Cardinal Roche’s Paper against the Mass in the Roman Rite

Cardinal Arthur Roche distributed at Leo XIV’s consistory last week a text on liturgy. Journalist Nico Spuntoni published the two-page report (facsimile below). It is a strong defence of Traditionis Custodes.
The report was one of four texts distributed to the cardinals. The others were written by Cardinals Tucho (Faith), Grech (Synod) and Baggio (Human development).
The strongest ideological rejection of the Mass in the Roman rite is in four quotations taken from Francis in the report's points 9, 10 and 11:
- “For this reason we cannot go back to that ritual form which the Council Fathers, cum Petro et sub Petro, felt the need to reform.”
- “The use of liturgical books that the Council sought to reform was… a concession that in no way envisaged their promotion.”
- “The liturgical books promulgated by the holy Popes Paul VI and John Paul II… are the sole expression of the lex orandi of the Roman Rite.”
- “I do not see how it is possible to say that one recognizes the validity of …More

Sunset Boulevard and Vatican II

Those still giddy about Vatican II appear like a straggling line of octogenarian cheerleaders—irrelevant and embarrassing.
Once upon a time, Hollywood used to produce movies. Real movies, that is. They were like serious novels but on celluloid. They were movies that explored the depths of the human condition, with its soaring peaks and dreadful valleys. It was a time when formidable creativity was placed at the service of truth and beauty. Not to put too fine a point on it, but Hollywood was the closest thing modernity had to Quattrocento Florence.
No longer. Today’s Hollywood is more a landfill for Woke ideology and degenerate carnality. This billion-dollar industry is insulated from the aspirations of the human soul, and its workaday employees (to call them actors would be an insult to that noble calling) occupy a caste system that renders them as fake as the Olympian gods of old. Excuse me, that would be an insult to the Olympian gods.
Sunset Boulevard is one of those Hollywood gems …

Mamdani Balls Up His Little Commie Fist and Rages After New York City Council Employee Detained by ICE

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani (D) expressed outrage after a City Council employee was detained by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) on Monday during what has been described as a routine immigration court appointment.
The incident took place on Long Island and prompted Mamdani to label the detention an "assault on our democracy" in a public statement posted to X. He has demanded the employee's immediate release.
The employee is reportedly a data analyst who has worked for the council for about a year. He has since been transferred to a detention facility in Manhattan.
It's absolutely fantastic to know that an illegal alien is handling data for the largest city in the United States.
"I am outraged to hear a New York City Council employee was detained in Nassau County by federal immigration officials at a routine immigration appointment," Mamdani fumed. "This is an assault on our democracy, on our city, and our values. I am calling for his immediate release and will continue …

German foreign ministry deletes poem mocking Greens politicians from staff magazine – Allah's Willing Executioners

The German foreign ministry has deleted a poem published in its internal magazine InternAA due to its satirical content.
The 32-line poem, titled Ken & Barbie, is a thinly veiled critique of the policy of former Greens party foreign minister Annalena Baerbock and her party comrade, former German vice chancellor Robert Habeck.
The poem alludes to topics such as the Greens fight against gas and oil-fired heating systems (“Heating off, pullover on”); and Habeck’s past as an author of children’s books (“A bogeyman on the rise, politics just like a bad book”). Baerbock’s excessive spending on stylists and make-up artists is also alluded to (“Around the world with high-gloss makeup, hair always perfectly weaved”).
The poem made light of Baerbock’s new job as President of the United Nations General Assembly for which, in April last year, she pushed aside Helga Schmid, the German diplomat who was originally promised the role:
“And so she leaves her homeland and nation,

The Prophetic Saint Who Foretold What the End of the World Will Be Like

When the Pope used the term ‘Angel of the Apocalypse’ in the Middle Ages, people knew he was talking about St. Vincent Ferrer
St. Vincent Ferrer earned the title preaching the Gospel powerfully and persuasively, often on the Final Judgment and the coming of the Antichrist. Even Pius II’s Bull of Canonization called St. Vincent Ferrer “the Angel of the Apocalypse, flying through the heavens to announce the day of the Last Judgment, to evangelize the inhabitants of the earth.”
St. Vincent died on April 5, 1419, yet his words remain as powerful and necessary as ever. Before looking at his preaching on the Last Judgment, the Antichrist and the End of the World, let’s understand how powerful a preacher he was all over Europe, beginning in his native Spain, by looking at a mere speck of who he reached and the miracles he performed.
As a Dominican priest, Vincent Ferrer preached in his own native language or Latin, yet wherever he went, everyone miraculously understood his every word as if …

Russian Intelligence Calls Greek Patriarch Bartholomew "Antichrist"

Russia’s Foreign Intelligence Service issued a rare public attack on Greek Patriarch Bartholomew I of Constantinople. He has been accused of undermining Orthodox unity and cooperating with Western intelligence services.
The statement was published on the official website of the Sluschba Wneschnei Raswedki (SVR), a successor of the KGB. It marks a sharp escalation in the long-running conflict between Moscow and Constantinople.
In theological language without modern precedent for a state intelligence body, the SVR referred to Bartholomew as the “Antichrist in a cassock”,” accusing him of deliberately fostering schism within global Orthodoxy.
The agency alleged that the Patriarch seeks to weaken the Russian Orthodox Church by dismantling jurisdictions historically linked to Moscow and replacing them with structures dependent on the Ecumenical Patriarchate in Constantinople.
Behind the accusation lies Bartholomew’s 2019 decision to grant autocephaly to the Orthodox Church of Ukraine. That …More

