The sheathing of the Catholic fachosphere with Leo XIV

Infovaticana is an ultramontane media outlet that has been a nuisance to the Holy See for years, to the point that they had to ask it to stop using symbols that could lead people to believe—oh, faith—that it was an official Church website. This isn't the case: this ultra-digital pamphlet was founded by the son of Julio Ariza, the driving force behind Intereconomía, and, to no one's surprise, several ties can be traced to Vox. In recent weeks, Infovaticana has distinguished itself by attempting to campaign against Cardinal Prevost to prevent him from becoming Pope. As Comrade Albert Llimós explained, they have tried to implicate him in a case of covering up abuse that, as far as he is concerned, has already been investigated and rejected.

The fact is that, with the same effectiveness as their Christian Lawyers cousins, they haven't gotten ahead, and Robert Prevost is now Leo XIV. And the editorial with which they greeted him was as hypocritical as even the merchants of the Temple. They wrote: "We know that God guides history, that the barque of Peter is not ours, and that we are not at the helm. There is a God, and it is not us." You have to have some nerve to write this when you've published a dossier with obvious defamatory intent, applying the well-known discipline of National Catholicism with a Francoist flavor: praying to God, and hitting with the hammerAfter leaving Prevost like a dirty rag, to the point of approaching him in Rome and taking advantage of the fact that he didn't go into the substance of the matter to headline "does not deny the accusations" in an article written with the intention of twisting the course of events, they now invoke the Holy Spirit and stage a retreat that even three Our Fathers and four Hail Marys shouldn't be able to achieve.
