George Soros, Barack Obama, and Hillary Clinton orchestrated a coup in the Vatican to overthrow conservative Pope Benedict in February 2013, according to WikiLeaks emails.
Pope Benedict became the first pope to resign since Pope Gregory XII in 1415, and the first one to do so on his own initiative since Pope Celestine V in 1294.
Gloria.tv reports: However the group of Catholic leaders cite new evidence uncovered in emails released by WikiLeaks to claim the conservative Pope Benedict did not actually resign on his own initiative, but was pushed out of the Vatican by a coup that the group of researchers are calling the “Catholic Spring.”
Soros, Obama and Clinton used the United States’ diplomatic machinery, political muscle, and financial power to coerce, bribe and blackmail “regime change” in the Roman Catholic Church in order to replace the conservative Benedict with the current Pope Francis – who has since become an unlikely mouthpiece for the international left, stunning Catholics around the world.

Now the group of Catholic leaders have sent a letter to President Trump urging him to launch an official investigation into the activities of George Soros, Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton (and others) who they allege were involved in orchestrating Catholic Spring that resulted in their goal of “regime change” in the Vatican.
The Catholic leaders cite eight specific questions they seek to have answered concerning suspect events that led to the resignation of Pope Benedict, the first papal abdication in 700 years.
“Specifically, we have reason to believe that a Vatican ‘regime change’ was engineered by the Obama administration,” say the petitioners, in their January 20 letter to President Trump.
“We were alarmed to discover,” their letter notes, “that, during the third year of the first term of the Obama administration your previous opponent, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, and other government officials with whom she associated proposed a Catholic ‘revolution’ in which the final demise of what was left of the Catholic Church in America would be realized.”
The letter includes links to documents and news stories underscoring their claims. It first directs attention to the notorious Soros-Clinton-Podesta e-mails disclosed last year by WikiLeaks, in which Podesta and other progressives discussed regime change to remove what they described as the “middle ages dictatorship” in the Catholic Church.
Regarding the Podesta e-mails in question, The New American reported last October:
“Podesta, a longtime Clinton adviser/confidante and hand-picked top activist for left-wing funder George Soros, revealed in a 2011 e-mail that he and other activists were working to effect a “Catholic Spring” revolution within the Catholic Church, an obvious reference to the disastrous “Arab Spring” coups organized that same year by the Obama-Clinton-Soros team that destabilized the Middle East and brought radical Islamist regimes and terrorist groups to power in the region. The Podesta e-mail is a response to another Soros-funded radical — Sandy Newman, founder of the “progressive” Voices for Progress. Newman had written to Podesta seeking advice on the best way to “plant the seeds of the revolution” in the Catholic Church, which he described as a “middle ages [sic] dictatorship.”
In their letter to President Trump, the group of Catholics leaders write: “Approximately a year after this e-mail discussion, which was never intended to be made public, we find that Pope Benedict XVI abdicated under highly unusual circumstances and was replaced by a pope whose apparent mission is to provide a spiritual component to the radical ideological agenda of the international left. The Pontificate of Pope Francis has subsequently called into question its own legitimacy on a multitude of occasions.”
“We remain puzzled by the behavior of this ideologically charged Pope, whose mission seems to be one of advancing secular agendas of the left rather than guiding the Catholic Church in Her sacred mission,” they say, expressing the thoughts of millions of Catholics around the world stunned by Pope Francis’s left-wing ideology. “It is simply not the proper role of a Pope to be involved in politics to the point that he is considered to be the leader of the international left.”
They continue:
“With all of this in mind, and wishing the best for our country as well as for Catholics worldwide, we believe it to be the responsibility of loyal and informed United States Catholics to petition you to authorize an investigation into the following questions:
– To what end was the National Security Agency monitoring the conclave that elected Pope Francis?
– What other covert operations were carried out by US government operatives concerning the resignation of Pope Benedict or the conclave that elected Pope Francis?
– Did US government operatives have contact with the “Cardinal Danneels Mafia”?
– International monetary transactions with the Vatican were suspended during the last few days prior to the resignation of Pope Benedict. Were any U.S. Government agencies involved in this?
