Edit: this is something which has been going on for a long time and the channels through which this money and influence flow have been part of the way the government does business with the Church in American politics from the very beginning.
What role did Thomas Rosica play in all this? To listen to him, you'd think he was on Soros' payroll.
August 23, 2016 (LifeSiteNews) – Leaked emails through WikiLeaks reveal that billionaire globalist George Soros - one of Hilary Clinton's top donors - paid $650,000 to influence Pope Francis’ September 2015 visit to the USA with a view to "shift[ing] national paradigms and priorities in the run-up to the 2016 presidential campaign." The funds were allocated in April 2015 and the report on their effectiveness suggests that successful achievements included, “Buy-in of individual bishops to more publicly voice support of economic and racial justice messages in order to begin to create a critical mass of bishops who are aligned with the Pope.”
The monies were granted to two US entities that have been engaged in a long-term project, according to the report, of shifting “the priorities of the US Catholic church.” Grantees were PICO, a faith-based community organizing group, and Faith in Public Life (FPL), a progressive group working in media to promote left-leaning ‘social justice’ causes. Soros has funded left-wing causes the world over and was just foundto have been funding an effort to eliminate pro-life laws around the globe.
Board Minutes from the May 2015 meeting of Soros’ Open Society Foundation in New York reveal that in the planning stages of the papal visit initiative, the group planned to work through one of the Pope’s key advisors, Cardinal Oscar Rodriguez Maradiaga, naming him specifically in the report. In order to seize on the opportunity provided by the Pope’s visit to the US, says the report, “we will support PICO’s organizing activities to engage the Pope on economic and racial justice issues, including using the influence of Cardinal Rodriguez, the Pope’s senior advisor, and sending a delegation to visit the Vatican in the spring or summer to allow him to hear directly from low-income Catholics in America.”
Can't say I'm surprised. The pope is running the church like a banana republic and the American bishops have been swooning over the Democratic Party for decades.
ReplyDeleteThis is why we are all called to more prayer, more penances, and a more intense sacramental life in this spiritual battle. We MUST be the true remnant armed with our spiritual weapons that no money can buy. And we must console the Heart of Jesus.
ReplyDeleteMaradiaga is key here.Follow the money.
ReplyDeleteStories like this seem fishy to me. Soros and the Jesuits are on the same page as regards the New World Order. So why would Soros fork over $650 K worth of influence that is already built in?
ReplyDeleteWas it not Jesus Christ who came into the World to create the, "New World Order?"
DeleteI never thought that bishops were so cheap.
