BTW, if you're not familiar with him, Austin is an ace global conservative activist who punches way above his weight, operates on a shoestring and gets more political bang per buck than anybody I've ever heard of. He's the President of the Center for Family and Human Rights (C-FAM) and spends his days fighting the pro-abort and pro-pervert forces at the U.N. Very smart and beaucoup courage. (Some people have smarts. Some people have courage. He has both.)
So what kind of accelerants can we throw into the mix to speed this along?
Your thoughts? Should DJT do this? Who can we lean on to make it happen?
There are certainly conservative Catholics but many churches and Catholics are flaming libs.
He can’t even drain our swamp.
bkmk
Trump should also open an investigation into whether or not the US Gov participated in pressuring Pope Benedict XVI to step down.
RICO.
Yes, definitely.

No,he should stay out of it-——he has enough on his plate.

I’m for it. It’s a good idea from the perspective of the Church.
However, there needs to be a specific upside for the USA for 45 to get involved. It may be as easy as crashing the worldwide network of pederasts/pedovores.
It would be better if there were other more ‘national interest’ reasons.
The idea might be tempting, but could simultaneously open several cans of worms. One, there would be First Amendment concerns. That is despite the status of the Vatican as a sovereign state with whom the US maintains diplomatic relations.
Two, the "rot" isn't just within the Roman Catholic church. It's at every level of society and western civilization in general. The real decay started after World War I and continued to grow through the last century. The scandal of abuse in the Roman Church goes back decades and, as usual, it's the cover up that gets people most upset.
But Protestants, Jews, non-believers, no segment of society is immune from this. It's just that the Catholic Church has been so monolithic and so far in denial, and that the abuse has been overwhelmingly homosexual in nature and so deeply implanted in generations of seminarians to priests to bishops to cardinals, and now up to the Pope himself.
But for a US President to take action? That would be a tough and very complicated call. I think it's up to Catholics to take their church by the scruff of the neck and fix it. I'm not sure how the rest of us can help other than with encouragement and prayer.
If Archbishop Vigano didn’t bring copies of these documents with him, or give them to others for safe-keeping, they’ve already been shredded.
No. Just enforce the laws of the U.S.A. and attend to U.S. interests. This isn’t old Europe. Our forefathers came here to get away from that.
Sounds like a RICO investigation is in order. Search warrants & grand jury subpoenas are necessary.
