Cera,
There were multiple links on Marshall’s Opus Dei background on the “callmejorge” blog you were unable to access.
There was only one footnote which worked, and the aforementioned non-working footnote link. The attack on Taylor Marshall was unfounded speculation. Prove me wrong.

An old adage that is particularly apt when it comes to miraculous Novus Ordo Indult-only trad conversions: If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

Buuut... Muh VII truth filter!

Let it die. Vigano, like Trump may bring a certain amount of relief and hope to starving ears but there's a rainbow flag at the end of that pot 'o shekels.
Something is amiss.
I agree with Matthew AND Croixalist in the same day...

I think +Vigano stands out among all the rest of "indult only" conversions. 
1) He's already stated his opposition to V2 and the innovative/abusive new mass.  So, if he privately says the TLM, what kind of "indult" is that?  It's not an indult at all, for he disagrees with every "condition" of +Benedict's "motu" and has stated his support of Quo Primum.
.
2) Let's give Marshall and all these recent indult-converts some leeway.  Many of them are totally new to Catholicism, in general, AND to Tradition.  Marshall admitted that he used to hate +Lefevbre and the sspx because he looked upon them as similar to Martin Luther, who rejected the Church, and many "normal" catholics he talked to, told him the sspx was schismatic.  Fast forward to now, and he had admitted he was wrong, sees why Tradition exists and now supports +Vigano's cast-it-all-out approach to V2, as opposed to Schneider's "let keep trying to fix a square circle" approach.  I see a lot of good will in Marshall.
.
3) I don't know much about Opus Dei, except they are a big organization with dubious beginnings and a questionable orthodoxy.  Does this mean that EVERY member is "in on it"?  And if Marshall is corrupted, how so?  What's the goal?  What has he done that's wrong?  He's an anglican convert that joined Opus Dei...maybe he makes good money and they wanted his contributions?  There's a lot of "useful idiots" in these groups (including the masons), who invite "popular" people so their groups appear mainstream, and many of these "popular" people have no idea they're being used.

As someone who was influenced someone by Dr. Marshall on my path to discovering Catholic tradition, I have mixed views about him. I think he provides a lot of good info on the TLM and Catholic tradition, as well as other things like the Fatima apparitions. Due to the size of his channel, more of this information is now more easily accessible. However, I don't like his pro-Indult views and his book "Infiltration", as someone else pointed out in this thread, is quite lacking. Haven't been looking into his more recent stuff for the most part, as I started to move away from his content about a year ago, after he put a strike on Dr. E Michael Jones' channel because Jones tried to defend himself in an accusation made against him by Timothy Gordon during an online dispute. That really was a scuмmy move. Another strange thing he did was that he made a podcast or two with Timothy Gordon a while back in which they both condemned Distributism as being "Catholic Socialism". Don't know if he's changed on that position, however.

Continuing on the subject of Taylor Marshall, he did say on a video months ago that he'd like to do an interview with Bishop Williamson sometime. Who knows if that will actually happen, I somewhat doubt it considering that it may give His Excellency some positive exposure to a wider audience, something that Trad Inc. absolutely doesn't want to happen. Here's a link to my thread on this:
