THE POPE'S BOSS -- Wikileaks: Pope and Soros An Unholy Alliance Featured



Among the many smoking guns uncovered in the Wikileaks data dump, lurks documents that should give Catholics great concern. The latest Wikileaks data dump of internal documents from George Soros’ Open Society Foundation exposes the most shocking of all his political alliances. According to the leaked Open Society Foundation documents, George Soros funds efforts to promote his radical socialist agenda of income inequality by using the bully pulpit of Pope Francis. Soros seeks to “engage the Pope on economic and racial justice issues” by lobbying the Vatican.

The unholy alliance and stategic plan is exposed in the leaked Open Society U.S. Board Meeting May 2015 book on page 16:

Pope Francis Visit - $650,000 (USP)

Pope Francis’ first visit to the United States in September will include a historic address to Congress, a speech at the United Nations, and a visit to Philadelphia for the “World Meeting of Families.” In order to seize this moment, we will support PICO’s organizing activities to engage the Pope on economic and racial justice issues, including using the influence of Cardinal Rodriguez, the Pope’s senior advisor, and sending a delegation to visit the Vatican in the spring or summer to allow him to hear directly from low-income Catholics in America.

The purpose of the Soros/Vatican collaboration skewers political to influence the 2016 U.S. Elections, thus securing the presidency for Soros’ handpicked candidate, Hillary Clinton.

The grant will also support FPL’s media, framing, and public opinion activities, including conducting a poll to demonstrate that Catholic voters are responsive to the Pope’s focus on income inequality, and earning media coverage that drives the message that being “pro-family” requires addressing growing inequality. By harnessing the Papal visit to lift up the Pope’s searing critique of what he calls “an economy of exclusion and inequality” and his dismissal of “trickle down” theories, PICO and FPL will work to build a bridge to a larger conversation about bread-and-butter economic concerns and shift national paradigms and priorities in the run-up to the 2016 presidential campaign.

The Soros’ foundation clearly views Pope Francis as an important ally in the Soros income inequality socialist movement and in the run up to the 2016 U.S. election. Notice how the radical leftists in the Soros reframe the words pro family as “growing inequality.” This grant description highlights how the left hijacks language and exploits it for its own radical political advantage. Its partner in promoting the transformational lang uage is the leftist media.

Pope Francis and Cardinal Rodriguez Maradiaga


Another fascinating nugget in the Soros board meeting notes exposes its cozy relationship with Cardinal Rodriguez Maradiaga, the Vice Pope, and close confidante of Pope Francis. Cardinal Oscar Maradiaga of Honduras is described by the Soros operatives as ‘using his influence’ within the Vatican to promote the Soros radical economic inequality narrative. Clearly, Maradiaga has been identified by the Soros empire as a key player in the global radical income redistribution movement. Soros’ team knows that Maradiaga will happily promote this initiative within the Vatican and, most importantly, with Pope Francis, his close friend.

Who is PICO, the $650,000 grant recipient who will organize activities to engage the Pope on economic and racial justice activities? According to KeyWiki, PICO is

PICO, a progressive national network of faith-based organizations. Like health care reform, this newest PICOinitiative aims to redistribute wealth by demanding that “faith leaders step into the big banks’ boardrooms.”

PICO National Network received a $600,000 grant from Soros’ Open Society Institute. PICO was founded in 1972 by John Baumann, a Jesuit priest trained in Saul Alinsky community organizing in Chicago in the 1960s. It was later patterned after COPS, a San Antonio, Texas project of Alinsky’s Industrial Areas Foundation.

The Open Society Institute describes PICO as “a network of congregation-based community organizations which brings the voices of people of faith and faith leaders to the public debate on national priorities,” and mentions other Soros funding beyond the main grant.

Soros tracks and funds its Vatican influence through PICO, among others. Open Society Foundation(OSF) recognizes that money spent at the Vatican is money well spent toward the global socialist Soros agenda. They’ve identified Cardinal Oscar Maradiaga as a sympathetic and willing promote the globalist cause. He will be a powerful ally and sympathetic ear to the Soros agenda.

Another key organization that is financially supported by Soros is the FPL standing for Faith in Public Life. FPL is given its marching orders in the grant. It also reveals the manipulation and stagecraft employed by the Left to skewer public opinion. OSF shockingly admits that the polling results by FPL are preordained by Soros, as set forth in the grant:

FPL’s media, framing, and public opinion activities, including conducting a poll to demonstrate that Catholic voters are responsive to the Pope’s focus on income inequality, and earning media coverage that drives the message that being “pro-family” requires addressing growing inequality.

