOJ indictment identifies the SPLC as one organization doing this: but really, it’s an entire network.  Keep digging into this issue, specifically this type of approach, and we will likely find the financial mechanism of most toxic American division – Democrats.

(VIA DOJ) – A Grand Jury in Montgomery, Alabama, today returned an indictment charging the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) with 11 counts of wire fraud, false statements to a federally insured bank, and conspiracy to commit concealment money laundering.  The United States Attorney’s Office for the Middle District of Alabama Northern Division filed two forfeiture actions to recover alleged proceeds of the organization’s fraud scheme. The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) investigated this case with assistance from the Internal Revenue Service Criminal Investigation (IRS-CI).

“The SPLC is manufacturing racism to justify its existence,” said Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche. “Using donor money to allegedly profit off Klansmen cannot go unchecked. This Department of Justice will hold the SPLC and every other fraudulent organization operating with the same deceptive playbook accountable. No entity is above the law.”

“The SPLC allegedly engaged in a massive fraud operation to deceive their donors, enrich themselves, and hide their deceptive operations from the public,” said FBI Director Kash Patel. “They lied to their donors, vowing to dismantle violent extremist groups, and actually turned around and paid the leaders of these very extremist groups – even utilizing the funds to have these groups facilitate the commission of state and federal crimes. That is illegal – and this is an ongoing investigation against all individuals involved.”

The SPLC is a non-profit organization headquartered in Montgomery, Alabama, whose mission, according to its website during the relevant time period, was to be a “catalyst for racial justice in the South and beyond, working in partnership with communities to dismantle white supremacy, strengthen intersectional movements, and advance the human rights of all people.”

According to the indictment starting in the 1980s, the SPLC began operating a covert network of individuals who were either associated with violent and extremist groups, such as the Ku Klux Klan, or who had infiltrated violent extremist groups at the SPLC’s direction.  Unbeknownst to donors, some of their donated money was being used to fund the leaders and organizers of racist groups at the same time that the SPLC was denouncing the same groups on its website.

“Donors gave their money believing they were supporting the fight against violent extremism,” said Acting United States Attorney Kevin Davidson. “As alleged, the SPLC instead diverted a portion of those funds to benefit individuals and groups they claimed to oppose. That kind of deception undermines public trust and social cohesion.”

Between 2014 and 2023, the SPLC secretly funneled more than $3 million in donated funds to individuals who were associated with various violent extremist groups including:

    • Ku Klux Klan
    • United Klans of America
    • Unite the Right
    • National Alliance
    • National Socialist Movement
    • Aryan Nations affiliated Sadistic Souls Motorcycle Club
    • National Socialist Party of America (American Nazi Party)
    • American Front

According to the indictment, the objective of the scheme and artifice was to obtain money via donations through materially false representations and omissions about what the donated funds would be used for.

In order to covertly pay the individuals, the SPLC opened bank accounts connected to a series of fictitious entities. The covert nature of the accounts allowed the SPLC to disguise the true nature, source, ownership, and control of the fraudulently obtained donated money the SPLC paid the individuals. In order to keep the scheme going, the SPLC made a series of false statements related to the operation of the accounts.   

A conviction will result in the forfeiture of financial gains from the alleged illegal activities. (more)

If these groups are using money laundering and wire-fraud to manipulate the American psyche via activist groups, don’t you think these same groups would apply the same approach to manipulating the American psyche via algorithms intended to boost, say, well, Nick Fuentes?

Think about it.

This is the way the Chicago community organizer operated.

House Committee Report Shows ActBlue Officials Invoked 5th Amendment 146 Times During Donor Fraud Probe


Posted originally on CTH on April 20, 2026 | Sundance | 67 Comments

Democrats send swat teams when evidence of illegal behavior surfaces. Republicans, well, they issue reports. LIKE THIS ONE.

The summary is: the Democrats ActBlue fundraising apparatus is a scheme to launder foreign funds and hide large donor activity through a process of straw (fake) small amount donors.  The House Judiciary Committee investigated as media reports of the fraud began to surface.  The House sent subpoenas to five key ActBlue witnesses.  The witnesses showed up and plead the fifth – Twitter Summary Here.

WASHINGTON — ActBlue employees invoked their Fifth Amendment right at least 146 times in depositions with congressional committees investigating alleged donor fraud on the fundraising platform, according to an explosive report released Monday.

