Bishops who prayed over President Donald Trump in the Oval Office on October 22 are distancing themselves from the event, accusing the White House of exploiting their prayer for political purposes just twelve days before the midterm elections. Denver Archbishop James Golka, who led the prayer, denied endorsing Trump or the Republicans. He said the bishops had not authorized publication of the footage and expressed sadness that a sacred act had been manipulated. Milwaukee Archbishop Jeffrey Grob publicly apologized, saying he regretted ignoring his reservations. Des Moines Bishop William Joensen admitted he had been naive and accused others of partisan exploitation. The bishops said they expected private discussions on immigration, religious-worker visas, human dignity and education. Instead, they were directed to stand behind Trump for prayer. The meeting was arranged with help from Mario Enzler of the conservative Heritage Foundation, architect of Project 2025. Enzler previously resigned …Daplü
They should also apologize for raising their carbon footprint by flying there. Pope Leo is going to have to bless another huge ice cube to offset the damage.
He's right here ~ Archbp. Marcel Lefebvre ~ For it is a masterstroke of Satan to get Catholics to disobey the whole Tradition in the name of obedience.
A Vatican source has denied media reports that Pope Leo XIV will undergo immunotherapy. The denial follows a report published by Brazil’s GloboNews on October 23. It claimed that the Pope would receive pembrolizumab, an immunotherapy drug, to reduce the risk of cancer recurrence. The denial was reported on Sunday by the Rome-based Catholic news agency I.MEDIA and the Italian news agency Adnkronos, both citing unnamed Vatican sources. #newsFtvwkchrit

A Secretariat of State letter dated September 30, signed by Archbishop Paolo Rudelli and published by Diane Montagna, confirms that the Vatican rejected a request by organizers of the Ad Petri Sedem pilgrimage. Having already been denied permission to celebrate a traditional Latin Mass in St. Peter’s Basilica, the organizers instead requested permission to enter in procession, pray above the tomb of St. Peter, and adore the Blessed Sacrament. The Basilica’s sacristy had indicated that 1 p.m. would be possible, subject to approval by the Secretariat of State. The Vatican’s response: “Reverend Father, In response to your letter of 8 September concerning the international Ad Petri Sedem pilgrimage, I inform you that it is not possible to grant your request. Please accept, Reverend Father, the expression of my religious and devoted regards. † Paolo Rudelli” #newsPnguweoskc
This is (of course) not a (completely) Catholic view on the topic, but that's not the point here. -- The point here is that ONLY a JEW, after accepting CHRISTIANITY (like the author of the video) is really able to EXPLAIN the mystery of "ISLAM" (a false religion, a death cult, a political movement born out of ENVY).
Iran Activates Its "Dead Hand" Doctrine Iranian supreme authorities have ordered the country's military leadership to fully activate the decentralized "mosaic defense" doctrine amid a growing likelihood of a joint US-Israeli strike against the Islamic Republic. According to reports, local commanders have received detailed lists of targets, covering US economic and political assets throughout the region, which could become targets in the event of a war. The "dead hand" or "mosaic defense" doctrine is designed to allow Iran to continue fighting even if its central leadership is defeated. The IRGC is organized into 31 largely autonomous provincial commands, each of which has its own weaponry, supplies, and decision-making authority, allowing military commanders to make decisions without waiting for approval from Tehran. theAxisofTruth

"Uniting spiritually" with pagans and heretics? At today’s Angelus, Leo XIV remembered the interreligious Assisi scandal of 1986. He said: “The day after tomorrow, October 27, let us unite spiritually with the heads of Churches and religious leaders who will gather in Assisi on the 40th anniversary of the meeting convened by Saint John Paul II.”
Papa leone all'Angelus invita a pregare per lo "Spirito di Assisi" • Sito: HOME - COMMUNITY OF SANT'EGIDIO All’Angelus in Piazza San Pietro, Leone XIV sottolinea che serve un cuore nuovo "capace di accogliere e di vivere il grande comandamento dell'amore"; un comandamento che non è un obbligo nè una imposizione ma l'esigenza propria del desiderio dell'uomo di essere in comunione con Dio
«THE SPIRIT OF ASSISI» Card. Roger Etchegaray «THE SPIRIT OF ASSISI» The spirit of Assisi: it was Pope John Paul II who coined the expression. Since October 27th 1986, this "spirit" has been felt a little everywhere, losing none of the power of its first flowering. I have no intention of playing the old gardener, but, having been a fascinated witness of its germination in the Pope's thought and the privileged artisan of its blooming, I feel I can affirm: on that day I heard the world's heart-beat. A brief meeting on a hill, a word or two, a gesture, sufficed for fragmented humanity to joyfully rediscover its original unity. When, at the end of a grey morning, a rainbow appeared in the sky over Assisi, those leaders of religions, called together by the audacious prophet of one of them, Pope John Paul II, saw in it a pressing call to brotherhood: no one could doubt that it was prayer which had won this visible sign of concord between God and the descendants of Noah. At San Rufino Cathedral …Daplü
Pepe Escobar October 19, 2026 Exclusive: What’s really happening at the Iran-Pakistan border There’s no way to fight the Empire without bypassing its control of the international financial system. All hell is already breaking loose when it comes to probing what is exactly taking place related to the latest, definitely murky U.S.-linked movements in Pakistani land and sea. After an initial assessment at Transition Protocol – which avowedly did not provide all the necessary answers – we dug deeper into a way more comprehensive examination supported by several sources. What we are watching across several nodes of extremely sensitive Iran-Pakistan overland connectivity is not a blanket border shutdown; but a surgical, two-track balancing act by Islamabad between Washington’s tremendous financial vise and Tehran’s strategic lifeline. So here’s where it all stands – compounding the verified record with our latest consultations. The key point: the regulatory trigger was a banking sanctions …Daplü
Does this sound like Russia is pro Christian or actually pro good anything?
And that’s where Chabad came in. Not long after Putin took power, he worked out a deal with Chabad. The organization would have to publicly and loudly support Putin’s policies, and defend him against charges of antisemitism. In return, it would receive lavish funding from two Putin-friendly oligarchs, and get the full support of the Russian government to operate in the Russian Federation.
The FSSPX’s Christ the King pilgrimage opened in Lourdes on October 24, despite Bishop Jean-Marc Micas’ ban on celebrations inside the sanctuary’s basilicas. Pilgrims gathered under a large tent at Maison Saint-Ignace for four Masses.

For Vatican justice, already under severe scrutiny for the way the major trial was conducted, a new front is opening: that of the transparency of investigations and the guarantees afforded to the defendants. This is a matter likely to weigh on the pontificate of Leo XIV, who is called to deal with the judicial legacy of one of the most controversial proceedings in recent years.
Leo XIV increases salaries for cardinals and senior Vatican officials. Today, Leo XIV has abolished the pay cuts introduced by Francis in 2021. Francis had ordered a 10% salary cut for cardinals working for the Holy See and an 8% reduction for senior officials and curial secretaries as the Vatican faced financial difficulties. Other clergy and religious employees initially faced a 3% cut, which was abolished in 2025. Leo XIV’s new motu proprio, effective September 1, abrogates the 2021 decree in its entirety. He claimed the measures had been necessary due to the “exceptional challenge of the pandemic,” but could now be superseded as the Holy See and Vatican City pursue economic sustainability “through different instruments.” #newsRxifznfisa
