While Pope Francis protects clerical sex abusers like convicted rapist Fr. Marko Rupnik and honors pro-abortion celebrities such as Whoopie Goldberg, faithful prelates Bishop Strickland and Cardinal Burke are consistently targeted and then personally deposed by Pope Francis’ authoritarian hand. The Faith and Reason team assesses all of this and more.

At the press conference announcing the 2023 Rome Life Forum, attorney Liz Yore provided a shocking list of grievances experienced by victims of clerical sex abuse during Pope Francis’ pontificate.

Marko Rupnik — while ignoring the grave concerns expressed by clerical sex abuse survivors. Watch her speech at the LifeSite press conference as she outlines in powerful detail how Pope Francis continues to protect clerical sex abusers. Faithful Catholics have a right to know.
