A report from InfoVaticana a Spanish outlet with close Opus Dei ties claims that Pope Leo XIV is on the verge of approving new statutes that would effectively dismantle Opus Dei as it exists today.
In Rome and at Opus Deis headquarters, no one denies that the Holy Sees intervention is imminent.
Two independent sources tell Letters from Leo that the text of the reforms is finalized and its promulgation is only weeks away.
According to the leaks, the changes would mean the definitive break of the original structure that St. Josemaría Escrivá envisioned for the organization.

Not to be underestimated. A brutal cult. I hope Leo has thoroughly vetted his bodyguards. Better than Indira Gandhi.

This is really significant. Alito, Thomas, and maybe Roberts are members. As is Leonard Leo, head of the Federalist Society. It's the excuse they give themselves for the evil things they do.

I think the pope, to be effective, will have to go all "Knights Templar" on them, like Pope Clement V. I'd bring popcorn to that show.
