Is Opus Dei Infiltrating Power In Washington? Investigative Journalist Reveals All Of Scandal

Opus Dei presents itself as a Catholic movement dedicated to finding holiness in everyday life. Critics and former members, however, allege a far darker reality. Bianca Nobilo is joined by investigative journalist Gareth Gore, author of Opus, who traces the organisation's rise from its founding in Spain in 1928 to its influence in politics, finance and the Catholic Church. He examines allegations of psychological manipulation, labour exploitation, human trafficking and abuse - claims Opus Dei strongly denies - and explores the controversial legacy of founder Josemaría Escrivá, the movement's culture of secrecy, and its global reach. Gore also explains how he had a meeting with Pope Leo XIV, where he called for an independent Vatican investigation, Opus Dei's detailed rebuttal to his book, and questioned whether one of the world's most influential Catholic organisations is facing reform or renewed growth. Opus Dei rejects Gareth Gore's characterisation of the organisation and denies allegations of human trafficking and other wrongdoing discussed in this conversation. 00:00 Opus Dei's troubling history 02:03 Alleged abuses - investigative journalist Gareth Gore 03:42 Controversial traditions & corporal mortification 07:35 Children as alleged targets 11:35 Opus Dei cracks America 14:56 Opus Dei & Spain's civil war 17:13 Allegations: human trafficking & sexual misconduct 20:29 Opus Dei response 22:35 An audience with Pope Leo 28:30 What should people know?