– Why were international monetary transactions resumed on February 12, 2013, the day after Benedict XVI announced his resignation? Was this pure coincidence?
– What actions, if any, were actually taken by John Podesta, Hillary Clinton, and others tied to the Obama administration who were involved in the discussion proposing the fomenting of a “Catholic Spring”?
– What was the purpose and nature of the secret meeting between Vice President Joseph Biden and Pope Benedict XVI at the Vatican on or about June 3, 2011?
– What roles were played by George Soros and other international financiers who may be currently residing in United States territory?”
The investigation the group of Catholic leaders is requesting of President Trump should be of interest to more than just Catholics. George Soros’s ability to co-opt leading political figures to assist his radical plans for nation states is well known; but his ability to force “regime change” in the Catholic church, an institution previously throught impenetrable from the outside, raises serious questions about his potential for global chaos. The investigation — and punishment — should begin at once.
The “beginning of the end” of traditional Catholicism was sealed with the infiltration of the Catholic Church “Vatican II Ecumenical Council” of the 1960s by Jews and Protestants who were involved in the “modernization” of the Catholic Church.
Much Catholic ritual was discarded, as well as the promotion of the absolution of the Jews for Jesus Christ’s crucifixion and death, despite vitriolic Jewish hatred of Jesus Christ which exists to this day. The fact is, the Jews DID get the Romans to crucify Jesus Christ and DID accept full responsibility for the crucifixion and death of Jesus Christ. As is the case today, they got others (Pontius Pilate) do do their “dirty work” for them…
Abandoning the use of Latin in the Mass destroyed its “universality”. Previous to Vatican II, one could attend Mass anywhere in the Roman Catholic world and understand the meaning of the Mass.
Prohibition of the celebration of the Tridentine Mass (except by special ecclesiastical permission) pushed many Catholics away from the new “Modern Mass” and the New Church, in general…It took a brave Archbishop Lefebvre and the Society of St. Pius X to “push back” against Vatican II and re-legitimize the celebration of the pre-Vatican II Tridentine Mass and other Catholic rites.
In pre-Vatican II times, the priest (celebrant of the Mass) was considered to be a part of the congregation, and a representative of the people.
By turning the priest around to face the congregation, the priest was no longer a representative, but an “actor”, diminishing his status and importance.
One area where the Catholic Church could improve itself involves celibacy, which is NOT Church “dogma” or doctrine. Celibacy was put in place during the middle ages in order to keep Church property from being inherited by family and relatives of priests and bishops. Celibacy was based on purely financial considerations–nothing more. It is interesting to note that Episcopal (Anglican) priests who convert to Catholicism can bring their families with them to the Church while Roman Catholic priests are denied marriage.
It was a grave mistake by the Church to de-legitimize celebration of pre-Vatican II principles.
@ Anarchyst:
What you’ve written here, while all true, is only the tip of the Marxist iceberg. The Marxist infiltration designed to destroy the Western culture had religion at the center of it’s efforts, particularly the Catholic Church.
Antonio Gramsci was the leading voice in advocating this concept to Lenin. It was put into practice by infiltrating a cadre of revolutionaries throughout the Catholic world especially into the seminaries, using the weapon of homosexuality. Filling seminaries with gay men, who eventually would advance into positions of power, the Church would ultimately be undermined and sabotaged. See the writings of Bella Dodd and her testimony before Congress to fully understand.
The priest abuse scandals and the homosexualization of all things Catholic didn’t happen by accident. Humpty Dumpty was pushed.
You are correct. The Catholic Church has been co-opted by the “homosexual movement”. The “Lavender Lobby” was well-known in the American seminary system.
However, you will find that many other Christian sects have also been polluted by this abhorrent behavior…
The Catholic Church was a convenient “target” because of virulent jewish hatred toward Christ and Christianity, which exists to this very day…

Pedophilia Only a Catholic Sin?
August 14th, 2009 | Kevin Roeten
Pedophilia Only a Catholic Sin?
It turns out pedophilia is an incorrect term, and Catholics aren’t responsible for most of it.
Shockingly, AP breaks out of their typical liberal mold and reports Insurance companies shed light on extent of sex abuse in Protestant churches, that sexual abuse of minors has been rampant. But in their statement, they indirectly say members of the Catholic Church are not the majority abusers.
