The specific financial figures ($500 million in 2017 to $750 million by 2023, raising $200 million annually) are not corroborated by multiple independent sources.

The claim alleges specific treatment by the Obama and Biden administrations regarding consulting law enforcement while ignoring other threats.

The claim asserts that 'Most media' treated the SPLC as trustworthy, referencing a specific 2012 event. The evidence provided includes general web search results about media and language usage, but none independently confirm the specific claim regarding the general media consensus or the alleged inspiration for an attempted mass shooting following a 2012 listing.
