Former Agent: FBI Taught Agents Pro-Lifers Are More Dangerous Than Islamic Terrorists
By: Tristan Justice
April 05, 2024

The FBI trained personnel on countering extremism with material from the far-left Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), according to former special agent turned whistleblower Steve Friend.

In an interview with the Tennessee Informer last month, Friend recalled his experience at the FBI Academy in 2014: “We were shown a video that was produced by the Southern Poverty Law Center.” The film, Friend said, “ranked people who oppose abortion, pro-life activists, as a greater threat than Islamists.”

“I don’t know if they still show that,” Friend added, “but that’s what we were shown.”

The FBI still relies on SPLC material a decade later, leading a pair of top Republican senators to demand the agency sever ties with the leftist hate group that routinely smears right-of-center associations as “hate groups.” SPLC’s false “hate group” designations led to a domestic terrorist attack in 2012 on the offices of a pro-family organization. ...

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

2014, the Obama FBI. Biden's FBI probably teaches the same stupid falsehood.

The SPLC is the true terror-inspiring group, inspiring violent idiots to attack groups and people with whom the SPLC disagrees.
I am not and never have been a leftist.

If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

There's a reason why the SPLC is housed in a bomb-proof building...

“The SPLC is known for disseminating its ‘hate group’ list, which contains at least 1,225 organizations, to Democrat allies in Congress, Big Tech, and woke corporations on a regular basis,” The Federalist’s Jordan Boyd reported last fall. “The activist hub recently aided the Biden regime’s quest to target concerned parents by sullying a dozen grassroots groups, including Moms For Liberty, as ‘anti-government extremist groups’ in its 2022 ‘hate and extremism’ report.”

The FBI also cited the SPLC to target traditional Catholics with counterterrorism resources, according to former agent Kyle Seraphin.

WEAPONIZATION: The Democrat career staff of the DHS targeted every Republican citizen with calling them out by name. Just read this targeting memo - I’m sure you’ll find yourself on it.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.
The Feds have been using SPLC garbage to set their meters since before the Clinton Administration. Somehow they have been considered the 'go-to' experts on extremism, without adequate attention paid to their own particular political bias which seems to list to port...

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

When Will Trump Pardon the Pro-Life 10? UPDATE: Pardoned

https://hotair.com/ed-morrissey/2025/01/23/when-will-trump-pardon-the-pro-life-10-n3799103

Free the Ten ... and then make sure that future Attorneys General no longer have any authority to intervene in local law-enforcement business around clinics. Garland and Biden proved all too well that the federal government simply can't be trusted with that authority.

Update:  Ask and ye shall receive! Trump issued pardons to 23 pro-life activists just a few minutes ago:

The FACE Act needs to be gutted or repealed. Garland provided the two big reasons:

* Significantly disproportional sentences;

* Selective investigation and prosecution (Garland did not take the bombings of the Pregnancy Resource clinics seriously, because they are Pro-Life; regardless of the breadth of the FACE Act language, that breadth was a sham; Pro-Life people were the target of the FACE Act.
