On April 26, Rep Jim Jordan from Ohio is calling out the Southern Poverty Law Center for fueling the hate behind the third assassination attempt on President Trump. He made these comments after the shooting tie to the White House correspondent's dinner, stressing that the group's actions can't be ignored. That same week, the Justice Department indicted the Southern Poverty Law Center for paying $3 million to informants.

Jordan highlights how the center branded conservative outfits like moms for liberty and the Family Research Council as extremists. For years, media treated them as the gold standard on hate, but now the truth's out. They were bankrolling the very problem. He's blunt, labeling it evil, and pointing to the wild timing with the Trump attack. While backing free speech and real debate, Jordan says left-wing rhetoric has crossed into dangerous territory that needs to end. This could spark some real change, like getting Democrats on board to fund Homeland Security
