The renegade priest is Father Michael Tegeder of the Archdiocese of Minneapolis. Archbishop John Nienstedt shepherds that local church. His Excellency supported the effort to uphold traditional marriage in Minnesota. As in Maryland, that measure failed.
Father Tedeger opposed the efforts to uphold God-ordained marriage. Now he has called upon the Archbishop to resign, to take that "under prayerful consideration". Understand this; the dissident renegade priest is violating his priestly vow of obedience by rebuking his bishop for acting like the Catholic bishop that he is. Of course he was violating that vow all during the effort, and giving scandal to his parish in the meantime.
If there's one thing that I'd suggest to the Archbishop, it's that he consider removing the faculties of this renegade priest for the good of all - including Father Tegeder. (Note: if that happens in the future, I will come back to this post and put the word "father" in quotes since he won't be able to hold himself as a priest).

I think that the election was proof as to where this nation is headed, and it will not be toward God. Please see the latest Michael Voris video entitled "Aftermath." We must support vocally those clergy who uphold Catholicism, and call out, vocally, those who do not. Catholicism, like all other Christian religions, must purge themselves of the wickedness of socialism and socialists masquerading as men (and women) of God. God help us all.
