Nice of "real reporters" James Queally and Matt Pearce to take SPLC at their word for it (because
the FBI no longer does), as opposed to, I don't know, doing some "real reporting." You know, maybe asking someone in leadership about that allegation, or asking themselves how a group largely comprised of current and former government employees, who take an oath to the Constitution and
exclude from membership any seeking the overthrow of the United States, can be "anti-government."
But then again, that wouldn't advance the narrative, would it?