AP discusses the raw numbers from three companies that insure the majority of protestant churches in America (Church Mutual, Guide One, and Brotherhood Mutual), and typically receive 260 reports/yr of people under 18 being sexually abused. Compare that with ~228 credible accusations/yr against Catholic clerics since 1950 (documented abuse records).
Together with that information, it is known that the Catholic Church greatly outnumbers any specific Protestant denomination, and the data for Protestant churches is available only for the last seven years. Ever since the first sexual abuse cases had been reported, Catholics have had requirements: 1) police background check done on all volunteers–including priests, 2) a second person be present at all religious functions, and 3) all personnel involved with minors must take routine checks with “Protecting God’s Children”.
Without a doubt, sexual abuse of a minor is one of the most despicable crimes and sins that man can perpetrate. But predators seem to thrive in an atmosphere where the base congregation is one of the most trusted organizations that exist.
Philip Jenkins, in his 1996 book Pedophiles and Priests, [[link edited for length]], looked at the problem objectively and dispassionately. Jenkins (who is not Catholic) found that true pedophilia is extremely rare, and perhaps more common among Protestant clergy, and is even more common among married laymen.
He found that in most sexual abuse cases (under the age of consent), the behavior is actually a variety of homosexuality. This sexual attraction with very young men that combine the charm of boyishness with sexual maturity is actually called ephebophilia. Pedophilia is really a psychiatric term meaning sexual interest in children below the age of puberty.’
————————————————————————————————————————————
‘The worst sex crimes against children is in the Jewish communities and protestant churches’
Tomasi was not reserved with criticism either and citing data published by the daily Christian Science Monitor, which was founded a hundred years ago by the Christian Science Church, said that the Catholic Church cleaned its house, Jutarnji List writes.
According to their figures the majority of the US child abuse cases happens in the Protestant churches and Jewish communities, says Tomasi.’

MORE PROTESTANT MINISTERS GUILTY OF PEDOPHILIA THAN CATHOLIC PRIESTS, NEW RESEARCH REVEALS
A Penn State historian, Philip Jenkins, has done an in depth research of pedophilia and sexual abuse among the clergy and has come up with some rather eye opening facts. It seems that while 1.7 percent of Catholic clergy have been guilty of pedophilia (or sexual abuse particularly of boys), a whopping TEN percent of Protestant ministers have been found guilty of pedophilia!
This is all the more interesting, notes Jenkins, since there has been NO media term “Pastor Pedophilia” coined at all!
Jenkins theorizes that the media, proving the ‘point’ of the ‘necessity’ of sexual promiscuity, overemphasizes any instance of pedophilia found among the Catholic clergy since it can use this to criticize the entire idea of celibacy. But it is interesting that the NON Celibate Protestant ministers have a MUCH GREATER problem with it than the celibate Catholic priests!
Protestant pastor pedophilia is not within the frame of our ‘social constructionists’ as Jenkins calls the media:
“In the 1980’s, [Pastor] Leyva had abused perhaps one hundred boys in several Southern states, but few of us ever learned of it. Leyva had the distinction of being a Pentecostal minister and was, therefore, not within the ‘frame’ of those who were busy constructing reality. The same is true of the three brothers, all Baptist ministers, who were charged with child molestation in the 1990’s; the public learned little about this highly unusual series of cases because it was not deemed worthy of dissemination by those fixated on Catholic scandals.” [1]
My God! Was there nothing that Obama, Clinton, Soros et al wouldn’t attempt to tear down?
Abandoning the use of Latin in Mass also changed the spirituality of the religious service. Non-Latin reduces the upliftment and etherealness of the service. Words and patterns of words change consciousness. Non-Latin makes the service mundane and worldly.
The letter was sent to the President on 22 Jan 2017, over one year ago, as reported in The Remnant:
https://remnantnewspaper.com/web/index.php/articles/item/3001-did-vatican-attempt-to-influence-u-s-election-catholics-ask-trump-administration-to-investigate
The globalist co-opting of the Catholic Church to favor normalization of the rag-tag collection of leftist malcontents and their cult of multicultural political correctness is pure evil.
