DECEMBER 16 2025 THE GOSPEL breski1 Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Matthew 21,28-32. Jesus said to the chief priests and the elders of the people: "What is your opinion? A man had two sons. He came to the first and said, 'Son, go out and work in the vineyard today.' He said in reply, 'I will not,' but afterwards he changed his mind and went. The man came to the other son and gave the same order. He said in reply, 'Yes, sir,' but did not go. Which of the two did his father's will?" They answered, "The first." Jesus said to them, "Amen, I say to you, tax collectors and prostitutes are entering the kingdom of God before you. When John came to you in the way of righteousness, you did not believe him; but tax collectors and prostitutes did. Yet even when you saw that, you did not later change your minds and believe him."
Sounds good, but, in truth, she wasn't very effective when she was in power, albeit, she may have been set up to fail and was deep-sixed by her own party.

Editor https://irishlightpaper.com/ Crisis acting worse than usual: they're recycling glowies at a rate of knots. All you can do is lol but I continue to cover these psyops in the hope that just one normie sees through the media lies They gave us a double whammy this weekend: Bondi and Brown as fake as they get. 2025 was the year of some of the most contrived media hoaxes and they’re desperate to cram in a few more before December is out. This weekend, the yids gave us a double whammy with some awful tripe from Bondi to put a dampener on the barby season and remind the groypers in Ausjailia who’s boss. We got another trailerload of manure from Brown University, Rhode Island. Where these psyops actually took place is anyone’s guess - they could just as easily have been thrown together in a seedy film studio on a back street of Haifa. The purpose as always: to justify …
HOAX XOXO "There is speculation on the Internet that the 'O' is of North American descent: when arriving in the United States, Jewish immigrants, most of whose first language was Yiddish, would use an 'O' to sign documents, thus not using the sign of the cross, and shop keepers would often use an 'O' when signing documents, in place of an 'X''

Las Posadas: from December 16-24 Las Posadas originated in colonial Mexico. The Augustinian friars of San Agustin de Acolman, near Mexico City, are believed to have organized the first posadas. In 1586, Friar Diego de Soria, the Augustinian prior, obtained a papal bull from Pope Sixtus V to celebrate what was called ‘Misas de Aguinaldo’ or ‘Christmas bonus masses’ between December 16 and 24. The tradition seems to be one of many examples of how the Catholic religion in Mexico was adapted to make it easier for the indigenous people to understand and blend with their earlier beliefs. The Aztecs had a tradition of honoring their god Huitzilopochtli at the same time of year, coinciding with the winter solstice. The Posada celebrations were originally held in the church but the custom spread. Later it was celebrated in haciendas, and then in family homes, gradually taking the form of the celebration as it is now practiced by the time of the 19th century. Now, neighborhood committees often …More

Firing Tucho is a benchmark for Leo XIV: New York canon lawyer and priest Gerald Murray is urging Pope Leo XIV to remove Cardinal Víctor “Tucho” Fernández as prefect of the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith. Speaking with journalist Raymond Arroyo, Rev Murray called Fernández’s recently resurfaced pornographic writings “a total disgrace” and “a horrendous production done by a priest”. Tucho is “completely unsuited to be a pastor of souls”. Rev Murray recalled that Pope Francis justified Tucho’s earlier books as writings of a younger priest. However, the newly revealed books were written until 2009, when Tucho was aged 46: “If we were doing a profile, a criminal profile, about a sex abuser, and I’m not saying he is a sex abuser, but if you saw this literature coming out and you would say to yourself, ‘Well, it’s quite clear that the sex abuser got started a long time ago.’” The conclusion: “He should be fired.” And: “This is going to be a benchmark for Pope Leo XIV.

Vatican Nativity Unveiled in St. Peter’s Square: Today, the Vatican inaugurated the nativity scene and lit up the Christmas tree in St Peter’s Square. This year's nativity scene was created by the Diocese of Nocera Inferiore–Sarno, which has close links to St Alphonsus Maria de Liguori. His relics are venerated in Pagani, within the diocese. The nativity includes a figure of the saint, who founded the Redemptorists and wrote the Christmas hymn “Tu scendi dalle stelle”.

Blessed János Brenner: The “Hungarian Tarcisius” | Young Priest & Martyr for the Eucharist Blessed János Brenner (1931–1957) was a young Hungarian Cistercian priest and martyr whose short life shone with extraordinary love for Jesus and the Eucharist. Ordained at just 24, he became known for his joyful youth ministry, drawing many young people back to the faith during a time of harsh communist persecution in Hungary. Because his ministry threatened the authorities, János was targeted. In 1957, he was deceived by a false request to bring Holy Communion to a sick person. On his way through the woods, he was ambushed and stabbed 32 times. He was found the next day, dead — still clutching the Eucharist he had been carrying to the supposed dying person. For this reason, he is lovingly called the “Hungarian Tarcisius,” after the early Christian martyr who died protecting the Blessed Sacrament. Beatified by Pope Francis in 2018, Blessed János is a powerful witness to courage, purity of …More
Yesterday in the Cathedral of Notre-Dame de Paris, Fr. Raymond Cayré, Fr. Gérard-Martin Cendrier, OFM, Roger Vallé, seminarian, Jean Mestre, layman, and forty-six companions were beatified. They were killed in hatred of the faith in 1944-45 during the Nazi occupation of France. Pope Leo XIV today said: “Let us praise the Lord for these martyrs, courageous witnesses to the Gospel, persecuted and killed for remaining close to their people and faithful to the Church!”
It was “not so good” that Pope Francis had suppressed the traditional Roman Mass "in an authoritarian way," Cardinal Gerhard Ludwig Müller said in an interview with journalist Michael Haynes. Pope Francis, Cardinal Müller said, had been "hurting and committing an injustice by accusing everyone who loves the older form of the rite of being against the Second Vatican Council in a general way, without any differentiating justice to single persons." The cardinal criticized what he sees as a double standard in the Vatican’s emphasis on dialogue and respect: "All the time they speak about dialogue and respect for other persons. When it comes to the homosexual agenda and gender ideology, they speak about respect—but toward their own people, they have no respect," he said. Cardinal Müller emphasized that the Church is like a family called to overcome internal tensions like brothers: "We do not have a police-state system in the Church, and we do not need one." And: "The Pope and the bishops …More
THE SANHEDRIN EMBASSY Fray Justo Pérez de Urbel Third Sunday of Advent The Baptist continues to fulfill his job as a pioneer, straightening the crooked paths and opening his hearts to the approaching light. It fulminates, exhorts, comforts and baptizes. They have not yet chained their hands or locked their voice between the walls of a basement. He lives on the banks of the Jordan, not far from Jericho, next to the entrance to the desert, where he has spent the years of his youth in mortification and fasting. But now the loner has become a director of men, the silent inhabitant of the jungle into a possible leader of villages. In all of Palestine there is only talk of his appearance. Up there, the fishermen of the lake entertain the forced waits of their office by repeating the words of the penitent; the pious Israelites begin to see in him a joyful hope, and even in the National Council of Israel, in the Sanhedrin, the Scriptures are stirred to look for some luminous text referring to …More
