Steve Bannon
This is the primal scream of a dying regime. Pray for our enemies because we're going medieval on these people. I got a free shot. All these networks lying about the people. The people have had a belly full of it. I know you don't like hearing that. I know you try to do everything in the world to stop that, but you're not going to stop it. It's going to happen.

Frank Walker
And where do people like that go.

Steve Bannon
To share the big lie?

Frank Walker
MAGA MEDIA I wish in my soul.

Steve Bannon
I wish that any of these people had a conscience. Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose? If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved.

War ROOM here's your host, Stephen K. Banner.

Frank Walker
Wednesday 30th of July, Anno Domini 2025. Let's go straight on with the show because we've got a lot of stor stories and developments to go through. With you today. I'll be joined as ever by Frank Walter, Frank walker from Canon 212, and Jenny Holland as the show progresses. Frank, let's start with this speech that Pope Leo gave where he says that Catholic migrants save countries that welcome them from spiritual desertification. Spiritual desertification. My first reaction on seeing this is that actually it's preaching the gospel that saves us from spiritual desertification. Talk us through the who was his audience? What was he saying? And let's break down what he said because I think there were some signals in this speech that will very much confirm what the War Room has been warning about since we started doing this Wednesday 6pm show at the beginning of the pontificate. But Frank, hand over to you right now, tell us about what Pope Leo was saying.
- [02:15]
Stephen K. Bannon
I think that he's talking mainly to the it seems like to the immigrants and this side of the world, not so much the Islamic immigrants, but here we have Hispanic immigrants who come from a Catholic background. I don't know how Catholic they are. In fact, I think if they actually were Catholic, then they would not be so in demand because they would vote Republican if they were Catholics. They don't want faithful Catholics. But that's what he's referring to about spiritual decertification certification. They act as if that problem in the world where people are losing the faith is something that's just sort of happening. It's just happening in the world. It's not their fault. It has nothing to do with them. And these Catholic migrants are going to come here and they're going to rejuvenate us spiritually. But what he is referring to Here is that this migration is of the new religion. And these migrants, just like liberation theology, which is the communization of Catholicism, they're taking illegal immigration and turning into this new religion. And so they are like the poor and they give us a closeness to God. They're going to fix us spiritually. They're going to take away the spiritual desert for all of us. They're like, they're divine. In fact, their divine presence is absolutely necessary to our salvation. That's what he's saying.
- [03:46]
Frank Walker
What does it say about the state of the, the Catholic Church, Frank Walker, that the supposed, the purported pope at the top of the apex has so little regard for Catholics in Western country and their ability to move the culture forward? Listen to this. One of many, one of many extracts in this speech. And we really could spend the whole show going through it. Listen to this. With their spiritual enthusiasm and vitality, they can help revitalize ecclesial communities that have become rigid and weighed down where spiritual desertification is advancing at an alarming rate. Well, I, I highlighted the word rigid there because attentive followers of the war room will know that rigid was the favorite. Go to criticism of whom?
- [04:49]
Stephen K. Bannon
Pope Francis. Pope Francis not like the rigid because you can't stand for anything. You cannot, you cannot be a firm believer. You cannot be a fundamentalist. You have to be pliable. You have to be flexible and open to his new relig religion. And he's saying that these migrants are not that they're Catholics. They're not those rigid Catholics. They're this new religion. They're going to revitalize us, take away this rigid desertification that we have here. They have a faith beyond what our eyes can see. See the people who invented this fake religion, they're atheists. They have no religion. And they look at Catholicism as this, you know, as this trick. And so they think they can give us a new religion and we'll believe it on faith we can't see, but we'll have faith in what they're telling us. They don't have to make any sense. It doesn't have to be true. It doesn't have to have any results, but that's what we're supposed to believe because we're the kind of dupes that will believe what they tell us. And he even moves in this speech here to no nukes, global warming and fixing holy inequality.
- [06:04]
Frank Walker
You know, if you didn't have the speech here in front of you folks, you would think that what Frank Walker is saying here is an exaggeration. But it really is. This is a reading direct from the text. So here are some, some of the extracts. Many migrants, refugees and displaced persons, what we in the trade call invaders, are privileged witnesses of hope. They're not common or garden witnesses of hope. FRANK Walker they're privileged. They are privileged witnesses of hope. I hope you're feeling the privilege here. And he emphasized that their presence should be recognized and appreciated as a true divine blessing, an opportunity to open oneself to the grace of God who gives new energy and hope to his Church. The courage and tenacity bear heroic testimony to a faith that sees beyond what our eyes can see and gives them the strength to defy death on the various contemporary migration routes. It's all there. This is pure bergoglia, right? If we'd have read this two months ago, three months ago, you would have thought this was a classic Pope Francis speech. It raises up and idealizes those who are without and by its tacit ignoring of the Catholic faithful living in their own communities, who aren't considered at all in this. FRANK Walker the actual pastoral care of, of Catholics in their own countries isn't even an, it's not even an afterthought in this where we are not even considered. We are just expected to pay, right, to pay the taxes that go to welcoming, to pay the taxes that go on, education for children who are here