It now appears that an FBI probe into Catholics as domestic terrorists was wider than Director Chris Wray originally told Congress.

The House Judiciary Committee released an unredacted controversial FBI memo Wednesday. The memo posits “radical-traditionalist Catholic ideology” as a potential domestic threat.

The FBI director said that the memo came from a single field office back in July.

After that testimony, the FBI finally handed over the document to the committee. That document shows that field offices in Portland and Los Angeles provided data for the anti-Catholic memo.

Judiciary Chair Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) and Congressman Mike Johnson (R-La.), who chairs the subcommittee on limited government, are now pressing the FBI Director for additional answers. They told him it “raises additional concerns about the accuracy, completeness, and truthfulness of your testimony.”

Jordan and Johnson are asking to interview the special agent in charge of the Richmond field office as well as the person who approved the Richmond document.
