Israel has continued attacks in Lebanon despite a "ceasefire" extended through May 17.

Today, Pope Leo XIV has appointed three new U.S. bishops who have expressed criticism of President Donald Trump. Evelio Menjivar-Ayala, 55, currently auxiliary bishop for the Archdiocese of Washington, is the new bishop of Wheeling-Charleston covering West Virginia. He is a formerly undocumented immigrant who was smuggled into the United States in a car trunk. Furthermore, Leo XIV elevated the prelates Gary Studniewski, 68, and Robert Boxie, 45, as new auxiliary bishops for Washington Archdiocese. Cardinal McElroy of Washington is one of the strongest pro-homosexual infiltrators. He publicly defended Fiducia Supplicans and said U.S. opposition focused on homosexual blessings reflected “enduring animus” toward homosexuals. His Archdiocese of Washington spans Washington, D.C., and surrounding Maryland communities, placing its bishops in regular contact with policymakers, diplomats and national media. With Menjivar, Boxie and Studniewski, Leo XIV has again reinforced a leadership group …ተወሳኺ
An immigrant from El Salvador was chosen to be the shepherd of a state (West Virginia) with the lowest percentage of Spanish speakers in the country (less than 1.5%).
Being a “critic” of DJT is a good thing….a very good thing. These newly appointed Bishops may have other dire issues but in this area they’re right on target.
From Diocese of Corpus Christi At the age of 102, Bishop René Henry Gracida passed away on the morning of May 1, 2026. Bishop Mario Avilés wrote, “It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Bishop Emeritus René Henry Gracida. He served as the fifth Bishop of the Diocese of Corpus Christi from 1983 until 1997. We are deeply grateful for his faithful service as our shepherd for 14 years.” Previously, he was appointed Bishop of the Diocese of Pensacola-Tallahassee in Florida (1975–1983) and as an auxiliary bishop of the Archdiocese of Miami in Florida (1971–1975). Born in New Orleans, Louisiana, on June 9, 1923, Gracida was the second child of Enrique J. Gracida Carrizosa, a Mexican architect and engineer, and Mathilde Derbes, a fifth-generation French American Cajun. His great uncle was a vicar general of a diocese in Mexico. As a teenager, Gracida was fascinated by the Jesuit martyrs portrayed in James Fenimore Cooper’s novel The Last of the Mohicans. During World War …ተወሳኺ
It's tragic that from the very beginning there were military personnel aware of the US funded development of both the virus and the bio-weapon vaccine. But, of course, they and their families would be punished if they said anything in public.
Anglican 'Archbishopessa' Hints at Male-Only Priesthood as Injustice: After her audience with Leo XIV on Monday, Mrs Sarah Mullally, who holds the title and costume of Anglican Archbishop of Canterbury, was asked whether she had spoken with the Pope about the impossibility of female ordination. She replied evasively, stating that although she is not a politician, one of her roles is to "speak out where there is injustice". The interview took place at the Venerable English College, a Catholic seminary in Rome.
In an interview at the Venerable English College in Rome following her private audience with Pope Leo XIV, Sarah Mullally was asked whether she discussed the ministry of women with the Pope. “First and foremost, I am a pastor and a spiritual leader. But of course, in sometimes speaking as a spiritual leader and a pastor and a Christian, there are things that we will say that may be perceived as political – but I am not a politician.” “In a sense, what I’m hoping to do is to provide people with hope, praying for those who are in difficulty,” she continued. Mullally then hinted that she sees the ban on female ordinations as an “injustice,” stating that one of her tasks is “at times speaking out where there is injustice, but doing it in a way that is certainly pastoral and spiritually founded.”
Brothers—in case you have not yet grasped it—allow me to translate this for you into the very language of Marxist liberation pseudo-theology. Do you not realize that the war Prevost is waging is against Christ and His Church? This ideology teaches that the Catholic Church—Christ, His Church, and His male priesthood—are precisely the oppressors against whom they fight to defend the rendering of "justice" to (heretical) Protestants, to Jews who reject Christ, to pagans (Pachamamists), to idolatrous Muslims and all other false religions, to blasphemous atheists, and to all the unrepentant—such as sodomites, adulterers, and the like.
