Pope Leo Walks the ‘Early Francis’ Path — With a New Approach

COMMENTARY: Early signs from Leo’s first consistory suggest continuity with Pope Francis’ original pastoral vision — more in what he said than in how he later governed.
The direction of the Leonine pontificate is still not yet clear, but the consistory of cardinals last week gave some further indications.
Pope Leo XIV intends to continue in the direction of his immediate predecessor, but he prefers to do as Pope Francis said, rather than what Pope Francis did.
In announcing the topics for the consistory last month, Leo chose four that were central to the Francis pontificate —
Evangelii Gaudium, the reform of the Roman Curia, liturgy and synodality.
At the actual consistory, the cardinals chose to discuss the first and the last, about both of which Pope Leo has repeatedly expressed his commitment. Leo wants the missionary Church called for by Evangelii Gaudium, the charter document of Pope Francis, and agrees with Pope Francis that “synodality is what the Lord desires” for the Church …

These protesters are trained are being paid.
Question- Why are the "leaders" unable to find out those people who are the sources paying out the money?
Answer- Because they are ALL dirty rats who are involved in facilitating the destruction, the chaos, and the evil of their plots and plans of the "leaders" which are carried out by their trained and paid protestors.

A BURIED CIA VIDEO JUST SURFACED… AND ERIKA KIRK IS IN IT A 10-year-old documentary about EMP attacks and U.S. power grid vulnerability has quietly surfaced - and buried inside it is Erika Kirk. She’s not observing. She’s not a host. She’s in a role most civilians never get near, briefing national security professionals alongside a former CIA National Security & Energy Specialist on how an EMP or coordinated physical attack could collapse the U.S. power grid. This isn’t casual footage. It’s technical. It’s inside-baseball. And it’s the exact kind of material most people never get near, let alone present. Which raises some very uncomfortable questions: Why was she in that role? What qualified her to brief on national security threats? Who brought her into that room, and why is none of it explained? Back then, this clip passed quietly. Today, with everything surrounding her, it hits very differently. At what point do “coincidences” stop being …More

She presents herself as a concerned person….mainly for herself and her brand…and the message comes through because pride and a certain sense of “I can’t be touched and am protected on every side by those who count”…and you’re not.

Trump on not having received the Nobel Peace Prize yet: “I think it’s been a major embarrassment to Norway. I don’t know what Norway has to do with it, but that’s where the committee is located. A lot of Norwegian people. And it’s been a very big embarrassment to the country of Norway. Whether they have anything to do with it or not, I think they do. They say they don’t”

It is an embarresment how anyone who, like Corina Machado, who is on board about baby killing is to receive consideration to the world's most prestigious award, Machado is an abortion promoter in line with what the EU and the UN loves.

Ron Paul: Trump/Vance was presented as "the peace ticket," and was voted in with the expectation of focusing on America instead of the rest of the world. But alas, the addiction to Empire has proven to be too strong once again. The Trump Administration has been laser-focused on foreign nations, while our own nation continues to struggle quite substantially. Yesterday, the president even proposed a $1.5 TRILLION military budget. Are we reaching the mania phase, or what market traders call the "blowoff top" of Empire?

Arizona is considering a law which will see priests JAILED if they do not report certain offences heard in the Confessional

Arizona bill would hit priests with felony if they fail to break confessional seal to report abuse

Jan 7, 2026 / 14:34 pm
A proposed law in Arizona could see priests facing felony charges if they fail to break the seal of confession after learning of child abuse during the sacrament.
The measure,
HB 2039, was introduced in December 2025 by state Rep. Anastasia Travers. It is awaiting action in the state House after Travers prefiled it on Dec. 4.
The bill would amend the state code to require priests to report abuse learned during confession if they have “reasonable suspicion to believe that the abuse is ongoing, will continue, or may be a threat to other minors.”
Failure to report a “reportable offense” could lead to class 6 felony charges under the bill. Those charges in Arizona can lead to up to $150,000 in fines and up to two years of imprisonment.
Travers did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the bill and why she proposed it. She previously filed a similar bill in 2023.
Lawmakers in multiple U.S. states in recent years have moved to require priests to violate …