Australia’s New Hate Speech Bill Is Reckless, Contradictory, and Repressive

On January 12, Australia’s Attorney-General Michelle Rowland stepped to the podium and announced what she called “the toughest hate laws Australia has ever seen.”
The government plans to push its Combatting Antisemitism, Hate and Extremism Bill 2026 through Parliament on January 20, turning Australia’s speech laws into something that reads more like a psychological test than a criminal code.
We obtained a copy of the bill for you here (and the memorandum here.)
The same week Prime Minister Anthony Albanese was praising Iranians “standing up for their human rights,” his government was preparing to criminalize speech at home even when no one’s rights or feelings had actually been touched.
The bill’s centerpiece is a new racial vilification offense. It bans “publicly promoting or inciting hatred” based on race, color, or national or ethnic origin, with penalties of up to five years in prison.
The measure’s core novelty is what it removes: proof of harm.

Former Irish president claims infant baptism violates ‘children’s rights’ - LifeSite

Mon Jan 12, 2026 - 12:18 pm ESTMon Jan 12, 2026 - 12:30 pm EST
(LifeSiteNews) — The former president of Ireland claimed that infant baptism violates children’s human rights.
The Irish Times published an excerpt from a recent talk by Mary McAleese at University College Cork (UCC), in which the heterodox Catholic made her case against infant baptism.
“Throughout the world, there continues a long-standing, systemic and overlooked severe restriction on children’s rights with regard to religion,” the former president of Ireland wrote.
“It restricts children’s rights as set out in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) in 1948 and United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) in 1989, to which both Ireland and the Holy See – which governs the Catholic Church and is effectively the author of canon law – are State Parties.”
McAleese, who was president of Ireland from 1997 to 2011, argued that children are restricted in their religious freedom by infant baptism, to …

Pfizer sued by 2,100 women over brain tumor risk linked to Depo-Provera shot – NaturalNews.com

Pfizer faces lawsuits for not warning of Depo-Provera's brain tumor risk.
A major study links long-term use to a 500% higher risk of meningioma surgery.
Over 2,100 U.S. women are suing, citing permanent disabilities from the tumors.
Pfizer only added a U.S. warning recently, lagging behind other nations.
The company denies the claims and stands by the drug's safety.
Pharmaceutical giant Pfizer is headed to court, accused of failing to warn millions of women that a popular birth control injection could dramatically increase their risk of developing life-altering brain tumors. More than 2,100 women across the United States are now suing the company, claiming its contraceptive Depo-Provera left them with benign brain tumors that can cause blindness, seizures, and memory loss. With a pivotal trial set for December, the lawsuits allege Pfizer long knew of the risks but kept silent, prioritizing profits over patient safety while regulators lagged behind other nations.

Trump's Brute Force Threat /Patrick Hennignsen & Lt Col Daniel Davis

Trump's Brute Force Threat /Patrick Hennignsen & Lt Col Daniel Davis
Patrick Henningsen argues that U.S. sanctions are deliberately designed to harm civilian populations—cutting off fuel, causing hyperinflation, and creating widespread suffering—not to change government behavior. According to this view, sanctions historically fail to alter regimes and instead aim to provoke popular uprisings, which are then exploited through propaganda, provocateurs, and ultimately military intervention. The speaker claims this pattern has been repeatedly applied in countries such as Libya, Venezuela, Syria, and Iran.
They contend that President Trump is following this same playbook with Iran: issuing threats, rejecting compromise or genuine negotiations, and laying the groundwork for military strikes. Trump’s warnings that any Iranian retaliation would be met with overwhelming force are interpreted as adopting an “Israeli doctrine” of deterrence through brute force, civilian punishment, decapitation …More

Sheen, who came within three weeks of a scheduled beatification in 2019, is expected to be formally beatified in September, according to sources close to the process.

Sheen’s scheduled December 2019 beatification was delayed after Rochester Bishop Salvatore Matano asked the Vatican to postpone the process, over concerns that Sheen — who served as Rochester’s diocesan bishop from 1966 to 1969 — might be accused of mishandling cases of sexual abuse or misconduct.
At specific issue was Gerard Guli, a former Rochester priest, who was accused …

Music, drink, dance, pork, and dogs — five outrages of Islamists

Palmer’s, a bar on Minneapolis’ West Bank, has been a fixture of the community it has served for 119 years. Locals even called it “the heart of the city” because it brought people together. It has now been permanently closed. It is to become a mosque.
Islamist ideology bans alcohol, music, and dancing. Pork and dogs are considered dirty and are frowned upon at best.
It is no wonder that most countries that are in the thrall of Islamism, and are populated by these kinds of Muslims are dark places that have not evolved much from the 7th or 8th centuries.
Traditionally, we in the West have proposed a toast to those we love, to honor someone, to recognize or enshrine a memory, or to acknowledge the passing of a loved one — or of time.
Usually with a beverage containing alcohol. We may drink to someone's memory, or to a principle with which we agree.
Music is the soundtrack of civilization.
We dance to express joy or to bond with another.

