Vicar General Richard Smith of the diocese of Joliet attended the homosexual “wedding” of the diocese’s chancellor, Robert Salvato, on December 13. ComplicitClergy.com stated on January 5 that they have an eyewitness who confirms that the vicar general was definitely in attendance. Additionally, two other sources identified the vicar general featured in photos from the "wedding". Monsignor Ronald Hicks, 58, was installed as Bishop of Joliet in July 2020. On 1 December 2020, he appointed the pro-homosexual priest Richard Smith as vicar general and, in 2021, the homosexual Salvato as his chancellor. On 18 December, Pope Leo XIV appointed Bishop Hicks as Archbishop of New York. He will be installed as the new Archbishop in February. On December 23, Leo XIV declined to comment on his controversial appointment of Archbishop Hicks of New York. #newsBrjjdpyuyv
Pope Leo XIV delivering the English summary of his first General Audience catechesis of a new cycle on Vatican II, saying: “We see that the documents have lost none of their relevance and are pertinent to the demands and challenges of today. Closely studying the Council documents will help us to be attentive interpreters of the signs of the times, and to proclaim the Gospel to all.”
01/07/2026 Entire blog as a free PDF eBook. When Klaus Schwab complains about the lack of truth and trust, I am reminded of the preparatory exercises, or rather the dress rehearsal for the impending planned pandemic, organized under the name Event 201 in collaboration with the World Economic Forum in October 2019 in a New York hotel. Media representatives were also invited to attend, and they unanimously expressed their willingness to create a globalist reality. Scientists have discovered that the plandemic could have been avoided if, instead of testing citizens for the virus in 2020, politicians had been tested for external dependencies. Who among us has not noticed the unanimity of the media on issues such as the virus threat, global warming, the replacement of societies through migration, the war against evil Putin, and the concealment of the truth about chemtrails, HAARP, and election fraud in the US in 2020? One could list endless other examples of propaganda manipulation. Now …
07.01.2025 CARDINALS AT THE CONSISTORY CAN NO MORE BE ‘OPEN MINDED’ SINCE THE THEOLOGY IS NO MORE THERE IN VATICAN COUNCIL II Catholics can no more be told to be ‘open minded’ since the theology is no more there in Vatican Council II for liberalism. The Council is exclusivist on salvation and with Ad Gentes 7 it is aligned with the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus and the ecclesiology of the Roman Missal. So there is no room for liberalism any more. We cannot still pretend that invisible and implicit cases of the baptism of desire (LG 14) are explicit examples of salvation outside the Church in 1965-2025.So the dogma extra ecclesium nulla salus is obsolete. No. It is liberalism based on the irrational interpretation of Vatican Council II- confusing what is implicit as being explicit-which is obsolete. The new theology based upon this confusion, as held by the cardinals at the Consistory this month, is obsolete. The Consistory cannot be open to the LGBT agenda, since the liberal …More
On 6 January, U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio held discussions with Cardinal Pietro Parolin regarding humanitarian challenges, particularly in Venezuela, as well as global peace and religious freedom. The two parties reaffirmed their commitment to cooperating with each other. The Holy See issued no statement.
Growing older isn’t easy. You have to learn to slow your steps, to say goodbye to who you once were, and to make peace with the person you’ve become. Aging is a test of courage: learning to accept the face you see in the mirror, to carry a changing body with dignity, to wear your years without shame, fear, or apology. You have to allow what needs to happen to happen. To let go of those whose time in your life has passed, and to keep close the ones who choose to stay. Yes, growing older is hard. It means learning not to expect too much from others. Learning to wake up and fall asleep alone—and not look away from the person who meets your eyes in the mirror each morning. Accepting that everything eventually ends, even life itself. Learning how to say goodbye to those who leave, and how to honor the memory of those who are already gone. It means letting yourself cry until there are no tears left, until the heart feels empty—so that new smiles, new hopes, and new desires can finally take …More
Fr. James Altman joins John-Henry Westen to expose what he calls a deliberate campaign to weaken Catholic truth from within. He describes his “exile” as a warning to other priests, enforced through silence and fear, and explains how his new books aim to fortify faithful Catholics with Scripture and timeless doctrine. The conversation also addresses the Vatican’s rejection of Marian titles like Co-Redemptrix, liberal bishops prioritizing illegal immigration over reverent liturgy, and attempts to form a “one-world religion.” Altman blasts these moves as spiritual sabotage, “rat poison” meant to erode doctrine subtly over time.