illegally, health care, sheltering, hotels and what have you with. We're expected to pay and we're not even given an acknowledgement this. And then I think the most offensive thing here is that is the line migrants. One of the most offensive things migrants and refugees remind the Church of her pilgrim dimension, perpetually journeying toward her final homeland, sustained by a hope that is a theological virtue. Before I hand back Frank to you for your thoughts on this, I just want to point out that the sleight of hand that is involved here and the work that it takes to do this is absolutely astonishing because the effective conceit here, the, the attempt that, that Pope Leo is, is trying to hoodwink us with is, is there, is, is putting a theological veneer on what is illegally breaking and entering into another people's country and living there at their expense. And then you have. This is really quite outrageous. Not only is that condoned here and considered to be an active act of God, it's padded out with this cod theological language and these cod theological platitudes which have no actual bearing on the, on the case look, their courage and tenacity bear heroic testimony to a faith that sees beyond what our eyes can see. The gall is absolutely quite astonishing there.
- [09:55]
Stephen K. Bannon
Yeah. And you're right, it is a sleight of hand. It's making a religion out of these globalist goals. And there is money involved in this country. They're trying to turn the electorate into something that will promote their socialism. And over in Europe, they're Islamicizing Europe, which is something that will never be able to be undone without the power of a strong Catholic Church. He even quotes to make this religion. He cracks the Whip. He invokes St. Augustine. He says that we'll become worldly. He invokes St. Paul. He says, we're not going to be subject to Christ if we don't follow his religion here. And then at the end, as Francis always used to do, he invokes Our Lady. I think that he's better at this than Francis. I think he's even better. I think there are several things about this Pope that are more frightening than Francis because he's here to sort of solidify the religion. He's taking this and making it a religion. In all of his speeches. I mean, sometimes he's even very candid about it. He talks about peace, peace, peace all the time. He says these, these illegals are going towards integral human development, whatever that's supposed to mean. You know, he has to bring in their canned words. What does that mean? I think it just means, like, more funding and compliance. So it's. I think he's more frightening than even, than Francis and more effective. And he does not have a pushback. He's the people. There's no longer a resistance in the press. If they are resistance and they push back, they're just getting quiet. They're quiet. And this thing he did just now with all of these hundreds of thousands of young people, he looks like God going through St. Peter's Square. I mean, the production value of these events, I don't see anybody countering it anymore. And I still hear the same, you know, worshipful stuff from people who used to be resistant Catholics that. We had that with Francis. We don't have that anymore, and it's not coming back.
- [11:55]
Frank Walker
But give me a final word observation on this point, will you? Because that's absolutely correct. Where is the outrage from all these traditional Catholic pockets in media and in NGOs, where, where, where these. Why aren't they speaking? Had Bergalu has said this, they'd be pushing this up as their leading article, and there's just basically relative silence. Tell me why you think that is.
- [12:20]
Stephen K. Bannon
Well, I think it's all for the same reason, the reason that this is part of Leo's religion. It's Leo's job, like Cardinal McCarrick said about Francis years ago, is to be a Pied Piper. We're the rats. The Pied Piper has to lead us in the direction that the globalist rulers want us to go, no matter how ridiculous this religion sounds. And the press was not actively corralled into this project the first time around. This time around, whoever makes decisions about the press, whoever makes decisions about the people who have the most reach, has made sure, has tried very hard to make sure. There is a burgeoning movement of different Catholics out there that are trying to resist, but they don't have the reach that the other people had before. And I think it's about money, it's about people at the highest levels of society making strategic differences in the way that they approach after Francis.
- [13:16]
Frank Walker
I think that's why it is very much frank, the confirmation of what we were warning about from the very beginning, that prevost Pope Leo is more dangerous than Bergoglio, than Pope Francis, because he's more intelligent and therefore more subtle. But as I say that, you know, all of the, all of the traditional, conservative, traditional pockets of Catholicism that had sort of made their names fighting against Bergoglio would have been up in arms had Bergoglio said this. Leo says it, and he's got that nice little red velveteen mozzetta. And they all say, oh, oh, look at the mozzetta. We have a traditional pope. Give, give, give Leo a chance. Which I think just shows the. Their absolute imperative of not to challenge the grift. Stand by, because we're now going to have a little look at one of the most astonishing articles. If that wasn't bad enough for you, one of the most astonishing developments that Jenny will be recount, Jenny Holland will be recounting to us of this is now on the UK government website, pushing out advertisements, job advertisements for people with PhDs in Sharia law. So this is what happens when you have unrestrained, when you do nothing about the invasion. And interestingly, just to. To go to the point that we were discussing earlier, Pope Leo is specifically talking about, effectively the invasion in America coming from Latin American Catholic countries. The zero reference to what's actually the situation here in Europe where he is now based, which has largely a very much Islamic phenomenon. Since Trump was sworn in, his administration has made enormous progress at a breakneck pace. But don't forget, while they're moving mountains for the good of the nation. They can't also take your personal savings into account. You have to do that. Just text Bannon B A N O N to the number 989-898 and Birchgold will send you a free info kit on Gold.

