Bishop Strickland made a statement regarding the news of the Vatican's desire for his resignation. He acknowledged the pope's right to remove him from his post. However, he says that he will not resign, thus running from the charge given to him by Pope Benedict. I for one support Strickland's stance. If the pope wants Strickland out, he will have to get ugly about it.
Bishop Athanasius Schneider sent to Bishop Strickland a very supportive letter, and it was shared by LifeSiteNews. In that letter, Schneider told Strickland that future popes would thank Strickland for his fidelity to Christ's teachings. Likewise, Archbishop Vigano communicated his thoughts to Strickland, encouraging him to continue his course and not quit his post voluntarily. We await communications from other prelates. Surely Schneider and Vigano cannot be the only ones who, like Strickland, understand what it truly means to be a bishop.
So what will be Francis' next move? Whatever it is, it will have to wait. It seems that Francis is going to address the Clinton Foundation on September 18. This will take the form of a "special conversation" with Bill Clinton regarding favorite pet causes of the progressives, such as "climate change" and unbridled amnesty for border-crashers. Other attendees of this conference include Hillary and Chelsea Clinton, some of our less-than-favorite left-wing governors such as the ones from California, Maryland, Illinois, Michigan. Among others, there is a representative from an outfit called "Black Trans Liberation". Now take a look at this guy. Would you want to meet him in a dark alley?
Somehow when Francis chats with Bill Clinton, I suspect that he won't be calling the Clintons and the rest of that cabal to repentance for their promotion of baby-slaughter and sexual perversions. I expect that conversation to be all happy-clappy with mutual praise and admiration flowing ad nauseum.
Understand the reason why Francis is only too happy to chat with a pro-abortion left-wing cabal while drawing long knives upon faithful clergy. He and the ilk led by George Soros, Klaus Schwab, Bill Gates, etc are in cahoots with each other. Faithful prelates stand in their way because the leftwing agenda is at complete odds with the teachings of Our Lord. Not only do the progressives consider bishops like Joseph Strickland to be fair game, but the bulls-eyes are trained on us as well. We need to acknowledge that.
