Jim Jordan calls for more documents on FBI’s rescinded anti-Catholic memo
In a letter sent to Mr. Wray, the lawmakers said they have written to him “several times” in the past year about “startling” claims that the bureau is misusing domestic violent extremism resources for seemingly political reasons. The panel is continuing its probe of the FBI’s handling of DVE investigations.
“In this document, the FBI purported to distinguish what it called ‘traditional Catholics’ from the disfavored RTC adherents, who the FBI characterized as embracing ‘anti-Semitic, anti-immigrant, anti-LGBTQ, and white supremacist ideology,’” they wrote. “The FBI even identified certain public policy issues — such as immigration and life issues — that it believed would ‘catalyz[e]’ RTC adherents.”
The FBI acknowledged the bureau received the letter and would not comment further on it. However, the agency previously distanced itself from the memo, which was leaked last week. The FBI insisted it is “committed to sound analytic tradecraft and to investigating and preventing acts of violence and other crimes while upholding the constitutional rights of all Americans.”
“The fact that the FBI would blindly accept and regurgitate the SPLC’s spin is highly concerning and undercuts the FBI’s assertion that it is unbiased and politically neutral,” they said.
