How Leo XIV’s Consistory Plays Out — or Was Played

As Pope Leo XIV opened the first extraordinary consistory of his pontificate on Wednesday, he structured the programme in a way that avoided substantive discussion of key issues.
Even participating cardinals had previously believed official messaging and expected the liturgy to be addressed. Cardinal Hollerich of Luxembourg told journalists outside the Synod Hall on Wednesday that he had believed the Mass in the Roman rite would be discussed during the consistory.
“I’m not against it,” he said, “but I do not like some of the values that are sometimes attached to it — no interreligious dialogue, not accepting the Second Vatican Council, and so on. But the liturgy itself, I think, is no problem. If many people have access to God through that liturgy, then that’s fine with me.”
Is Leo XIV Playing for Time with Naive Catholics?
However, Leo XIV informed the consistory that, due to alleged “time constraints,” only two of the four outlined topics would be discussed.
He then staged a vote …More

What did Trad, Inc. and their followers expect? What did they think Francis' successor was actually going to allow? A vote by the Cardinals (the majority of whom were appointed by Francis) to reinstate the Roman Rite?......are you kidding?

French Euthanasia Bill Would Force Catholic Institutions to Perform Euthanasia or Close: The European Centre for Law and Justice (ECLJ), an NGO based in Strasbourg, warns that a proposed French euthanasia law could force Catholic hospitals and nursing homes to perform euthanasia. Refusal could result in the loss of public funding, fines, and even prison sentences for directors. The ECLJ argues that this would constitute a serious violation of freedom of conscience and religion. No other country that has legalized euthanasia imposes such criminal obligations on private institutions.

Euthanasie en France : les établissements catholiques gravement menacés

Parmi ses dispositions, elle prévoit en effet d’obliger les établissements catholiques à pratiquer l’euthanasie, sous peine de poursuites pénales.
C’est une atteinte gravissime à la liberté des maisons de retraites et des établissements de soin catholiques. Pour ces congrégations, il est impossible d’accepter la pratique de l’euthanasie sur les personnes qui leur sont confiées.
En conséquence, ces établissements pourraient perdre leurs financements publics, et leurs directeurs pourraient même être condamnés pour délit d’entrave à une peine de deux ans de prison et 30.000 euros d’amendes.
Imagine-t-on une religieuse aller en prison en France pour avoir refusé l’euthanasie de l’un de ses patients ou pensionnaire ? C’est pourtant ce que prévoit la proposition de loi.
Pour dénoncer ce risque – et la proposition de loi dans son ensemble – un collectif de congrégations hospitalières, soutenu par des juristes de renom, a publié une tribune dans Le Figaro, à l’initiative de …

The French, whether in France, or in Canada, it appears, have a real obsession with euthanasia (by the by, using the many of the 'humane' justifications the inventor of the guillotine used for his invention!). How far the once faithful Daughter of the Church has plummeted.

Pope Leo opens first consistory with strong emphasis on synodality, Vatican II - LifeSite

Wed Jan 7, 2026 - 12:25 pm ESTWed Jan 7, 2026 - 3:45 pm EST
VATICAN CITY (
LifeSiteNews) — Pope Leo XIV opened his first extraordinary consistory with an agenda centered on synodality, liturgy and the legacy of the Second Vatican Council.
On Wednesday, January 7, Pope Leo began the first extraordinary consistory of his pontificate at the Vatican, convening cardinals from around the world in the Paul VI Hall and the New Synod Hall to reflect together, advise the Pope, and discuss key themes like synodality and liturgy through a program centered on small working groups and plenary interventions.
In his general audience held earlier the same day, Leo said that the Second Vatican Council “has helped us to open ourselves to the world and to grasp the changes and challenges of the modern age in dialogue and shared responsibility,” adding “we must still more fully realize ecclesial reform in a ministerial key.”
According to details published by Il Giornale, registration for participating …

Cardinals have chosen 'Synod and synodality' and 'Evangelization and mission' as topics for the Consistory 'Liturgy' was one of two themes not chosen

Cardinal Regrets Continuation of Francis’ Path at Consistory

Today, 170 Cardinals gathered for the first consistory. Pope Leo XIV was flanked in the Synod Hall by his Curia Cardinals, most of whom are pro-homosexual: Tucho (Faith), Mendonça (Education), Grech (Synod), Roche (Liturgy), Baggio (Human Development), and Artime (Religious).
After entering the Synod Hall, English pro-homosexual Cardinal Timothy Radcliffe, 80, delivered a meditation to the Cardinals. The decision to keep him in the same role he held during the Synod on Synodality carries symbolic weight. His speech today was fairly mild. However, just the day before, Cardinal Radcliffe called for the urgent ordination of women as deacons.
The cardinals were divided into two groups. The first group consisted of cardinals under the age of 80. This group was further divided into nine round tables. The second group, consisting of elderly cardinals and the Roman Curia, was divided into eleven round tables.
In the groups, the Cardinals discussed Synodality and Evangelisation.

It was never going to be any different. And those who thought that it would be were deceived, deluded, hoodwinked and bamboozled. This is clearly still Francis' College of Cardinals and Francis' chosen successor......get used to it.
