A Vatican expert who has met Pope Francis told me:
"There's an old saying: the louder they scream, the scare-der they are. This applies to Oscar the Grouch."
"Maradiaga's unprovoked, caustic, low blow at Burke is simply bizarre, but it signals to me that they are losing their popularity. Oscar's rant signals desperation. He senses the wind is shifting away from the merciful Pope."
"The fact that Burke is still around, gaining traction and the voice of the Resistance is infuriating them."
According to the source who wishes to remain anonymous, "Francis is very thin skinned." The "series of Resistance conferences in Rome's steps" and the "band of bloggers" is getting "under his skin."
The Vatican expert's advice to the Resistance and the band of bloggers:
"Keep the heat on."