Jenny, you were hearing the discussion I was having with Frank Walker just now about Pope Leo's speech, taking without missing a beat, the radical pro globalist invasion agenda of his predecessor. But now let's dig a little deeper into what's going on in uk because this is a development, a story which literally, if I had not seen it, I wouldn't have believed it. And by, you know, by looking at this, one might reasonably think all is lost in the scepterdial. So tell us, Jenny, what this is an official government, the Department for Work and Pensions. There's official. It's an official government UK Civil service department advising, advertising for a job with a requirement of a PhD in Sharia law. Right. Tell. Tell me more.
- [17:30]
Jenny Holland
Yes, it's actually the UK equivalent of the Social Security Administration. It's the largest civil service bureaucracy. It administers pensions, unemployment benefits, child benefit and all sorts of other things. Job and help with finding jobs. Now, there was a little bit of damage control today on behalf of the dwp, I suppose the Independent reported they were at pains to point out it's not a job with the Department of Oregon Pensions. It's a job with a Muslim community center. I fail to be reassured by this equivocation because I fail to understand why they need a Sharia court. Sharia law, administrative administrator of any sort in any part of the United Kingdom. I think a lot of people have only woken up to the extent of the, let's say, political influence of the especially Pakistani immigrant community here in the UK quite recently. But actually this has been a problem for, in general for many decades and specifically with the Sharia court issue, it's been a problem going back about 20 years. In January of this year, Ayaan Hirsi Ali actually gave a very interesting interview with Sky News Australia, in which she pointed out that this, that people have been aware of this in the UK since 2006 and the reporting in that segment indicated that there were 85 Islamic courts in the UK as far as, you know, as far as anyone could ascertain. It turns out in 2008, just to give you further background to see how deep this problem is, none other than the Archbishop of Canterbury, who at the time was Dr. Rowan Williams, spoke to BBC Radio 4 and nonchalantly said that Sharia courts were an unavoidable fact of life in the United Kingdom and that Sharia law even would help maintain social cohesion. So when you were just speaking there about Prevost and his blessing of the illegal immigrant invasion in the United States, you know, we have, we have 20 years on you guys over here in the UK and it's just another example, as if we need any more examples of how out of touch elites are. And that includes all the church elites, both Catholic and Church of England, with the public sentiment, someone like the Archbishop of Canterbury and even the Pope. And I'm being generous here, Ben, you would probably disagree with me, but I'm being very generous in saying they seem to think that we still live in, I don't know, 1980 or 1975, when, you know, the questions of integration were framed very differently and the numbers were very different. We no longer live in that world. You know, in, in a year, in the last few months, we've seen extensive reporting on the Pakistani rape gangs and all sorts of other political corruption in predominantly Pakistani districts in the north of England specifically. And you have to ask yourself, at what point is the government, the civil service and the political leaders going to face the anger and the justifiable concern amongst British people about how far the influence of the Muslim religion goes in a supposedly secular Western democracy there?
- [21:28]
Frank Walker
