A very wise leader indeed! Many times I have heard him say, we must all work together to help one another. We must help poorer countries. He has waved billions of dollars in loans from poor countries. He has sent over 100,000 tons of grain to help them and more countries. Including to Catholics around the world. I have posted a few of those places and times. He has asked other countries to do the same thing. Instead he is laughed at and hated more for being a compassionate and benevolent leader. Who protects his people and the weaker countries when asked to help. Putin: No dominant powers in new world, everyone stands equal. #putin #russia #brics #equality ---------
This video is a short version of what I have said many times Putin has said. Help one another. Work together. Help the poor countries. And so on. When we pray, we must never forget we are all GOD'S Children! Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin.

Several voices within Vatican City have expressed unease over the risks surrounding cooperation with Italian intelligence services, reports SilereNonPossum.com. The concern is heightened by the existence of dossiers compiled in recent years on prominent figures of the Holy See, including Cardinal Angelo Becciu and other prelates. An anonymous cardinal noted that operational contacts between the Vatican Gendarmerie and Italian intelligence agencies — originally established for protection and prevention — are increasingly being used as channels to collect or circulate information about priests, bishops, cardinals, and other Vatican figures, fostering dynamics of pressure, suspicion, and internal control. Today, Leo XIV received directors and staff of Italian intelligence in private audience.
I dubbi in Vaticano: etica, dossieraggio e confini della cooperazione L’udienza, però, non è stata accolta ovunque con serenità. Diversi ambienti interni alla Città del Vaticano hanno manifestato perplessità per le criticità etiche e morali che accompagnano, in generale, l’operato dei servizi di intelligence: l’equilibrio tra tutela del bene comune e rispetto della persona, tra sicurezza e rischio di “uso” improprio dell’informazione. In questo quadro si inserisce anche il tema – oggi particolarmente sensibile – del dossieraggio che ha coinvolto, negli anni scorsi, figure di rilievo della Santa Sede, tra cui il cardinale Angelo Becciu ed altri prelati. Un cardinale ha sottolineato, inoltre, che i contatti operativi fra Gendarmeria Vaticana e apparati informativi italiani, nati per finalità di protezione e prevenzione, sono spesso diventati ambigui negli ultimi anni, venendo utilizzati come canali per raccogliere o far circolare informazioni su preti, vescovi, cardinali e …More
These men, Bergoglio, Prevost and others are tearing down the edifice that was built on Christ and stood for two thousand years, right before our eyes. And the silence is deafening
Politicians usually behave in an opposite manner to their words. Leo is a politician. My guess is the Synodal pope will shield abusive clergy from justice.
The US military's seizure of a Venezuelan oil tanker is backfiring hard on Trump says Scott Ritter, and Russia's quiet military cooperation with the Maduro government should not be underestimated according to analyst Andrei Martyanov. This video breaks down the catastrophic consequences of Trump's escalations. Scott Ritter: US Tanker Seizure DESTROYS Trump's Venezuela War, Russia Steps In
Gelsenkirchen Deputy mayorNorbert Emmerich (Photo:ScreenshotYoutube) A politician of the right-wing Alternative for Germany party (AfD) has been elected vice mayor of the German industrial city of Gelsenkirchen (North Rhine Westphalia) in a surprising vote by the local city council. In the secret ballot on 11 December, AfD councilman Norbert Emmerich received three votes from councilmen of other parties – bringing his vote count up to 23, which was enough to secure the vice mayorship. The result was a crushing defeat for Social Democrats (SPD) and Conservatives (CDU), who had joined forces to keep the right-wingers out of power and get their two candidates for vice mayor through – one SPD councilman and one CDU councilman. Gelsenkirchen’s city council has 66 members. AfD and SPD both have 20 seats, the Conservatives have 12 seats. The remaining 14 seats are shared by nine small parties with one to three councilmen each. It was not known which councilmen from other parties voted in …
When I told an elderly Catholic Italian in 2010 the story of Our Lady of Guadalupe, he said he’d never heard of it…Maybe now they know because it’s amazing how She sent a portrait of herself, not made by human hands….And of course because She was assumed into heaven, a creature, body and soul, She can go wherever and whenever She wants to go to visit her children. What a blessing!
"By uniting themselves to the divine will, the saints have enjoyed paradise by anticipation in this life. Accustoming themselves to receive all things from the hands of God, says St. Dorotheus, the men of old maintained continual serenity of soul. St. Mary Magdalene of Pazzi derived such consolation at hearing the words “will of God,” that she usually fell into an ecstasy of love."

Acting according to this pattern, one not only becomes holy but also enjoys perpetual serenity in this life. Alphonsus the Great, King of Aragon, being asked one day whom he considered the happiest person in the world, answered: “He who abandons himself to the will of God and accepts all things, prosperous and adverse, as coming from his hands.’’ “To those that love God, all things work together unto good.” Those who love God are always happy, because their whole happiness is to fulfill, even in adversity, the will of God. Afflictions do not mar their serenity, because by accepting misfortune, they know they give pleasure to their beloved Lord: “Whatever shall befall the …More
Louis IX There are two kinds of Catholics. Those who are modernist and ignorant. And then the Catholics who think they know it all and quote only some parts of the Bible. But never ever mention.... Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy. Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called children of God. For I was hungry, and you gave me to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave me to drink; I was a stranger, and you took me in: For I was hungry, and you gave me not to eat: I was thirsty, and you gave me not to drink. Then they also shall answer him, saying: Lord, when did we see thee hungry, or thirsty, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister to thee? Then he shall answer them, saying: Amen I say to you, as long as you did it "not" to one of these least, neither did you do it to me. Why does Trump arrest mostly those who work the farms? Work in factories? DC says, they arrest thousands everyday. But only the workers. They say, they caught a bunch …More
Indeed, anyone who supports lawlessness by Catholics can be considered to be in a deplorable state. The next time I visit Spain I suppose I should refuse to leave, join a gang, get on benefits and complain when I should rightly be thrown out on my keister.
Donald Trump took his bullheaded naiveté in foreign policy to a new level this month when he unveiled his 28 point “peace plan” which, as I covered last week, had all the earmarks that it was wholly or in part based on a Russian document, especially because it was completely one-sided in Russia’s favor such as rewarding Putin’s aggression by giving him all of Eastern Ukraine, removal of all sanctions, reintegration in the world economy and total amnesty for their war crimes and only gave Ukraine a week to accept it. Ukraine and the EU responded with a partial acceptance but modified the points to include greater security guarantees and rejecting all the issues that rewarded Putin as the aggressor. Trump allowed his “take it or leave it threat” to pass, and sat back as two more rounds of negotiation took place, one in Moscow with Putin, and one in Florida with Ukraine, but no solid movement took place because the Trump team was exclusively representing the Russian side. This week, …More
"Trump’s demands or lose all US support" Another empty threat. Trump earned the moniker TACO (Trump Always Cops Out) because he backs down so much. Recall, this conflict was going to end in 24 hours, according to TACO.
