New revelations of FBI efforts to infiltrate Catholic Church provoke storm of protest
Just the News ^ | 4/15/23 | Nick Givas

Revelations this week of FBI efforts to develop intelligence sources inside the Catholic Church elicited howls of protest — from Capitol Hill, the Church and an FBI whistleblower.

Amid the latest revelations of political bias and retaliation by the FBI, Arizona Republican Rep. Andy Biggs is calling for the increasingly polarizing law enforcement agency to be purged of politicized personnel and possibly defunded.

"I think if I could still be shocked — after having been in Congress for a while — this was one of the most shocking things that I've seen," Biggs told the John Solomon Reports podcast on Wednesday. "When you start finding out that they were trying to actually move into infiltrate, etc., you go, 'What is their purpose?' Do they think that if you're an orthodox, believing and practicing Catholic, somehow that's anti-American?"

The House needs to initiate impeachment proceedings against every Biden cabinet member and appointee, but especially Garland and Mayorkas. Yes, they will not be convicted or removed, but the information regarding their malfeasance will at least be on the Congressional record.

FBI: “How can we become an ENEMY of our people today.”

They hate us.. and they’re on a roll.

McCarthy should announce publicly that DHS will not be funded until Mayorkas, Ray, and their entire Senior staffs resign, along with every single employee who was involved in this.

Not one nickel. Let the Dems howl.

Eliminate the FBI. FIRE all employees. Roll federal law enforcement into the U.S. Marshall’s service and start fresh from there.

The FIB has become a VERY dangerous organized crime agency.

I think we’d all be surprised by how rife conservative sites like FR are with them.

The new FBI building is going to be twice the size of the Pentagon.

Oh this place is lousy with low-life quislings... that's certian.

Hopefully God rewards their efforts with a nasty pox their homes and families.

First thing to do, which should be relatively easy: disarm the FBI.

Simply declare - they may not have weapons of any kind.

If they want to conduct a raid, they must coordinate with local law enforcement, US Marshalls or other agency. It would emasculate them and send a clear message things are different, while maintaining their investigative capacity.

Other reforms of the agency could continue as needed.

If we had a Republican President, he could do it by simple executive order.

Where was the FBI when the priests were molesting all of those boys? But favoring the Mass in Latin, there’s a threat to national security.

And you'll keep being shocked even up to the point you are rounded up and imprisoned as you watch your Democrat replacement take your seat. That's the problem….99% of the politicians in this Country fail to acknowledge what the rest of us know is happening.

“Conservatives” 2023: how dare they infiltrate the Catholic Church.

“Conservatives” 2001: get the FBI into all the Mosques NOW.

Yes, there is a chasm between terrorists and regular God-fearing people. But this is what happens when you empower - nay, cheer on - Leviathan to cross the Rubicon.

Yes, this is unacceptable in the United States. It might be acceptable in China or Iran, but not here.

There is no fixing the FBI. It is too far gone and diseased from the core. As for the Catholic Church,I weep for what has been left to fester since this pope came to power. He is a demon and spews no less than satanic evil as he goes about his destruction of the Catholics who are true believers. I have said often that if your name is anywhere on any church membership list that you are in harm’s way. Prepare to be rounded up and eliminated by the satanic left. It’s the biggest and most important part of a master plan that is so evil that we cannot even comprehend how far it is destined to go. Pray for God to snatch His church away soon and live each day as if it will happen at any moment. Because it will. Seek Him while He may yet be found. Time is almost up.
