Marc Morial Calls Southern Poverty Law Center Indictment ‘Nakedly Political’

MORIAL: “The indictment is nakedly political, and it's the Justice Department turning on itself. For years, federal law enforcement worked with the Southern Poverty Law Center to ferret out hate groups and domestic terrorist groups. And recently, the Justice Department canceled its relationship with the Southern Poverty Law Center. So the government has been intimately involved in what the Southern Poverty Law Center has done, which has been an important public service, and that is to ferret out these hate groups, these domestic terrorist groups, these anti-Semitic groups. And this Justice Department, once again, is furthering this pattern and practice of an assault on civil rights through frivolous, politically motivated indictments. Think of Comey. Think of the attorney general in New York. Think of these. This is a continuation, indeed, of that pattern.”