Two ActBlue officials, one of whom formerly served as VP of customer service, and three of its former lawyers “declined to answer a single one of the Committees’ substantive questions,” stated the interim staff report from the House Administration, Oversight and Judiciary Committees.

“Their unwillingness to testify only amplifies the Committees’ concerns,” the report added of the depositions between July and December 2025, also citing ActBlue CEO Regina Wallace-Wells’ seemingly “false statements to Congress” and withholding of documents pursuant to a subpoena for records. (read more)

Acting on his own investigation, media reporting from the New York Times as well as his own state investigation, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxtron has filed a lawsuit against ActBlue.

Witnesses to Potential Criminal Conduct of Former CIA Director John Brennan Receive Subpoenas


Posted originally on CTH on April 20, 2026 | Sundance | 

Leaks, probably from individuals just starting to receive subpoenas, are now quickly making their way to the media. The goal seems to be to rally as much corporate media support as possible, with a subtle push to initiate an Alinsky process.

The media’s formerly predictable compliance toward generating a needed Alinsky lawfare strategy is, however, made more complicated by the recent purchases of several major corporate media conglomerates by Larry and David Ellison.  A shifted tone, that can be noted, is in the responsive outcome of the leak received by CBS News:

(Via CBS) – Former senior intelligence and FBI officials who are cooperating with the U.S. Justice Department’s criminal probe into whether former CIA Director John Brennan lied to Congress were subpoenaed over the weekend to testify before a grand jury in Washington, D.C., multiple sources familiar with the matter told CBS News.

The subpoenas went out shortly after the Justice Department appointed conservative Trump ally Joe DiGenova to formally take over the criminal investigation into Brennan after the career prosecutor handling the case was removed late last week, CBS previously reported.

DiGenova is a staunch loyalist of President Trump who previously represented his campaign in its failed efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election. 

The cooperating witnesses are scheduled to appear before the grand jury as soon as this week, sources said. Many of them have been cooperating with the probe and were already scheduled to sit down for interviews with FBI agents and prosecutors before the new grand jury subpoenas came out over the weekend.

The decision to abruptly reschedule the voluntary interviews from cooperators and ask for in-person grand jury testimony is unusual, legal experts told CBS.  Customarily such interviews are conducted outside of the grand jury, and agents later provide details from them to grand jurors about what the witnesses told them under oath.

The move could be an effort by DiGenova to use every avenue possible, after grand jurors in Washington D.C. have increasingly declined to indict targets in cases that were widely perceived as politically motivated. (read more)

“Joseph E. diGenova has been sworn in as Counselor to the Attorney General at the U.S. Department of Justice, stepping into a senior advisory role on key legal, policy, and enforcement matters. With decades of experience—including serving as U.S. Attorney for D.C. under Ronald Reagan—diGenova brings deep expertise in federal prosecution and high-stakes investigations. Praised by U.S. Attorney Jason A. Reding Quiñones for his leadership and judgment, he will help advance the Department’s mission to protect Americans, enforce the rule of law, and ensure impartial justice.” (SOURCE)

Heavenly Father, grant those who lead this charge with wisdom in every decision they face. Help them discern the right path, avoid harmful choices, and act with clarity and confidence. Guide their minds and hearts to align every decision with Your will. Remove confusion, fear, and doubt, and replace them with insight, patience, and understanding. Let Your wisdom shape their actions, ensuring that each step leads to success, truthfulness and clarity. May all their choices honor Your presence as the one, true guide through the challenges ahead.  ~ Amen

“It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled, or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena; whose face is marred by the dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming; who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions and spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best, knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who, at worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly; so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory or defeat.”

~Theodore Roosevelt

Counsel to the Attorney General, has a nice ring to it.

Heavenly Father, strengthen us when we feel weak and weary. Grant us perseverance to face challenges with courage and determination. Help us to trust in Your guidance, remain steadfast in our faith, and overcome every obstacle that comes our way. Fill our heart with confidence and resilience, allowing us to stay focused on our goals. May Your power flow through us so that we may achieve success that honors You and fulfills the purpose You have established for our life and this mission. Lord of righteousness, strengthen our faith so that we do not become discouraged, nor act impulsively. Grant us focus, discipline and energy so that every accomplishment can be a reflection of Your guidance. May every step we take align with Your will, and may patience guide us to sustain success with honor, fidelity and stewardship.  Amen

DNI Tulsi Gabbard Outlines Reason for Criminal Referral of Trump Impeachment Collaborators


Posted originally on CTH on April 16, 2026 | Sundance 

Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, appears for an interview with Katie Pavlich to outline the importance of bringing all of the information about the Intelligence Community targeting of President Trump to the public.

