Well, that took long enough!
The FBI has officially ended its relationship with the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), which was founded as a civil rights group and over time morphed into a left-wing slander factory, made even more dangerous because government law enforcement agencies used it as a source for domestic terror threats.
Kash Patel said in a statement:
The Southern Poverty Law Center long ago abandoned civil rights work and turned into a partisan smear machine. Their so-called hate map has been used to defame mainstream Americans and even inspired violence. That disgraceful record makes them unfit for any FBI partnership.
The SPLC has a nasty habit of adding normal, mainstream Christians and conservatives to their infamous "hate map," which has led to actual violence on more than one occasion.
Let's review the SPLC's stellar record:
One of their lawyers was arrested for taking part in an Antifa terror attack against a police training facility:
The SPLC was one of the sources used to justify the FBI spying on traditional Catholics during the Biden administration:
They officially categorized Turning Point as a "hate group" just weeks before Charlie Kirk was assassinated:
There was also the time a normal Christian Conservative group called the Family Research Council was almost the victim of a mass shooting by a shooter who used the SPLC to find the group:
The mass shooter who shot Republicans at the Congressional Baseball Game had "liked" the SPLC on Facebook:
There was also the time they added Focus on the Family to their hate map alongside neo-nazis and the KKK:
Not even Moms for Liberty was safe:
And who can forget that time they tried to dox the staff and writers of Not the Bee?
The Babylon Bee really had these guys pegged years ago:
Let's hope the new leadership at the FBI continues to clean house. This is only the beginning.
