Did the US taxpayers pay for the Predatory Sexual Abuse perpetrated by the Roman Catholic Church, to the tune of $3.5 billion, which is exactly why the RCC is going bankrupt?
Meet Timothy Dolan Archbishop of New York
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timothy_M._Dolan
"In June 2012 it was revealed that Dolan "authorized payments of as much as $20,000 to sexually abusive priests as an incentive for them to agree to dismissal from the priesthood when he was the archbishop of Milwaukee" and that "the archdiocese did make such payments…, thereby allowing the church to remove them from the payroll."[19]""
"In July 2013, documents made public during bankruptcy proceedings for the Archdiocese of Milwaukee showed that Dolan had sought permission to move $57 million in church funds to protect the assets from victims of clerical abuse. In a 2007 letter to the Vatican requesting permission to move the funds, Dolan wrote "By transferring these assets to the trust, I foresee an improved protection of these funds from any legal claim
and liability."[75][77] Dolan had previously denied that he tried to conceal assets from child sex abuse victims claiming compensation, calling the accusations "old and discredited" and "malarkey."[78]
The Vatican approved the request in five weeks.[75]"
