DOJ Report Finds FBI Memo Targeting Catholics Had "No Malicious Intent" | EWTN News Nightly

About this sermon

Lawmakers on Capitol Hill are reacting to the Department of Justice report that finds there was "no malicious intent" behind the FBI memo targeting Traditional Catholics. The 10 page report released late last week said in part, FBI "Analysts 1 and 2 denied targeting any individual for holding or practicing a specific religious faith. Analyst 1 called any suggestion that he was motivated by anti-Catholic bias 'blatantly false'." But lawmakers and others say they still have questions about the memo. Iowa Senator Chuck Grassley says the FBI director has failed to explain why he described the memo as a "single product" when there were actually 2 memos, one to the Richmond office and one that was set to be released nationwide. Senator Grassley also says the FBI deleted files associated with this case. FBI agent turned whistleblower and host of the Kyle Seraphin Show, Kyle Seraphin, joins to share his thoughts on the DOJ report on the FBI memo targeting Traditional Catholics and whether it put this issue to rest. Seraphin discusses whether there is any way to retrieve the numerous files the senator says were deleted and whether it is unusual for such files to be deleted. He explains whether the DOJ report indicated whether other agents or field offices were probing Traditional Catholics. ------------ EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
