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.’”
