Luigi Bisignani at IL TEMPO: Matteo's secret plan
by

Image results for the man who whispered to the powerfulL’“man who whispers to the powerful” expresses his opinion in one of his usual Sunday letters to the editor of The weather, second newspaper of the capital. The reader will wonder why these sporadic spaces are given to those who are extremely distant from our positions in many respects. Well, after meeting him, the reason is easy to say: l’ “man who whispers to the powerful” can say things, sometimes, more interesting than others. No offense to those who don't whisper anything to anyone… On the contrary…(N.d.R.)
Of Luigi Bisignani
Dear director, Matteo Salvini, like a lion in the savannah, sniffs the air and prepares the next attack to conquer more and more territory. The first moves went better than expected and now that it has placed the immigration front at the center of the European debate, among other things, ridiculing Macron and taking Merkel's applause, can handle “from above” relations with his allies, Forza Italia and Brothers of Italy, who, in order not to be destroyed, will do everything not to turn him against each other. The Movement 5 position, weakened for a number of reasons, first of all the internal struggles between the Grillo-Di Battista-Fico group and the Di Maio-Bonafede-Casaleggio group that have been tearing it apart since they began to smell the scent of power, loses more and more consensus. With a savannah with such an arid landscape, the lion Salvini is secretly preparing his plan B: it will be taken, in one shot, those disappointed by Berlusconi, of Meloni but above all a part of that Grillino electorate who can no longer tolerate that summary justice and facade environmentalism that blocks investments and new infrastructures.

Of Luigi Bisignani

Pierferdi also messes up with Talleyrand. He compares Andreotti to the great French "chameleon".

And then the Divo Giulio only has to visit him in a dream to dot the i's…

Dear director, excited Easter awakening for Pier Ferdinando Casini, one of the "child prodigies" of the DC, from beyond 35 years in Parliament between political betrayals and cover stories. In a nocturnal nightmare, he dreamed of Andreotti reprimanding him for an imprudent interview with Corriere della Sera, in which Casini compared him to Charles – Maurice de Talleyrand -Pèrigord, French nobleman who had begun his career as a bishop, then he threw away his cloak and became one of the most cynical politicians, corrupt and clever people of his time, capable of anything to survive. Talleyrand, lived between the end of 1700 and the beginning of the 19th century, and has always been considered the symbol of political chameleonism – it was no coincidence that contemporaries called it "girouette", weathervane – it will be performed in the next few days at the theater by Pierferdi himself.

Still rubbing his eyes, Casini tries to remember Andreotti's reprimand, than wearing his usual blue double-breasted sweater, he had just finished a game of burraco with Cossiga, who after all has always been looking for someone to play poker. Read More

E’ Seplenist, but his observations are sobering.
Of Luigi Bisignani

The Vatican turmoil in black and white (and the cardinals' desire for rebellion)

Dear director, once again it is a book that shakes the unadorned rooms of Santa Marta, where Pope Bergoglio has been staying for five years. It is a profound reflection on the Pontificate, not a scandalous book, which comes out on the fifth anniversary of the election of Pope Bergoglio and seems to gather the discontent of an increasingly disoriented curia and episcopate. To write it,not a reporter looking for scandals but a thoroughbred journalist, Mauro Mazza, for years at the top of Rai publications. “Bergoglio and prejudice” (Publisher Pages,210 pages) it was written on the original basis of articles and occasional notes, subsequently assembled or, more often, expanded and rewritten. A book written by a courageous Catholic that leaves the reader full of questions. In his merciless overview he touches on all the most controversial points of this five-year period,from divorced people to homosexuals, from openings in foreign policy, especially towards the Orthodox of Moscow, up to the anomalies of some centers of power,as Communion and Liberation. With the curiosity of a reporter and the vision of a historian, Mazza doesn't believe they can arrive, but it doesn't exclude either, possible resignation of the Pope. "It was profoundly different", writes Mazza,«the situation experienced with Benedict XVI. It was a sensational and unexpected resignation. Yet his renunciation, even with so few precedents in the two thousand year history of the Church, was considered realistic". Read More