Soros, Clintons (1, 2 & 3) soetero and the rest will burn in Hell.
The new “globalist pope” is trying to turn all the worlds religions into one big happy family…..
“come out of her my people”
The Vatican and Washington DC are tied together. They were tied together from the beginning. This ties in with Stucky’s QOTD from yesterday. I think I used the word “tie” too many times.
It’s much too long and complicated for me to go into now but I can link all of this together when I am recovering from my next surgery if no one else is interested in doing it before then.
I thought it was the Freemasons.
Them, too.
All tied together in a tidy knot of Tidings.
Carry on.
I vote that you go for it when you are up for it.
progressive leaders + the commie pope = pedophiles of a feather flock together
Please. Thinking people stopped giving a damn about the organization of the Catholic church after the priest scandals started coming out. No matter who they put in charge, it is nothing but a racket from top to bottom. If I want religion, I read the bible. I don’t need some person in a funny hat to translate for me.
If the church wants this fixed why don’t they just call a conference of Cardinals and fix it themselves?
“If the church wants this fixed why don’t they just call a conference of Cardinals and fix it themselves?”—–KaD
Because it’s the ‘Cardinals’ who broke it–intentionally, by design. There has been a silent coup in the Church since Vatican II, and now the usurpers are in charge. The same as with America being overtaken by the Deep State.
Faithful Catholics are a small remnant praying for a return to the true faith.
I know very little about Catholicism, but one doesn’t have to be Catholic to appreciate Padre Pio.
This quote is from about 1960.
“One day Padre Pio said to me very sorrowfully: ‘You know, Gabriele? It is Satan who has been introduced into the bosom of the Church and within a very short time will come to rule a false Church.’” ….
“the great apostasy within the Church. This was the issue that really tormented him”.
https://onepeterfive.com/chief-exorcist-father-amorth-padre-pio-knew-the-third-secret/
I read the link at onepeterfive… is interesting but am not positive I grasp the relevance to this posting?
Not that everything I comment is relevant, so don’t think I’m critical.
The left has been leading the charge against Christian values, and thus the church. And this has been going on inside the church, as Pio forecast.
The assaults on ten commandment displays, taking Christ out of Christmas, railing against anyone not bowing down to their ridiculous virtue signalling self righteousness, the pope’s unrelenting efforts to unleash Islam upon Christian Europe. etc. This is not all, but primarily coming from the left.
Maggie,
btw, wasn’t it you that posted, last fall, the Butter Bob fasting and diet strategy?
MANY THANKS! I decided to try it for 2 months for both weight loss and inflammation reduction. Inflammation from a significant knee injury is now practically gone. Plus I dropped all the weight I wanted within the first couple months. I feel insulin reduction was the key to my weight loss.
I did… I continue to lose weight and see improvements in so many areas. I wish I could get Nick to be a “fasting” believer but he has low insulin and grabs his oats or cereal first thing, when I think a couple of eggs with a dollop of cheese and spinach sauce would probably start his day much better. However, he is 61 years old and he’s not going to eat anything unless I cook it and since we get up at different hours, he’s kind of on his own.
The current pope is going down. I suspect he’s going to spend some time in GITMO. I’ve thought that based on digging by the anons for weeks. Ex presidents and a pope going down as part of the deep state cabal……..how much more delicious can it get? Dilley’s source has said that Soros will never see trial as he will be taken out (shot) by a foreign military who is fed up with his shit. I thought Hungary would get the honor but maybe we can add Swiss Guard to the list.
I can only stand by and hope. I wonder if Ann Barnhardt has commented on this Wikileak?
For traditional Catholicism, please look up the “Society of St. Pius X” (SSPX) . Archbishop Lefebvre stood toe-to-toe” with the Vatican who tried to outlaw the celebration of the Tridentine Mass. There are SSPX parishes throughout the world. You may be presently surprised.
The coming One World Order will take your guns away.
Over my dead body…not that – that isn’t possible.
And they MURDERED John-Paul 1 when he began exposing the massive fiscal crimes of the Vatican Bank (and who knows what else). They eluded to this very murder in Godfather Part 3. Just another banking cartel murder (as if funding every war isn’t enough thrill for these bastards).
