From a former undocumented immigrant to the nation's youngest prelate, Pope Leo XIV's recent bishop appointments reflect a diverse Catholic Church in his homeland. Since his election on May 8 last year, Pope Leo XIV has named numerous bishops to fill posts around the world, also in the USA. Before becoming pope, Cardinal Robert Prevost was himself in charge of proposing new bishops for established Latin Rite dioceses around the world. So, while such decisions are never taken lightly, Leo XIV is particularly keyed in to the needs and criteria involved. As of May 6, 2026, he has made 26 appointments of bishops for his homeland. This includes raising priests to the bishopric, elevating auxiliary bishops to new dioceses, and transferring ordinary bishops to new sees. Eleven of these bishops — 42% — were born outside the United States. Sixteen of them are under 60 years old, and the youngest is 45. Only three come from religious communities: a Jesuit, a Benedictine, and an Oratorian. They …
Citing John Paull II’s Ecclesia Dei, Tucho threatens SSPX with excommunication if episcopal consecrations proceed: “The episcopal ordinations announced by the Priestly Fraternity of St. Pius X do not have the corresponding papal mandate…”
Today, Cardinal Tucho Fernández, soft porn author and Prefect of the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith, issued a statement on the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X. The text reads: “Regarding the Priestly Fraternity of St. Pius X, we reiterate what has already been communicated. The episcopal ordinations announced by the Priestly Fraternity of St. Pius X do not have the corresponding papal mandate. This act constitutes ‘a schismatic act’ (John Paul II, Ecclesia Dei, n. 3) and ‘formal adherence to schism constitutes a grave offense against God and entails the excommunication established by the law of the Church’ (ibid., 5c; cf. Pontifical Council for Legislative Texts, Explanatory Note, August 24, 1996). The Holy Father continues to pray that the Holy Spirit will enlighten those responsible for the Priestly Fraternity of Sts Pius X so that they may reconsider the their grave decision.” #newsTtiovyfbhg

Q: Why do you think Catholics such as these wish to oppose what Courage does when the apostolate follows the Church’s teaching? Father Gannon: That question merits a very in-depth answer, but in short: In the last 60 years, we have seen a global attack on the Church’s moral teaching like never before in history. The revisionist moral theologies that emerged from the 1960s sought to revolutionize Church teaching to accommodate the secular culture of the so-called sexual revolution. St. John Paul II wrote clearly and decisively in Veritatis Splendor and the Catechism about the immutable nature of the moral law as directly tied to the anthropology of man and woman as the images of God. The personal struggles of man and woman in living the Gospel indicate the subjective experiences that must be pastorally treated with charity and forbearance, but also, as with a medical doctor, the truth of the remedy must be made clear. The call of all people to chastity and reverence for marriage as only …More
Father Brian Gannon argues how ‘intellectually dishonest’ document departs from Scripture and 2,000 years of Church teaching on human sexuality. The final report of the Synod on Synodality’s Study Group 9 has drawn widespread criticism since its publication last week — not least for what its authors wrote about Courage International. A respected and canonically approved Catholic apostolate, since 1980 Courage International has been providing spiritual support to men and women experiencing same-sex attractions who wish to live chastely according to Church teaching. In its critique of Courage, the report failed to include perspectives from anyone involved with the apostolate and erroneously claimed that its work involved so-called “reparative therapy.” “Since no Courage representative was involved in the process, the study group became problematic and seems to contradict what synodality intends: the greater engagement of all relevant voices,” said Father Brian Gannon, Courage …

Bishop Athanasius Schneider said a Vatican Synod report suggesting homosexual relationships may not be sinful echoes the serpent in Eden and “crosses from orthodoxy into heresy.” He also claimed efforts to legitimize homosexuality were already present at Pope Francis’ first Synod on the Family.
Bishop Athanasius Schneider criticized the Final Report of Study Group No. 9 on homosexuality in an interview with Diane Montagna on May 12. The report - published by the Secretariat of the Synod of Bishops, an organ of the Holy See - has "stooped to promoting the propaganda of a global sexual ideology". Thus, the Holy See is “collaborating with lobbyists in a true revolt against God’s work of creation.” Salami Tactics to Declare Homosexuality Acceptable Monsignor Schneider recalls that the legitimization of homosexuality was already on the agenda at Pope Francis’ first Synod on the Family (2015). This culminated in the promulgation of Fiducia Supplicans (2023): “Fiducia Supplicans is a mockery of common sense. It speaks of the possibility of blessing homosexual couples, not officially and liturgically, but spontaneously. According to the document, the object of the blessing is the homosexual couple, and not their relationship. But being a ‘couple’ is derived precisely from the …More

