The Pope has reportedly taken action against a notoriously anti-LGTBQ+ US cardinal.
According to AP, Pope Francis has revoked the right to a subsidized Vatican apartment and retirement salary for Cardinal Raymond L. Burke, 75.
The Pope reportedly told a meeting of heads of the Vatican that Burke spread “disunity” in the church.
Burke, who spends much of his time in his home state of Wisconsin, has long been a critic of Pope Francis.
Burke used to occupy a senior position at the Vatican as its high court justice.
According to a representative for Burke, the cardinal was unaware of losing his Vatican apartment or salary.
On Sunday, November 19th, Pope Francis held a pasta lunch for 1,200 people at the Vatican in honor of World Day of the Poor. »