They're never going to deal with it at any point. That's the only part, actually. What you said before about the terms of debate having changed since the 80s onwards is a very apt point. It's absolutely true. But that's why the people who I think have stabbed Great Britain in the back, the British establishment, have stabbed the United Kingdom and the British people in the back and forced something on them that they never had permission or consent from the people to do. Lied about it, continuously lying to this day. And when you do get pockets now of people resisting and trying to push back, they're put in prison for two and a half years for retweeting, for tweeting. Right, that is their response of dealing of dialogue and debate with the people who actually pay the taxes in Great Britain. It's suppression. They'll dialogue with anyone who's coming into the country illegally or of course they will, because the same thing that we saw in the first part of the show with Pope Leo, these people will prostrate themselves because they're liberals. There is something in the DNA of a liberal progressive that hates and scorns oneself and one's own culture and puts on a pedestal that which is foreign and different, I think is a form of self hatred and self loathing. But it's exactly the same phenomenon both in the Church of England and in the Catholic Church. These people that they adore and they will prostrate themselves, prostrate themselves before illegal invaders and the people whose actual the care of souls that they actually have responsibility for, they're invisible, they're not to be seen and they're just treated contempt. They're worse than visible, they are treated with contempt.
- [23:31]
Jenny Holland
They're treated like the enemy in some instances, like the woman who's still doing time for a slightly intemperate tweet that she took down of her own accord and she got a heftier prison sentence than men who have actually been convicted of sex crimes against children and young women. And bear in mind, so the Sharia court thing, I mean, the defenders are going to sort of obfuscate by saying, oh no, no. I mean these are advisory, these provide only guidance and that, that's all well and good and I'm sure there is some evidence to that to back that up, but there's also a lot of evidence, just even in common sense, that in communities that are predominantly Muslim and have very little interaction with the British culture and the British state, other than perhaps welfare payments and, you know, basic services, the. They might as well be living in a Muslim country, they might as well still be living in Pakistan. And what does Sharia law? What, what are the main reasons for its application in Britain? According to Iron Here cle, it is to deal with matters of marriage, divorce, inheritance and custody of children. And guess what? Women don't fare so well in those matters. They also sanction polygamy, which is illegal. But again, according to Iron here CLD in this interview in Sky News in January, there have been instances in a surprise to no one that where the Islamic courts were allowing things that were directly against British law.
- [25:07]
Frank Walker
And here's the, here's the, here's the paradox. Whilst the British Civil Service, on its official government website is advertising for roles that require a PhD. I think in Sharia law, Christians are being arrested for praying in public. For praying in public. That is the UK for you today. And if anyone wants to accept a face value, the mealy mouth defence put out by the Department for Worker Pensions that it's just carrying the advertisement of a job of this Muslim organization. I'll believe that when I see them carrying job advertisements for the Society for the Protection of Unborn children or Catholic NGOs asking for putting out job advertisements requiring, I don't know, a PhD in canon law from a, from a pontifical university. Of course it's a load of nonsense. This is one of those indications weather vanes that illustrate to you where a country is going, right? And democracy is a numbers game as we've spoken about on this show. And the Muslims have the numbers and the sincere devout Christians no longer do because we've had the faith robbed from us by our pastors and it's been replaced by this environmental pro globalist approach and that that is the nature of facing the uk. America still has time to turn it around. As I say repeatedly folks, stay with us. We'll be back in two short minutes.

