PROFILE OF A SOCIOPATH GAMER LAWYER:
JOE BIDEN is known as a serial liar, a "public servant" who has somehow managed to accrue tremendous wealth, a race-baiting opportunist, a Catholic-in-name-only, and a bought-and-paid-for politician in bed with criminal cartels and foreign foes. In another era, Joe Biden would have been run out of his country much the same way Benedict Arnold was two and a half centuries ago; in an era when integrity, honor, fortitude, fidelity, and grit have been jettisoned for immorality, unscrupulousness, weakness, betrayal, and craven pliability, however, he is elevated to king sleazeball in a city drowning in sleaze.

Sen. Hawley: FBI is 'Infiltrating Churches' and 'Trying to Spy on Americans'
Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) said that the FBI is "infiltrating churches" in America and "trying to spy on us." He added that the law enforcement agency, headed by Director Christopher Wray, apparently views "church-going Americans as akin to terrorists."
During an interview on Hannity, April 11, host Sean Hannity asked Hawley if he believed that Attorney General Merrick Garland had lied to him about FBI informants in churches when he testified before the Senate on March 1.
Senator Hawley replied, "Sure looks like it, Sean. Sure looks like it."
"Listen, he knew at the time that he couldn't answer the question because it looks so bad," said Hawley. "He knew that it looked beyond the pale and it is beyond the pale, Sean, for the FBI to be going into any church in America and trying to spy on Americans, and now we know that's exactly what they were doing."
"They are infiltrating churches," siad the senator. "They are trying to spy on us. They regard churches apparently as the enemy and church-going Americans as akin to terrorists."
Hawley continued, "And, yes, the attorney general sat right there and told me, no, we don't do that, and now we know they do in fact target churches, and they have been. There's got to be accountability for this, Sean. He's got to be called on the carpet, the House needs to call him, the Senate should call him, too. But the Democrats will never do it."
"There's got to be some accountability and the targeting of Christians and churches has got to end," added Hawley.
Hannity then read from an April 10 letter sent by House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) to FBI Director Christopher Wray. In that letter, Jordan discusses an FBI memo about infiltrating certain traditional Catholic churches and cultivating sources. The letter also noted that the committee has sent a subpoena to Wray to release documents on its church-monitoring operation.
Commenting on the letter, Hawley said, "Well, number one, yeah, it looks like they were involved in recruitment. Look, all I know is what the House Judiciary Committee turned up, which is actual evidence that the FBI did go, Sean, and cultivate -- I think they called it undercover sources at these Catholic parishes, that they stood up a program to try to get into these Catholic Churches."
"And, Sean, you and I both know, if they're doing it in Catholic Churches, they're doing it in other Christian churches," said Hawley. "They're probably doing it in Orthodox communities. It's all over."
He continued, "This is a policy on their part, and we've seen it before, Sean, we've seen them use SWAT teams against pro-life Catholics. We have seen them go after parents who dare to question what they're doing in schools."
"This is a pattern and practice of this administration to use law enforcement against anybody who questions them and especially to use it against people of faith," said the senator.
On Feb. 8, an FBI memo from the Richmond, Va., field office was leaked to the public.
The memo explains how the FBI is assessing an alleged increase in the association of "racially or ethnically motivated violent extremists (RMVEs) in Radical-Traditionalist Catholic (RTC) ideology."
The memo includes a list of Catholic organizations that were tagged as "hate groups" by the left-wing Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC). Some of the so-called "hate groups" include listed include Catholic Family News, Culture Wars/Fidelity Press, The Fatima Crusader/International Fatima Rosary Crusade, The Remnant newspaper, and Slaves of the Immaculate Heart of Mary.
Apparently, none of these organizations has a history of violent extremism or of promoting violence.
