Just gonna say it
There is no way the Biden FBI was working so closely with the SPLC and didn't know about these paid informants staging hate crimes
That's how you know this was a federal cutout operation

Analysis Summary
The SPLC was indicted in April 2026 on fraud charges for improperly raising millions to pay informants infiltrating extremist groups — that part is real. But Posobiec inverts the narrative: he claims the FBI didn't know about this, when in fact the FBI publicly ended its relationship with SPLC in 2025 specifically because of concerns about how the organization operated. His core claim — that this was a 'federal cutout operation' — has no evidentiary basis. The post presents speculation as fact and mischaracterizes the agency's actual distance from SPLC's practices.
Claims Analysis (2)
“The Biden FBI was working so closely with the SPLC and didn't know about these paid informants staging hate crimes”
SPLC paid informants to infiltrate extremist groups — verified. But the post inverts who knew what: FBI ended relationship with SPLC in 2025 over defamation concerns, suggesting awareness of issues. 'Staging hate crimes' is unsubstantiated.
“This was a federal cutout operation”
No evidence SPLC acted as FBI cutout. Post conflates SPLC's informant program with FBI control. Indictment alleges SPLC defrauded donors — not that it was orchestrated by federal government.