War Room. Here's your host, Stephen K. Band.

Frank Walker
Welcome back. Well, within the sphere of Catholic culture, there's a particular Marian shrine, a shrine devoted to the Blessed Virgin Mary that has always captured the hearts and the imaginations of the faithful. It's one of the principal Marian shrines in Europe. And I'm talking today about the. The shrine of Lourdes in France. This is a shrine where the Virgin Mary appeared towards the end of the 19th century, I think it was, to St Bernadette Soubirous. And a miraculous fountain of water was produced as part of those apparitions that from that day forward were considered to have healing properties. So within the Catholic world, there's been this constant pilgrimage, especially of sick people, to Lourdes praying for a miracle. What happened this week was that the 72nd officially recognized miracle was declared as having taken place about some 16 years ago in Lourdes. Jenny Holland, you've been following this. Break this down. Tell us what happened, what was the nature of the miracle that has been verified here, and then we'll go on from there.
- [32:19]
Jenny Holland
Sure. Yeah. So this woman, this Italian woman, was suffering from the degenerative neurological disease als, which has no cure and is essentially fatal, eventually. And she was. She went to Lourdes with her husband on sort of a organized trip with a charity. And at the point she traveled, she was already struggling to swallow and to breathe. So she was very advanced. Her disease was very advanced. And she heard voices, a female voice. And, you know, the. The. The end result of this was when she returned home, she was able. She began to heal. And this was attributed to Lourdes and the water and the female voice, Mary, I suppose, intervening and miraculously healing her. And when she went back to Italy, Southern Italy. Catania. No, not Catania. I forget the exact location in the south of Italy. She was.
- [33:25]
Frank Walker
Basilicata.
- [33:27]
Jenny Holland
Basilicata. Thank you. The local church administration sort of supported her claims, and they were investigated, and there was no other source of this miraculous recovery. Now, I was. I was happy you sent me this story because the idea of miracles to me is. Is very new. I mean, it's not new exactly, because I grew up in Catholic countries and have Catholic grandparents and whatnot, but I grew up in such a secular world, and my father in particular, who had grown up Catholic, was anti. Anti the idea of miracles because he was pro science. So this is my background. And when I read about these stories, and I think when you hear there is no other possible explanation for them, I personally think, with all humility, that these are the sort of things that Catholic, the Catholic, The Catholic Church's PR teams should be spending a lot more time on, because I think that there is a longing in secular society among young people. Especially those young people who are coming to the Catholic Church now to flee sort of the modern world. There's a longing for this idea of re. Enchantment. And I think these would be, not to be very crude and glib about it, but these are an excellent PR exercise to say, look, this is what can happen with the power of faith and the power of prayer and, and devotion to Mary and to any, any skeptic, you know, be skeptical. I'm fine with that. That's a great, it's a great trait. But anyone who's going to defend contemporary culture and say that these things, these miraculous events are throwbacks or archaic or, or phantasmagorical or whatever, you know, made up and imaginary, I would ask them to explain to me how modern, supposedly enlightened, supposedly scientific society has gotten entirely on board. All of the institutions, all the pediatric and medical institutions have gotten on board with the idea that a child can be born in the wrong body. And if that's not a flight of fancy and a far more damaging one, then I don't know what it what is.
- [35:47]
Frank Walker
That's a perfect point to show how, how people can have imagination when they want to have. So the, the story here is that the International Medical Committee at Lourdes voted 2017 in favor out of its 21 members. And they analyzed this, these group of doctors, obviously, and they said that it was unexplained, complete and lasting cure. So with that two thirds majority required by the Church, they've officially sanctioned that as far as science is concerned, there is no rational explanation for this. Therefore, if the Catholic Church wants to say this is a miracle due to the Virgin Mary's intercession, the Catholic Church is free to do so now. Since the days of Benedict the 14th, the criteria for defining miraculous healing are these just for folks information. It has to be sudden, complete, lasting, medically inexplicable, and not attributable to treatment or gradual recovery. And that's been for centuries. The criteria used to determine you get many, many of these 72 formally confirmed miracles. They're like thousands of stories of healings which perhaps won't satisfy one or the other of these criteria. Therefore, they don't go forward for full official approval. I had a friend who died of this ALS a couple of years ago in his late 60s, early 70s. It's a horrific degenerative disease. And he once said to me that basically every single day, he died a little bit every single day, because before the stage that he ended up in a wheelchair. And then on the hospital bed with artificial respiration every day was a benchmark of something he was no longer able to do by himself, like combing his hair, brush his teeth, cut his food. And as the disease progressed. So it is an absolute horrific disease. And the lady here, this Italian lady who's a mother, she has the habit of a nurse in the photos because she now goes back to Lourdes to assist with the care of all as a volunteer of the sick and faithful who passed through. But she's a mother, she's a woman, a married woman with her own adult children. And she basically said that she went there, she'd always wanted to go to Lourdes, but she only got the chance to go with her husband once. She was sort of in it at somewhat advanced years and in the wheelchair because the disease was already working, working its toll on her. And that she descended into the water, she felt she heard. She doesn't say it's the Virgin Mary, she said. She just said she heard a woman's voice saying three times, do not be afraid, as she was lowered into the. In. Into the water. And she said she felt a sharp. A sharp, I think a hot pain in her legs. But she didn't say anything. And then her husband. Then she went back to her home, and again she heard the same voice saying, tell your husband. Tell your husband. So in the first time in years, she told him what happened. And she basically stood up out of the wheelchair first you stood unaided for the first time in years. And then she told her priest, who told the bishop, who told the authorities, and there's no signs whatsoever of this degenerative disease. And I think you're right, Jenny. It is a. It is a sign of hope. Very different from what we're talking about in the first half of the show for first half of the show of what Pope Leo calls witnesses of hope. I think these stories here are absolutely witnesses. I'd like to quote, if I may, because I think these are very beautiful words from the director of the sanctuary, the rector of the sanctuary, Father Michael dubonay, who said, we often say if I saw a miracle, I would believe, but the truth is, if I believe, I can see miracles. And he reflected, this healing is not just a story from the past. It's a living testimony that continues to bear fruit. So that's a beautiful story, Jenny. Just. Do you have any final observations on that before we move on?
- [40:29]

