US Representative Steve Scalise, The Family Research Council, Turning Point USA - all groups or individuals that the SPLC had added to its “racist organizations” list, which were all subsequently attacked within months of being added to the list by violent leftists.
In the case of Charlie Kirk - he was assassinated by a progressive identifying sniper just 12 weeks after being declared “a racist” by the SPLC. Sounds like the SPLC was providing targeting data for violent liberals to act on. I suspect this indictment is part of a larger strategy to get various individuals within the organization to flip and turn informants to avoid jail time for crimes associated with the funding of domestic terrorists, in exchange for further testimony revealing the group’s actual goals of identifying political enemies and encouraging violent extremists to target them. That’s the real reason for the indictments. |
Who attacked the Family Research Council? |
I am reading through the indictment. SPLC wasn’t “paying informants,” they were paying their people to be presidents and leaders of major hate orgs. This hinges on whether people who donated would be ok with their donations being used for that purpose, whether SPLC hid it from donors, and how the non-profit used their donor money. The government has to prove the case, but I personally think don’t think paying a person to be the president of a hate org is fighting hate. |

| SPLC lost credibility when they let Dees retire. |
I think they are anti-white and that the rule of law should apply to them. You lie about my beliefs, which you don't know, and seem to approve of SPLC evading the rule of law. |
No, the nonprofits are discrediting themselves. Giving money to the KKK is not a charitable activity, and SPLC lied to its donors about its purposes. This is simple. You ignore the lying to the donors part. |
| I’m a (now former) donor and I am very unhappy about the paying of informants. That’s not why I donated money. |
It's something to do with povvitty. This radical left group, the Southern Povvitty Policy Research Council, They were doing some terrible things. They're radical left. They're the radical left, And they're a disgrace. A complete disgrace. |
Meanwhile in reality, 501(c)(3) nonprofits can and do pay informants. There is no blanket prohibition. IRS rules explicitly allow 501(c)(3) organizations to pay "informers" or tipsters for information on criminal activity when it supports their charitable mission (e.g., alleviating burdens on government by fighting crime or extremism). |
