Senators Demand FBI Come Clean About Targeting Traditional Catholics | EWTN News Nightly

About this sermon

A group of senators is demanding that the Federal Bureau of Investigation come clean about its efforts to monitor traditional Catholics. Lawmakers are accusing the agency of deleting records, withholding details, and giving misleading information. Iowa Senator Charles Grassley is leading the charge. He and 15 other Republican senators recently wrote a letter to FBI Director Christopher Wray. They want an explanation why the bureau improperly deleted records related to the memo, impeded an internal review of the document, and misrepresented its origin in testimony to Congress. Wray's testimony last year included him saying, "The Richmond product which is a product by a single field office which as soon as I found out about it I was aghast and ordered it withdrawn and removed from the FBI systems." Now Senators wrote Wray stating, "We again call upon you to provide a full explanation of your testimony that the Richmond memo was 'a single product by a single field office.'" Based upon now-available information, both of those claims were misleading and withheld material information from Congress."
