Joe Biden and his handlers have demonstrated a pathological disdain for traditional American values and traditions, along with a similar disdain for reality.  They despise the concepts of individual liberty, limited government, free market economics, and Judeo-Christian Religious values.  That is because they are radical leftists to the very core of their being.

Projection is one of the cornerstones of leftist ideology, and the Biden Regime epitomizes this.  They completely ignore the violence committed by the left’s shock troops, ANTIFA and Black Lives Matter.  They accuse the peaceful MAGA and Tea Party movements of  being violent threats to our democracy.

The Biden Regime has also demonstrated a pathological disdain for the Constitution of the United States, most particularly the First, Second, Fourth, amd Fifth Ammendments.

The scandal chronicled in this article exemplifies everything despicable about the Biden Regime: FBI Interviewed Priest, Choir Director in Investigation Targeting Catholics (breitbart.com)

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) allegedly interviewed a priest and a church choir director as part of its investigation into “radical traditionalist” Catholics, a House Weaponization Committee report obtained by Fox News Digital details.

In February, a now-retracted leaked memo from the FBI Richmond Field Office titled “Interest of Racially or Ethnically Motivated Violent Extremists in Radical-Traditionalist Catholic Ideology Almost Certainly Presents New Mitigation Opportunities,” showed the bureau was targeting Catholics, and had used information from the far-left Southern Poverty Law Center to guide the crafting of the memo. As Breitbart News reported, the memo showed the Richmond office had found that violent extremists’ “interest” in “radical-traditionalist Catholic” ideology was growing and that it therefore presented an opportunity for the FBI to engage with certain churches in an attempt to goad the churches’ leadership into serving as FBI “tripwires,” who would operate like unofficial informants to the FBI.

This loathsome behavior on the part of the FBI violates the Fourth Amendment and the Free Exercise of Religion clause of the First Amendment,

House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan (R-OH) revealed in August that multiple FBI field offices were allegedly involved in crafting the memo, which detailed plans to target “radical traditionalist” Catholics, despite FBI Director Christoper Wray’s testimony that it was a “product from a single field office.”

The House Judiciary Committee and the Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government have been investigating the FBI’s investigation of certain Catholics as potential domestic terrorists since the leak. The committee’s new report concludes that there was “no legitimate basis for the memorandum to insert federal law enforcement into Catholic houses of worship,” according to Fox News Digital. 

The report further accuses the FBI of “abus[ing] its counterterrorism tools to target Catholic Americans as potential domestic terrorists.”

If it wasn’t for The House Judiciary Committee and the Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government, would this scandal have come to light?

“The Committee and Select Subcommittee discovered that the FBI relied on at least one undercover agent to develop its assessment and the FBI even proposed developing sources among the Catholic clergy and church leadership,” the report states. “Not only did the FBI propose to develop sources, but it already interviewed a priest and choir director affiliated with a Catholic church in Richmond, Virginia for the memorandum.”

The committee said, citing whistleblower disclosures, that the FBI interviewed the priest and choir director affiliated with a Catholic church in Richmond, Virginia, to “inform on the parishioner under investigation.” The committee added that if the whistleblower had not come forward, the memo targeting Catholics would likely “still be operative in FBI systems, violating the religious liberties of millions of Catholic Americans,” according to the report. 

This despicable investigation is a clear violation of the Free Exercise of Religion clause of the First Amendment and the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment.  These traditional Catholics were targeted because they hold beliefs that are at odds with Progressive Orthodoxy.

The committee’s report points to documents obtained by the committee’s subpoena which allegedly show the agency “singled out Americans who are pro-life, pro-family, and support the biological basis for sex and gender distinction as potential domestic terrorists.”

“While the FBI claims it ‘does not categorize investigations as domestic terrorism based on the religious beliefs—to include Catholicism—of the subject involved,’ an FBI-wide memorandum originating from the FBI’s Richmond Field Office did just that,” the committee said, according to the report. “Under the guise of tackling the threat of domestic terrorism, the memorandum painted certain ‘radical-traditionalist Catholics’ (RTCs) as violent extremists and proposed opportunities for the FBI to infiltrate Catholic churches as a form of ‘threat mitigation.’”

Class Action 1991

There are three reasons why we should not be surprised at either the testimony of these “ladies” who are running elite colleges concerning calling for the genocide of Jews

or the sudden volte face when no longer under oath from Penn

and Harvard

Let’s take them in Order

1. Under Oath

You see when under oath you are in a position that there are sanctions for lying so as long as they were under oath they didn’t want to assert something that would have been provably false. Particularly with GOP representatives ready to call them out on it.

But once they were no longer under oath, they could make any assertion they wanted without fear of the law.

2. Support for Antifa & BLM

The second reason is less legalistic. At colleges all over the country we have seen people support and even join in on the looting and torching of American cities since 2018. We have seen such actions defended and even promoted by groups on campus with facility and administration giving very public support to such things.

Given those facts how could they credibly claim that such statements are violations the policies of their universities.

3. He Who Pays the Piper Calls the Tune:

The third reason is a bit more mercenary and can be summarized in one word: CASH:

Over 200 US universities including elite institutions Carnegie Mellon, Cornell, Harvard and Massachusetts Institute of Technology have been accused of raking in $13 billion in “undocumented contributions from foreign governments,” according to a new report.

A sizable portion of the funds were said to be donated from authoritarian regimes around the globe including Qatar, Saudi Arabia, China and the UAE, the report from the Network Contagion Research Institute (NCRI) claimed.

Furthermore consider this:

I’ll say this for these universities, when someone buys them they stay bought.

4. No Enemies on the Left

Finally let’s look at a simple reality.

If I walked onto the campus of Harvard, or MIT, or Penn or frankly almost any university in Massachusetts and sat down to pray my Rosary with a sign next to me that said:

  1. There are two genders
  2. Transgenderism is a form of mental illness
  3. Marriage is between a man and a woman

I would likely at best be escorted forcibly off campus and at worst surrounded and attacked by a raging mob of leftists with no consideration of my 1st Amendment rights. After all I’m a conservative Catholic who actually believes

But the reality is that those people who are screaming “From the River to the Sea” and calling for the death of Jews are reliable votes for Democrats and for all the failings of modern Universities they can do the Ghastly Tom Hagen Math:

Right now the left has the Gays and the Transgenders and the Hollywood elites & media in which they are overrepresented and they figure that’s the best things to have, but in America Islam is a thing of the future.  In 20 years the children of Muslims now being raised on the tenets of Sharia law in America will be old enough to vote and Democrats going to make sure they get those votes when the time come, not now but 10-20 years from now.

It’s only been seven years since I wrote those words but they are certainly coming true.

Frankly if they wanted to deflect the question all they would have had to say, is something like:

“While I and the university find such speech horrific as long as it’s just speech it’s not actionable under the Constitution. The first amendment doesn’t have an exception for ‘evil'”.

Alas for them, such a statement would be the source of many lawsuits for all those who have been cancelled, fired and harassed over the last few years for having mainstream conservative opinions.

The left never expels useful idiots until their usefulness is over.
