The Russian Navy Deterred Estonia From Boarding Its “Shadow Fleet”

Escort missions to India and China might also deter the US and the UK from doing the same outside the Baltic, but even so, they might encourage Ukraine to ramp up drone attacks in that event.
Commander of the Estonian Navy Ivo Vark told
Reuters that Estonia won’t board vessels that are part of Russia’s “shadow fleet” anymore since “The risk of military escalation is just too ⁠high.” He elaborated that “The Russian military presence here in the Gulf of Finland has become much, much more ‌evident” due to new permanent Russian naval patrols but “in the Atlantic Ocean and also the North Sea there’s very little Russian presence.” Its vessels are thus more likely to be boarded there than in the Baltic.
The aforementioned patrols are the result of Chairman of the Naval Board Nikolai Patrushev’s efforts, which he spoke about in an interview in mid-February that was analyzed here at the time. Reuters also reported that “Reuters reporters aboard an Estonian navy vessel in the Gulf of …

“Plateau de Fromages”

– Folha de S. Paulo, August 27, 1969 -
by Plinio Corrêa de Oliveira
A few years ago, international communism stood as a unified doctrinal, cultural, and political force.
Later, this monolith began to break apart. In Europe, the Yugoslav and Albanian divisions appeared. In Asia, a large rift formed with China. This caused communist circles worldwide to split into two opposing factions: pro-Russian and pro-Chinese. The 1968 Marcusian revolution in Paris and the Czechoslovak unrest highlighted the difference between liberal and anarchic neo-communism and the fiercely authoritarian Soviet communism.
While all this was happening outside Russia, the monolithic nature of communism also underwent significant changes within the country. Khrushchev-era “thawed” communists appeared alongside traditional Stalinists. Then emerged post-Khrushchev communists, a seemingly mixed blend of Khrushchevism and Stalinism. Post-Khrushchev factions further split into doves and hawks. Ultimately, according to …More

Tucho: "Dishonest to Claim that Leo XIV Erases Francis"

Leo XIV has repeatedly stressed continuing Francis’s teaching, Cardinal Tucho Fernández told IlGiornale.it on 13 April.
He gives examples: At the January consistory, Leo XIV asked the cardinals to reread Evangelii Gaudium, and to reflect on its application again. Furthermore, Leo XIV has convened the presidents of the episcopal conferences to resume the reception of Amoris Laetitia.
"These are signs that help us understand that Francis is not gone."
Tucho’s view is that “it is dishonest to claim that Pope Leo intends to undo the work of Francis’s pontificate.”
"There are many points of common ground between Leo XIV and Francis; more than opposition, one should see complementarity."
Additionally, Tucho recalled that when Francis first called him as Pope, he said, “I am Bergoglio.”

The continued retention of Kissy himself as the Prefect of the Holy Office is the actual and best empirical proof of the veracity of this statement by him. Leo walks in Francis’ shoes.

Communion in the hand is disobeying Jesus

Jesus specified the form of Holy Communion as "Take and Eat", not "Open your mouth and stick your tongue". Communion on the tongue is simply another tick of satin to encourage Catholics to disobey Jesus in mass.

UK Bans Pretend "Stepsister" Porn Months After Actual Muslim Incest Protections

Authored by Steve Watson via modernity.news,
The British government has banned “step” porn, where the porn stars pretend to be related in a scripted format. Meanwhile, a bill earlier this year to ban first cousin marriage was rejected.
The crackdown targets consenting adults role-playing taboo family scenarios, including step-family tropes.
Offenders face prison time, and platforms must block UK access or face Ofcom fines. It’s sold as “protecting children” and aligning online rules with offline laws.
Yet the same government draws a firm line at stopping the real thing when it involves actual blood relatives.
First-cousin marriage remains fully legal in the UK. A Tory MP’s bill to prohibit it was blocked. Successive governments, including the current one, have opted for “education” and genetic counselling instead of legislation.
An NHS report last year even highlighted supposed “benefits” of first-cousin marriage – stronger family networks and economic stability – before being …

