Pope Leo XIV talked on July 29 with Tom Llamas (NBC) about his heritage and what it means to be the first pope from the US. “First of all, just to clarify, I think of myself more as the pope who happens to be American, not to belittle what it means to be American”, Leo XIV said. Leo XIV loves about America “the sense of freedom, the sense of opportunity, the sense of having invited for generations people from around the world to be part of America.” Discussing his family's heritage, he said, “I come from a family where my grandparents were immigrants. On my mother’s side, we have people who were both slaves and slave owners.” Llamas also asked when the pope will visit the United States. “In the next couple of years,” Leo answered. The interview was Leo XIV's first interview with a US television journalist, and it aired alongside the Concert for Peace, marking the 800th anniversary of St. Francis of Assisi's death, featuring Andrea Bocelli and a 200-child interfaith choir from conflict-…அதிகமாக
Pavel had lied and said, Russia wanted to suppress and control him. I thought that was pretty underhanded of him to lie like that and try to make out as if Russia was trying to control him. They were trying to get him to block terrorists. But he kept refusing. There are also scams from Ukraine wiping out bank accounts on the elderly and young women. Just like they do everywhere else. Including America! I was not happy with his lying about Russia. And I don't trust him. He refused to block anyone who was dangerous. Then what's there to trust?
Conservative Archbishop Alexander K. Sample of Portland, Oregon attacked in an in-house interview on Youtube.com on July 28 the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X (FSSPX). Main quotes. • "The FSSPX's recent consecration of bishops without a papal mandate takes the situation to a whole new level. They are now the second time bishops have been consecrated." • "They see themselves as the faithful remnant, as though the rest of the Church is wrong and they alone are right. Folks, please don't be in that position." • "I don't attribute any ill will to these folks. They're sincere in wanting to preserve tradition and be faithful Catholics. But they have in fact become something else now, especially in light of these recent consecrations." • "They still mention the Pope in the Eucharistic Prayer, but it's just words. It's not a real communion. They give lip service." Summorum Pontificum Not About FSSPX • "Everybody thinks that Pope Benedict issued Summorum Pontificum... to bring them back …அதிகமாக
"The FSSPX's recent consecration of bishops without a papal mandate takes the situation to a whole new level." Really? That's what you call a "whole new level". What level then are a hundreds and more real heresies spoken and written by Bergoglio and Prevost, among others? If I may ask a good bishop of Portland.
Pleads the fifth when he has no right to do so, hires a high-powered criminal defense lawyer, and refuses to acknowledge those adversely affected by his “policies.” Tell me that you’re guilty without saying it.
Pro-homosexual Archbishop John C. Wester of Santa Fe, New Mexico, defended "our Muslim neighbors' right to worship" in a July 27 statement. He had heard in recent weeks concerns from some residents regarding the proposal to build a mosque and community center in Albuquerque's North Valley. "Our Muslim neighbors have the same God-given and constitutionally protected right to worship freely as every other faith community, including our own. Defending that right is not only a civic duty but a core element of Catholic teaching", the Archbishop wrote. According to Monsignor Wester, supporting the construction of a mosque is entirely consistent with Catholic tradition and moral commitments. He urged Catholics to "choose respect, dialogue, and peaceful coexistence." In 2025, it emerged that, Archbishop Wester promoted and lived with a priest who had spent ten years in a registered homosexual relationship. Picture: AI, #newsXofkbkkgnx

Leo XIV: “I think of myself more as the pope, who happens to be American.”
NBS: “I’m curious, how important is being American to you? What do you love about America?” Pope Leo XIV: “First of all, just to clarify, I think of myself more as the pope, who happens to be American. Not to belittle what it means to be American. I was born in the United States, my family is still in the United States. I have great love for America. But I understand my mission, having a very important mission, being pastor of a global church and having a voice and opportunity to speak to people throughout the world. So, I will put things in that order. At the same time I will acknowledge for myself as well as the people of the United States, judging by the response we’ve seen since May 8 of last year, that there is great significance in being the first American pope.”
Today, Rev. Francis Xavier Duan Yongkun, 45, was consecrated a bishop. The Vatican announced only today that Pope Leo XIV had appointed him on June 15 as Coadjutor Bishop of Bameng, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, China. For the previous three episcopal appointments in China, the regime publicly announced the election of the bishop-designate before the Holy See. In today's case, no comparable notice about the Chinese selection process has been released. Underground Bishop chose recognition The Diocese of Bameng (40,000 Catholics, 30 priests, 20 religious sisters) is not vacant. The current bishop, Matthew Du Jiang, is only 63 years old. He was consecrated for the Catholic underground Church in 2004 and officially recognized by the Chinese authorities as bishop in 2010. As part of the recognition process, he was required to participate in an installation ceremony concelebrated with Bishop Ma Yinglin of Kunming, then a leading figure in the Chinese state church. The ceremony caused …அதிகமாக
Sen. Ron Johnson just pulled out BOMBSHELL data in front of Dr. Fauci exposing that COVID vaccine and Remdesivir deaths were NUMEROUS yet IGNORED
Eric Daugherty @EricLDaugh JUST IN: Sen. Ron Johnson just pulled out BOMBSHELL data in front of Dr. Fauci exposing that COVID vaccine and Remdesivir deaths were NUMEROUS yet IGNORED, while Fauci fearmongered against Ivermectin and Hydroxychloroquine COVID VACCINES: -1.67 MILLION adverse events -39K deaths, 6.9K deaths per year - "Remdesivir, over five and a half years, 546 deaths per year, the COVID injection, almost 7,000 deaths per year. Which is safest. What did the FDA freak us out about? Ivermectin, Hydroxychloroquine!"
Today, Leo XIV appointed Bishop Gerard Nash, 67, as Bishop of Ossory while he remains also Bishop of Ferns. The pope united two neighboring Irish dioceses in persona episcopi. Under this arrangement, both dioceses retain for now their separate legal identities but are entrusted to the same bishop. Bishop Nash has led the Diocese of Ferns since 2021 and has served as Apostolic Administrator of Ossory since January 2026. Together, the two dioceses serve less than 200,000 Catholics. The appointment marks another step in the ongoing restructuring of the shrinking Church in Ireland. The policy of diocesan consolidation is clearly expanding beyond western Ireland While three previous in persona episcopi unions took place within the Ecclesiastical Province of Tuam in western Ireland, the union of Ferns and Ossory is the first outside that province.

At 60, Life Begins to Speak More Clearly By the time you reach sixty, life has a way of telling you the truth. Those who refuse to listen may eventually pay a high price in their later years. Turning sixty does not mean your life is over. It means there is no longer time to move through life half-awake, repeat the same mistakes, live for everyone else’s approval, or neglect yourself as though your health, peace of mind, and dignity will last forever without care. By this stage of life, there are certain truths worth understanding. 1. Take care of your body. Every day spent sitting without movement, every unhealthy habit, and every promise to “start tomorrow” eventually catches up with you. Walk, stay active, eat nourishing food, get enough sleep, and keep up with medical appointments. Without health, it becomes much harder to enjoy your savings, your home, your accomplishments, or the people you love. 2. Learn how to enjoy your own company. When you do not know how to be alone, you may …அதிகமாக
Cardinal Robert McElroy of Washington D.C. authorised monthly lay "commentary" during the Eucharist at the Jesuit parish of Holy Trinity in Georgetown, according to BigModernism.Substack.com (July 28). The blog published a letter dated 4 February 2026 and signed by Fr James Casciotti, SJ. The letter responds to concerns raised by a correspondent about the parish's liturgical practices. Fr Casciotti addresses several issues, including chatting until just before the Eucharist.
