FBI severs links with SPLC after Kirk tragedy
In a striking move, according to Fox News, FBI Director Kash Patel announced on Friday that the agency has officially ended all collaboration with the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), a nonprofit known for its controversial "hate map."This decision comes amid growing criticism of the SPLC's partisan leanings, especially following the tragic assassination of Turning Point USA (TPUSA) founder Charlie Kirk last month.
The SPLC, founded in 1971, initially focused on civil rights legal advocacy. Over the decades, it has become known for tracking extremist groups through its "hate map," which labels organizations it deems dangerous or hateful.
In recent years, critics have accused the SPLC of veering into partisan territory by targeting conservative and faith-based groups alongside recognized hate organizations. The inclusion of TPUSA on its list of extremist groups has drawn particular scrutiny.
As early as April, during the FBI's Anti-Christian Bias Panel, Patel made it clear that the agency would avoid relying on biased or agenda-driven information from external sources.
He specifically pointed to the SPLC as an organization the FBI would not partner with, saying the agency will "never rely on politicized or agenda-driven intelligence from outside groups and certainly not from the SPLC."
