SPLC ‘Director of Intelligence’ Was Literally in Bed With Neo-Nazi She Paid Over $1 Million

Usually, when you say somebody is “in bed with the enemy,” you don’t mean it literally.

But then again, there are few organizations more evil in intent than the Southern Poverty Law Center, which has spent decades stoking hate and division in the United States, doing so for fun, profit, and power. 

Those of us who look more at actions than at words had long ago figured out that the SPLC was ideologically corrupt, but even the more cynical among us could not have predicted this:

Unbelievable.

Now that we know, though, it kinda makes sense. Neo-Nazis and the SPLC actually have very complementary goals: creating hate where none need exist, smiting their perceived enemies, and grasping for power and money. They may as well join forces, make a little money, and sleep with each other. 

A top Southern Poverty Law Center official is accused of helping funnel $1.2 million in donor money to an informant in the National Alliance white supremacist group — who was also allegedly her lover.

The Department of Justice filed a superseding indictment against the SPLC accusing it of funneling donor cash to hate groups they were then telling donors they were fighting.

One figure, referred to as “Employee-2” in the indictment is described as a “person who would become Director of the SPLC’s Intelligence Project.”

It also describes how “Employee-2” wrote an article based on material stolen from National Alliance headquarters in 2014 and then paid off an informant to take the blame for the robbery.

Based on the details in the June 2 superseding indictment, “Employee-2” is understood to be Heidi Beirich, a 58-year-old fascism expert who was the Director of Intelligence at the Alabama-based anti-extremism nonprofit between 2012 and 2019.

The indictment alleges Beirich was incredibly close to the informant known only as “F-9” who “infiltrated the neo-Nazi organization National Alliance.”

“[Beirich] was also in a romantic relationship with F-9. During this relationship, [Beirich] and F-9 shared a house and two bank accounts,” the indictment alleges.

One has to wonder whether this is what donors to the SPLC, who consist of three basic types, expected something quite so blatant. 

My guess? The business types paying what amounts to protection money will shrug, knowing that contributing to the SPLC is just a cost of doing business. The large individual donors will shrug, because they want the ugly results, and if it took paying off Nazis to get those results, their only complaint is that she was caught. 

It’s the small donors who might be surprised. They actually believed they were doing good. At least I hope so.

It’s really a rather impressive scheme. Heidi Beirich managed to pay a Nazi $1.2 million, benefit herself, save housing costs by living with him, get some nookie, and snuggle with him each night as they count the ill-gotten gains together. 

The SPLC, as we all know, partnered with the Federal Bureau of Investigation, which seems remarkably blind to all this, assuming that they cared. After all, the FBI agents who worked alongside the SPLC’s “Director of Intelligence” likely had much the same motives as she: smearing conservatives. 

It’s not like they didn’t know that the Family Research Council or TPUSA were not hate groups, so would it really shock you to find out that some of the FBI agents associated with the SPLC had a clue or two that things were not kosher? 

Don’t expect that to be a line of inquiry, though. It would be pretty embarrassing for the FBI, even under Kash Patel, to admit that they were aware the SPLC was defrauding everyone as they used the organization as a source. 

The SPLC is still used as a data source by all sorts of organizations despite all these revelations. Businesses refer to its “hate map” to determine which nonprofits qualify for matching funds for employees’ donations, and the SPLC remains influential with media companies, including social media, in determining who and what narratives get amplified. 

What’s really impressive about this scheme is that the white supremacist group that the informant was “spying” on was essentially defunct, with membership collapsing from about 1200 to 20. The SPLC helped revive it, feathering Beirich’s nest and helping pay for the vacation home she shared with her “informant.”

For years, we have been told that white supremacists are the largest domestic terror group, which hasn’t had the ring of truth for decades. Most of the hate crimes we hear about are hoaxes now, and apparently the hate groups themselves were built by Potemkin himself, in the guise of the SPLC. 

Even the famous ‘Unite the Right’ rally had SPLC fingerprints all over it. 

By now, you have to wonder what ISN’T a hoax.
