For years now, the hate-filled Leftist propaganda group known as the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) has defamed our American Freedom Defense Initiative (AFDI), one of the foremost organizations fighting to preserve freedom in America today, as a “hate group.” The smear has been irritating, but ultimately ineffective in stopping our work. Now, however, House Democrats are determined to change that: the Democrat-controlled House Ways and Means Committee has called for stripping tax-exempt status from 60 “hate groups,” including AFDI.
They cannot refute us. They cannot defeat us. They cannot silence us. So they’re determined to destroy us.
This is just the culmination of a systematic attempt to decimate all of our fundraising opportunities, so that we simply wither and die from lack of resources. Because of the SPLC’s libel, we have been banned from Google AdSense, banned from Facebook, and banned from Amazon Smile, which devotes some of Amazon’s proceeds to the charity of your choice, unless it is a charity that is hated by the Left.
That’s not all. While all this has been going on, the SPLC’s stooges in the establishment media have eagerly smeared our good names in the public square. By calling us “hate group leaders,” “bigots” and the like, they have destroyed our reputations, so that good, patriotic but uninformed Americans people are afraid to be associated with us, much less to give to us.
These massive hate machines such as the SPLC, Media Matters, the Hamas-tied Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) and others have tens of millions, if not hundreds of millions, of dollars to deploy to spread their lies and defamation. And now the House Democrats are working with these unsavory groups that are using their enormous wealth to target even our smallest contributions, taking away our tax-exempt status so that small contributors can’t even get a modicum of tax relief as they support our efforts. The Democrats are hoping to drive us to ruin.
As if this could stop us. As if that could stop our faith, our fight, or the inevitability of our victory. We are going to fight this, and we are going to win.
But now more than ever, we need your help. We need people with courage, and with a determination to save America as the world’s beacon of freedom. We need patriots who are willing to sacrifice to preserve our freedoms for our children and our children’s children. We need you.
The crisis is more severe than ever. The stakes couldn’t be higher. Even if your donation is only $50 or $75, it will help us in our efforts against authoritarianism and Sharia. No one but AFDI is taking the fight to the enemies of freedom, challenging their steady encroachments on free speech and free expression.

When Trump was voted for as US President I really envied you in the US. But now it seems that it will not help. As they are not able to get him out of the White House as quickly as possible the destroyers of your country work the faster on other levels of destruction.
In Europe it took several decades to the way we live today, but in North America, both Canada and the US it appears to me that it works like a high-speed blue print to Europe. US-Americans, take care of your home country, it seems to me that the destruction speeds up on every level Trump cannot handle as a President. And for the Canadians I hope that you vote wisely these days.

It’s scary here in Canada. The liberals are fighting hard to pass a bill that pretty much calls any criticism of Islam “Hate Speech” a criminal offense
The same wife beating imam Turdolt poses with, Andrew Scheer, the conservative leader, has happily posed with too.
And the Rebel Media, our ONLY conservative news source – headed by Ezra Levant – is not only being banned from all sorts of liberal press events, Andrew Scheer has actually arrested one of the Rebel’s reporters, to have him removed from a CONSERVATIVE election event.
Maxime Bernier is the ONLY political candidate out there publicly vocal about the muslim problem, (As in phony refugees). So far he hasn’t been allowed in ANY of leadership debates, (Although the CBC MIGHT have finally been forced to allow him) and a number of his events have been protested by the same violent nut jobs who hate President Trump.
These nuts actually blocked a little old lady with a walker, and her husband, from getting into a Bernier event.
It was insane.
She’s struggle God knows how long to turn her walker in another direction, and just as she’d get started, the thug would jam his (or her cause they were all masked up like the vile cowards they are) foot under the walker’s wheels.
When the husband, old as he was, tried to push through, the freaks screamed “Don’t you f***ing touch me! Don’t you f***ing touch me!”
There’s gotta be a special place in Hell for people who accost little old ladies.
andra says
It pretty much sounds like Germany. In my area we had an AfD event. It was not advertised a lot in order to keep away the hordes of lefties, but since it took place the tenant of the hall we stayed in is bullied by the Greenies and Lefties as if he were a criminal.
The old lady with the walker made it into the conservative blog journalistenwatch here in Germany. It is uncreadible to see this Kind of shocking News from Canada. I have lived in BC years ago and loved it so much for your freedom – and now?
And for Rebel Media, I hope they will stay active against all odds. Now and then I get some ews from this site

My respect for Maxime Bernier grew a lot in the last few months as he proved to be the only political figure tackling the the real and rapidly growing threat of Islam, seriously. Unfortunately he won’t be able to break through as the majority of Canadians are willfully in the dark and they like it that way!
Briefly, the real problem lie with the masses, who affect results of democratic elections. Their belief systems, thinking, conditioning and above all their attitude toward money, riches and their priorities in life, in general, should be altered or changed to have a real change in the top.
Andrew Scheer was talking like Maxime, just up to two years ago. I guess he knew that if he was going to continue being the leader of his party and win the elections, he should change his tone and words about Islam’s threat. It’s working for him.
Change should come from the bottom up not top down, in such societies.

Trump is doing everything possible! He keeps us safe, Trump keeps America, America for the Americans! If it werent for Trump the democrats would have sold our Country to the highest bidder ! So sorry you are wrong about Trump! We love him here in America, its the loony left and their lies like the lates whistleblower, Schiff was involved in that, i think obama is jeeping his self hidden and quiet for a reason. Hopefully we’ll find out very soon
andra says
You get me wrong. I believe that Trump is doing his best. But the Left has taken several decades to take over most institutions on just about each level. And he cannot change that within four or eight years.
And by the way, in numbers more Americans voted for the Democrats, you were only lucky that your Voting System brought Trump into the White House.
But I bet that the left is already moving their troops towards those states that could be taken over again. It was this way after the German Reunion. The SED sent out their voters to the western part of Germany so that the SED (now called Die Linke) could run for the elections and destroy Germany from within right from the beginning. Because of that they were able to move the Capital from my beloved Bonn to Berlin and keep their networks in Berlin in order to take over the country step by step.

