Bishop Marian Eleganti: “The Vatican Cuts a Poor Figure”. Retired Swiss Bishop Marian Eleganti condemns the exclusion of Catholics from St. Peter’s Basilica on October 24: “This year’s ban on access to St. Peter’s Basilica for the tradition-minded pilgrims of ‘Ad Petri Sedem’ borders on hostility toward Catholics who are loyal to the Pope and orthodox in their faith. It has nothing to do with concern for unity in the Church or with operational difficulties in organizing liturgical celebrations in St. Peter’s Basilica.” “Synodal hypocrisy (inclusivity) has thereby revealed itself for what it is.” Bishop Eleganti notes that the “Ad Petri Sedem” pilgrims are not the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X (FSSPX): “We have known it for a long time: Certain people are inclusive only as long as it serves their own goals. They ruthlessly and cold-bloodedly exclude different ways of thinking and different approaches to pastoral care and spirituality. This has been my consistent experience.” “So-…Okuninzi

Gates Foundation was primary sponsor of scandalous Assisi meeting
The Gates Foundation sponsored the Assisi interreligious meeting. The Bill Gates Foundation is listed as the first “Platinum” sponsor of the international interreligious peace gathering organized by the Catholic Community of Sant’Egidio in Assisi, Italy, from October 25–27, 2026. Pope Leo XIV cancelled his planned attendance, reportedly for health reasons. The Gates Foundation appeared in the highest sponsorship category alongside two other organizations: BFIO and Fondazione Cariplo, an Italian philanthropic foundation. The German Bishops’ Conference was also listed among the event’s official partners. The amount contributed by the Gates Foundation to the Assisi meeting has not been publicly disclosed. Neither have any specific conditions or agreements associated with its sponsorship. #newsWsndgkablw
A historic verdict in Poland. For the first time, a Catholic bishop has been convicted for failing to report clerical homosexual abuse. Bishop Andrzej Jeż has announced that he will appeal the verdict. Today, October 29, a court in Tarnów convicted Bishop Jeż, 63, of failing to promptly report allegations of child homosexual abuse involving two priests in his diocese. It is the first conviction of a serving Catholic bishop in Poland for such an offense. The court sentenced Bishop Jeż to two years of restricted liberty, requiring him to surrender 25% of his monthly salary to a foundation supporting abused children. He must also pay 20,000 złoty into a victims' assistance fund. The case concerns allegations against two priests, Stanisław P. and Tomasz K. One priest was implicated in the abuse of at least 95 boys between 1987 and 2008. Church authorities had investigated allegations against Stanisław P. in the 2000s and dismissed him from the clergy in 2013. In July 2017, Poland introduced …Okuninzi

Luigi Casalini di Messa in Latino: "Non voglio credere, non voglio credere alle notizie che la Questura ha ricevuto una telefonata vaticana che ha chiesto se avevamo tutti i bolli e controbolli per la processione in territorio italiano. Non voglio crederlo, eh, come invece mi è stato detto. Non voglio credere, perché non c'è bisogno di credere a una cosa che ormai è... Come non voglio credere che è stato detto... Noi il convegno lo facciamo all'Augustinianum, che è un centro congressi prestigioso di fianco al Vaticano, di proprietà degli Agostiniani, che hanno la fortuna anche di avere il Papa oggi. E non voglio credere che ci è stato comunicato il venerdì pomeriggio che dal prossimo anno l'Augustinianum non ce lo danno più. Ma non voglio crederlo, non voglio, anche se me l'ha detto l'organizzatore primo, ma comunque non voglio crederlo."
Bishop Barron rebukes Cardinal Vesco. In an October 28 post on X.com, Bishop Robert Barron of Winona-Rochester, Minnesota, attacked the Archbishop Jean-Paul Vesco of Algiers. He had claimed that “the Church is not there to convert” and that Christians should approach other religions “through fraternity rather than seeking conversions.” “Excuse me, but…what?” Barron responded. Citing Christ’s command to “make disciples of all nations,” the American bishop added: “Sure sounds like conversion to me.” Bishop Barron then invoked St. Paul, who preached in Corinth, Athens and Thessalonica. His purpose, Barron argued, “was not to listen or to form a discussion group but rather to declare an unnerving message”: that Jesus Christ is risen from the dead. He also criticized what he sees as a wider problem within the Church hierarchy, opening his post with the remark: “Well, another Cardinal has come out with a, shall we say, puzzling take on evangelization.” Monsignor Barron stressed that abandoning …Okuninzi
This is a great read on the 'errors of Russia' and the modernist spin to rehabilitate Russia even though it isn't consecrated and Catholic by any means!

29.10.2026 Maria Alvardo canonically does not meet the conditions to be the Prefect of the Vatican Dicastery on Nov 1 AVOIDS DE FIDE TEACHINGS The Holy See’s Dicastery for Communication’s incoming prefect Maria Montserrat “Montse” Alvarado , canonically does not meet the conditions to hold that office.She does not affirm the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus, the Athanasius Creed and the Nicene Creed interpreted rationally. She does not affirm the Catechism of the Catholic Church, in harmony with the past Catechisms. Instead she interprets Magisterial Documents as a schismatic break with de fide teachings of the Church, which she does not endorse in public.So she has not corrected the error of Reuters, Wikipedia etc. She begins her new job on Nov.1 and is unable to affirm the Nicene Creed in its original understanding.There cannot be an Oath of Office or Oath Against Modernism for her. This is not her particular fault. This is the general error in the Church even among the cardinals…Okuninzi

Bishop Athanasius Schneider accuses Vatican officials of collaborating with European political elites in promoting mass immigration and contributing to Europe's de-Christianization. Speaking to The Remnant on October 25, Schneider said: “I am suspecting [...] that unfortunately the responsible in the Vatican are simply collaborating with [...] the European political elites.” He argues that politicians seek the Vatican's spiritual endorsement of their immigration policies, “Many responsible people in the Vatican are allowing themselves to be deceived or partly agreeing with the process of de-Christianizing Europe.” His conclusion: “Ultimately, unfortunately, the Holy See is supporting this process,” which he warns will seriously damage Europe's Christian presence.

Only to you because once again they know Russian History. They talk highly of Russia with FACTS AND PROOF. which you never ever have. We keep asking. We get nothing. A hater and a liar and a puppet for the globalists. Prejudice is a bad thing. It leads to worse things. As it did for you.
Cardinal Joseph William Tobin of Newark will undergo surgery tomorrow to remove a kidney mass. The Archdiocese reports that tests suggest the mass is confined to the kidney, and doctors are optimistic. Examination after surgery will determine whether it is cancerous and if further treatment is needed. Cardinal Tobin hopes to resume his duties within weeks.
