The Red Pope does not want anyone in the Catholic Church who is pro-Christian and tradition. He has made deals with Communist China to pick his Cardinals and Bishops, and he has made a complete fool of himself backing all woke agendas world-wide. Is anyone surprised of him making this move against an Archbishop who has the best interests of his flock at heart?
A prominent conservative archbishop and vocal critic of Pope Francis, Carlo Maria Viganò, has been excommunicated by the Vatican. Viganò, who previously served as the Vatican’s ambassador to the United States, was found guilty of schism by the Vatican’s doctrinal office after a recent meeting.
The Vatican has officially excommunicated Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò, the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith announced Friday.

The Vatican’s statement cited Viganò’s refusal to acknowledge the authority of the Pope, his rejection of communion with church members under the Pope, and his dismissal of the Second Vatican Council’s legitimacy. This excommunication formally places Viganò outside the church, barring him from celebrating or receiving sacraments due to the serious nature of his offenses.
Schism, the act of withdrawing submission to the Pope or separating from the Catholic communion, poses a significant threat to the unity of the church. Over the years, Viganò amassed a following of conservatives and traditionalists by promoting the idea that the Great Reset is Marxism and will destroy the church. The Red Pope wants such destruction and welcomes any policy that destroys the faith.
Viganò’s tenure as the Vatican’s envoy in Washington was marked by significant events, including Pope Francis’ 2015 visit to the United States, which Viganò helped organize. During this visit, Viganò arranged for Kim Davis, a Kentucky clerk who refused to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples, to meet the Pope. This meeting sparked controversy, with Davis and her supporters claiming it endorsed her cause. However, the Vatican later clarified that the only private audience Francis had in Washington included a gay couple, undermining Davis’ claims.

The tensions between Viganò and Pope Francis escalated in August 2018 when Viganò accused the Pope of ignoring allegations of sexual abuse against former Cardinal Theodore McCarrick. In an 11-page letter, Viganò claimed that he had informed the Pope about the allegations in 2013, but the Pope allegedly allowed McCarrick to continue serving publicly. Viganò’s letter also contained ideological criticisms and unfounded claims about homosexuals within the Church. Pope Francis has coddled those that abuse children and women, The Archbishop wasn’t having any of it.
These accusations led to one of the most significant crises of Pope Francis’ pontificate. The Vatican denied any cover-up and recently summoned Viganò to answer charges of schism and denying the Pope’s legitimacy. Viganò refused to participate in the disciplinary proceedings, rejecting the authority of the tribunal and its officials.
In a statement issued last week, Viganò reiterated his rejection of Vatican Council II, describing it as a “cancer” within the Church. He also criticized Cardinal Victor Manuel Fernandez, head of the doctrinal office, and Pope Francis.
Following the Vatican’s announcement of his excommunication, Viganò had not commented publicly but had announced plans to celebrate a Mass for his supporters and requested donations. His excommunication marks a significant moment in the ongoing tensions within the Catholic Church, highlighting the challenges Pope Francis faces in maintaining unity. Will the Catholic Church stay reduced as a servant of the globalists and communist China? Stay tuned, as this Pope is aging and may not last very long.
