Developments & Reactions
This post continues our coverage of the ongoing ecclesiastical Chernobyl unleashed by the accusations of the former Vatican nuncio to the United States, “Abp.” Carlo Viganò, which were first published on Aug. 25 and have the potential not only to bring an end to the Francis “pontificate” but even to throw the entire Vatican II Sect into unprecedented chaos:
Friday, Sep. 7, 2018 Developments
A 2006 letter from then-“Abp.” Leonardo Sandri in the Vatican Secretariat of State acknowledged allegations made by a Novus Ordo priest in 2000 against Theodore McCarrick — VIEW LETTER HERE
In a new interview published by the Italian paper Sole 24 Ore, Francis says God “needs our voice to denounce the injustices committed in silence, sometimes complicit, of many”, does not speak about Vigano allegations
A Novus Ordo priest and canon lawyer writes that “the Secretariat of State of the Holy See — under the direction of Pietro Cardinal Parolin — has communicated an instruction to its internal and external security services to use its ‘intelligence resources’ to locate the physical whereabouts of Abp. Viganò”
“Abp.” Dennis Schnurr of Cincinnati, Ohio, has said on a radio show that the only way to find out the truth is to “open the McCarrick file”
Acknowledging calls for his resignation, “Cardinal” Wuerl of Washington, D.C., still has no intention to step down
“Bishop” Gerard de Korte of ‘s-Hertogenbosch, Netherlands, urges “joyful faith” in “days of crisis”
Whistleblower “Fr.” Boniface Ramsey says McCarrick needs to be laicized and be subjected to a complete ecclesiastical trial if Club Francis wants to have any credibility
Reactions from Select Blogs and Web Sites
The editors of the National Catholic Register maintain that “only with the Vatican’s cooperation will we see the documents that can prove or disprove Archbishop Viganò’s accusations”
A Novus Ordo writer says that “silence only implies the pope’s guilt”
Vatican Insider‘s Gianni Valente says Benedict XVI is caught in the ‘grinder’ of the Vigano operation
“Fr.” Michel-Marie Zanotti-Sorkine of Marseille, France, writes that Francis “has been betrayed by one of his former close collaborators, Archbishop Vigano”, whose “motives do not seem to be completely pure”
La Croix‘s Robert Mickens claims that “no matter what is or is not based on fact in Carlo Maria Viganò’s statement, the real and sinful truth in the end is that it’s nothing more than self-serving”

What will tomorrow bring?
These sordid deeds and cover-ups suggest credibility to the sedevacantist position, as with the fact that there is no authority from false Popes, while clinging to traditional Catholic faith is the safest path.
When the Church publishes a map of the US with blue dots over parishes that have disciplinary relocated clergy practicing, then people may trust again.
I know that will never happen.
