The USA had Obama. The Catholic Church has the Pope. IMHO.

Seems the deep state has taken over the Vatican too.

The long-suffering, faithful "Underground"Catholic Church in China stabbed in the back by the faithless Francis. The thirty pieces of silver in this instance, will be an invitation to visit China which will soon be formally issued by the Communists.

Francis will visit amid great fanfare and acclamation from Western media and will be hailed as the great "peace maker" who initiated a "rapprochement" between the Church and Chinese government. All to feed Francis' overblown ego.

Meanwhile, faithful 'underground" Catholics will suffer and weep as they have throughout the world during this pontificate.
