- DOJ indicts Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) for alleged wire fraud and money laundering related to its past use of paid informants in extremist groups.
- SPLC's 'field sources' program, started in the 1980s and known publicly for decades, is criticized as manufacturing extremism despite claims of fighting white supremacy.
- Indictment includes forfeiture allegations that could target all donations to SPLC if convicted, raising concerns about political motivations behind the charges.
