Recently the San Francisco Examiner editorial board made an appeal to the pope to dismiss Archbishop Salvatore Cordileone for his action of banning House Speaker Nancy Pelosi from receiving Holy Communion due to her support of abortion.

Their assumed opinion, thinking the pope will listen to them, is as absurd as their statement that she is the “second-most powerful Catholic” in American politics — insinuating that Joe Biden is the most powerful Catholic in American politics.

Let’s be clear: Neither one of them have any power with the Catholic Church.

St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle.