Cardinal Müller: “Israel’s Right to Exist Must Never Be Called into Question”

As a political, economic, technological, and military superpower, the United States bears a distinctive responsibility to contain dangerous regimes and dictatorships that pose a grave threat to the world. This position was articulated by Cardinal Gerhard Müller on Kath.net on 14 April.
He continues: “In light of present circumstances, the brutal crimes committed against one’s own people and against other nations must be confronted - not only through economic sanctions, but, where necessary, by military means.”
Cardinal Müller even draws a parallel with the Nazis: “The policy of appeasement toward Adolf Hitler proved catastrophic and exacted a devastating toll in World War II.”
Turning to Iran, Müller states: “The Iranian regime must be unequivocally denounced worldwide as a perversion of religion - religion which is ordered toward the worship of God and must never, in any form, be exploited to justify killing of innocent people.”
He envisions a just peace as one in which “the …More

Priestly Society of Saint Peter on Priestly Society of Saint Pius X's episcopal consecrations

Are the consecrations prescribed by the SSPX legitimate?
The work of a group of theologians (Theologus), this article received a strong endorsement from Cardinal Sarah:
“A huge thank you for this illuminating text. It will enlighten souls desiring to live their Faith in the Truth, that is, in Christ and in His Church. Since 2001, I have been among those who assist the Sovereign Pontiff in choosing candidates for the episcopate, after a long and meticulous investigation of each candidate. I am painfully surprised and shocked that a simple decision by a Superior of a Community can ordain ‘truly Catholic Bishops.’ Thank you for this wonderful, clear, and well-researched text. We must know that it is not we who save souls. It is Christ alone who saves. We are merely instruments in His Hands. Let us continue to pray that the Body of Christ will not be torn apart again.” Cardinal Robert Sarah

Transalpine Redemptorists Organise "Imperfect General Council"

“We are working in our own small way, with our limited manpower, to bring about an Imperfect General Council that will publicly recognise the present Catholic disaster that has no way out but through,” said Father Michael Mary, head of the Congregation of the Transalpine Redemptorists, in an interview with ThePress.co.nz on 10 April.
The group was expelled from the Christchurch Diocese in New Zealand in July 2024 following allegations, primarily concerning unauthorised exorcism practices. The priests denied any wrongdoing. In October 2025, the community repudiated “false shepherds” and recent papal documents without explicitly declaring the papal office vacant.
Their proposed “council” would consist of bishops acting without papal authority, though no names have been given: “There are Catholics all over the world left in ‘Catholic bunkers’ who know what is going on. It is a matter of reaching out to them.”

As war rages, Israel and Lebanon hold first direct talks since 1993

Israel and Lebanon hold first direct talks since 1993
Lebanon and Israel have held their first diplomatic talks in over three decades, a rare encounter aimed at ending fighting between Israel and the Iran-backed Hezbollah group.
US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, who mediated, said it was a "historic opportunity" to end Hezbollah's influence.
A US statement said the two sides had agreed to launch direct negotiations, at a time and place to be determined. Israel said it wanted to disarm all non-state terror groups - a reference to Hezbollah.
Lebanon called for a ceasefire and measures to address its humanitarian crisis. The two countries do not have diplomatic relations, and the last direct, high-level talks between them took place in 1993.
Over 2,000 people have been killed since Israeli military operations in Lebanon began on 2 March, just days after US and Israeli strikes began in Iran.
While the two sides were meeting in Washington on Tuesday, Hezbollah claimed at least 24 attacks on …

If you act spontaneously and without thinking, neither friend nor foe will be able to guess your intentions. This is how the basis for the U.S. president’s decisions can be described. We are currently witnessing a blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, which was ordered personally by the U.S. president.
The Liberia-flagged bulk carrier Christianna crossed after unloading 74,000 tons of corn at the Iranian port of Bandar Imam Khomeini, passing Iran’s Larak Island in the strait around 1600 GMT on April 13, Kpler data showed.
A second ship, the Comoros-flagged tanker Elpis, was near Larak Island around 1100 GMT and cleared the strait about 1600 GMT. It was loaded with 31,000 tons of methanol, having left the Iranian port of Bushehr on March 31, Kpler data showed. Source.

