The Head Of Vatican Saint-Making Office Cardinal Angelo Becciu Resigns Under Scandal So Bad That Pope Francis Refuses To Say What It Is
Cardinal Angelo Becciu, resigned suddenly Thursday from the post and renounced his rights as a cardinal amid a financial scandal that has reportedly implicated him indirectly.
The powerful head of the Vatican’s saint-making office, Cardinal Angelo Becciu, resigned suddenly Thursday from the post and renounced his rights as a cardinal amid a financial scandal that has reportedly implicated him indirectly.
Think of how crazy this is. The man who is in charge of running the Vatican office that ‘creates saints’ is forced to resign under a cloud of scandal so dark that Pope Francis and the Vatican won’t even tell you what the reason is. Some are saying it is a financial scandal, perhaps related to the Vatican funding the Elton John biopic ‘Rocketman’, which proudly featured Hollywood’s first gay sex scene. Others are comparing this to previous cardinals who quit in dramatic fashion as Becciu has, due to homosexual child rape accusations. So take your pic, financial impropriety or pedophilia.
“After the devil himself, there is no worse folk than the pope and his followers.” – Martin Luther
Isn’t it amazing that the same people who tell you they have the power to ‘create saints’ are mired as deep in scandal as any politician or mafioso? If you think that this holy Roman mess is the church that Jesus went to the cross to start, you couldn’t be more mistaken. The Vatican is a pit of devils, and will be right up to the moment God destroys it all in Revelation 18.
Powerful Vatican Cardinal Becciu resigns amid scandal
FROM THE AP: The Vatican provided no details on why Pope Francis accepted Becciu’s resignation in a statement late Thursday. In the one-sentence announcement, the Holy See said only that Francis had accepted Becciu’s resignation as prefect of the Congregation for the Causes of Saints “and his rights connected to the cardinalate.”
Becciu, the former No. 2 in the Vatican’s secretariat of state, has been reportedly implicated in a financial scandal involving the Vatican’s investment in a London real estate deal that has lost the Holy See millions of euros in fees paid to middlemen.
The Vatican prosecutor has placed several Vatican officials under investigation, as well as the middlemen, but not Becciu. Becciu has defended the soundness of the original investment and denied any wrongdoing, and it’s not clear whether the scandal itself was behind his resignation or possibly sparked a separate line of inquiry.
But the late-breaking news of his resignation, the severity of his apparent sanction, the Vatican’s tight-lipped release and the unexpected downfall of one of the most powerful Vatican officials all suggested a shocking new chapter in the scandal, which has convulsed the Vatican for the past year.
The last time a cardinal’s rights were removed was when American Theodore McCarrick renounced his rights and privileges as a cardinal in July 2018 amid a sexual abuse investigation. He was subsequently defrocked altogether by Francis last year for sexually abusing adults as well as minors.
Before him, the late Scottish Cardinal Keith O’Brien in 2015 relinquished the rights and privileges of being a cardinal after unidentified priests alleged sexual misconduct. O’Brien was, however, allowed to retain the cardinal’s title and he died a member of the College of Cardinals, the elite group of churchmen whose main job is to elect a pope.
In the Vatican statement, the Holy See identified Becciu as “His Eminence Cardinal Angelo Becciu,” making clear he remained a cardinal but without any rights.
At 72, Becciu would have been able to participate in a possible future conclave to elect Francis’ successor. Cardinals over age 80 can’t vote. But by renouncing his rights as a cardinal, Becciu has relinquished his rights to take part.
Becciu was the “substitute,” or top deputy in the secretariat of state from 2011-2018, when Francis made him a cardinal and moved him into the Vatican’s saint-making office. He straddled two pontificates, having been named by Pope Benedict XVI and entrusted with essentially running the Curia, or Vatican bureaucracy, a position that gave him enormous influence and power.

Walmart Becomes Latest Major Corporation To Rollback DEI Policies As Trump Landslide Win Already Reversing The Tide Of Obama-Era Wokeness
Walmart, the world’s largest retailer, is rolling back its diversity, equity and inclusion policies, joining a growing list of major corporations that have done the same after Donald Trump win. Woke is dead, and that’s good.
This Thanksgiving, one of the things you can be thankful for is that it looks like many of the woke policies put in place by Barack and Michelle Obama, and kept in place by Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, just might finally be coming to an end. Policies like DEI hiring that mandates that a person get a job based, not on merit and qualifications, but on skin color and gender identity. Walmart is just one of many major corporations to begin rolling back the Diversity, Equity and Inclusion policies they were forced to enact. This is happening because Donald Trump just won in a landslide. Winning is good.
“And he asked him, What is thy name? And he answered, saying, My name is Legion: for we are many.” Mark 5:9 (KJB)
America is a diverse nation, and to a large degree, that diversity is our strength. But that only applies when talking about organic diversity as it is naturally found amongst our people. The artificial diversity created by the DEI and pronouns crowd is demonic in nature, and gives power to the most base elements of our society. Biological men do not belong in the ladies room, transgenders do not belong on the battlefield, and who wants their pilot or surgeon to hold those positions by virtue of their gender identity? So kudos to Walmart, as well as Toyota, Ford, Lowe’s, Tractor Supply, John Deere and other corporations who are voting for a return of sanity. The incoming Trump era is already bearing fruit, and that’s a lot to be thankful for. Now go out and tell lost people about salvation in Jesus Christ.

