And he then got elected on the fourth vote: Francis' final surprise for the church.
"Piqué and O’Connell claim that it was ultimately Francis’ shaping of the College of Cardinals that led to Leo’s election. 'Francis could not choose his successor, but he created the conditions that made Leo’s election possible,' the authors wrote. 'It was his last surprise.'”
Money may buy a lot, but it cannot buy everything.

"An unnamed source 'in contact with the cardinals' told Piqué that 'Trump dressed as pope wasn’t a joke' but a message: 'I’m watching you and I want a domesticated Catholic Church.'"
But then the big surprise: despite all that money and organizing on the hard right, Erdő got solid votes in the first round of voting, and then began losing votes as Prevost (Leo XIV) picked up more votes.

Sordid characters like US Catholic journalists Edward Pentin and Diane Montagna circulated a book trying to sway cardinal electors by telling them how various cardinals stood on issues like welcoming LGBTQ people and women's ordination.
Dolan and Trump were/are joined at the hip, and Trump "publicly backed Dolan for pope and later posted an AI-generated picture of himself dressed as pope."

This papal election was seen by them as a big opportunity to flash that money around and do away with Francis' legacy — locking in again the right-wing control they had enjoyed during the papacies of John Paul II and Benedict.

And that move had big money behind it, especially right-wing American Catholic money. Former head of the US Catholic bishops' conference Timothy Dolan, who is very close to that right-wing Catholic money was helping push right-wing Hungarian cardinal Péter Erdő forward.
Big-money US Catholics and the many, many bishops who are in their pocket have done all they can for years now to buy the Vatican and the papacy.

What happened at the conclave that elected Pope Leo XIV, and why was his election such a surprise? Claire Giangravé reports on a new book by Elisabetta Piqué and Gerard O’Connell that relies on insider scoops to tell the story. There was a strong move among right-wing cardinals to elect a hard-right successor to Francis — to obliterate Francis' legacy.

"With the retirement of Cardinal Timothy Dolan as archbishop of New York, the Roman Catholic Church is losing one of its most anti-LGBTQ+ American leaders.
Here’s a look at Dolan’s worst moments as leader of the second-largest archdiocese in the U.S. and what to expect from his successor."

"Trump, likewise, is such a fan of Dolan that he appeared to suggest the cardinal could be the next pope following the death of Pope Francis in April, though he also floated himself as a candidate to head the Catholic Church."

"Dolan has earned a reputation as an eager Trump supporter, with regular appearances on the pro-Trump Fox News and prayer appearances at both of the president’s inaugurations. He appeared alongside Trump at a Catholic Charities fundraiser last year, and referred to slain MAGA commentator Charlie Kirk as 'a modern-day Saint Paul' in the wake of his September killing."

"Pope Leo is replacing pro–Trump Cardinal Timothy Dolan as New York’s archbishop in a major shake-up of the Catholic Church in the U.S.
The first-ever American pope has accepted the resignation of Dolan, a prominent figure known for engaging in culture wars, and has appointed the relatively unknown Illinois-based Bishop Ronald Hicks in his place."

"canon law requires bishops to submit their resignation at age 75. However, the successor Pope Leo named is somewhat of a dark horse: Bishop Ronald Hicks of the Diocese of Joliet in Illinois.
What kinds of moral, pastoral, and political commitments might Bishop Hicks bring to his new role? It’s not clear, but this change will likely be an improvement for those in the Archdiocese of New York. Cardinal Dolan is known for his outspoken right-wing extremism."
-
Recent appointments Pope Leo is making in the US Catholic church suggest that these interpretations of his potential to challenge Trump have strong merit.
Kate Hoeting writes:
"In a Christmas gift for all justice-loving Catholics, Pope Leo XIV has accepted Cardinal Timothy Dolan’s resignation. Dolan’s retirement as Archbishop of New York is not unusual —"

"Saint Paul loved Christ and dedicated his life to Him. Dolan's comparison would, logically, make Donald Trump a second Christ! The cardinal needs to go, and Leo should not delay in finding a replacement. There are others too who need to be replaced, and not just in the United States. The pope must address this urgency quickly."
-
"And he must have been immediately replaced after he extolled a right-wing apologist for Donald Trump, who regrettably was killed several weeks ago, as the second St Paul. It boggles the mind that a Catholic bishop who obtained the rank of cardinal could say something so asinine and irresponsible."
-
"A top priority [for Pope Leo] right now should be the appointment and oversight of bishops, especially those who are negligent in their duties. Exhibit A is Cardinal Timothy Dolan of New York. Already past the age of 75, he could easily be retired and replaced."

#pseudochristian"Cardinal Dolan, I know St. Paul, Charlie Kirk is no St. Paul."
Jesus
-
"Fox is the propaganda arm of the Trump administration, and Dolan’s eager presence in its studios suggests the degree to which powerful figures within and associated with the US Catholic Church shape—and are absorbed into—the ethno-nationalist program of the MAGA regime. In the aftermath of Kirk’s assassination, this unholy and wholly un-Christian alliance appears to be solidifying."
-
"Dolan should know all these things."
In writing this statement, Dominic Preziosi says that Dolan perhaps just didn't realize what he was saying when he said Kirk was a saint like St. Paul. He loves to run his mouth and be on stage, after all. But, alternatively:
"Dolan knew exactly what he was saying and was happy to convey it on behalf of the church’s most reactionary elements."
-
"These include prominent Black church leaders, as well as religious orders like the Catholic Sisters of Charity of New York, who also criticized Dolan directly: Kirk’s 'prejudicial words do not reflect the qualities of a saint,' they said in a statement. 'To compare Mr. Kirk to St. Paul risks confusing the true witness of the Gospel and giving undue sanction to words and actions that hurt the very people Jesus calls us to love.'"
-
"[Cardinal Dolan is] "a cardinal—he surely knows the qualities of sainthood. Does he really believe Kirk embodied them? Many Christians and Catholics, while condemning Kirk’s murder, have also felt obligated to note his record of racist, homophobic, transphobic, and anti-immigrant rhetoric and relentless pro-gun advocacy."

"It is tragic that the guest of honor this year will be someone whose personal example and policy wishes are in a collision course with the principles of Catholic social teaching."
-
"The real outrage is that Trump, given the public nature and extent of his repulsive record, should be invited to a fundraiser for an organization, Catholic Charities, that has long worked in the trenches to save and transform lives on society's farthest margins."
~ National Catholic Reporter
-
"The people running the dinner thought they were using Trump to raise money for Catholic Charities. The reality is that he was using them to normalize his authoritarian project."
-
"His presence at the Al Smith dinner last night turned the event itself into kabuki theater, in which everyone participating pretended that the man who attempted a coup, says he wants to be a dictator, calls his opponents 'vermin' and 'the enemy within,' and has raised the possibility of using the military against American citizens is normal."
-
"And this on the same day that the Archdiocese of Los Angeles agrees to pay $880 million to victims of clergy sexual abuse. As in all things, the most important element in all comedy is timing."
-
"When the scandal hit there, Dolan transferred $57 million worth of assets off the archdiocese’s books and into a cemetery trust fund where it would be sheltered from the lawsuits coming down the tracks. …
So it couldn’t have been a surprise when Dolan sat next to El Caudillo del Mar-a-Lago, yucking it up as the adjudicated criminal dropped a multi-megaton bomb at the Al Smith Dinner in New York."