I do, actually. I think that it's an interesting example of the wisdom of the folk and the common people. Like an ordinary Woman who is undergoing sort of the ultimate trial and ordeal. You know, I mean, back in the day, people used to undergo terrible physical ordeals all the time, and we were much more accustomed to it. But she's undergoing this terrible ordeal and she has this moment, you know, after being sort of. After suffering and. And being tried, essentially, she gets this moment of mercy and healing. And that's a universal story. I mean, if you go on Instagram, you can find lots of sort of new age people who are trying to recreate this very. This very idea that ordinary people can transcend material. Material pain and their material circumstances and ascend to something higher. So I just want to reiterate, there is a huge desire and a huge hunger for these kind of stories out there amongst ordinary people, including young people. And as usual, the. The high. The highest echelons of these institutions are the last to realize it because they're too tied up in their own ego games and their power plays, and they forget that the wisdom still lies with the people.

Yeah, the wisdom. Not only the wisdom, but also the faith. You said something before, Jenny, before moving on, I actually do want to come back to what you said. It was a throwaway comment, but it was actually very profound. And that is that Catholics for centuries have been scorned by the secular world because Catholics believe that the words of the priest, the pronunciation of the words of the priest at the mass, the consecration, then bread and wine are turned into the body and blood of Jesus Christ. People, you know, have laughed at Catholics for centuries, especially in predominantly Protestant cultures, for that belief. And yet. And yet this. This I. I think shows that God does have a poetic sense of humor. It is now required belief that from the appropriate words of a functionary of the state, the magical words, a man can be turned. Substance could be turned into a man can be turned into a woman, and a woman can be turned into a man just at the words of the state Feng shui with this signatory of a pen. A transformation so solid, you can even take that certificate and demand a change to your birth certificate.

Jenny Holland
Yes.

Frank Walker
And there's no. There's no real. There's no. There's no. There's no cognitive dissonance there. People can still at the same time laugh at Catholics believing in transubstantiation of the body and blood, of bread and wine into the body and blood, but they perfectly happy to accept transubstantiation when it comes to gender reassignment. That's a pretty profound point that you. That you just threw in there. Okay. Quick word once again from Birchgold and then we'll go to Frank Walker who's got some closing remarks today for the for this show about a scandal that reaches to the very height of the Jesuit order. POPE FRANCIS JESUIT ORDER One of the best ways to look after your savings is through diversification, particularly with gold from our trusted friends at Birch Gold Group.

Frank, tell me about Pedro Arrupe. He died in 1991. He was the general of the Jesuit order, right? Traditionally in common parlance considered to be second only to the pope himself. Tell me about this latest story, this sex abuse scandal.

