SPLC INDICTED: $3M Trail Leads to Klansmen

Plus: Texas wins the 10 Commandments ruling at the 5th Circuit, Trump pauses the Iran strike at Pakistan's request, and retail sales blow past every economist forecast — all in today's episode.The Department of Justice just dropped an 11-count federal indictment on the Southern Poverty Law Center. Wire fraud. False statements to a federally insured bank. Conspiracy to commit money laundering. And according to the indictment, more than $3 million in donor money allegedly flowed toward the very kinds of extremist groups the SPLC built its brand denouncing. Grandma and Grandpa who wrote those annual checks deserve to know where it ended up. Chuck walks the whole paper trail.From there: the 5th Circuit's Texas 10 Commandments victory and what it actually means for the First Amendment. Retail sales surging 1.7% in March — up 4% year over year per the Commerce Department — while the legacy press keeps insisting you're living in a recession. Trump pausing the Iran strike at the request of Pakistan's leadership while, by his own statement, the blockade earns a billion dollars a day. Axios floating six anonymous sources on DeSantis, Hegseth, and a Supreme Court seat. A YouGov poll showing MAGA economic sentiment fully recovered to pre-war levels. And a certain MSNBC host suggesting Americans should "go to the mullahs" to decode our own president. Six stories for seven AM. Truth starts now.