More than 30 priests from the Diocese of Charlotte have formally appealed to the Vatican with a series of questions concerning recent liturgical directives issued by their bishop, including the prohibition of altar rails and kneelers during Communion. The questions, known as dubia, were submitted in a letter to the Dicastery for Legislative Texts on Jan. 5.
31 priests of the Diocese of Charlotte have formally challenged recent liturgical directives issued by Bishop Michael Martin, submitting Dubia to of all places the Vatican. The Substack.com account The Pillar reports that the priests’ letter to the Dicastery for Legislative Texts was sent on January 5. It questions whether the bishop has the authority to mandate the removal and prohibition of kneelers for Communion. This a policy was announced in a “pastoral” letter by Bishop Martin on December 17. Temporary kneeling fixtures are required to be removed by Jan. 16. Thirty-one priests are about a quarter of the diocesan presbyterate. They argue that kneeling for Communion is explicitly permitted by the General Instruction of the Roman Missal and part of the traditional liturgical practice of the Church. Furthermore, the Dubia question Bishop Martin’s authority to prohibit certain vestments, liturgical prayers, gestures, and elements associated with the Mass of the Roman rite but …More
Ahead of the January 7–8 consistory, a group of cardinals received a new proposal aimed at resolving long-standing tensions surrounding the Mass in the Roman rite, reports Diane Montagna of Substack (January 5). Dated December 24, the proposal was made by Father Louis-Marie de Blignières, founder of the French Fraternity of Saint Vincent Ferrer. The letter (below) was sent in hard copy to 15 cardinals known for their interest in liturgical matters and by email to approximately 100 other cardinals. Rather than calling for a reversal of existing restrictions on the Traditional Latin Mass, the letter proposes a structural solution: the creation of a personal ecclesiastical jurisdiction dedicated to the ancient Roman rite. Modeled in part on military ordinariates and Anglican ordinariates, such a structure would not be defined by territory but by the faithful who choose to belong to it. The proposed jurisdiction would be headed by its own bishop or ordinary and possess the authority to …More
The deep state, controlling the Vatican within, will not allow the occupant of the Chair of Peter to act independently. They will not admit that the VaticanII Church is a fraud. What price for one's salvation? Tragic.

This is in your face wisdom about their double face. Democrats, socialists or "progressives" are nothing more than hypocrites. White washed tombs, enemies of God.
1 John 4:11-18 “God so loved us. (…) God remains in us” “God loves us.” Every meditation must begin with: “God loves us,” lead to, and conclude with: “God loves us.” Otherwise, where does the meditation come from and lead to? God is Love, God is in us. Mark 6:45-52 Jesus said, “Take courage, It is I, Do not be afraid!” Fear is a distancing from trust in God, a distancing from God’s love.

On Epiphany, Cardinal Raymond Burke celebrated Mass in the Roman Rite at the Chiesa della Santissima Trinità dei Pellegrini in Rome entrusted to the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Peter. During his homily, he reflected on how, like the Magi, we may sometimes lose sight of our star and experience a sense of uncertainty. He believes that it is God's will for us to turn to the Church and those who represent Him among us. He added that Christ comes to us through his priests, who are sacramentally configured to him as head and shepherd of the flock in every time and place. He continued: "Despite their unworthiness, they receive the grace to exercise His pastoral charity, which is ever at work for our eternal salvation."
