A Restaurant on the Roof of St. Peter’s Basilica:
There are rumors and reports suggesting that a restaurant is being planned on the rooftop of St. Peter’s Basilica. The Vatican has confirmed that the area is being expanded to accommodate more visitors, aiming to reduce crowding and create a more peaceful environment. The restaurant would be located near the apostles’ statues, offering a panoramic view of Rome. While the project is still in progress, it is expected to open for the 400th anniversary of the basilica’s consecration in November 2025. However, some critics argue that this is an unnecessary and inappropriate use of space, especially given the sacred nature of the site.
Pope’s New Living Quarters:
The Vatican is redeveloping the Apostolic Palace, and there are reports that Pope Francis will not live in the main floor but instead in the upper floor (called "soffittoni" in Vatican terms). This change is part of a larger renovation project, which includes creating new spaces …More

Luis Badilla. “L’edilizia vaticana e le cose che quadrano male o poco. Il Papa vivrà in una mansarda e sul tetto della Basilica ci sarà un ristorante” - MiL - Messainlatino.it

Grazie a Luis Badilla per questa analisi sulle nuove notizie “edili” dal Vaticano.
“Va bene, ma non tocca alla Basilica di San Pietro cercare soluzioni, casomai le autorità preposte dovrebbero cercare metodi, spazi e modi per garantire ai fedeli e pellegrini il diritto alla preghiera e alla meditazione. Anni fa, visitando la Basilica, sentì dire da un irritato giovane spagnolo rivolgendosi a un gendarme: “Mi scusi, qui c’è uno spazio dove pregare?”. La cosa peggiore – per ora seppure plausibile solo fantasia – è un’altra, da brivido: il giorno in cui in cambio di una somma di denaro corposa si potrà salire nel ristorante della Basilica dell’Apostolo Simone Pietro per celebrare un compleanno, un matrimonio o una festa fra amici”.

Mandelson resigns from Labour to prevent ‘further embarrassment’ over Epstein links

Peter Mandelson has said he has resigned his membership of the Labour party to avoid causing it “further embarrassment” after more revelations about his friendship with Jeffrey Epstein.
The peer, who was sacked as US ambassador last year because of his links to Epstein, featured in documents released by the US Department of Justice on Friday related to the convicted sex offender.
Mandelson said he had written on Sunday evening to Hollie Ridley, the general secretary of the Labour party, to say he was resigning his party membership.
His letter said: “I have been further linked this weekend to the understandable furore surrounding Jeffrey Epstein and I feel regretful and sorry about this.
“Allegations which I believe to be false that he made financial payments to me 20 years ago, and of which I have no record or recollection, need investigating by me.
“While doing this, I do not wish to cause further embarrassment to the Labour party and I am therefore stepping down from membership …

BREAKING: SSPX episcopal consecrations announced

The SSPX has announced that they will be consecrating bishops 1 July 2026, apparently without pontifical mandate, following Archbishop Lefebvre’s ‘Operation Survival’ in 1988 and another in 1991.
Following the death of
Bishop Bernard Tissier de Mallerais in 2024 (and also Bishop Richard Williamson in 2025), the Society of St Pius X (SSPX) has announced that they will be following in his footsteps and consecrating bishops, apparently without the permission of Leo XIV, on 1 July 2026.
This will mark the second time – and not the first, as many think – that the Society of St Pius X’s bishops have conferred episcopal consecration since 1988 (more on this below).
The statement is as follows:
Press release dated 2 February 2026.
On 2 February 2026, the feast of the Purification of the Blessed Virgin, the Reverend Father Davide Pagliarani, Superior General of the Priestly Society of Saint Pius X, during the ceremony of the taking of the cassock which he presided over at the International …

The SSPX did not leave the Vatican and papal authority, it left the Society with its adherence to VII and its Modernist ideas.

Labour Plans To Make Britain’s Countryside ‘Less White’ – Allah's Willing Executioners

The Labour government has drawn up plans to make Britain’s countryside “less white,” after government-commissioned reports claimed rural England could become “irrelevant” in an increasingly multicultural society.
The proposals,
coordinated by the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra), have been taken up by officials running England’s protected landscapes, including the Chilterns, the Cotswolds, and the Malvern Hills.
Internal documents describe rural England as a “white environment” dominated by the “white middle class”, and argue that urgent action is needed to attract more ethnic minority visitors.
Under the plans, landscape authorities have committed to diversity targets, outreach programmes, and recruitment drives designed to change both who visits the countryside and how it is presented. Marketing material will be altered to feature more ethnic minority visitors, while information will be produced in multiple “community languages.”
In the Chilterns, …

Art to give praise and glory to God

In the video below, watch Christian artist Vanessa Horabuena "speed paint" the face of Jesus Christ in just ten minutes. What a gift! The painting was later auctioned off by President Donald Trump for $2.75 million for charity. The event took place at Mar-a-Lago.
Here's what Horabuena
says about the story and her mission as a painter:
In this video, I’m sharing the incredible, behind-the-scenes story of how my live speed painting of Jesus Christ was auctioned by Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago on New Year's Eve. What started as an unexpected invitation turned into a historic moment where the name of Jesus was lifted high in front of the world.
I wasn't even scheduled to paint. But God opened a door at this New Year's Eve party, and the result was a world-record auction for a speed painting. Watch the footage of the auction, see the painting come to life, and hear my heart on why this matters more than the money. It’s not about the price tag it’s about the value of Christ.