There you go. FPL got its marching orders from its funder to conduct a poll and demonstrate that Catholic voters support Pope Francis on income inequality. Would you ever trust a poll again after seeing the collusion and connivance of the Leftist Soros philanthropy?

Who is FPL, otherwise known as Faith in Public Life? The innocuous and religious sounding organization is another radical leftist Soros funded organization that drives the left’s agenda in the faith community. In 2011 the American Thinker exposed the individuals behind FPL and their leftist organization.

Who could be against an organization that innocuously calls itself “faith in public life.” FPL is yet another of hundreds of Soros funded satellite organizations masquerading as well-meaning philanthropies which in reality promote a radical economic agenda of anti-capitalism and global redistribution.

How fortunate for Soros that he has a new found popular partner, who will promote the leftist agenda using the merciful strong arm tactics of the papacy. Catholics serve as a huge and influential voting block in the U.S. election. For Soros, using the head of the Catholic Church to influence this key voting block is reflecting in the OSF strategic planning notes. This is not the first time that the unholy alliance of Soros and the Vatican successfully collaborated on a political project.

In 2015, the Soros operatives, embedded in the Vatican, directed Pope Francis’ Environmental Agenda, by delivering for Soros and the UN, an Apostolic Exhortation on Climate Change, and a prized papal endorsement of the UN Sustainable Development Goals and the Pope’s apostolic blessing on the Paris Climate Treaty. Soros won the environmental trifecta sealed and delivered by Pope Francis.

With the Soros-driven Environmental Deliverables now achieved by Pope Francis, it is now time to turn to item #2 on the Soros radical socialist agenda: global redistribution of wealth. Apparently, Soros knows that once again Pope Francis will assist in promoting the Soros socialist agenda.

Stay tuned, Catholics, for contrived polling data that reflects your overwhelming support for more global and carbon taxes to redistribute your income more equally. Soros will use the Vatican to promote Hillary, his hand-picked presidential candidate.

You’ve been forewarned.

Remnant columnist, Elizabeth Yore, served on the Heartland Institute Delegation that traveled to the Vatican in April 2015 to urge Pope Francis to re-examine his reliance on UN population control proponents who promote climate change.

DCLeaks Bombshell: The Soros/Francis Alliance Confirmed
Written by Elizabeth Yore



Today, the Catholic Church assumes the degrading role of a kind of simpering courtier
in the kingdom of the New World Order." - Christopher A. Ferrara

The drip, drip, drip of more leaked Soros’ Open Society Foundation (OSF) documents surfaced in the DCLeaks website to illustrate the ongoing unholy alliance between George Soros and Pope Francis. The Pope appears in the weekly OSF reports as the subject of laudatory and strategic accounts of papal pronouncements and actions promoting Soros’ ‘new normal’ of massive Muslim migration in Europe. While Francis seems oblivious, even the DCLeaks hackers recognize the treacherous and manipulative Soros as a monstrous global threat. DCLeaks introduces its infamous subject accordingly:

“George Soros drives more than 50 global and regional programs and foundations. Soros is named as the architect and sponsor of almost every revolution and coup around the world for the last 25 years. Soros is an oligarch sponsoring Democratic party, Hillary Clinton, hundreds of politicians all over the world. This website is designed to look at restricted documents of George Soros’ Open Society Foundation. It represents work plans, strategies, priorities and other activities of Soros. These documents shed light on one of the most influential network operating worldwide.”

These internal OSF documents also illuminate Pope Francis as the nascent advocate for the Soros mass migration scheme, as he weekly champions European Muslim migration from behind 39 foot Vatican walls. This massive wall was erected by his predecessor, Pope Leo IV, following an attack by Muslim Saracen pirates who damaged St. Peter’s in 846. The intractable Francis defense of Islam defies both the historical record and spiritual teaching of the Catholic Church.

Over the centuries, aggressive bloody Muslim invasions informed papal teaching. Pope Callixtus III denounced Islam as a “diabolical sect.” Pius II warned against Muhammad as a “false prophet,” and Pope Eugene condemned “the abominable sect of Mahomet.” In the 16th century, Pope Leo X described the Muslims as replacing the light of salvation with “totally unyielding blindness.” Modern day Popes, such as Pius XI described the “darkness of Islam.” Pope Francis surely relegates these predecessors and the great Doctor of the Church, St. Thomas Aquinas’ description of Islam as “diabolical” to the ash heap of unenlightened bigotry.