Walmart the latest big corporation to scale back DEI policies after pressure from conservative activists
FROM CBS NEWS: The changes, confirmed by Walmart on Monday, are sweeping and include everything from not renewing a five-year commitment for an equity racial center set up in 2020 after the police killing of George Floyd to pulling out of a prominent gay rights index. And when it comes to race or gender, Walmart won’t be giving priority treatment to suppliers.
Walmart’s moves underscore the increasing pressure faced by corporate America as it continues to navigate the fallout from the U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling in June 2023 ending affirmative action in college admissions. Emboldened by that decision, conservative groups have filed lawsuits making similar arguments about corporations, targeting workplace initiatives such as diversity programs and hiring practices that prioritize historically marginalized groups.

Separately, conservative political commentator and activist Robby Starbuck has been going after corporate DEI policies, calling out individual companies on the social media platform X. Several of those companies have subsequently announced that they are pulling back their initiatives, including Ford, Lowe’s, Tractor Supply and Harley-Davidson.
But Walmart, which employs 1.6 million workers in the U.S., is the largest one to do so.
“This is the biggest win yet for our movement to end wokeness in corporate America,” Starbuck wrote on X, adding that he’d been in conversation with Walmart.
Walmart confirmed to The Associated Press that it will better monitor its third-party marketplace items to make sure they don’t feature sexual and transgender products aimed at minors. That would include chest binders intended for youths who are going through a gender change, the company said. The Bentonville, Arkansas-based retailer will also be reviewing grants to Pride events to make sure it isn’t financially supporting sexualized content that may be unsuitable for kids. For example, the company wants to makes sure a family pavilion isn’t next to a drag show at a Pride event, the company said.
Additionally, Walmart will no longer consider race and gender as a litmus test to improve diversity when it offers supplier contracts. The company said it didn’t have quotas and won’t do so going forward. It won’t be gathering demographic data when determining financing eligibility for those grants.
The changes come soon after an election win by former President Donald Trump, who’s criticized DEI initiatives and surrounded himself with conservatives who hold similar views, including his former adviser Stephen Miller, who leads a group called America First Legal that has challenged corporate DEI policies. Trump named Miller to be the deputy chief of policy in his new administration. READ MORE

BLITZKREIG! Germany Is Preparing To Reactivate Their World War 2 Bomb Shelters To Protect Their Citizens As NATO Warns Of Coming ‘Wartime Scenario’
Germany is drawing up a list of bunkers that could provide emergency shelter for civilians, with NATO warning at a time of rising tensions with Russia.
Donald Trump still has 56 days until he is sworn in as president of the United States, and by that time, he could easily be assassinated or World War 3 could be underway. A top NATO military official on Monday urged businesses to be prepared for a wartime scenario and adjust their production and distribution lines accordingly, in order to be less vulnerable to blackmail from countries such as Russia and China. Starmer in the UK and Emmanuel Macron in France are preparing to send in ground troops to Ukraine.
“The words of his mouth were smoother than butter, but war was in his heart: his words were softer than oil, yet were they drawn swords.” Psalm 55:21 (KJB)
Remember back in the days right before the lockdowns? Everyone was whispering that something might be coming, could be coming, and then – WHAMMO!! – there it was. How long have we been doing the same with this seemingly inevitable buildup to World War 3 we’ve been watching and are watching unfold right now? The US Federal Emergency Management Agency has released a spine-chilling survival guide for a nuclear attack amid the escalating Ukraine conflict and intensifying Middle Eastern disputes. Echoing Cold War-era preparedness, the agency’s updated advice aims to shield Americans from the horrors of a nuclear explosion. World War 3 is absolutely coming, it’s only a question of when.
Germany draws up list of bunkers amid Russia tensions as NATO warns
FROM THE GUARDIAN UK: The list would include underground train stations and car parks as well as state buildings and private properties, a ministry spokesperson said. A digital directory of bunkers and emergency shelters will be drawn up so people can find them quickly using a planned phone app. People would also be encouraged to create protective shelters in their homes by converting basements and garages, the spokesperson told a press briefing.
He declined to give a timetable, saying it was a big project that would take some time, involving the Office of Civil Protection and Disaster Assistance and other authorities.
The country of 84 million people has 579 bunkers, mostly from the second world war and the cold war era, which can provide shelter for 480,000 people, down from about 2,000 bunkers previously.
The spokesperson said the key points of the plan were agreed at a conference of senior officials in June and a special group was looking into it.
Since Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022, concerns have been growing about Moscow’s potential to target other NATO members. In October, German intelligence chiefs warned that Russia would probably be capable of launching an attack on the military alliance by 2030. German officials say the country is already experiencing a sharp rise in Russian spying and sabotage activities. Last week the Russian president, Vladimir Putin, said the conflict in Ukraine had characteristics of a “global” war and he did not rule out strikes on western countries. READ MORE
