about how Clinton "hates Catholics", probably. He's telegraphed what he believes his campaign's "devastating" punches are going to be, before. Because they brief him, and he's pretty stupid and cocky and big mouthed, like li'l bush.

Maddow just covered the NY FBI field office's breitbart fans, pushing for an investigation of Sec. Clinton, based on some stupid Peter Schweizer tabloid syle "expose" book. Hedge fund billionaire Robert Mercer is the biggest funder of dRumpf, he funds the "Keep the Promise" super pac and is breitbart's biggest funder. The leaders (Bannon, Conaway, Bossie) of those two orgs all are top people inside the dRumpf campaign, now. Bannon and Conaway are also members of the Council for National Policy:

Mercer funds the Government Accountability Institute, run by Bannon and Peter Schweizer, Schweizer is also a Breitbart senior editor. The question is whether Robert Mercer is Opus Dei.

I've been pointing out Opus Dei as bad guys on this site for years, because I'm a catholic and hate nazi cultists. Your info on a specific sub grouping of cultist Feds is new to me, and interesting. I can't add any new info on that section of Fed cultists, though.

Some people don't know Opus Dei at all, or think its adherents are like that self flagellating albino guy that chased mullet-hairdoo-ed Tom Hanks around in that stupid Dan Brown movie. Easy to spot, don't blend in well in crowds. But if they're wearing a suit and flashing an FBI badge, Justice needs to clean house pronto. OPR investigations, firings, and jailings need to take place.

Clarence Thomas went to a Jesuit run institution for his Bachelors, I went there too, much later. I think he got his nickname "Slappy" there. There were 2 opposing factions there, extreme righties and Liberation Theologists. It's not too hard to guess which side Slappy has always been on, but reports about his Opus Dei involvment say that Scalia personally mediated Thomas's conversion to Catholicism after Thomas got confirmed to the Supreme Court. Decades later. Bullhockey.

In the '80's, the American Bishops stood against the extreme right wing push coming from JP II and Ratzinger, his Doctrine Office (the Inquisition's modern incarnation) enforcer. After decades of Ratzinger and JP II rule, those US Bishops who'd come from Vatican II have been gradually replaced by crazy right wingers. Just like the magic those 2 popes worked on the US bishops, they targeted and eliminated Jesuit leaders and put their own people in. They replaced General Kolvenbach, the head of the order, with General Nicholas. They got rid of the head of the Jesuit newspaper, Father Tom Reese, and elevated John Foster Dulles' son, Avery Dulles, SJ, to the rank of Cardinal. When Ratzinger became Pope, he issued a very public slapdown to Latin American Lib Theologians in the church, green lighting anything certain other elements in the church might want to do to them.

Without the investigations by the FBI, Justice Dept., and DEA, a lot of aspects of the CIA's arms-drugs-terrorist funding in Iran Contra would have gone un abated, so the "good and bad" lines between the FBI and CIA aren't so clearly drawn. There are good factions and bad ones in both of them, the good one in the CIA was ridiculously ineffective at dealing with the Allen Dulles end.

Hoover had people helping him run things, a bizarre little hard core at the top of his junta, of blackmailably gay people, like Clyde Tolson and Cartha DeLoach. Apparently, his outfit was run along the same lines as the World Wrestling Federation. (Funny to see Hulk Hogan backing dRumpf.)

There were plenty of terrible anti-Democracy things Hoover and his tightly controlled Bureau did. But Hoover died in 5/72, Truman in 12/72, and Johnson in 1/73. They were all old men, and sometimes old men die, but when the mob is discussing whether or not to allow a hit on a top organized crime leader, the other leaders say "sometimes it's better if old men die." All 3 of those old men were leaders who were opposed to the bush-Nixon-Dulles crowd.

Hoover had been worried that the CIA would take over the FBI, but when he died Patrick Gray from Naval Intel took over the Feds.
