So, you think it would have been a huge story regardless?
Yes. Why wouldn't it be?
All of those events with counter protestors were major, national news. Like the Cal Berkley riots months prior to C-ville.
C-ville was by no means the first event where leftists counter protestors caused mass violence and riots. It was pretty common and always a big deal by C-ville.

The magnitude of your lack of self awareness never ceases to amaze.
When it goes the other way?!?!?! WTF?!?! It's been going the other way, and ONLY The other way for decades now.
So maybe it's not right to fault you. I think it was T. Sowell who said "when you're so used to preferential treatment, equal treatment feels like discrimination."

When have DEM authorities engaged in a scheme to file flimsy indictments to freeze/seize GOP money in an election year to thwart the GOP ?

People are just being obtuse remembering that era.
We can at least partially agree on this comment.
"There were very fine people on both sides" comes to mind. Some people still parrot that bullshite to this day. "Obtuse" is a good way to describe those people.

Not surprised to see Some F.a.g Poster in here defending the SPLC.

Anybody that's been a fed employee or in the military is familiar with the Combined Federal Campaign where once a year federal employees are solicited to donate to a list of charities and non-profits.
The Southern Poverty Law Center was/is assigned CFC number 10352 and federal workers have had the option to donate for years.
So we live in an era where non-profits can solicit tax-deductable donations from federal employees at work so that they can fund the racism, hate and general chaos those same federal employees are charged with protecting us against.
2026 -- What a time to be alive baby!

I'm only giving analysis of what's been presented, if that's what you're implying.
Sure, you are.
It's a very one-sided analysis, as usual. And the reason you're doing that is because things like this eat at you. You try playing these things off, but they truly eat at you. Because deep down you know that at WORST, 90% of everything being said is true. That's a problem because all this grift is what funds all the political bullshite that you support.
Out of curiosity, of the hundreds, or maybe thousands of charges or allegations made against DJT, which any sane person knows were bullshite.... how many of them did you bend over backwards for and perform mental gymnastics to try to refute?

What the frick?
It's mostly to counter the abject dishonesty that flows from these stories.

The utterly dishonest ones, just the same.
I never said he raped kids, even when he was directly accused by an alleged victim.
I posted a great deal for years about how Russiagate was bullshite
I went to bat for him after his bad communications after Charlottesville
etc etc

Am I correct in assuming this is a RICO case?

There is but ONE single thing anyone remembers about Charlottesville, and that's the "very fine people" misquote.
That's it. That's the ONLT reason Charlottesville lasted more than ten min in the news.

What about that comment an giving topical reference points, was "Being a douchebag"?

So why all the dishonesty in claiming the SPLC organized it, if all you want to focus on is that? You think the SPLC knew Trump would not communicate well after the event, or something?

It was a huge national story BEFORE it even happened, which means before Trump's quotes after the fact.

He's not defending them, man. He has no dog on the fight and couldn't care less about SPLC. They're nothing to him.
He's only trying to educate you on the law. He doesn't want you to get your hopes too high that SPLC may be taken down. Amirite?!? lol

I don't like the SPLC
For a corollary, I hate racists, but I'd have argued in court for them to have the right to hold the Unite the Right rally, just like the ACLU did, and I'd educate anyone who I felt was being dishonest about describing the situation*
*ETA: I did just that on this board back in 2017, mind you.

I have no idea if they were legal or not.
If what's being alleged against SPLC was illegal, then yes, it would still be illegal even if the donors knew what they were donating towards. In fact, the donors may even be considered complicit if that were the case.
But that will never be proven. Likely won't even make an attempt to prove it....unless maybe if there's some political gain to be had depending on who the donors were. But that would be chickenshit, IMO. I hate political witch hunts. Even when they take down a Democrat.

The fraud allegations are based in....defrauding the donors.
The wire fraud charges:
"[The SPLC] devised and intended to devise a scheme and artifice to defraud donors....and to obtain money and property belonging to donors by materially false and fraudulent pretenses, representations, promises, and omissions"

It's not dishonesty. It certainly appears that they did organize it.
And there were no bad communications by Trump afterwards. None. There was, however, an egregious misquote. Or maybe we can call it a lie by omission, with the omission being the entire first half of a sentence and presenting it as a standalone statement. It was literally half of a sentence.

How?
It's not even clearly alleged the person snitching for them actively organized it. It only claims he was part of a group that did, but no specific allegation to him. No claims the SPLC organized it, either.

There was no reason to include that part. He should have just condemned the racists clearly and left it there. He should have done this loudly BEFORE the event, too, and didn't, for whatever reason (I have my theories).
Trump gave them the misquote when those words were not needed at all. That was his failure in communicating after the event. Did the media run with it? Yes. Did Trump have to give them that soundbite? No. It served no purpose and added no value to his comments.