Solennité de saint Joseph ouvrier, époux de la bienheureuse Vierge Marie, confesseur, patron des ouvriers. Le mois de mai est consacré à la Très Sainte Vierge. Il est recommandé de faire en famille, dans les paroisses et les communautés religieuses, des exercices en son honneur et de fleurir son image. Premier vendredi du mois. Sanctoral Saint Joseph, Artisan, époux de la Bienheureuse Vierge Marie La fête de saint Joseph Artisan, fixée au 1er mai par le pape Pie XII, succède à la solennité de saint Joseph qui se célébra jusqu’en 1955. Le monde du travail prend une conscience grandissante de son importance et c’est le rôle de l’Église de lui enseigner toute sa dignité; la figure de saint Joseph y contribue merveilleusement. Cette fête de saint Joseph est une triple fête patronale: fête de l’Église, fête de la famille et du foyer, fête du travail et de l’atelier. En était-il une qui fût davantage dans l’esprit de l’Évangile et dans l’esprit des temps nouveaux? L’Église …
Carmelite community of Campiégne martyrs to close: The historic Carmelite community of Compiègne, which is now based in Jonquières, France, is closing. The six remaining nuns have announced that they will be leaving due to the ageing nature of the community and a lack of new vocations. Founded in 1641, the community is best known for the sixteen Carmelite martyrs of Compiègne who were executed during the French Revolution in 1794 and canonised by Pope Francis in 2024. The monastery in Jonquières has been home to the community since 1992. The nuns are leaving over the coming months, not all at once.
The six remaining cloistered Carmelite nuns in Jonquières, France, are closing their historic community, ending a 400-year legacy of prayer ... and martyrdom.
Oh, Tom, I love this. It is so, so true. We could benefit, perhaps, in those hard moments by going into our rooms, closing the door, getting on our knees and begging Our Blessed Mother for the right things to say and to help us be the kind of Mother she is.
Among Benedictines, the Roman Rite and the Novus Ordo coexist very peacefully side by side, said Abbot Primate Jeremias Schröder, a German Benedictine, in an interview with KNA on 30 April. Throughout the order, there are around ten abbeys that celebrate the old rite, mostly in France. The majority belong to the Congregation of Solesmes. Fontgombault Abbey was the first of a group of monasteries that celebrate according to the old rite and they are fully integrated into the Solesmes congregation. Most monasteries in that congregation use the Novus Ordo. In addition, there is Le Barroux Abbey and its daughter foundations, which were initially oriented towards the Lefebvrist movement. Following the episcopal consecrations in 1988, the monastery returned to full communion with Rome is now under the authority of Abbot Schröder. He also mentioned the community in Norcia, Italy (pictured). Novus Ordo in Fontgombault Abbot Schröder summarised: "We all treat one another with respect. As Abbot …ተወሳኺ
“Your Grace” Prevost maliciously used the name of the Holy Spirit and the name of Christ to endorse the heretical Anglican woman who poses as a bishop. This sin of malice against the Holy Spirit demonstrates that he is a blasphemer and a false prophet. The impostor Robert Prevost, mocking the male priesthood instituted by Christ, began his speech by addressing the heretic Sarah Mullally—disguised as a bishop—: “Your Grace...” Let us recall that the heretical figure of the Anglican sect—the Archbishop of Canterbury—is equivalent to a “synodal pope”: *first among equals*. Primus inter pares. «Primus inter pares The Archbishop of Canterbury holds a unique position as the first among equals within the Anglican Communion. This title, often referred to as "Primus inter pares," signifies that while the Archbishop is formally equal to other bishops, they also possess significant leadership roles and influence within the Communion. The Archbishop serves as an Instrument of Communion, …ተወሳኺ
Instead of fostering unity, the heretic—disguised as a bishop—Sarah Mullally (pro-homosexual, pro-abortion) has provoked division within the Anglican sect itself, as she holds positions contrary to the Scriptures. She contradicts the male priesthood instituted by Christ and, furthermore, defends immoral views that openly defy God's natural law, the Commandments, and Jesus Christ Himself.
