Justice Department “Weaponization” report falsely accuses FBI of anti-Catholic bias

  • The FBI linked traditionalist Catholic beliefs to violent extremism in a 2023 internal memo despite limited evidence, based on an investigation involving a violent individual attending a Society of St. Pius X chapel.
  • The memo remained accessible within the FBI and was still being revised weeks after a deletion order, indicating failures in agency oversight.
  • The Department of Justice condemned the memo as a grave failure and took actions including firing some employees involved, while pledging to uphold First Amendment rights and religious freedom.
  • A Justice Department report called the targeting of conservative and religious beliefs an abuse of power and stressed the need for transparent oversight to prevent future misuse of investigative authority.
