Pope Francis removed Bishop Joseph Strickland who has become a staunch critic of the pontiff in recent months.
In 2020, Strickland called the church “weak” and “not clear” and dared the pontiff to fire him, The National Catholic Reporter (NCR) reported earlier this year.
The AP reported Strickland also took aim at Francis’s recent meeting on hot-topic issues, including in the integration LGBTQ+ Catholics, the potential for woman deacons and access to the priesthood for married men.
