The SPLC is facing criminal money laundering charges for laundering money to “extremist right wing groups”.
Five these are obvious enemy shill groups: Ku Klux Klan, National Socialist Party of America (American Nazi Party)nAryan Nations, National Alliance, and American front. Enemies of the actual right, tools of the woke left.
They also funded the Sadistic Souls Motorcycle Club. I have no idea whether they are an enemy shill group against the motorcycle clubs, but if they are being funded by SPLC, probably. I bet you will find that few of them have ever ridden a motorcycle and that it has lots of morbidly obese trannies and childless women who have hit the wall, but have no data on the topic, just guessing. The left hates the motorcycle clubs, and all distinctively male activities, for toxic masculinity and want to fix them the way they wanted to fix Star Trek fandom.
They funded individual leadership members of Unite the Right, which was not a shill organisation, but had terrible security against enemy entryists and notoriously was full of them. Unity is a bad idea when you are under attack by enemy entryists. What you need is an inquisition, not unity.
The SPLC defense is that they were funding entryists to spy on their enemies. But these guys are not spying. They are the faces of these organisations, the SPLC is presumably the primary funder because no one on the actual right is likely to give them money, and the SPLC is funding these organisations’ activities, which only exist through enemy funding.