In a Feb. 10 letter to FBI Director Christopher Wray and Attorney General Merrick Garland, 20 state attorneys general criticize the FBI memo on First Amendment/religious freedom grounds and note that the SPLC "has been utterly discredited as a reliable source."
"This country was founded on the right of all people to worship in the church, mosque, or synagogue of their choice, free from government interference," state the attorneys general. "Countless millions were drawn to our country because of that very right. Indeed, some of our first States were founded as safe havens for religious dissenters. There is no right more sacred to American democracy than the right to worship freely."
"We are horrified to learn that at least one field office of the FBI apparently does not agree with this proposition," said the attorneys general. "Anti-Catholic bigotry appears to be festering in the FBI, and the Bureau is treating Catholics as potential terrorists because of their beliefs."
Although the FBI memo clearly targets Catholic organizations and apparently Catholic churches, it is not yet known if the FBI is also monitoring or infiltrating synagogues, mosques, and Protestant Christian churches.
The First Amendment states, "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."
Under the Constitution, the federral government cannot prohibit the free exercise of religion.
Catholic Biden Hits Priests With Cease and Desist Order
When Freedom of Religion died.
Catholic priests who minister at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center were issued a “cease and desist order” just before Holy Week.
I warned you that a day was fast-approaching when people who follow the teachings of Jesus Christ would be shunned from the public marketplace. That’s why I wrote “Culture Jihad: How to Stop the Left From Killing a Nation.”
In a statement on Saturday, Walter Reed said the center is a “welcoming and healing environment that honors and supports a full range of religious, spiritual, and cultural needs.”
The Holy Name College Friary had been providing priests to the hospital for nearly two decades, according to the Catholic Archdiocese for the Military Services.
“It is incomprehensible that essential pastoral care is taken away from the sick and the aged when it was so readily available,” Archbishop Timothy Broglio said in a statement. “This is a classic case where the adage ‘if it is not broken, do not fix it’ applies.”
The White House needs to explain why a Catholic president would banish Catholic priests from a military hospital just before Holy Week.
“Especially, during Holy Week, the lack of adequate Catholic pastoral care causes untold and irreparable harm to Catholics who are hospitalized and therefore a captive population whose religious rights the government has a constitutional duty to provide for and protect,” the diocese said.
The medical center is reportedly going to replace the priests with a government-approved, for-profit contractor to provide Catholic ministry. In other words, don’t be surprised if Ray Epps or his cronies at the FBI are sporting clerical collars and hearing your confessions.
“The refusal to provide adequate pastoral care while awarding a contract for Catholic ministry to a for-profit company that has no way of providing Catholic priests to the medical center is a glaring violation of service members’ and veterans’ Right to the Free Exercise of Religion,” the archdiocese said.
Rep. Mary Miller (R-IL) condemned the Biden administration’s decision.
“Priests and pastors guided our troops through the darkest days of our toughest battles,” she wrote on Twitter. “The Biden Admin chose Easter weekend to kick Catholic priests out of Walter Reed, violating their First Amendment right to free exercise of religion. The House will not allow this to stand.”
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene slammed the administration, calling the decision “embarrassing and wrong.”
“This is another attack on the church, and this time, directed at our military,” Greene wrote on Twitter.
I’m a Baptist and I’m proud to stand alongside Catholic patriots as they are being targeted.
It’s imperative for every freedom-loving person of faith in America to rise up and condemn this blatant anti-Catholic bigotry.
And I hope you will remember on Election Day that Catholic President Joe Biden denied hospitalized military veterans access to Catholic priests during Holy Week.