Among hacked documents is an OSF memo focusing on Soros’ International Migration Initiative which asserts that Europe’s refugee crisis should be accepted as a “new normal,” and that the refugee crisis means “new opportunities” for Soros’ organization to influence immigration policies on a global scale. Soros doles out millions to influence massive global migration, as he recognizes that the European crisis presents “new opportunities” for his New World Order (NWO), where every crisis is exploited and justified as an excuse to eliminate borders, undermine sovereign governments, and degrade individual liberty, in exchange for a one world government governed by the world’s elites and oligarchs.

Soros admits that he is heavily involved in the migrant crisis and seeks to eradicate national borders through this crisis. Similar to his U.S. funded radical groups, Black Lives Matter, Occupy Wall Street, ACORN, the Climate Change Movement, the European migration crisis is fueled and agitated by Soros millions to destabilize democracies by creating internal chaos.

In the first two years of his papacy, Francis joined forces with Soros operatives embedded in the Vatican to push for global climate change initiatives at the U.N. Mission Accomplished! Next up, on the Soros New World Order (NWO) agenda lurks mass refugee migration which is well underway in Europe, and soon to flood U.S. shores. Once again, Francis demonstrates his partiality and adherence to the Soros leftist world view.

What do these DCLeaks documents reveal? Soros’ team tracks and applauds every move of his papal ally. The Open Society researchers provide weekly updates to the Soros team on Pope Francis and his pro migration pronouncements and actions.



The website pulls back the Soros iron curtain to reveal the power and influence of Pope Francis to promote the Soros policy of massive Muslim migration and infiltration in Europe.

Below are some of the many entries of weekly Soros updates on Pope Francis and his public and vocal stance on Muslim European migration. Note the enthusiasm and adulation by which they report on Pope Francis’ support of migration:

EUROPEAN CRISIS: Key Developments of the Past 48 Hours,

March 16, 2016

Vatican

“Pope Francis—Refugees Stranded “Because So Many Doors & So Many Hearts Are Closed": Pope Francis today slammed governments who close their doors to refugees, calling for a more compassionate approach to "people living through a real and dramatic exile, far from their countries, with the ruins of their own homes still in their eyes, fear in their hearts and often suffering from the loss of people dear to them. How is it possible that so much suffering can be inflicted on men, women and innocent children,” he said. These people "are there, at frontiers.”

Francis willingly provides the voice of moral outrage for the Soros-driven migrant crisis, as he did in the climate change arena. One especially odious weekly Soros report notes Francis’ politicization of one of the most ancient and sacred Easter Triduum Catholic rituals, the washing of feet. The Soros team was acutely aware of the important political significance of Francis using a holy event to promote his political message:

March 23, 2016

Vatican

“Pope to Wash Feet of Refugees in Easter Ritual: Pope Francis will visit a refugee center to wash the feet of 12 young refugees in an Easter Week ritual. A Vatican official said the choice of the center was highly symbolic given the current migration crises. "He means to tell us that at this historic time, we must pay attention to the weakest and that we are called to restore their dignity without falling into subterfuge,” the official said. The fact that most of the residents aren't Catholic "is an even more eloquent" sign that respecting one another is the best path to peace. "By washing the refugees' feet, Pope Francis is asking for respect for each one of them.” The ritual is meant to be a gesture of service, and re-enacts a rite Jesus performed on his apostles before being crucified delights in his every word and move.”

Francis knows he enjoys worldwide attention as he coyly chooses symbolic gestures to underscore and promote his leftist politics. As the entry below indicates, the Vatican acknowledges that Francis’ choice of Muslim migrants is intentional to send a strong political message. The Vicar of Christ is carrying out the tradition of Jesus Christ who washed the feet of his Apostles before his crucifixion. Rather, Francis consciously chooses to wash the feet of primarily Muslims who do not believe in Jesus Christ. Islam teaches its followers that Catholics are the Infidel. Yet, Francis leaps at the opportunity to send a political message which crassly exploits a profoundly sacred Catholic tradition for trendy political purposes.

THE VATICAN
“Pope Francis Slams Europe's ‘Anesthetized Conscience’ Over Refugees.”

While Soros is clearly incapable of arousing the world’s conscience, his papal partner serves this key role as moral arbiter for leftist politics. Francis aims his ad hominem attacks on those that would dare to disagree with him about the migration issue by blasting “anesthetized consciences.”