Sunlight is the best disinfectant, and We the People want to see accountability for the Machiavellian conduct.  The intelligence community targeted President Trump and people within the CIA ran an operation to remove him.  These people have names and titles that have remained hidden, DNI Tulsi Gabbard is putting those names, specific names into the public psyche so we can have a full understanding of what took place.

Now, for many here this may seem like information we have all known about; however, Gabbard is providing the receipts, the actual evidence, of how these IC operations took place.  WATCH:

.

DNI Gabbard is showing how specific people within government weaponized their positions to conduct some of the most insidious schemes in modern U.S. history.  The criminality of those schemes is for others in Main Justice to determine, but the evidence of those schemes is clear.

I am thankful that people are now starting to use the new information to review past timelines. [SEE HERE] What they will discover is that Michael Atkinson’s work with Mary McCord and the Lawfare network are not isolated events. This is a continuum of targeting against Donald Trump using all of the intelligence levers at their disposal.

Michael Atkinson and Eric Ciaramella are the current names, but beside them sits Mary McCord, Norm Eisen, Andrew Weissmann, Barry Berke, Dan Goldman, Benjamin Wittes and many others from the Lawfare community.  They intersect with various high level government officials in Main Justice, the FBI, the CIA, NSA and various intelligence agencies.

This is the nest of Deep State and Tulsi Gabbard is exposing it.

President Trump Releases a Statement on the Iranian Refusal to Stop Building a Nuclear Weapon


Posted originally on CTH on April 12, 2026 | Sundance

I am going to outline a contextual background for the Iranian conflict and my opinion of the current situation in detail. In short, I stand with President Trump’s position, but many of the influential aspects are being missed.

The anti-interventionist podcasters and the Israel-first advocates are both wrong. An honest and pragmatic review of the entire regional dynamic is needed.  Which includes the big picture question that no one is asking.

In the interim, here is the statement from President Trump describing the current status, against the backdrop of Vice President JD Vance’s earnest efforts to negotiate a resolution:

[VIA TRUTH SOCIAL] – “Iran promised to open the Strait of Hormuz, and they knowingly failed to do so. This caused anxiety, dislocation, and pain to many people and Countries throughout the World.

They say they put mines in the water, even though all of their Navy, and most of their “mine droppers,” have been completely blown up. They may have done so, but what ship owner would want to take the chance?

There is great dishonor and permanent harm to the reputation of Iran, and what’s left of their “Leaders,” but we are beyond all of that. As they promised, they better begin the process of getting this INTERNATIONAL WATERWAY OPEN AND FAST! Every Law in the book is being violated by them.

I have been fully debriefed by Vice President JD Vance, Special Envoy Steve Witkoff, and Jared Kushner, on the meeting that took place in Islamabad through the kind and very competent leadership of Field Marshal Asim Munir, and Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, of Pakistan. They are very extraordinary men, and continuously thank me for saving 30 to 50 million lives in what would have been a horrendous War with India. I always appreciate hearing that — The amount of Humanity spoken of is incomprehensible.

The meeting with Iran began early in the morning and lasted throughout the night — Close to 20 hours. I could go into great detail, and talk about much that has been gotten but, there is only one thing that matters — IRAN IS UNWILLING TO GIVE UP ITS NUCLEAR AMBITIONS!

In many ways, the points that were agreed to are better than us continuing our Military Operations to conclusion, but all of those points don’t matter compared to allowing Nuclear Power to be in the hands of such volatile, difficult, unpredictable people.

My three Representatives, as all of this time went by, became, not surprisingly, very friendly and respectful of Iran’s Representatives, Mohammad-Bagher Ghalibaf, Abbas Araghchi, and Ali Bagheri, but that doesn’t matter because they were very unyielding as to the single most important issue and, as I have always said, right from the beginning, and many years ago, IRAN WILL NEVER HAVE A NUCLEAR WEAPON!

[PART II] – “So, there you have it, the meeting went well, most points were agreed to, but the only point that really mattered, NUCLEAR, was not.

Effective immediately, the United States Navy, the Finest in the World, will begin the process of BLOCKADING any and all Ships trying to enter, or leave, the Strait of Hormuz. At some point, we will reach an “ALL BEING ALLOWED TO GO IN, ALL BEING ALLOWED TO GO OUT” basis, but Iran has not allowed that to happen by merely saying, “There may be a mine out there somewhere,” that nobody knows about but them.

