多名知情人士向哥伦比亚广播公司新闻透露，FBI已解雇至少五名参与撰写2023年一份已撤回的内部情报备忘录的分析师，该备忘录主题为“激进传统主义天主教”意识形态，曾引发特朗普总统盟友的愤怒。
MS Now此前已报道了这些分析师被解雇的消息。
FBI拒绝就解雇事件置评。
这份所谓的“里士满备忘录”由FBI里士满分局起草，探讨了族裔动机的暴力极端分子与激进天主教观点之间的关联。
该备忘录曾由前FBI局长克里斯·雷下令撤回，内部调查显示，撰写备忘录的人员并无恶意，但发现其未遵守恰当标准，且存在一些专业判断失误。
根据内部审查结果，FBI采取了一系列纠正措施，以加强情报产品的审批流程。涉事员工也受到了训诫。
司法部当时的监察长开展的另一项审查也未发现任何证据表明，有人下令或指示分析师去寻找极端暴力分子与特定宗教之间的关联。也没有证据显示分析师发表过任何歧视性或不当言论。
尽管如此，该备忘录引发的失误长期以来一直是特朗普先生的盟友关注的焦点，他们称这一事件证明了对持有保守价值观的基督徒存在偏见。
该备忘录被收录在今年早些时候发布的一份报告中，该报告来自“消除反基督教偏见特别工作组”，该工作组是根据特朗普先生的一项行政命令设立的。
该报告声称，FBI“对未从事任何犯罪行为的传统天主教徒进行了调查、监视、追踪和审查”。
报告还指责FBI里士满分局在分析中“不当依赖”了南方贫困法律中心的内容。
这家非营利组织目前正因另一项刑事指控面临诉讼，司法部指控其在支付线人渗透仇恨团体时，向捐赠者和银行撒谎。南方贫困法律中心否认有不当行为，并指控此次起诉是报复行为。
此次FBI解雇事件自去年以来持续发生，这是该局一系列解雇涉事员工事件的最新一例，这些员工参与的案件或其他事务均遭到特朗普政府反对。
FBI此前还解雇了所有参与针对特朗普先生两项刑事起诉的人员，这两项起诉分别涉及他保留机密文件以及试图推翻2020年总统选举结果。
司法部今年早些时候也解雇了几名参与FACE法案案件的检察官，这些案件的被告被指控妨碍他人获得生殖健康诊所服务。
FBI fires analysts who worked on “Richmond memo” about Catholic extremist ideology, sources say

The FBI has fired at least five analysts who were involved in the creation of a withdrawn internal 2023 intelligence memo on “Radical Traditionalist Catholic” ideology that drew the ire of President Trump’s allies, multiple sources familiar with the matter told CBS News.
The analysts’ firings were reported earlier by MS Now.
The FBI declined to comment on the firings.
The so-called “Richmond Memo,” which was a product of the FBI’s Richmond field office, explored links between ethnically motivated violent extremists and radical Catholic views.
An internal investigation of the memo, which was withdrawn under former FBI Director Chris Wray, determined there was no evidence of malicious intent by those who drafted it, but found that it failed to adhere to proper standards and contained some errors in professional judgment.
As a result of the internal review, the FBI instituted a number of corrective actions to bolster approval processes for intelligence products. The employees involved were also admonished.
A separate review by the Justice Department’s then-inspector general also did not find any evidence that anyone had ordered or directed the analysts to find linkages between violent extremists and certain religions. There was also no evidence to suggest that the analysts made any discriminatory or inappropriate comments.
Nevertheless, the missteps over the memo have long been a focal point for Mr. Trump’s allies, who have said it represents evidence of bias against Christians with conservative values.
The memo was featured in a report released earlier this year by the Task Force to Eradicate Anti-Christian Bias, which was created by one of Mr. Trump’s executive orders.
The FBI “investigated, monitored, tracked and scrutinized traditional Catholics who had engaged in no criminal misconduct,” the report claims.
The report also alleged that the FBI Richmond office showed a “misplaced reliance” on the Southern Poverty Law Center in its analysis.
That nonprofit now separately faces criminal charges over allegations by the Justice Department that it lied to donors and banks when it paid informants to infiltrate hate groups. The SPLC has denied wrongdoing and alleged the prosecution is vindictive.
The latest FBI firings, which have continued since last year, mark the latest in a string of removals of bureau employees who were involved in cases or other matters opposed by the Trump administration.
The FBI also earlier fired everyone involved in both criminal prosecutions of Mr. Trump over his retention of classified records and his efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election.
The Justice Department also earlier this year fired several prosecutors who worked on FACE Act cases involving defendants accused of hindering access to reproductive health clinics.
