    The David Horowitz Freedom Center stated in a recent email that its ability to accept donations by credit card has been disabled by both Visa and Mastercard following a campaign by the SPLC to label the Freedom Center as a hate group. This situation comes shortly after Robert Spencer of Jihad Watch was forced off the funding platform Patreon following pressure from Mastercard.
    The Freedom Center is the next target of the SPLC, and they are using Mastercard and Visa again in their attempt to shut down conservative voices. In an email sent to supporters, Horowitz outlined how the SPLC had convinced Mastercard and Visa to block the Freedom Center from receiving payments and donations via credit card.

    The left are not fascists. They are fighting fascists. That's what I'm hearing.

    Horowitz is a Jewish name. Why are Visa and Mastercard banning Jews from using their services?

    The SPLC is an anti-semitic hate group, which also called Magid Nawaz and Hirsi Ali proponents of Hate Speech. SPLC is staffed with the dumbest, most incompetent fools of any such organization today, and survives only because of the reputation of its founder Morris Dees. I used to support this group back in the early 90's, until they became a circus of incompetent idiots.