THIS IS WORLD EXTORTION, and Leaders of Countries, especially the United States of America, will never be extorted. I have also instructed our Navy to seek and interdict every vessel in International Waters that has paid a toll to Iran. No one who pays an illegal toll will have safe passage on the high seas.

We will also begin destroying the mines the Iranians laid in the Straits. Any Iranian who fires at us, or at peaceful vessels, will be BLOWN TO HELL! Iran knows, better than anyone, how to END this situation which has already devastated their Country. Their Navy is gone, their Air Force is gone, their Anti Aircraft and Radar are useless, Khomeini, and most of their “Leaders,” are dead, all because of their Nuclear ambition.

The Blockade will begin shortly. Other Countries will be involved with this Blockade. Iran will not be allowed to profit off this Illegal Act of EXTORTION. They want money and, more importantly, they want Nuclear. Additionally, and, at an appropriate moment, we are fully “LOCKED AND LOADED,” and our Military will finish up the little that is left of Iran!” ~

President Trump Blasts the Grifters, Blackpillers and Anti-MAGA Podcasters


Posted originally on CTH on April 9, 2026 | Sundance |

I’m really glad to see this from President Trump, because it clears up the big question of whether he recognized what the blackpill/grifter crowd was doing to split the larger MAGA coalition. Turns out, yes—he definitely sees it.

Not only does he see it, but he takes the issue head-on. Very nice to see.

[Via Truth Social] – “I know why Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly, Candace Owens, and Alex Jones have all been fighting me for years, especially by the fact that they think it is wonderful for Iran, the Number One State Sponsor of Terror, to have a Nuclear Weapon — Because they have one thing in common, Low IQs.

They’re stupid people, they know it, their families know it, and everyone else knows it, too! Look at their past, look at their record. They don’t have what it takes, and they never did! They’ve all been thrown off Television, lost their Shows, and aren’t even invited on TV because nobody cares about them, they’re NUT JOBS, TROUBLEMAKERS, and will say anything necessary for some “free” and cheap publicity.

Now they think they get some “clicks” because they have Third Rate Podcasts, but nobody’s talking about them, and their views are the opposite of MAGA — Or I wouldn’t have won the Presidential Election in a LANDSLIDE.

MAGA agrees with me, and just gave CNN a 100% Approval Rating of “TRUMP,” not Hand Flailing Fools like Tucker Carlson, who couldn’t even finish College, he was a broken man when he got fired from Fox, and he’s never been the same — Perhaps he should see a good psychiatrist! Or Megyn Kelly, who nastily asked me the now famous, “Only Rosie O’Donnell,” question, or “Crazy” Candace Owens, who accuses the Highly Respected First Lady of France of being a man, when she is not, and will hopefully win lots of money in the ongoing lawsuit.

Actually, to me, the First Lady of France is a far more beautiful woman than Candace, in fact, it’s not even close! Or Bankrupt Alex Jones, who says some of the dumbest things, and lost his entire fortune, as he should have, for his horrendous attack on the families of the Sandy Hook shooting victims, ridiculously claiming it was a hoax.

These so-called “pundits” are LOSERS, and they always will be! Now Fake News CNN, The Failing New York Times, and all of the other Radical Left “News” Organizations, are “hailing” them, and giving them “positive” press for the first time in their lives. They’re not “MAGA,” they’re losers, just trying to latch on to MAGA.

As President, I could get them on my side anytime I want to, but when they call, I don’t return their calls because I’m too busy on World and Country Affairs and, after a few times, they go “nasty,” just like Marjorie “Traitor” Brown, but I no longer care about that stuff, I only care about doing right for our Country.

MAGA is about WINNING and STRENGTH in not allowing Iran to have Nuclear Weapons. MAGA is about MAKING AMERICA GREAT AGAIN, and these people have no idea how to do that, BUT I DO, because THE UNITED STATES IS NOW THE “HOTTEST” COUNTRY ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD!”

First Lady Melania Trump Calls for Public Congressional Testimony from Epstein Victims


Posted originally on CTH on April 9, 2026 | Sundance

First Lady Melania Trump sets the record straight on false claims about her and her husband’s relationship with Jeffrey Epstein.  WATCH:

[Transcript Statement] – “Good afternoon.

The lies linking me with the disgraceful Jeffrey Epstein need to end today.

