After our post on the Anti-Defamation League's begging for bailout money yesterday, It takes a lot of damned gall..., I saw that our 2nd favorite pundit, Mrs. Michelle Malkin has done a better job, with Chutzpah—ADL Wants A Federal Bailout. I may opine quite rightly on various topics, but I don't always spend the time to get all the details. I know what the deal is.
Still, Mrs. Malkin's article kicks Peak Stupidity's post's ass though, with a lot more Defamation of the ADL than we were able to come up with. Here's the intro on the yeo-idiots work that the ADL need a cash infusion for:
When I think of "essential" workers in America, the smear merchants of the Anti-Defamation League are at the bottom of the barrel. For decades, they've demonized conservatives and Christians as agents of "hate" and treated our very existence as incitements to violence. The ADL's manufactured outrage machine has broadened its target list to anyone remotely critical of Israel for any reason, President Donald Trump, Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents, "America First" college students, innocuous hand gestures, cartoon frogs and anyone who dares to think or write that "It's OK to be white."Here's more on how the hateful ADL screws over patriotic Americans with their style of Defamation, a style called "anti-hate":
Yes, the ADL prides itself on "monitor(ing) and report(ing) on the rhetoric of anti-immigration activists and their supporters... (who) have long promoted the notion of immigrants as bringing disease, crime and environmental problems into the United States." Instead of refuting the facts, they just point, sputter and smear. In 2009, during the swine flu outbreak traced to Mexico, I wrote on my blog that "the spread of contagious diseases from around the world into the U.S." was the "result of uncontrolled immigration." ADL swooped in with a raging condemnation of me and others who "demonize Mexicans and immigrants, blaming them for the spread of the virus."Umm, yes, they may have spread that virus. You don't have to be an ADL swine to understand this stuff. The nasty rhetoric out of the ADL, if it has any effect at all, is to silence those who may have called for a quicker implementation of measures to control the spread of this Kung Flu from China. Mum's the word, though ... gotta be PC, respiratory distress or no respiratory distress ...
Now, about the money, here's where Mrs. Malkin has some details I should have looked up yesterday:
According to its most recent financial statements, ADL and the ADL Foundation raked in nearly $80 million in operating revenues in 2018, with net assets worth more than $92 million. Fear-mongering is big businessWhat the hell kind of assets of a non-profit "charity" organization add up to $93 million?! I mean, you need some offices, telephones, maybe the occasional old-timey fax machine. Things must have REALLY gone up! (What have I been telling y'all?)

PS: I've read lots of iSteve posts on those guys. It sounds like new management might blow it all though, from last he wrote, mostly on rims and soul food ...

PS Have you looked at the $PLC 990 filings? They make the ADL look like pikers.
