[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Then why does it appear they were laundering the funds?[/b]

How effective were they in dismantling these organizations?  Paying someone who was arranging transportation to events does not seem like a good policy to dismantle the organization.

What did they do to help get rid of hate organizations?  
Name Turning Point as a hate group?  Seems to me that could be construed as making themselves a hate group.
Moms for Liberty?

Anyone they disagreed with was on that list.

This is a somewhat atypical money laundering case. Normally, criminals launder money to disguise that the funds were the proceeds of a crime. A typical example: your friendly neighborhood drug dealer launders his money through a restaurant so he can actually make use of the proceeds of his drug dealing business.

In this case, DOJ is alleging that the SPLC laundered money to [i]facilitate[/i] the fraud. The government's theory appears to be that the SPLC laundered donor funds by disguising the payments it made to the extremists and it did this because it couldn't let the donors know where the funds were really going.

The obvious counterargument is that SPLC has to conceal the payments to informants because the whole point of an informant is that...you know, the informant's status as an informant is not known to the organization that they're informing on. If everyone knows that the SPLC is paying Mr. Neo Nazi, he's going to end up face down in a body of water somewhere and won't have much value as an informant. [/quote]

Do you want to be their new president and CEO?

They're advertising the job opening with a $500,000 starting salary today.[/quote]

I don’t understand that response. I actually have very mixed feelings about the indictment. I’m not advocating for a position here, I’m just trying to share my experience as a former AUSA and explain the arguments that both sides will likely make.[/quote]

Oh don’t worry about that hyper partisan PP. Us normies understand what you are saying. The far left and MAGA here are both insane and you have to weed them out. [/quote]
