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 …เพิ่มเติม
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.
On 6 September, the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X (FSSPX) was denied entry to the Basilica of Saint Francis in Assisi. The group had planned to conclude their annual pilgrimage with public prayer inside the basilica. Individual pilgrims were permitted to enter privately or in small groups. The group therefore remained outside and concluded their pilgrimage in the basilica square. Father Gabriele D’Avino, head of the FSSPX in Italy, drew a contrast between this decision and the interreligious gathering in Assisi on 27 October, for which representatives of different religions and Christian denominations are expected to attend the 40th anniversary of the 1986 World Day of Prayer for Peace.
Assisi, porte chiuse ai fedeli lefebvriani: «Qui pregano tutti, tranne noi».

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
Leo XIV will not celebrate the closing Mass of the meeting marking the 10th anniversary of Amoris laetitia. Pope Leo XIV will not preside over Wednesday’s closing Mass marking the 10th anniversary of Amoris laetitia, scheduled for October 14 in St. Peter’s Square.

Leo XIV is preparing for surgery to remove a lung nodule, the Vatican announced Monday. He is expected to enter Rome’s Gemelli Hospital on Tuesday. He is expected to remain hospitalized for approximately one week. Vatican spokesman Matteo Bruni said the nodule was detected during a routine examination, not following symptoms of an acute illness. Its nature, whether benign or malignant, remains undisclosed. Medical guidelines generally recommend monitoring rather than surgically removing incidental solid lung nodules smaller than …เพิ่มเติม
The actor playing the Pope wants to evoke sympathy, while since May 2025 he hasn't shown any sympathy for his followers, whom he encourages in sin and leads to ruin.

Woman Distributes Communion at Leo XIV’s Eucharist — One Communicant Bare-Chested During the Eucharist celebrated by Leo XIV this evening at the Port of Rimini, a woman was spreading Communion in the hand as if it were cookies. One male attendee even received Communion bare-chested, without a shirt.
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).
Something "doesn’t add up" with Leo XIV’s planned surgery for a 3 mm pulmonary nodule. Today, Leo XIV, 71, personally announced that he will undergo surgery for a small pulmonary nodule detected during recent medical examinations. The Vatican press office – notorious for downplaying the health problems of popes – confirmed that the procedure has been scheduled and that hospitalization is expected to last approximately seven days. According to Corriere.it, hospitalization is expected to begin next Wednesday. Infobae.com reports that sources at Rome’s Gemelli Hospital indicated that the lesion measures three millimeters. Dr. Ana María Putruele, a pulmonologist, former head of the Pulmonology Division at the José de San Martín Clinical Hospital (UBA), and adjunct consulting professor of pulmonology at UBA, expressed surprise at the reported size: “Three millimeters is actually very small to be able to remove surgically.” Given the lesion’s reported size, the specialist suggested that the …เพิ่มเติม
US Bishop bans St. Michael prayer after Mass. Bishop Mark Beckman of Knoxville, Tennessee, has directed priests to discontinue the communal recitation of the Prayer to St. Michael the Archangel immediately before or after Mass. In his October 16 article, he claims that in order to celebrate the liturgy “in accordance with the mind of the Church” priests need to “catechize the people of God as we move away from additional prayers recited together immediately before, during, and immediately after Mass.” Additional prayers - including those to St. Michael, St. Francis, and the Holy Spirit - should not become regular additions to the celebration of Mass. He cited the Second Vatican Council's call for a liturgy marked by “noble simplicity.” #newsIisjgbwbuz
But at that time shall Michael rise up, the great prince, who standeth for the children of thy people: and a time shall come such as never was from the time that nations began even until that time. And at that time shall thy people be saved, every one that shall be found written in the book. 2And many of those that sleep in the dust of the earth, shall awake: some unto life everlasting, and others unto reproach, to see it always. 3But they that are learned shall shine as the brightness of the firmament: and they that instruct many to justice, as stars for all eternity. 4But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time appointed: many shall pass over, and knowledge shall be manifold.
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
