‘[S]erious misuse of federal law enforcement resources.’
WASHINGTON, D.C. (LifeSiteNews) — U.S. House Judiciary Committee chairman Rep. Jim Jordan of Ohio, together with Rep. Mike Johnson of Louisiana, are demanding answers from the head of the FBI in relation to the agency’s leaked “anti-Catholic memo” that directed federal surveillance of so-called “radical-traditionalist Catholics.”
Last week, former FBI agent turned whistleblower Kyle Seraphin released an eight-page internal document sent January 23, indicating the FBI in Richmond, Virginia planned to conduct surveillance to intercept “racially or ethnically motivated violent extremists” who have allegedly found common ground with “radical-traditionalist Catholic (RTC) ideology,” LifeSiteNews reported.
The FBI backpedaled on the memo the day after the leak, saying the document had failed to meet its “exacting standards.”
Regardless of the retraction, the memo has sparked extensive backlash, earning the condemnation of Bishop Barry Knestout of Richmond, Virginia, Bishop Joseph Strickland of Tyler, Texas, the editors of two Catholic news outlets named in the memo, namely The Remnant’s Michael Matt and Catholic Family News’ Brian McCall, and the attorneys general of 19 states.
In a February 16 letter addressed to FBI Director Christopher Wray, Republican Reps. Jordan and Johnson said the federal agency must respond to the since-retracted memo, which they called a “serious misuse of federal law enforcement resources.”

It has been retracted from official comment but not from reality. Nothing in Government files is ever actually retracted or erased. My daughter’s false arrest which was “erased” by the system still turns up on simple searches by employers.
America becomes Rome and will outlaw faith in Christ and His teaching, thus assuring the eventual fall of the new Rome, for faith in Christ is a living thing. Faith in the Imperium is worship of Death and is a loser’s game.
Someone felt comfortable enough to write it and pass it along. Any group that has a lot of white males and generally lean right are going to get a lot of attention from the FBI.
“Interest of Racially or Ethnically Motivated Violent Extremists in Radical Traditionalist Catholic Ideology Almost Certainly Presents New Mitigation Opportunities”
Mitigation opportunities equate to salaries and benefits for many white male agents who could be allocated to any case involving Catholics. Part of this would be infiltration, which given the demographics would be easy to do for the vast majority of agents.
