Over two years ago, the nation’s top law enforcement agency landed in hot water when a memo leaked detailing plans to infiltrate and illegally spy on certain Catholic parishes and classifying American Catholics devoted to the Tridentine Mass as “Radical-Traditionalist Catholics” and “Racially or Ethnically Motivated Violent Extremists.” The memo, drafted and approved by the FBI’s Richmond field office, caused outrage and initiated a series of congressional hearings, during which then-FBI director Christopher Wray attested, under oath, that the Richmond field office had acted alone in drafting the memo, which was never circulated or meant to be circulated to the FBI more broadly. Wray lied.
In at least one instance, an FBI agent actually went undercover and infiltrated a Catholic parish, and other agents interrogated sacristans and organists.
Senator Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) wrote that, contrary to Wray’s testimony, the anti-Catholic memo “had been widely distributed to FBI field offices across the country.” In fact, the memo reportedly reached at least 1,000 FBI employees in multiple field offices across the country.
Grassley noted that the Richmond memo served as the basis for a much broader-reaching second intelligence product being drafted when the initial memo was leaked. “Director Wray’s testimony was inaccurate not only because it failed to reveal the scope of the memo’s production and dissemination, but also because it failed to reveal the existence of a second, draft product on the same topic intended for external distribution to the whole FBI,” the senator wrote. He said that the second draft “was clearly a separate product, since it involved a different planned distribution to the whole Bureau, and a different chain of review, through the Counterterrorism Division.”

Paging Pam Bondi....
Sounds like a violation of the Federal Records Act.
Maybe it’s because the Roman Empire religion violates Romans 11:6.
20 years at Club Fed, and a ruinous $5 million fine.
Who?
So who’s getting promoted?
Charge him; bankrupt him.
There is no deleting anything. If they claim so, they are in on the crimes.
Either biden told the fbi to do it, or his staff did it for him. Either way, biden should have been impeached and publicly shamed.
“Paging Pam Bondi....”

Try reaching her at Fox.
“Christopher Wray Lied”. I have little doubt he did, but it always seemed like his ‘hair was perfect’.
Maybe you’re just another hateful anti-Catholic, like Wray.
You actually want the Federal government to persecute people who don’t agree with your soteriology? The Protestant Inquisition?
So what? Nobody will ever be held accountable.
You can’t possibly believe that’s the reason. The reason is, Catholicism is God’s one and only true religion. We wouldn’t sic the government on you for believing otherwise, by the way.
God and the saints will hold all accountable. Satan has a special place in Hell for such as Wray.
Go crawl back under your ignorant and bigoted anti-Catholic rock and tend to your own miserable soul.
Hear, hear!