Today, Leo XIV has appointed Monsignor John Gomez as Bishop of Diocese of Laredo, USA. Born in Colombia in 1975, Monsignor Gomez is a priest of the Diocese of Tyler, a canon lawyer trained at the Gregorian in Rome. He has little discernible public media footprint: no notable interviews, personal social-media presence, podcasts, or published ideological essays appear readily available online. Bishop Joseph Strickland appointed him in 2015 as vicar general of Tyler, Texas. The interesting wrinkle is that Monsignor Gomez remained after Bishop Strickland was removed: He served as delegate of the apostolic administrator from 2023–2025, then vicar general again under Bishop Gregory Kelly from 2025. CatholicVote reported in June 2023 that Monsignor Gomez helped organize meetings between the Vatican visitators and diocesan clergy, religious, and laity during the Apostolic Visitation. The Apostolic Visitation was requested by the new prefect of the Congregation for Bishops, then-Archbishop Robert …ተወሳኺ
Gomez was vicar general in Tyler under Strickland, but was nevertheless the one who arranged clergy from the diocese to meet with Vatican investigators sent to assess Strickland’s leadership.
And what about McElroy's new auxiliary bishops? One appears to be a pro-LGBT ex-military man. And the bishop of Wheeling-Charleston, an undocumented immigrant bishop, a supporter of criminal immigrants, and an enemy of the Traditional Latin Mass. What a bunch of scum; they'll all go to Hell like the pieces of shit they are.

On April 28, the German bishops published a new ‘Ratio Nationalis Institutionis Sacerdotalis’, a 203-page document reforming priestly formation in Germany. It replaces the previous 111-page guidelines from 2003. Approved by the Vatican’s Dicastery for the Clergy on March 11, the new norms are binding for Germany’s 27 dioceses. Long-Term Decline The reform comes amid a long-term collapse in priestly vocations. Germany ordained 557 priests in 1962 and 303 in 1970. By 2015, that number had fallen to 58, and by 2025 to just 25, the lowest figure on record. At the same time, the number of lay pastoral workers increased from roughly 5,200 in 1990 to 7,516 in 2021, and include today transvestites. Psychological Screening The new Ratio includes expanded sections on psychology, abuse prevention, sexuality, synodality, and pastoral practice. It mandates psychological screening for candidates and places new emphasis on emotional maturity, boundaries, and abuse prevention. The document explicitly …ተወሳኺ
The German bishops are terrified that seminarians will actually be Catholic and teach the faith in all it's beauty. That means all out war to the bishops. May they be crushed.
The Germans haven't known the fundamentals of the Apostolic Faith for over a century, so their priests couldn't become fundamentalist in German seminaries already.
The professor’s appearance is not merely gender expression but public sexual/fetishistic behavior. Social norms and activist pressure prevent people from criticizing it without being labeled bigoted. Universities apply a double standard by tolerating this while disciplining dissent on transgender issues. This broader pattern reflects institutional cowardice and contributes to public distrust in institutions.
This bearded transgender man is a lecturer at Oxford University. The University of Oxford is consistently ranked the #1 university in the world. This is who is ‘educating’ the next generation of leaders.
The church Saint-Cyriaque in Montenach, France, was severely damaged by fire on April 30. The cause of the fire remains under investigation. No injuries were reported.
L’église Saint-Cyriaque de Montenach a été gravement endommagée par un incendie le 30 avril 2026. Le feu, probablement parti d’une zone végétalisée voisine, s’est propagé à la toiture sous l’effet du vent, détruisant une grande partie de la charpente et provoquant l’effondrement partiel du clocher. Aucun blessé n’est à déplorer. Les causes exactes restent à déterminer.
This is exactly what Vatican Is doing to our Chruch! And almost no one cares. Our Church is burning down and our bishops and cardinals are hiding, don't care or are aiding the fire
