“Do you have a problem with systemic bigotry against Catholics at the FBI?” Hawley also asked.

Wray flatly responded, “No.”

Weasel answer. Does he deny the existence of a problem or is he saying that he has no problem with the existence of systemic bigotry against Catholics at the FBI?

He would have to fire himself.

Wonder if Wray is getting any calls from Putin he could use someone like him.

I would have demanded he explain the answer.

The FBI memo urged agents to probe the supposed nexus between “racially or ethnically motivated violent extremists” and “radical-traditional Catholics,” citing the Southern Poverty Law Center and including a list of SPLC-designated “hate groups” for agents to target.

When Trump is elected to his third term. He should write a Presidential Order banning any use of SPLC publications by any Federal agency and that their website be blocked on all Federal government networks.

What I thought, that answer can be taken 2 diferent ways. Its a poorly worded question to give them such wiggle room.

The SPLC has also suggested that the Catholic Church itself holds a position on human sexuality that would qualify it as a “hate group.”

What he hasn’t admitted is that he gave them all raises.

No one has been fired because they were doing what they were told to do. Following FBI policy.

As overtly corrupt as the behavior is, one has to ask if the Director is even in control? Is the tail now wagging the dog?

Any or all of the other intelligence could be the same.

Of course he hasn’t fired anyone over that.

But I’d like to know how big the bonuses they were given.

If anyone wants to read the complete fbi memo, I guess the house judiciary republicans released the whole thing in pdf. I had never read an fbi memo concerning anything like this, it was pretty interesting and full of what I can only call “fbi speak.”

“Good heavens, director! This is one of the most outrageous targetings,” the senator added. “You have mobilized your division, the most powerful law enforcement division in the world, against traditionalist Catholics—whatever the heck that means—and you have just told us you have not fired a single person.”

The proper response would be, "Has anyone ever been able to fire a federal employee"?

It’s high time some of these political groups had some pressure put on them & I think most of the public might agree. The SPLC would certainly be one of those groups. Does anyone know of any good they have accomplished?

Obviously “NO” was not the response that Hawley wanted. Guess he has to more carefully analyze any questions he would ask Wray from here on out.

Ever since the Catholics took down the World Trade Center and blew up the Boston Marathon, I’ve been telling people they can’t be trusted. /s/s/s