The individuals lying about me are devoid of ethical standards, humility, and respect. I do not object to their ignorance, but rather, I reject their mean-spirited attempts to defame my reputation.

I have never been friends with Epstein. Donald and I were invited to the same parties as Epstein from time to time, since overlapping in social circles is common in New York City and Palm Beach.

To be clear, I never had a relationship with Epstein or his accomplice, Maxwell. My email reply to Maxwell cannot be categorized as anything more than casual correspondence. My polite reply to her email doesn’t amount to anything more than a trivial note.

I am not Epstein’s victim. Epstein did not introduce me to Donald Trump. I met my husband, by chance, at a New York City party in 1998. This initial encounter with my husband is documented in detail in my book, MELANIA.

The first time I crossed paths with Epstein was in the year 2000, at an event Donald and I attended together. At the time, I had never met Epstein and had no knowledge of his criminal undertakings.

Numerous fake images and statements about Epstein and me have been circulating on social media for years now. Be cautious about what you believe. These images and stories are completely false.

I am not a witness or a named witness in connection with any of Epstein’s crimes. My name has never appeared in court documents, depositions, victim statements, or FBI interviews surrounding the Epstein matter.

I have never had any knowledge of Epstein’s abuse of his victims. I was never involved in any capacity—I was not a participant, was never on Epstein’s plane, and never visited his private island.

I have never been legally accused or convicted of a crime in connection with Epstein’s sex trafficking, abuse of minors, and other repulsive behavior.

The false smears about me from mean-spirited and politically motivated individuals and entities looking to cause damage to my good name to gain financially and climb politically must stop.

My attorneys and I have fought these unfounded and baseless lies with success and will continue to maintain my sound reputation without hesitation. To date, several individuals and companies have been legally obligated to publicly apologize and retract their lies about me, such as The Daily Beast, James Carville, and Harper Collins UK.

Now is the time for Congress to act. Epstein was not alone. Several prominent male executives resigned from their powerful positions after this matter became widely politicized. Of course, this doesn’t amount to guilt, but we still must work openly and transparently to uncover the truth.

I call on Congress to provide the women who have been victimized by Epstein with a public hearing specifically centered around the survivors. Give these victims their opportunity to testify under oath in front of Congress, with the power of sworn testimony. Each and every woman should have her day to tell her story in public, if she wishes, and then her testimony should be permanently entered into the Congressional Record.

Then, and only then, will we have the truth.”

Tucker Carlson Jumps the Shark – Attacks Rev. Franklin Graham and Samaritan’s Purse with Ridiculous Smears and Lies


Posted originally on CTH on April 9, 2026 | Sundance

Apparently, Tucker Carlson thought it would be a good idea to use his platform to attack Franklin Graham, Samaritan’s Purse and the faith-based community. Tucker Carlson made a big mistake.

There are situations that we sometimes have a great deal of familiarity with. The work of Samaritan’s Purse and Franklin Graham is one of those situations for me. Readers here will know of my time spent as a CERT volunteer during national disasters, most of which involve hurricane relief.

I have worked closely with Samaritan’s purse, spent time inside that organization and know the scale of assistance they provide. They are, quite simply, the single most effective emergency response mission in our nation.

On his podcast, Tucker Carlson and guest “Bro” Nathan Apffel spin a conspiracy tale that’s wildly out of touch with reality.

At the same time, they mock Christianity and Christian beliefs while taking aim at Franklin Graham, accusing him, among other things, of profiting from the Samaritan’s Purse mission.

You can watch Carlson and Apffel HERE. I’m not going to promote it, because it is sick, twisted, very dark and full of flat out lies.

Carlson even goes as far as to claim: Franklin Graham has a billionaire doomsday bunker in Alaska which he created from the donations to the organization, Samaritan’s purse has a $2.5 billion war chest and ownership of private airplanes worth $15o million which Graham and his leadership use for personal travel and self-enrichment.

Let me be very specific and very clear, every single thing they claim is false; demonstrably false and easily disproven for anyone who spent even five-minutes looking at the IRS filings of the organization [SEE HERE].

Why Tucker Carlson would choose to attack Franklin Graham and Samaritan’s Purse is a bewildering question.  President Trump’s decision to ostracize Carlson from any contact with the White House completely makes sense now.

Listening to the dark voices and whispers on your shoulder, is dangerous.  That internal gnawing inside the spirit of Carlson is NOT the voice of God.

