The SPLC wrote in a statement:.
“Moms for Liberty activities make it clear that the group’s primary goals are to fuel right-wing hysteria and to make the world a less comfortable or safe place for certain students–primarily those who are Black, LGBTQ or who come from LGBTQ families.”

On their Twitter page, Moms for Liberty quickly reacted to the formal designation with calls for fundraising off the news.
Curiously however, less than 2 hours of reminding everyone of their Joyful Warrior status, and on the same day they are designated as a National Extremist Group, co-founder Tiffany Justice calls for violence. Although the group is called “Moms” for Liberty, they do not limit their membership to just mothers. As Tiffany points out in the below tweet, “where are the dads?” She says that the dads “aren’t interested in having conversations like the Moms were.” Sharing a video of a violent brawl outside of a School Board meeting in Glendale, CA of reportedly Armenian-American men fighting pro-LGBTQ protestors and police, she say “Dad energy is often necessary and very effective.” Armenia is a middle-eastern country that borders Iran and Turkey, and well known for its anti-LGBTQ beliefs.
