Dear President Trump:
The campaign slogan “Make America Great
Again,” resonated with millions of common Americans and your tenacity in
pushing back against many of the most harmful recent trends has been most
inspiring. We all look forward to seeing a continued reversal of the collectivist
trends of recent decades.
Reversing recent collectivist trends will,
by necessity, require a reversal of many of the actions taken by the previous
administration. Among those actions we believe that there is one that
remains cloaked in secrecy. Specifically, we have reason to believe that
a Vatican “regime change” was engineered by the Obama administration.
We were alarmed to discover that, during
the third year of the first term of the Obama administration your previous
opponent, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, and other government officials
with whom she associated proposed a Catholic “revolution” in which the final
demise of what was left of the Catholic Church in America would be
realized.[1] Approximately a year after this e-mail discussion, which was
never intended to be made public, we find that Pope Benedict XVI abdicated
under highly unusual circumstances and was replaced by a pope whose apparent
mission is to provide a spiritual component to the radical ideological agenda
of the international left. [2] The Pontificate of Pope Francis has subsequently
called into question its own legitimacy on a multitude of occasions. [3]
During the 2016 presidential campaign we
were astonished to witness Pope Francis actively campaigning against your
proposed policies concerning the securing of our borders, and even going so far
as to suggest that you are not a Christian [4]. We appreciated your
prompt and pointed response to this disgraceful accusation [5].
We remain puzzled by the behavior of this
ideologically charged Pope, whose mission seems to be one of advancing secular
agendas of the left rather than guiding the Catholic Church in Her sacred
mission. It is simply not the proper role of a Pope to be involved in
politics to the point that he is considered to be the leader of the
international left.
While we share your stated goal for
America, we believe that the path to “greatness” is for America to be “good”
again, to paraphrase de Tocqueville. We understand that good character
cannot be forced on people, but the opportunity to live our lives as good
Catholics has been made increasingly difficult by what appears to be a
collusion between a hostile United States government and a pope who seems to
hold as much ill will towards followers of perennial Catholic teachings as he
seems to hold toward yourself.
With all of this in mind, and wishing the
best for our country as well as for Catholics worldwide, we believe it to be
the responsibility of loyal and informed United States Catholics to petition
you to authorize an investigation into the following questions:
- To what end was the National
Security Agency monitoring the conclave that elected Pope Francis? [6]
– What other covert operations
were carried out by US government operatives concerning the resignation of Pope
Benedict or the conclave that elected Pope Francis?
– Did US government operatives
have contact with the “Cardinal Danneels Mafia”? [7]
– International monetary
transactions with the Vatican were suspended during the last few days prior to
the resignation of Pope Benedict. Were any U.S. Government agencies
involved in this? [8]
– Why were international
monetary transactions resumed on February 12, 2013, the day after Benedict XVI
announced his resignation? Was this pure coincidence? [9]
– What actions, if any, were
actually taken by John Podesta, Hillary Clinton, and others tied to the Obama
administration who were involved in the discussion proposing the fomenting of a
“Catholic Spring”?
– What was the purpose and nature of the
secret meeting between Vice President Joseph Biden and Pope Benedict XVI at the
Vatican on or about June 3, 2011?
– What roles were played
by George Soros and other international financiers who may be currently
residing in United States territory? [10]
We believe that the very existence of these
unanswered questions provides sufficient evidence to warrant this request for
an investigation.
Should such an investigation reveal that
the U.S. government interfered inappropriately into the affairs of the Catholic
Church, we further request the release of the results so that Catholics may
request appropriate action from those elements of our hierarchy who remain
loyal to the teachings of the Catholic Church.
Please understand that we are not
requesting an investigation into the Catholic Church; we are simply asking for
an investigation into recent activities of the U.S. Government, of which you
are now the chief executive.
Thank you again, and be assured of our most
sincere prayers.
Respectfully,
David L. Sonnier, LTC US ARMY (Retired)