The Director of the World Health Organization, Dr. Tedros, says every country in the world is now expected to fall in line with his International Health Regulations because of hantavirus. He says it is now a moral obligation for nations to submit to and believe in his Global Health Order. "It's only when we support each other that we can respond more effectively to viruses and outbreaks." "Countries are expected to cooperate based on International Health Regulations."
Cardinal Pietro Parolin says the Holy See is in “dialogue” with the German bishops over their handbook for blessings: “Let us hope we never have to get to sanctions, and problems can be resolved peacefully, as they should be in the Church.”
It is premature to foresee an intervention by the Holy See regarding the German bishops on the blessings for homosexuals. Cardinal Pietro Parolin said this at the Augustinianum to present the book “Robert Francis Prevost. Free Under Grace”, as reported by VaticanNews.va on May 6. At this moment, Cardinal Parolin said, there is “dialogue”: “Let us see what happens.” He reiterated that the decision belongs to the Pope. “But in any case," he continued, “we have already for some time begun a dialogue, each expressing our own views.” Cardinal Parolin hopes that sanctions will not be necessary and that problems may be resolved peacefully, as should be the case in the Church. #newsZztiabfumv

“Why would the Synod of Bishops publish interviews with men who reject Catholic teaching on the nature of marriage, inspired as it is by the Holy Spirit, as part of its effort to discern the workings of the Holy Spirit in the Church today?” asked Fr. Gerald E. Murray writing at The Catholic Thing on Saturday. “The Synod has become the Holy See’s officially sponsored agent of destruction of Catholic doctrine, which is disparaged and dismissed as being deductive principles set forth in an immutable and rigid manner – sterile, regressive and ossified statements, as being “pre-packaged” doctrines, which are merely abstractions and theories,” Fr. Murray asserted.

Cardinal Gerhard Müller has strongly criticized parts of the Synod on Synodality report, warning that some Church leaders are using the synodal process to introduce gender ideology and weaken Catholic teaching on marriage and sexuality. Müller argued that blessings for same-sex or irregular unions are not simply pastoral issues, but represent a deeper shift away from Christian anthropology and doctrine. He also warned against “woke” ideology entering the Church, insisting that true mercy cannot contradict the Gospel or the call to conversion. “The Church will not save the world by imitating it,” Müller said, stressing that the mission of the Church remains fidelity to Christ and the full proclamation of the Gospel.
However, the real concern isn’t about Catholicity but their jobs, how much they are paid, the amount of discretionary spending, and whether they will still in charge of the board budget.
Thu May 7, 2026 - 12:44 pm EDTThu May 7, 2026 - 2:33 pm EDT (LifeSiteNews) — Cardinal Victor Manuel Fernández, the prefect of the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith (DDF), confirmed that the Vatican had rejected the German bishops’ conference’s (DBK) proposed official guidelines for the formal “blessings” of homosexual and other irregular “couples” in a 2024 letter. In a statement to Vatican News published May 6, Fernández confirmed that back in 2024, the DDF wrote a letter to Bishop Stephan Ackermann of Trier in Germany saying that the DBK’s proposed guidelines for the “blessing” of homosexual “couples” contradict the 2023 Vatican document Fiducia Supplicans, which allows for the spontaneous, “non-liturgical blessing” of homosexuals. The cardinal prefect stressed that the text, which was published by the Vatican on May 4, also served as a rejection of the DBK’s official guidelines for the “blessings” of homosexual “couples,” the divorced and civilly “remarried,” …
May God have mercy on us, for our Church has fallen into the hands of our enemies. What a monumental tragedy it is to witness the abomination of two apostates usurping the office of Pope—Pachamama worshippers openly promoting the practice of sodomy: the Great Rebellion against God and the Church! To suffer the misfortune of beholding two demons incarnate—enablers of pedophiles—who have trampled upon the laws of God and violated every standard of decency. To be forced to watch as they corrupt the youth with total impunity. First, the apostate Bergoglio, who—without any fear of God—dared to refer to cross-dressing homosexuals posing as women as "girls"; and who promoted sacrilegious Communion for sodomites and adulterers, as well as pseudo-blessings for those unrepentant apostates living in concubinage. And then the other impostor, Prevost, who follows in Bergoglio’s diabolical footsteps—and does not stop there—but rather, shamelessly despising the Priesthood and the Papacy instituted …More
Pope Leo XIV met today with Cardinal Marx at the Vatican It comes after a week in which the Vatican publicly rebuked the possibility of same sex blessings as proposed by Marx and also floated the possibility of disciplinary actions if needed.
Pope Leo XIV received Cardinal Reinhard Marx at the Vatican—just a few days after Rome issued a strong criticism of the ritualized blessings of same-sex couples in Germany.
Right, strong criticism of RITUALIZED blessings, while that same Rome sees no sin in sodomy. Germans are just a bit too forward about the same things that Vatican is pushing and it's hypocritical to blame them while being quiet about Vatican.
