I thought the Jesuits took a vow of poverty.  What's the penalty for breaking a vow?
It is my understanding that when a priest becomes a bishop he is "automatically" excluded from this congregation, since his office is not compatible with the congregation's hierarchy.
It doesn't make sense for a bishop to live under a vow of poverty. 
I am not trying to say the Pope Francis is nice, it is just that it seems to me that he is not to blame this time. Not for this particular fault at least.

Touted as the Pope of the poor, $20,000,000 loss from his account is an outrage.  That also doesn't tell what was in the account. With people starving from war and Corona, this is a scandal.

20 million doesn't even tell us how much was there in the first place.  Guess it really does pay to be pope.  
He wasn't clear whether this money was from the Peters Pence or if it was a separate discretionary fund. Either way it was inappropriate for that cardinal to take that money which was supposed to be used to help the poor and blow it on this kind of speculative investments. He was either very incompetent or a thief.

One other thing of note with respect to ex Cardinal Becciu, from the Code of Canon Law;

  Can. 1298 Unless an asset is of little value, ecclesiastical goods are not to be sold or leased to the administrators of these goods or to their relatives up to the fourth degree of consanguinity or affinity without the special written permission of competent authority.

Man, this is something right out of a jewy-wood movie. 

Actually, right out of a godfather flick. Just replace Francis with the corrupt cardinal and Soros or some other member of the global cabal of  banksters for Michael Corleone. And you have the perfect setting for what's going on now.

As Vigano stated, this is an example of the DEEP CHURCH.
