On August 28, the U.S. Justice Department released a 231-page report on the FBI’s 2023 Richmond Catholic memo, including evidence of surveillance of traditionalist Catholic clergy. The FBI investigated two priests and conducted surveillance connected to them. One belonged to the Priestly Fraternity of St. Pius X (FSSPX); the other, his uncle, was associated with SSPX Resistance and had been ordained by Bishop Richard Williamson. Agents researched travel and credit-card records. FBI personnel in Boston surveilled the second priest at the airport, while Customs and Border Protection questioned him and searched his phone. Both investigations were subsequently closed after the FBI found no identified national-security threat and no alleged violation of federal law. Among the exhibits in the DOJ report is an FBI PowerPoint titled “Traditionalist Catholicism Overview” - essentially a rudimentary guide to the various traditionalist Catholic groups and sects. Remarkably, the presentation included …More
For decades, legend claimed that the pilot who dropped the atomic bomb on Hiroshima became a Carthusian monk at Serra San Bruno in Calabria. The truth was different. Father Tony Lehmann, a former U.S. soldier, visited Hiroshima after the war and, deeply affected by its devastation, chose to become a “man of peace.” He later joined the Carthusians, living at Serra San Bruno, before becoming a Jesuit devoted to pastoral service. He was no “penitent pilot,” but a witness to Hiroshima who chose peace, prayer and service. Father Tony died of leukemia on March 8, 2002, aged 73.
The Impeded Papacy The Katechon, the Obstacle to the Legitimate Holder, and the Eclipse of the Petrine Function Introduction — A question more precise than that of the “pope in contradiction with the Papacy” The present crisis compels us to ask a question that goes beyond the simple alternative between “a legitimate but bad pope” and “an empty see.” The problem can be formulated as follows: What if the Papacy, as a perpetual divine institution, remained intact, while its legitimate occupation were prevented by a power that had seized the visible structures of the Church and presented itself to the world as the Church itself? An ecclesiological hypothesis This hypothesis makes it possible to understand the contemporary paradox differently. On the one hand, Catholicism teaches that the Church is a visible, hierarchical society, founded by Our Lord and visibly governed by a head who holds the place of Peter. Pius XII recalled in 1943 that Christ willed a visible Church and that, after His …More
German Church Cancels November Synodal Conference as Vatican Delays Approval: The first “Synodal Conference” of the Church in Germany, scheduled to take place in Stuttgart on November 6–7, has been postponed, Domradio reported on August 28. The main reason is that the statutes are still awaiting the necessary recognition from the Vatican. Hotel rooms that had been reserved for the November meeting have been cancelled. The president of the German Bishops’ Conference, Bishop Heiner Wilmer of Hildesheim, had already said in May that, given the ongoing review by several Vatican dicasteries, he no longer expected the Synodal Conference to begin in November.

After celebrating the Eucharist at the Church of Maria Santissima del Lago, Leo XIV boarded the Falco together with the statue of Our Lady of the Lake and crossed Lake Albano in a 25-minute procession, accompanied by canoes and other boats.

Video included. “We could have used them long ago and achieved victory, but we always rely on common sense and the principle of minimizing civilian casualties. Using such weapons as an instrument of terror, as was the case in Hiroshima and Nagasaki, if we recall World War II, is alien to us,” Slutsky stated.

by Plinio Corrêa de Oliveira – Folha de S. Paulo, July 21, 1978 – In a previous article, I promised to inform readers about multiple attacks in the US against widespread leftism. Today I fulfilled that promise. From the outset, I note that I will deal here with an offensive not only from the right but also from the center (and, if we take into account the preponderant importance of the means that the latter has launched into the struggle, even less from the right than from the center) against what would be a “new look” of leftism. In fact, “leftism” here is not merely a set of socioeconomic reforms aimed at establishing complete equality among men in the short or medium term. It is also everything that corrodes, corrupts, or dissolves Christian morality, the foundation of Western civilization. The omnipresent permissiveness of our days can and should be considered a genuine expression of the leftist mentality and doctrine, for it is as characteristic of communist regimes as state and …More
