The FBI’s persecution of ordinary Americans has taken another, darker turn. On August 9th, House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan (R-OH) and Subcommittee on the Constitution and Limited Government Chairman Mike Johnson (R-LA) released information demonstrating that the FBI’s Richmond Field Office coordinated with several field offices to produce a memorandum naming mainstream Catholics as “domestic terrorists.” The FBI had, earlier this year, been forced to retract the original memo. The original memo is available for viewing here. The House Judiciary GOP has released the letter they sent Director Wray seeking more information.
FBI Director Christopher Wray had previously testified that the action had been taken by a single office, not multiple offices.
Testifying before the committee in July, Wray called the document “appalling” and noted it was limited to the Richmond office and had been retracted. He also said an investigation into the creation of the document was still ongoing.
It was “a single product by a single field office, which as soon as I found out about it I was aghast and ordered it withdrawn and removed from FBI systems,” Wray testified.