Barnhardt Podcast #244: Ten Hard to the Back

Download MP3 File
In this episode recorded on Septuagesima Sunday, The Tombstone Four discuss the importance of the pre-Lenten phase, as well as the coincident Feast of St. Ignatius of Antioch. We then touch on the death of comedienne Catherine O’Hara, a confessing Catholic, and by all accounts a very nice lady, who sadly participated in the normalization of sodomy in the last phase of her career. Is “being a nice person” really enough to offset such horrific associations? We then discuss frankly the events in Minnesota, police actions in general, and the need for law enforcement and military ranks to be populated by exactly what’s so lacking in today’s post-Christian world: rough and ready men of extreme virtue. We conclude with thoughts on the 40th anniversary of NASA killing the Challenger astronauts – one of whom never should have been set atop a gigantic bomb in the first place.

Barnhardt is a 100% phony. In 13 years of her website, she has never, never posted an article against abortion. She does not give a plug nickel about the unborn.

"Why Don't You Criticize Iran??"

Reading by Tim Foley:
Any time things heat up with an empire-targeted government I always get people demanding to know why I’m not critical of that government.
“Why don’t you criticize Iran? You spend all your time criticizing the west and Israel; you’re a hypocrite if you don’t criticize Iran.”
It flabbergasts them that I’m not saying harsh things about the latest Official Bad Guy of the Day. Everyone on TV is criticizing Iran. Both mainstream political parties are criticizing Iran. Their favorite mainstream political podcasters and online pundits are criticizing Iran. So why isn’t Caitlin Johnstone criticizing Iran? There must be something nefarious and treasonous about her.

This will be a catastrophic war in which countless innocent Iranians will perish. I am sick to my stomach thinking about friends and loved ones who’ll have to endure this madness.

FSSPX Announces Consecration of New Bishops on July 1, 2026

The Priestly Fraternity of St Pius X (FSSPX) has announced that on 1 July 2026, they will consecrate new bishops without the Vatican's approval. This follows their request to Pope Leo XIV in August, to which they did not receive a satisfactory response.
Full Statement
On 2 February 2026, the feast of the Purification of the Blessed Virgin, the Reverend Father Davide Pagliarani, Superior General of the Priestly Society of Saint Pius X, during the ceremony of the taking of the cassock which he presided over at the International Seminary of Saint-Curé-d’Ars in Flavigny-sur-Ozerain, France, publicly announced his decision to entrust the bishops of the Fraternity with the task of proceeding with new episcopal consecrations, on 1 July next.
Last August, he sought the favour of an audience with the Holy Father, making known his desire to present to the Holy Father, in a filial manner, the current situation of the Priestly Society of Saint Pius X.
In a second letter, he explicitly expressed …More

Burke, the cardinal, declared them schismatic. After this announcement, let's see what this supposed "traditionalist" has to say.

The Germans can officially bless sodomite-unions, ordain deaconettes and create lay-councils to override Bishops.....but the faithful FSSPX can't consecrate new Bishops?

Right. Secular atheist Jews funded Hitler. Just as today secular "catholics" would happily fund the "extermination" of GOD fearing Catholics.

Modern Idols, Ancient Warnings
The prophet Zephaniah calls for humility and repentance, warning of the coming “day of the Lord” when God will intervene in human history. This day can be both good and bad, as seen in the destruction of Jerusalem by the Babylonians. The readings emphasize the importance of humility, truth, and goodness, urging us to prepare for Lent by identifying and eliminating idols in our lives and strengthening our prayer life.

Seriously thinking that JESUS CHRIST would be opposed to A I because of the demonically alluring aspects of A I that should be considered. This A I is being placed before us while we have little to no idea of its inventors nor of their motives; and the art of psychological indoctrination seems exceptionally alluring.
In addition, too many times A I is being "created" and is used while it is not being identified as being A I generated.
My Sensus Catholicus is on high alert regarding A I, and I would like to ask ALL Catholics to please be alert also to this which valid Catholic exorcists must analyze, speak about their findings, and weigh in about A I for Catholics to understand regarding their expertise.

This is the moment EVERYTHING CHANGED in the Church

This is the moment EVERYTHING CHANGED in the Church
Fr. Charles Murr reveals the hidden turning point after Vatican II: a mandatory retirement wave and the influence of Cardinal Sebastiano Baggio, a suspected Freemason, led to the overnight replacement of bishops worldwide.
This structural takeover swapped shepherds for CEOs, doctrine for negotiation, and universal worship for a fragmented, corporate model of Church governance. This engineered shift explains today’s crisis of faith, authority, and Catholic identity.
