TL;DR

The Department of Justice has indicted the Southern Poverty Law Center on 11 counts—wire fraud, bank fraud, and money laundering—alleging it secretly funded eight individuals tied to white-supremacist groups with at least $3 million between 2014 and 2023, contradicting its mission to combat extremism; the SPLC denies the charges and says it will vigorously defend itself.
