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
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(LG 14) are explicit examples of salvation outside the Church in 1965-2025.So the dogma extra ecclesium nulla salus is obsolete.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based on the irrational interpretation of Vatican Council II- confusing what is implicit as being explicit-which is obsolete. The new theology based upon this confusion, as held by the cardinals at the Consistory this month, is obsolete.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
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 …
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.

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
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."
FSSP: For Epiphany 2026 in Rome, Cardinal Raymond Burke celebratd the Mass at “St Trinità”, i.e. Chiesa della Santissima Trinità dei Pellegrini.
Explosion Shatters Windows of Gaza’s Catholic Church During Mass | Shalom world News An explosion damaged the Holy Family Catholic Church in Gaza, knocking out windows while worshippers were inside for Mass. Video shared by Palestinian Christian activist Ihab Hassan shows congregants praying at the church as a loud explosion shakes the building, rattling windows. Despite the blast, the service continues uninterrupted. The attack comes amid a series of Israeli strikes in Gaza outside areas under its direct control, raising questions about compliance with the US-brokered ceasefire.
Because she understood: everything she has today grew out of those garden beds. “But you’re only talking about material things,” she objected softly. “There’s also spirituality, trust, love…” “It’s easy to talk about spirituality when your fridge is full,” I replied. “It’s much harder when it’s empty. Your mother gave you everything she could. And it worked—you now have choices. How to live. What to believe in. And now—it’s your turn.”
— “My mom is living her life all wrong. I really want to help her…” — “Help her how, exactly?” — “Teach her how to live the right way.” — “And you?” — “What about me?” — “Are you living the right way?” — “Why are we talking about me? I’m talking about my mom!” That’s how this story began—an ordinary one, yet deeply revealing. Sitting across from me was a young, beautiful woman in a bright dress, wrists full of shiny bracelets. Confident. Modern. Put together. Her mother, she said, lived “the wrong way.” Because despite having an apartment and even a voucher for a wellness resort, she stubbornly refused to relax. Instead, she wanted her garden, her vegetable beds, her potatoes. “I’ve told her a hundred times—just buy the potatoes, I’ll pay!” the daughter complained. “All she and her friends talk about are their grandkids.” “And what do you think they should be talking about?” I asked. “Spiritual growth,” she said without hesitation. “And you?” I smiled. “Me again?” …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.
"Washington did not destroy the Venezuelan state because it needed more oil; it did so because it is preparing for a possible war with China. ... The theory of “oil imperialism” does not stand up to a simple review of the facts. The United States is no longer the energy-hungry giant it was in the late 20th century. Texas alone now accounts for around 43 percent of total US crude oil production. ... Over the past two decades, while Washington was bogged down in the Middle East, the People's Republic of China has quietly and systematically built up political influence in the Western Hemisphere. ... In 2024, trade between China and the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States (CELAC) reached a volume of US$551 billion (£400 billion). It is particularly noteworthy that since 2005, Venezuela has accounted for around 44 percent of total Chinese development financing in the region. ... This strategic unrest is inextricably linked to the future of Taiwan. American military planners know …More
Die Behauptung, die USA seien auf dieses Öl nicht angewiesen, ist realitätsfern. Die Vereinigten Staaten verfügen über schätzungsweise 35 Milliarden Barrel Schweröl, dessen Förderung technisch aufwendig ist. Bei einem jährlichen Verbrauch von rund 7,3 Milliarden Barrel wäre dieser gesamte Bestand rechnerisch bereits nach etwa fünf Jahren aufgebraucht. Im Vergleich dazu besitzt Venezuela mit ungefähr 300 Milliarden Barrel ein um ein Vielfaches größeres Ölreservoir.
This is the real story of a Mexican child called Lupito who well envelops every single hardworking honest person in the world, his only interest is to work to help his mother and to beg his father to come home. Furthermore, Lupito is also every single baby murdered in a mother's womb, every child and teen who has been abandoned or abused, or who has fallen victim of a cruel society's indifference, or a victim of war as the children in GAZA. May this story touch the hearts of those who are going to take vows in marriage and those who are parents, and those who still believe in giving their best to change the world spreading a living gospel as the man in the video does for this child when he accepts to buy the child's soccer ball so that he can buy some milk and bread for his mother who has lost her job and is unemployed and crying because her husband abandoned them. This man becomes and adopted Godfather and looks after the family because of Lupito and his brother. A very touching real …More
