So, what happens now? Does Cardinal Burke bring these priests into his fold? I am certain the affected priests would be relieved to be relieved of their apostate bishop.

Pope Francis will do what? Stand there? Say absolutely nothing of correction? Of course. This is his baby. This is his goal. To split the Church is his aim.

Where is the College of Cardinals and what time do their planes land to gather for a correction of this “error” made ever so cheerfully and with “mercy” by this pope?

This is mockery of the highest order, of Christ’s Church.

a divinis suspension, are you kidding me??

You have posted many eye-openers, but THIS one takes the proverbial cake.

I must assume the Vatican is aware of this heresy, why don’t they act upon it?

It’s very much like 16th century England. Priests will have to choose between going along to get along and adhering to the Catholic faith. They can’t do both.

The fake Pope is starting to employ brass knuckle tactics?

The schism is crystallizing with every passing day.

When there are some bishops who say "no communion for the divorced and civilly remarried" while at the same time there are other bishops who say "the divorced and remarried may receive Communion" and attempt to enforce that policy with menaces, that is a situation of de facto schism. Two diametrically opposed, irreconcilable episcopal rulings on a matter of grave importance.

Since every bishop must, at some time or another, take a position on this matter, we will eventually be in a "two church" situation.
