Sounds like a Frank thing.
He dies January 10, 2023...
And shortly after, on Jan 23, 2023, and FBI memo is written concerning allegations against traditional Catholics as being potential domestic terrorists:
Earlier this year (2023), a leaked FBI memo dated Jan. 23 revealed the agency’s Richmond, Virginia, field office was tasked with investigating the alleged threat of “white supremacy” among Catholics who attend Latin Mass. As The Federalist’s Evita Duffy-Alfonso previously reported, the memo said the Bureau “may potentially mitigate” the supposed “threat” of “Radical-Traditionalist Catholics” with “’tripwire and source development,’ which means further infiltration into Catholic communities using various kinds of informants.”
During his July 12 testimony before the House Judiciary Committee, Wray claimed the January (2023) memo was “a single product by a single field office.” According to a newly unredacted version of the document obtained by House Republicans, however, that statement doesn’t appear to be true.
After months of the FBI stonewalling Republicans’ oversight efforts, the new version of the memo given to the Judiciary Committee on July 25 purportedly shows that the agency’s Portland and Los Angeles field offices “were involved in or contributed to the creation of FBI’s assessment of traditional Catholics as potential domestic terrorists.”
January 2023 : () Less than a week before he died, Cardinal Pell wrote an article in the UK Spectator that is nothing less than a clarion call. The title of the article says it all: The Catholic Church Must Free Itself from this “Toxic Nightmare.”
“...From outside Australia, it’s probably quite difficult to have any knowledge of how hated George Pell was by a lot of progressives. I think it is probably fair to say, he was their big bogeyman from the mid 1990s onwards - when he first came to real public prominence, it was as Archbishop of Melbourne, and at that time, the big thing that upset the left was that he was very public in refusing to condone homosexuality. Left wing activists used to attend his Masses wearing rainbow sashes and he would not give them Communion - he blessed them but he said that he could not give them Communion in such a situation. This caused massive, massive outrage.
This was at about the same time, that the genuine scandal about child sex abuse by Catholic clergy was first gaining prominence here, and because he was already a public figure of hate by then, he became the target of a lot of hate about that - what the people expressing that hatred always failed to understand was part of the reason the scandals emerged at that time, was because George Pell stopped the coverups that had been routine in Melbourne, before he became Archbishop - his predecessor, Archbishop Sir Frank Little, had covered up a great deal, in common with many other senior clergy. Viewed objectively, Pell was one of the first senior Catholic clerics to move away from that approach - but that isn’t the popular narrative....—— FR’s Naturalman1975