Bishop Fernando Rifan to Remain in Office Until 2027

The governance of Bishop Fernando Arêas Rifan, 75, of the Old Rite Apostolic Administration in Campos, Brazil, has been extended until spring 2027. He announced the extension in a pastoral letter published on January 11 on AdApostolica.org.
Monsignor Rifan recalled his meetings with Leo XIV in the autumn.
On 15 November 2025, he was received in private audience by Leo XIV, to whom he presented his resignation and the situation of the Apostolic Administration.
Leo XIV asked whether Bishop Rifan also celebrates the Novus Ordo. “I told him that in our churches we celebrate the ancient rite, but that when invited I concelebrate with our diocesan bishop, Bishop Roberto Paz, using the current rite, and likewise when I or our priests, when invited, celebrate Mass in the churches of the dioceses, we celebrate the Mass in the current form.”
Bishop Rifan on Leo XIV’s reaction: “He showed himself satisfied.”
On 17 November, Monsignor Rifan was received at the Dicastery for Bishops. There, he …More

EXCLUSIVE: Catholic speaker Jason Evert discusses his son's miraculous healing from cancer - LifeSite

Tue Jan 6, 2026 - 4:14 pm ESTWed Jan 7, 2026 - 7:09 am EST
(LifeSiteNews) — Catholic speaker Jason Evert spoke with LifeSiteNews Editor-in-Chief John-Henry Westen about the unexpected, miraculous healing of his 21-year-old son after he had been diagnosed with cancer, in an exclusive interview.
Evert, a prominent Catholic chastity speaker, described receiving the heartbreaking news that John Paul, his oldest son, had been diagnosed with stage 2 Hodgkin lymphoma on Christmas Eve and would need to undergo chemotherapy and other treatment. But, after thousands of faithful offered prayers for him as he began treatment, including a group of Franciscan friars who prayed for the cancer to be “melted” in the hospital, a biopsy that stunned the doctors showed no cancer present, but instead a highly treatable fungal infection.
Remarkably, during surgery after the doctors had revised their diagnosis, they noticed that the growth masses that had previously been found near his chest and collarbone …

Three years after his death, Director of the American Research and Archival Institution, Tom Blanton while commenting on the move of Arkhipov said; “A man called Vasili Arkhipov saved the world.”
In 2017, years after his death, Arkhipov was honoured with the “Future of Life Award” by a US-based organisation called Future of Life Institute whose members of the advisory board included prominent figures like Elon Musk and Morgan Freeman.
Born in Vladivostok in 1939, Stanislav Petrov was raised to follow in the footsteps of his father, who fought in World War II. He enlisted in the Soviet Air Defence Forces in the early 1970s, and he ultimately rose to the rank of lieutenant colonel. Petrov’s roles included monitoring the new early warning system that detected ballistic missile attacks from enemy countries, including the U.S.

How a Russian soldier prevented World War III 59 years ago

How a Russian soldier prevented World War III 59 years agoOne levelheaded decision taken by Vasily Alexandrovich Arkhipov about six decades ago today may have changed the fate of the world.
Vasily Arkhipov is credited with preventing a Soviet nuclear strike during the Cuban Missile Crisis. (FILE PHOTO)
Fifty-nine years ago, a senior Russian submarine officer, Vasili Alexandrovich Arkhipov, refused to fire a nuclear torpedo at an American aircraft carrier and likely prevented a third world war and nuclear destruction.
It was an era when the two greatest world powers, the US and Soviet Union, were at the brink of war over the presence of Soviet nuclear-armed missiles in Cuba, just 90 miles off the coast of Florida.
The premier of the Soviet Union at the time, Nikita Khrushchev, while promising to defend Cuba with the USSR's military, may have miscalculated how severe the US' reaction would be.
In July 1962, after learning about Soviet Union's missile shipments to Cuba and the construction …

Macron’s France Fails To Protect Its Citizens Again: Algerian Migrant With Deportation Order Arrested for Raping 15-Year-Old Girl – Allah's Willing Executioners

France, yet again, in what has become a now-familiar but deeply unsettling pattern, was shaken this week by another crime that has reignited public anger over mass migration and the state’s failure to enforce its own laws.
In the town of Melun, south of Paris, a 15-year-old girl was allegedly raped by a foreign national from North Africa who was already under an order to leave French territory, the French outlet Valeurs Actualles reported.
The suspect, a 22-year-old Algerian migrant, had been living without a fixed address and was known to authorities for previous offenses. Despite being subject to an expulsion order, he was still free to move through public transport and residential neighborhoods.
According to police accounts, the teenager was approached and harassed on a bus late in the evening. After she got off, the man reportedly followed her into a public square, where the assault is said to have taken place.
After the attack, the suspect fled but continued contacting the victim …