House Judiciary Subpoenas Records on FBI Infiltration of Catholic Churches
Text Audio00:0000:00Font Size
House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan (R-Ohio). (Getty Images)(CNSNews.com) -- Because FBI Director Christopher Wray has essentially ignored several requests by the House Judiciary Committee for documents about the agency's reported surveillance and infiltration of Catholic parishes to uncover "radicalization" among parishioners, Committee Chairman Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) issued a supoena to the FBI on April 10 for specific records and information.
In a letter to Wray, Jordan explained that his committe is "conducting oversight of the Federal Bureau of Investigation's (FB) handling of domestic violent extremism investigations against Catholic Americans and its effect on protected First Amendment activity."
Based on "limited information" provided to the committee by the FBI, said Jordan, it is clear now that the agency "proposed that its agents engage in outreach to Catholic parishes to develop sources among the clergy and church leadership to inform on Americans practicing their faith."
FBI Director Christopher Wray. (Getty Images)"This shocking information reinforces our need for all responsive documents, and the committee is issuing a subpoena to you to compel your full cooperation," wrote Jordan.
The committee notes on its website that it officialy requested information from the FBI about a document generated in its Richmond, Va., office in January about potential connections between "violent extremists" and "radical-traitionalist Catholic ideology."
The FBI ignored a Feb. 16 request from the committee about the memo, and then produced "a substandard and partial response" to a March 23 request, which was riddled with redactions. This prevented the committee "from fully assessing the content and context of the documents and obtaining information requested from the Bureau."
In the January 2023 document out of Richmond, under "Opportunities," the FBI wrote, “In addition to [redaction], engage in outreach to the leadership of other [Society of Saint Pius X] chapels in the FBI Richmond [area of responsibility] to sensitize these congregations to the warning signs of radicalization and to enlist their assistance to serve as suspicious activity tripwires.”

In addition to the Society, the FBI plan included outreach to so-called "mainline Catholic parishes" and the local "diocesan leadership," reported the House committee.
"The [January] document itself shows that its contents, including its proposal to develop sources in Catholic churches, were reviewed and approved by two senior intelligence analysts and even the local Chief Division Counsel," said the committee. "Whistleblowers have advised that the FBI distributed this document to field offices across the country."
The January memo reveals that FBI claims of "numerous" and "rigorous" policies to protect the First Amendment rights of Chirstian worshipers are dubious, said Jordan in his April 10 letter to Wray.

Jim Jordan Subpoenas FBI Dir. Wray Over Memo Comparing 'Radical-Traditionalist Catholics' to 'White Nationalists'
Text Audio00:0000:00Font SizeJudging by some of the information that comes out concerning our “intelligence” agencies, one would be remiss not to wonder who those agencies are serving — the American people or themselves.
As a result of such distrust in the aforementioned agencies, specifically the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), House Judiciary Chairman Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) has subpoenaed that agency’s director, Christopher Wray.
According to The Hill:
The memo, a product of the Richmond, Va., FBI field office, discussed meeting with church leaders to review “the warning signs of radicalization and to enlist their assistance to serve as suspicious activity tripwires.”
The memo has become the basis for GOP lawmakers accusing the department of developing an anti-Catholic bias in the wake of last year’s Supreme Court decision overturning Roe v. Wade that spurred threats at both churches and abortion clinics.
The FBI memo detailed growing overlap between white nationalist groups and “Radical-Traditionalist Catholics,” which it identifies as a small minority within the church.
Basically, President Joe Biden’s regime seems to continue to target white Americans concerned about the direction said regime is taking the country in that they are still conflating those Americans with domestic terrorists.

I suppose if I was drunk with power I might try to mislabel my political counterparts to the point that people begin getting violent with each other on the government’s behalf.
“Americans attend church to worship and congregate for their spiritual and personal betterment,” Jordan said. “They must be free to exercise their fundamental First Amendment rights without worrying that the FBI may have planted so-called ‘tripwire’ sources or other informants in their houses of worship.”
Christians in particular are feared by the establishment government for the mere fact that people who hold strong religious beliefs recognize God as God rather than looking to the state for their salvation.
To their credit, the FBI does a really good job of using their power and clearances to “allegedly” do the dirty work of a “possibly” corrupt government. Criminals are victims. Victims are criminals. Christianity is evil. And, evil is righteous.
It’s not exactly clear what should be done about our out of control government, but karma is something that may rear its ugly or beautiful face — depending on how you look at it — and carry out justice that no one else can provide.
