Tweet from "@LepantoInst": "Like a Soviet-era dictator, and in a raw exercise of power without provision of law, Pope Francis has removed Bp. Joseph Strickland as bishop of Tyler, TX." Beneath: "Readers added context they thought people might want to know" "Misleading: implies irregularity or illegality under Catholic rule/Vatican law.
