Father Frank Pavone has been dismissed from the Catholic priesthood over what the Vatican has called “blasphemous communications on social media” and persistent disobedience of the lawful instructions of his diocesan bishop.”
Pavone has been a full-throated supporter of Donald Trump, and is unforgiving on his pro-life stance as the national director of Priests for Life. No clear reason other than “blasphemy” has been given, and what comprises the basis for that accusation has also not been revealed.
