"Catholic" Campaign for Omerta

 The "Catholic" Campaign for Human Development has a new name:  the Catholic Campaign for Omerta.  Seems they have a problem with transparency.

...Of the $11,249,000 distributed by the CCHD in FY 2020–2021, $3,430,000 went to organizations acting against Holy Mother Church....

... Despite the findings of this report, the CCHD has adamantly refused to answer any questions or address any concerns. The Lepanto Institute has heard from hundreds of supporters who have emailed and called CCHD officials over the last eight months to ask about the groups profiled in our report, and not a single one has received an answer. All have reported that CCHD officials are not answering their phones — nor are they responding to emails....

Did you notice the FY dates above?  That's the last report CCHD made available to the public.

... One of the major questions supporters have had for CCHD officials is when the next CCHD grant list will be published. Again, the answer from the CCHD is not to answer. The last grant list published by the CCHD is for 2020–2021, and it was published in February 2022. Despite claiming to "publish a list of recent grantees online each year," it's now almost a year and a half since the last grantee list was released and over a year since the 2021–2022 grants were fulfilled, as can be seen here. There is simply no reason for the CCHD to withhold this grant list except to hide its grantees from investigators, thereby proving its refusal to be transparent....

The "Catholic" Campaign for Human Development has regularly given money to organizations which support immoral activities or organizations over the last decade or so.  It's nothing new.

But the current approach to pew-sitters, "Shut Up and PAY!!" is new.

Closing down CCHD is a good option.  Moving them out of D.C. to--say--Fargo is another.  See, Fargo is in Reality-Land and as we have learned but good over the last few years, D.C. is not.  D.C. is Grifter-Land.

Do the Bishops want to be known for that?
