Undercover agent to spy on “mainline Catholic parishes” suspected of engaging in “radicalization.”
The Justice Department has been busy expanding its warning signs for possible domestic extremism to include a wide array of predominantly conservative Americans — from concerned parents to social media commenters who use words like “based.”Perhaps the most alarming evidence of this trend came in the form of a memo leaked by a whistleblower that accused practicing Catholics of harboring “anti-Semitic, anti-immigrant, anti-LGBTQ and white supremacist” views.
Of course, President Joe Biden claims to be a Catholic, but his particular brand of religion is likely not the traditional belief system that has reportedly been targeted by the FBI.
Although Attorney General Merrick Garland tried to distance himself from the memo during a subsequent Senate Judiciary Committee hearing, the damage appeared to have already been done.
