I enjoyed reading the article. Fr Robert P. Imbelli’s words represent his opinion, and interpretation of a professional relationship between Pope Francis, and a 95 years of age internationally recognised journalist, Eugenio Scalfari with a reputation for needling the establishment whether it be the Italian deep state, or the institutional church.

Palace politics as represented in The Vatican, or The White House teaches the observer that challenging powerful figures to speak out can, and does expose the intrigue that wallows beneath the surface when self appointed guardians "of the truth" believe that they are divinely inspired to manipulate events.
