Archbishop Viganò claimed Pope Francis knew about McCarrick’s abuse. A new report reveals crucial gaps in his story.

The president of the U.S. bishops said the findings mark “another tragic chapter in the church's long struggle to confront the crimes of sexual abuse by clergy.”

Why did Pope John Paul II make Theodore McCarrick the archbishop of Washington, D.C., despite receiving allegations of abuse? Colleen Dulle offers a brief summary.

Vatican authorities, the U.S. bishops conference and the apostolic nuncio heard scattered allegations about misconduct by McCarrick but discounted them because their sources were considered unreliable.

“We thank God for the blessings of liberty. The American people have spoken in this election,” Archbishop Gomez said, congratulating Biden and Harris on behalf of the U.S. bishops.

Our task now, after we have defaced our neighbors’ political signs and posted undignified invectives online, is to figure out how to be more neighborly to one another.