Saint Pierre Gonzalez, dit saint Elme, Dominicain (1190-1246)
Pierre Gonzalez naquit, l’an 1190, dans la ville d’Astorga, en Espagne, d’une famille distinguée. Son oncle, évêque de Palencia, charmé de ses talents, le pourvut d’un canonicat et le fit ensuite nommer doyen du Chapitre de sa cathédrale. Le jour de sa prise de possession, Gonzalez, naturellement vaniteux, voulut traverser la ville sur un cheval superbement paré. C’est là que la Providence l’attendait: sa vanité se repaissait des applaudissements de la foule, quand le cheval se cabra, renversant dans la boue l’orgueilleux cavalier, au milieu des huées de la populace. Cette humiliation fut un coup de la grâce. Pierre se releva tout confus, et dit à haute voix: « Puisque le monde se moque de moi, je me moquerai de lui à mon tour. » Il tint parole.

Yet Another Historic Church Torched In Canada

Authored by Steve Watson via Modernity.news,
Another historic church lies in ashes after a major fire tore through Saint-Romain, Quebec, last night. The building, whose construction began in 1893, is the latest casualty in a relentless campaign against Canada’s Christian institutions that has seen arsons more than double since 2021.
The post, which included video of the blaze, has ignited widespread outrage across X, with people quick to assume who the likely culprits are.
That CBC News investigation documented the surge in detail. A subsequent Macdonald-Laurier Institute report confirmed arson attacks on religious institutions more than doubled from pre-2021 baselines, with fewer than 4% of cases resulting in charges—leaving over 96% unsolved.
Western nations are watching the same erosion. In the UK, churches face more than 10 crimes every single day.

Politiker auf beiden Seiten des Atlantiks beeilen sich, “Hass” zu verurteilen, wenn es zu ihrem Narrativ passt, doch die Zerstörung christlicher Wahrzeichen löst Achselzucken oder Ausreden aus, obwohl die meisten Fälle ungelöst bleiben.
Die Masseneinwanderung geht ungehindert weiter. Kritiker werden durch Gesetze zur Meinungsäußerung mundtot gemacht, während Kirchen, das Rückgrat westlicher Gemeinschaften, ausgelöscht werden.
Die Antworten auf X haben die Frustration eingefangen. Ein Benutzer bemerkte: “Kirchen brennen auf der ganzen Welt und doch sagen sie uns immer wieder, dass es nichts zu sehen gibt. Komisch, dass die Brandstifter nie gefasst werden.” Ein anderer warnte: “Das ist es, was Muslime tun, wenn sie neue Gebiete erobern. Sie zerstören die religiösen Stätten des eroberten Volkes.

Cushingite liberalism, of Pope Leo and the cardinals and bishops, is now irrational, schismatic and obsolete. It no more is an option : the mainline Church becomes traditionalist

Cushingite liberalism, of Pope Leo and the cardinals and bishops, is now irrational, schismatic and obsolete. It no more is an option : the mainline Church becomes traditionalist
Archbishop Lefebvre and Fr. Leonard Feeney, traditionalists, did not mention Vatican Council II interpreted rationally, which would be aligned with the EENS of the Church Councils, with no exceptions. This is now a discovery in the Catholic Church.
The mainline Church becomes traditionalist, but not Cushingite traditionalists like the SSPX but Feeneyite traditionalists like the St. Benedict Center in Richmond, New Hampshire, USA.
The main line Catholic Church returns to Tradition, with Vatican Council II rational and is no more liberal.

Even though I affirm the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus (EENS) with no known exceptions, the real issue now in the Catholic Church, is Vatican Council II, having no exceptions for EENS. This is troublesome for the SSPX priests and laity at their St. Catherine of …More
