I feel suffocated whenever Tucho's name crosses the screen. Surely the best solution for his expenses would for him to remain in Argentina, preferably in Tierra del Fuego. There he could further ruminate upon the Mariological mysteries of the Faith -- and perhaps brush up on the differences between Anglicanism and Roman Catholicism.
This is a distraction from what really should be discussed. That Prevost was invalidly elected by the cardinals because they violated two papal laws. First they violated Pope JPII's Universi Dominici Gregis max limit of 120 electors, and secondly they elected a candidate who had made statements against the Catholic faith contrary to Pope Paul IV's Cum Apostolatus Oficio (Prevost supported Amoris Laetitia, Fiducia Supplicans and is against capital punishment).
I invite everyone to read this canonical analysis proving by assetion.
Apparently, compassion seemed to be demonstrated in a most unequal manner in 2023. One cannot help raising an eyebrow regarding the VIP treatment, the amount of advantages that Pope Francis showered on his close friend, Cdl Fernández, compared to the harsh and cold treatment of Cdl Burke. Who is one of the most faithful of all. A very warmhearted and saintly man. It was terribly sad to watch what looked like petty and vengeful behaviour. I am very grateful to Pope Leo that he has repealed the decree.
I noticed that one of the subjects taken off of discussion was the reform of the curia. This subject was not even mentioned to be on the june consistory. The Vatican preaches charity and generosity, but it seems only london apartments and other excesses are where tithes are going.
Those of us who were outraged at the loss of Cardinal Burke's low rent on his residence in the Vatican did not know that he was not singled out. Cardinal Prevost, a good friend of Pope Francis, was also affected. Thanks for the good news that the policy has been changed back.
He was singled out, Francis took his pension away as well. Leo is only reversing the housing costs for his own reasons. Make no mistake in seeing the Modernist pope Leo as a better man, he is not. If he were, the apostasy of Bishop James Martin, and all his heretical words and actions would have been swiftly addressed by Leo. The pope who smiles ‘gently’ and looks the other way at acts of heresy. Especially those acts of the “faggotry”.
I apologize for the misplaced reply. I find I can get misdirected on substack quite easily, so may just delete some recent replies and begin again. I haven’t yet caught on to navigating the site proficiently.
Do you mean you didn’t realize he’s not actually a Bishop, regardless of his papal access and high profile in both the previous pontificate and this one?
I thought you were being sarcastic when you addressed him as “Bishop”.
I don’t know if I could deal with that actually happening. 🙈
Sorry, I don’t really remember any comments about Martin in this article. I’ll reread it when I’m not working. I don’t recall speaking about Martin the heretic in this article.
I see no reason to have housing be free of charge. The Vatican's finances are not in good condition... I would rather have these prelates pay a fair rate for their housing. Most cardinals are high net worth individuals... Get the finances in order, then consider freebies
I'm puzzled that Pope Francis used a rescript for this administrative act. Rescripts are usually favors, privileges, or the granting of some request (CIC c. 59). The only category that would fit here is the latter, and the administrator who grants such a request has to be aware of rights or privileges of others that could be harmed (in this case, many people who needed housing in Rome to do their curial work). Who would have made such a request, and why would Francis grant it? It would be good to understand how it came to be in the first place. Seems to have punished both people he disagreed with and people he put into their positions.

I applaud Pope Leo's action. But it further demonstrates that Jorge Bergoglio, Pope Francis, was a vindictive, uncharitable person.
You are kind.
Although I can appreciate what Pope Leo has done in this instance, I wish he would correct the plethora of harmful things Bergolio did as Pope!
Dignum et Justum est.

“Bishop” James Martin? In his and Francis’ dreams. Although, the way things are looking, it may be prophetic sarcasm.
Oh, you’re referring to my mention of Martin in regard to faggotry. Ok. Yes, agree he’s no bishop.
I apologize for the misplaced reply. I find I can get misdirected on substack quite easily, so may just delete some recent replies and begin again. I haven’t yet caught on to navigating the site proficiently.
Same for me, I apologize for my distraction. Hope you have a good day.
I haven’t read the Substack in J. Martin yet. But I will. He’s such a thorn in our side.

Small consolation, but yes, it is true.

Ah, is this all there is to report on? Well, I guess no news is good news.
As long as Tucho has a hand in promulgating doctrine, no news truly is good news.
So Cardinal Burke has been a good boy. Silent.
I really could care less. Make the modernist as comfortable as possible because the afterlife is going to be rough for him
Burke, A Vatican II apostate
Do the Muslims have to pay rent for their new office in the Vatican?

Proud of our Pope Leo!
