thelettersfromleo.comThe Catholic Church Is BackSixteen years after a Vatican cardinal dismissed the abuse crisis as “petty gossip,” Pope Leo XIV sat with survivors at Lourdes. Benedict and Francis made the American pope possible.

Over a three-decade State Department career, I knew a number of the speechwriters who worked for various SecStates in both GOP and Democratic administrations. None of those speechwriters was a Nazi or Nazi sympathizer. If they had been discovered to be one, they would have been fired.
