The Right Wing Media Universe is using this case manufactured by Kash Patel to spin it as Left Wing Terrorism.
Kash Patel and the Trump DOJ have been twisting the fact that the SPLC was trying to infiltrate White Supremacist Groups as an act of terrorism.
They are even using this stretch in logic for a hit piece on Jocelyn Benson here in Michigan who has tenuous ties to the SPLC. Local radio news network here in Lansing is run by a right wing nut that hosts the local morning show. So based on this bogus Trumped up case they are smearing the front-runner for Governor.
Good Catch AK 
It's always worth being aware of this game right wing media plays with manufacturing or propagating stories like this. Which also often filters into mainstream media.
