John Prevost knew there was a chance his brother could be elected pope. But Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost, who was preparing for the conclave, shrugged it off when his older brother called from Illinois. "He said, ‘No way, not going to happen,’" his brother recalled.

This is vile, cruel, and unforgivable. Period.