♦ Starting with the conspiracy theory first, Carlson claims Franklin Graham holds a doomsday bunker in Alaska. This is False.

Franklin Graham hosts “Marriage Encounter” events in Alaska, near his own small property (less than a quarter acre). The events are for military husbands and wives who are in desperate need of marital support, before the marriage collapses.

Usually this is a husband and wife in crisis, often driven by the stress of military service, extended absences, financial pressures, pornography and/or serious disturbing events that have fractured the marriage.

Franklin Graham and his entire ministry believe that marriage is a sacrament, and every effort must be made between spouses to hold on to their relationship with God. The Marriage Encounter events are designed specifically to renew Christianity in the relationship and save the marriage.

The area in Alaska is not an “end times” bunker complex. It is a few buildings, cabins on a lake, in a very remote area where the military family marriage encounter workshops take place. There are no distractions, and the remote area is next to a small quarter acre plot where Franklin Graham has a home.

The entire area is very remote and does not have municipal electricity. They use generators for power. The 60,000 gal above ground diesel storage is brought in to power the generators that provide electricity to the venue. The remote area is only habitable for 3 months in the summer. It is part of the Samaritans Purse mission.  The small native community around the area also benefits from the provision of electricity.

I am going to be quoting from the IRS 990 forms that are available HERE:

♦ Next, the issue of compensation. Franklin Graham received $466,000 in base compensation and $407,000 in other reportable IRS compensation.

What is “other compensation” as required to be reported by the IRS filing? Food, Lodging, Benefits, Air Travel, charter travel, security, logistics for Franklin Graham’s mission and much more. As outlined in the 990 form.

Read the highlighted passages.

[Expand image and read the details]

♦ Tucker Carlson claims that Samaritan’s Purse has $150 million in private aircraft.  That is false!

The $150 million valuation is the total value of all equipment owned and operated by Samaritan’s Purse and includes: Hospital tents, field hospital equipment, semi-trucks, tools, chainsaws, ATVs, small and medium sized trucks, hammers, logistical supplies, food, fuel, front end loaders, backhoes, tractors, pile drivers, portable air conditioners, lumber, MRE’s, all the equipment – the works.

The “equipment” is all the stuff that is dispatched when Samaritans Purse goes on lifesaving emergency disaster operations, in the USA and abroad, with a Christian focus to the mission.  They spent $348 million purchasing it, the equipment has depreciated $196 million, it is now worth an estimated $151.8 million.  This stuff is not hard to find out.

♦ Tucker claims that Samaritan’s Purse has $2.4 billion in liquid assets. Again, false.

As the 990 shows, the $2.4 billion is the total of all Samaritan’s Purse assets. Land, Buildings, Equipment, accounts, tangible assets, property, leases, everything.

Samaritan’s Purse took in $1.83 billion with the vast majority of it coming from donors ($1.76 billion) all around the world, not just in the USA.  They spent $1.1 billion on operational expenses, disaster relief and mission work, leaving them with $746 million residual which is added to the prior year net totaling $2.4 billion in all assets at the end of 2024.

The total assets of the organization including all tangible property, equipment and cash totals $2.4 billion.

Summary: There is no charity more vital, more successful, more faith based and functionally responsible for helping our nation in times of crisis than Samaritans Purse.

Importantly, everything they do is above board, easy to research, easy to inquire about and accessible to anyone who would have questions about any of it.

There is no conspiracy, no hidden agenda and no dark organizational intention other than to help people, spread the word and love of Jesus Christ and show up when people and communities are in crisis.  That is what Samaritan’s Purse does, and they are exceptionally efficient doing it.

The organization is a stickler for detail and financial responsibility, and they are light-years more effective than FEMA.

I have no idea what Tucker Carlson hoped to achieve with his attack against Franklin Graham and the people at Samaritan’s Purse; however, one thing is certain – none of it came from a place of light or good.  Tucker Carson is on a very dark trajectory, and I have dismissed several issues of his in the past thinking he was just making poor decisions.

This attack on Graham and Samaritan’s Purse, however, is not a poor decision.  He is doing this with a willful attempt at deception bearing false witness, and it will not end well.

It is totally understandable why President Trump and the people around him have pushed a great distance from themselves and the dark imaginings of Tucker Carlson.

Without a fully repentant apology from Tucker Carlson toward Franklin Graham and the entire Samaritan’s Purse organization, I will never highlight anything from him again.  This time he has just gone too far.