Stephen K. Bannon
Well, yeah, he was the top Jesuit and he's the one who is credited for converting the Jesuits into an operation that was Catholic and that formed a lot of young people with good instruction in the good schools into sort of a gay communist apparatus, which is what it is today. And he was a mentor to Pope Francis and Pope Francis has him up for canonization. And this whole story is in the context of the fact that he's up for canonization. And there are many people that are like this, that are actually evil people that are up for canonization. That's why Jenny's story is so good to remember because that's a PR thing that came right from heaven. Heaven's PR still exists because they'll have to have a kit, they'll have to have a miracle for this guy Arupe and they're going to come up with one. Not a true one like that one, but some other one. There was a priest back in the other era where this was more open, that was in a camp. He molested a 14 year old. There were other accusations. A letter went to the head of the Jesuits, Father Rupe, asking them to not ordain him. It was ignored. And it's on record that record exists. And he went to be postponed and then ordained. They give him the psychiatric treatment and they put him In a high school. In the high school he was there a little bit. Parents keep writing letters about this priest, Father Dickerson, who became, was ordained. And at the high school he was thrown out. The head of the local, the Jesuit that was running these schools, he wrote about him too. And they sent him back to the psychiatric treatment which they used to give everybody there. And then they put him in a cathedral in Shreveport, which parents complained about there. So there's a chain of molestation, of rape, of boys following this guy everywhere he goes. Every time he goes to a new place, they don't tell him about the accusations, they just talk about it in the heights of the Jesuit order. And when he was kicked out of the, the cathedral at that point, they said, well, we need to give a guy a chance. Give him a chance. And they said that they offered him $10,000 for living expenses. And I don't. It doesn't say whether he got. Got him or not, but, you know, he was, he was sent eventually up to Nebraska where they didn't uncover this until this lawsuit recently came up in Louisiana. And it was around 2018, the time of the big report out of Pennsylvania, that they really uncovered all this. This guy Arupe is supposed to become a saint, and they're trying to be recommending that he doesn't happen. He eventually, I think he wasn't. I think he still was a priest until the day he died. I don't think they ever did anything about him.

This will be a litmus test. I think this case, one of many that we, that we're flagging up on the war room. This will be a litmus test to see what kind of pontificate inverted commas Pope Leo inverted commas is going to be pursuing. Right. There's no requirement, no expectation, no real great precedent that every single leader of the Jesuits is canonized. To canonize someone of a leader of a religious order who's not a founder is an exceptional, very rare act. And there being no requirement. Let's see if Pope Leo follows through on this. You know that it will be something to watch for. As you say, he was very close a mentor figure towards the late, unlamented Pope Francis. Just, just tell me one thing that. Just confirm for us, will you? One thing that you just mentioned in your analysis of this case. Did you say that this priest in Louisiana, who, who'd been, who'd been accused of sexually molesting two children was then sent after these accusations, was then sent to be a chaplain at a school?
- [49:45]
Stephen K. Bannon
Yeah.
- [49:45]
Frank Walker
Did I hear you, right, yes.
- [49:47]
Stephen K. Bannon
He worked at a high school and then when he was transferred to a cathedral, he went over to Loyola College and that's when he molested and, and raped a 17 year old student there. Even behind the sacristy. I mean, he was a, a real predator for a long, long, long time and he was ignored. It shows you the protected Jesuits, the power that they're tied into, the evil power that they're tied into going way back, you know, 50 years, like this case, they're just, they're like a protected class. And I don't think that situation has really changed. I think that let them scandalize them. Don't be scandalized against the church by these people. But look to what happened in Lourdes because you can't let people like this drive you out of your faith.

Frank Walker
These things are scandalous. They are absolutely obstacles in faith. But you know, nothing has changed. You asked rhetorically, has anything changed? Nothing has changed because we covered last week on the, on the show, the story of the, the rapist, the boy, the guy who'd raped a 16 year old boy repeatedly, who was there, who was shuffled off to a school and then promoted to be vice chance, excuse me, chancellor of the diocese. And we had the same story going on in the Vatican as well, in the Secretariat of State where a guy was found to have an overwhelming amount of child distributing as well. Distributing child porn. He was promoted in the, in the Vatican. So nothing sadly has changed. We'll be keep, we'll keep our cynical beady eyes on this. Frank, you're absolutely right. The beauty of what took place in Lourdes is what we should be concentrating and not the diabolical words of the actions of the hierarchs in the Catholic Church. Frank Walker, I thank you folks. Please go to canon 212 every day, Google it, put it, type it out in full. It is suppressed by the Google algorithms. Thanks also to Jenny Holland for coming on the show. Jenny, I don't have time to do the social media bit for you today, but we'll catch up again with you on Wednesday, 6pm of next week. Take care. God bless. For now.
