Editor’s note: The following is a commentary from Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò, first posted on X/Twitter, about the Diocese of Rome’s recent statement regarding Father Rupnik and his Aletti Center.
(LifeSiteNews) — The declarations of the Vicariate of Rome on the Aletti Centre (the company that produces Father Marko Rupnik’s expensive and horrendous mosaics) and its founder leave one baffled and scandalized.
The Vatican sends commissaries and apostolic visitors to anyone who gives even a timid sign of fidelity to Catholic tradition, without giving justifications, without stating the reasons for apostolic visits, without guaranteeing the protection of the suspects and violating all confidentiality. Calumnies and unfounded accusations are fed to the media, for the sole purpose of terrorising anyone who dares to question Bergoglio’s actions and words.
Such ruthless severity disappears when it comes to his protégés, who may be blatantly guilty of the most heinous crimes, of the most horrendous offences – the McCarrick case among many is blatant proof of this – but are neither tried nor even condemned as they deserve. And the courtiers of Santa Marta are careful not to question the legacy that these perverse and corrupt clerics leave behind, as if their presence had been almost accidental. How much mercy, for the wicked. How much understanding. How much reserve in protecting their name and keeping quiet about the most gruesome details of their nefarious deeds.
As in all other no less shameful cases of sexual abuse, Bergoglian mercy does not care about the victims, whom it always tries to discredit and silence. Nor does it care about the scandal of the Roman clergy, or the discredit cast on the Auxiliary Bishop Msgr. Libanori, who has been shamelessly denied. What is the lesson to be learnt by the faithful? It is clear: if you are a heretic, corrupt, pervert, thief, sacrilegious, and serial predator, but you are Bergoglio’s friend, you enjoy total impunity. If you are Catholic, live consistently with the Faith and do not follow the Argentine tyrant, persecution is certain, cruel and merciless.
By now it is clear that the Bergoglian court does not serve the Church of Christ, but has embedded itself in it like a tumor to usurp its authority and destroy it from within.

People see it, but we are powerless to put an end to it!!
Vigano is pointing his finger at things that will increasingly isolate Francis from those anti-Catholics who are Francis's main protectors in the wider culture.
The things he is pointing his fingers at are celebrated by the heretics and perverted anti-Catholics. His mission is to do as much damage to the church as possible in the time he has. He has largely succeeded and is loved if not worshiped by his Marxists friends.
There are anti-Catholics and anti-Catholics. The Marxist anti-Catholics and pervs are Francis's inner circle of friends. They are a tiny group, compared to the vastly wider number of anti-Catholics in the world.
The enmity of most anti-Catholics (who are 99 percent anti-perv) is not helpful to Francis's odd crusade, because they draw attention to him while diminishing his influence due to the disgust factor.
A successor who is a non-perv and anti-Communist will acquire many friends in the wider world.
Anti-Catholics worldwide are grossed out by sodomy and by the idea of homosexual priests, and associate those things with the entire Catholic Church--as opposed to the fringe of Roman parasites they actually represent.
A non-perverse Pope (soon, Lord!) will be a breath of fresh air to the normal world outside of Rome--as John Paul II was, and Benedict XVI also (although less flamboyant).
I vote for Vigano.
I’m surprised that Bergoglio hasn’t tried to silence Archbishop Vigano already.