April 6, 2016

THE VATICAN

- "Francis, the son of Italian immigrants to Argentina, has been outspoken about Europe’s moral obligation to welcome refugees and his visit to Greece will likely embarrass EU leaders already under fire from human rights groups over the deportations.
- Some EU diplomats see the papal activism on refugees as an important counterpoint to populist anti-immigrant voices in Europe.”

Francis is the embodiment of “papal activism.” First, as a global warming alarmist, now as a migrant refugee activist. The Pope cheapens the gravity of the papal moral voice to promote the Muslim European migration, as he did with the Soros/UN faux climate change movement. Remember, that lofty theological tenet in Laudato Si, turn down your air conditioners?

April 15, 2016

THE VATICAN

“For Pope Francis, Displacement Is the “Most Important Moral Choice” for West: By visiting the detention center in Moria, on Lesvos, and by breaking bread with people Europe is threatening to deport, Pope Francis will make his strongest statement yet on migrant rights, an issue he has made perhaps the single most important of his revolutionary tenure.”

Soros correctly captures the Francis Papacy as a “revolutionary tenure.” Nothing has changed with Islam over the centuries as the modern day beheadings and massacres, in the name of Allah, persist. Nothing has changed except that the occupant in the Chair of St. Peter who in the face of barbaric brutality, inaccurately opines that "all of us together, are children of the same God—Muslims, Hindus, Catholics, Copts, Evangelical, brothers and sisters—we want to live in peace, integrated.”

Below is another OSF entry about a typical Pope Francis stream of consciousness scolding, while he also channels Martin Luther King:

May 6, 2016

POLITICS

"I Dream of a Europe Where Being a Migrant Is Not a Crime”—Pope Francis: Pope Francis called today for Europe to adopt more welcoming policies toward migrants and lamented what he called the Continent’s declining spirit of unity, maintaining pressure on the EU at a ceremony attended by several top European leaders. “I dream of a Europe where being a migrant is not a crime but a summons to greater commitment on behalf of the dignity of every human being,” he said.

- Francis praised a previous generation of European leaders for creating a “bastion of peace” after WWII, but said the “desire to create unity seems to be fading” as Europeans “are tempted to yield to our own selfish interests and to consider putting up fences here and there.”
- “The identity of Europe is, and always has been, a dynamic and multicultural identity,” the pope said. “It is not enough simply to settle individuals geographically: the challenge is that of a profound cultural integration."

Europe a dynamic multicultural identity? Recently, Hungary Prime Minister Viktor Orban accused pro-immigration non-governmental organizations NGOs of “drawing a living from the immigration crisis,” singling out those funded by Mr. Soros.

Mr. Orban disclosed in an interview that immigration and multiculturalism are endangering Europe’s “Christian roots” and creating “parallel societies.” Europeans should “stick to our Christian values” and “Europe can be saved,” but only if they “take seriously the traditions, the Christian roots and all the values that are the basis of the civilization of Europe.” This profoundly Christian sentiment will never be echoed by the present Vicar of Christ.

In the face of the massive Muslim migrant invasion of Christian Europe, Pope Francis remains largely silent about European Christian values and brutal Muslim attacks on Christians. He prefers the political language of the UN and the Soros’ new world order.

Breaking news: Francis states that welcoming Muslim refugees is the greatest protection against terrorism. Really, Holy Father? Ask the people of France and Germany if they are safer after the Muslim refugee invasion. No doubt, Soros’ OSF will enter a gleeful report on the Pope’s latest pronouncement.

Francis infamously weighed in on Donald Trump’s position on building a wall. "A person who thinks only about building walls, wherever they may be, and not building bridges, is not Christian. This is not the gospel," the Pope told journalists who asked his opinion on Trump's proposals to stop illegal immigrants.

This papal NWO alliance with Soros on Muslim migration might explain why the USCCB lined up with their hands in the federal contract cookie jar for $91 million in grants to resettle 10,000 migrants, nearly all Muslims in the U.S. in FY16.

This papal NWO alliance with Soros, who strongly supports Hillary Clinton with a $25 million campaign donation, might explain why the USCCB is remaining coyly mute during the presidential election, despite Clinton’s rabid pro-abortion stance.

This papal NWO alliance with Soros might explain why the USCCB is standing on the election sidelines because Hillary Clinton promises to carry out her largest donor, George Soros’ migration initiative by resettling another one million Muslim migrants into the U.S. if she becomes President. Imagine the massive federal contracts for the Catholic Bishops!

Migration pays very well, and walls are only for the Vatican.

You can locate searchable, files at the DCLeaks website., which describe Soros and his network of NGOs as having “slaves spill blood of millions and millions people just to make him even more rich.”
