The DOJ just indicted the SPLC for paying $270,000 to an individual who was part of the leadership group that planned the Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville.

The tiki torches. The "very fine people" narrative. The media coverage that was used to define an entire political movement as white supremacist.

One of the people involved in making that happen was on the SPLC's payroll, paid through shell companies and prepaid cards by an organization that raised hundreds of millions claiming to fight hate.

The DOJ says they weren't dismantling extremism. They were funding it.

Sounds like they are going after them for misleading donors. Paying off informants to get dirt on orgs you are trying to take down seems like a better use of money than most other activities the splc could be doing. This feels very much like a political witch hunt.