The listing of the affected organizations is found at,

You’ll notice three tiny Muslim groups (assessed by name alone) are included. To show that the list “compilers” are “even-handed” (cough).

mortimer says
There should be a congressional committee to explore FOR THEMSELVES whether or not these groups are really ‘hate groups’ or not.
By their own standards, the Democrat Party is guilty of being a hate group towards Pres. Trump and towards his supporters. They frequently call them names that are vicious and contemptuous. Does that not qualify as ‘hate speech’ too?
It appears the DEMS have DOUBLE STANDARDS on many topics. The DEMS believe ‘It isn’t ‘hate speech’ when *WE* do it.’ They believe they can hate and slander the president and his supporters all they want.
Vann Boseman says
Those leading the Democratic Party are completely willing to say virtually anything, no matter how contradictory, vicious, distorted, or contemptuous. Their hatred appears to be greatly pure to the point of delusion. Sadly and pathetically I could be wrong. Perhaps it is just a strategy to garner emotions that would lead to the votes from the ignorant and dim-witted. I think that some people do not care at all about current events but still vote. No matter the intelligence of this group, they just accept tid bits of headline news that they happen to be exposed to in a tertiary way while mostly focusing on other things. I have heard arguments for and against this sort of behavior, but it is certainly a bad thing when this group votes. There is the other group of dim-witted people who want to get stuff and consider politicians bad that are described by the media as being bad. For this group, “hate groups” really are hate groups and their ignorance can be dramatically invincible.
Here, we are preaching to the choir. Our reality is that we must engage and somehow convince the two groups mentioned above, especially by exposing the Democratic Party’s raw hatred for what it is. I am betting that people of at least average intelligence who are reasonably informed already completely understand what the Democratic Party of today is all about. When one talks of an average, one is talking about a statistic. Half of the population is above the average and half is below. There is a lot of opportunity I see if I only consider statistics because those with lower IQ are more likely to be conscientious. I can see how Democrat leaders mine that conscientiousness through distortion. In theory, all you have to do is shine a light in the darkness. But for me, in practice, I feel I have encountered mostly invincible ignorance. (I am not saying that only those with low intelligence are capable of invincible ignorance.)
Angemon says
“By their own standards, the Democrat Party is guilty of being a hate group towards Pres. Trump and towards his supporters.
I’m certain that, In their minds, they’re combating the “real” hate groups and making the world a better place.
““Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron’s cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.”

James Lincoln says
I wonder if this is a reaction to a letter from Sen. Tom Cotton’s (R-AR) to the IRS asking to investigate the tax-exempt status of leftist group Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC)…

Wellington says
The Democratic Party has become the SPLC on steroids, with indeed far, far more power. Dominated ever increasingly by Leftists it wishes to make a distinction between free speech and hate speech, which has already occurred where Leftist are most in control, i.e., college campuses. This fallacious distinction is inimical to free speech and will end it. And to enforce this distinction an extensive political police must be created (already well in progress in the American educational system). In short, we are quickly entering Orwellian times here in America and a chief reason (there are many) is that one of the two major political parties in this country has gone over to the dark side all the while thinking it is enlightened.
It most surely is not. Much more trouble ahead because of what has happened to this party. Count on it unless the Democratic Party implodes and becomes no more, a possibility however unlikely that I now very much want to occur. I am utterly disgusted with what has happened to the Democratic Party and anyone who values freedom, fair play and common sense should be too.
James Lincoln says
Wellington,
Find post, my compliments.
Here is a related opinion piece by Victor Davis Hanson that you may enjoy:

Wellington says
Thanks, James, for the link. I admire Victor Davis Hanson very much. He is an expert on antiquity, especially ancient warfare and agricultural aspects, his ancient Greek and Latin are superb, and his moral intelligence, accompanying his very high IQ, makes him formidable in the extreme to all those silly people on the Left, virtually all of whom take the lazy way out, as is the wont of Leftists, by dismissing him as a bigot, much as has been done to Robert Spencer.
God, how I despise the Left. Anyone with any appreciation of liberty and truth, a la Luther, can do no other.
Two of Hanson’s over twenty works I would recommend above all: 1) Carnage and Culture: Landmark Battles in the Rise of Western Power; and 2) his most recent work, The Case for Trump.
Take care, pal.

“The devil is angry, knowing he has a short period of time.”
Those people who show themselves to be haters of Truth, show they lust for deception, corruption, outright lying, and use every available weapon to destroy those who tell the Truth, are doing the devil’s work.
“Wicked men and impostors, advance from bad to worse; misleading and being mislead.”
And ultimately, they will lose. Both those who work the devil’s work, and the devil himself.
James Lincoln says
somehistory,
Reminds me of an episode from the original Twilight Zone series entitled “The Howling Man”…
somehistory says
We can learn a lot from the Twilight Zone. I remember the title of the one you reference, but I’m not sure I recall the details. There were several that satan was represented by a “man” offering something to a human in exchange for the human’s soul.
Thorne says
Max Bernier will be in the French and English speaking debates. I wonder if Justine will show up, the left loon little coward has been dodging any debate or criticism.
Canadians looking to save Canada will vote for Max Bernier, the ONLY politician who is against globalization, the Paris Accord and the Global Migration Pact. As a long time supporter of the Conservative Party, I will vote for Max, the ONLY conservative in the race.
