Today, Fr Michael Mary, superior of the sedevacantist Transalpine Redemptorists in Scotland, will be consecrated as an alleged bishop. Katholisch.de traced the long and tangled succession lines of schismatic bishops, focusing primarily on the lines of Marcel Lefebvre (1905-1991) and Pierre Martin Ngô Đình Thục (1897–1984). Here are the key points:. Lefebvre line (FSSPX) Among the different splinter groups, only the SSPX has significant size. In 1988, Lefebvre consecrated Alfonso de Galarreta, Bernard Fellay, Bernard Tissier de Mallerais, and Richard Williamson as bishops. All four later consecrated additional bishops. In 1991, Tissier de Mallerais consecrated Licínio Rangel for the Priestly Union of St. John Mary Vianney, Brazil. Rangel and his community reconciled with Rome in 2002 and became an Apostolic Personal Administration. The same year Fernando Arêas Rifan became Rangel's coadjutor, but he was consecrated by Cardinal Darío Castrillón Hoyos, with Rangel serving only as co-…Àteru
I used to wonder how the consecration requested by Our Lady of Fatima, in unison with all the Bishops of the world could ever take place since bishops are all over the place with their beliefs. Then I realized as these bishops ascend to heresy, they are no longer bishops so it may end up being some sede, bishops, SSPX and a few good sons of the church left in the NO. There is the manageable number.
To celebrate the 1,250th anniversary of the Westphalian State in Germany, a performance was staged inside Paderborn Cathedral last year. This is one of the acts that was presented, featuring dead chickens wrapped in diapers. Faced with the outrage of the Catholic faithful, archdiocesan authorities apologized and stated that they were unaware of the nature of the performance that was to take place.
Munich Liturgical Controversy Goes Around the Globe: Many Catholic media outlets across the globe - in English, French, Polish, Spanish, Italian, etc. - are reporting on the latest liturgical abuse from the Archdiocese of Munich and Freising. The case centers on a Mass for the feast of St. Mary Magdalene, where Auxiliary Bishop Wolfgang Bischof delivered a "dialogue homily" together with laywoman Theresia Reischl, despite the Holy See's recent reaffirmation that the homily during Mass is reserved to an ordained minister. The celebration also featured liturgical dancing and balloons, further fueling criticism.

That's what you call a follower. Always wants to be part of the crowd and fit in. With a weak mind who can't think, for themselves and to avoid problems with them. That's a real pity. The only time you would ever see me following anyone was when I couldn't talk my friends out of something. So I would go to watch over them to try and stop any problems or protecting them. A friend of over 60 years just mentioned that to me last night in an email.
Bishop Blocks Electronic Music Concerts in Church: On July 23, Bishop Alexandre de Bucy of Agen, southwestern France, barred an electronic music festival from using the Saint-Robert Church for concerts scheduled on August 7–9. The church is municipally owned under French law, but the bishop has authority over its religious use and the French law forbids a secular use of state-owned churches. Organizers had reportedly failed—for the fourth consecutive year—to seek permission from either the parish or the Diocese of Agen. Parish priest Rev. Gilles N'Goran condemned the planned concerts as a "profanation."
L’évêque d’Agen, Alexandre de Bucy, a interdit un concert de musique électronique dans l’église Saint-Robert, faute d’autorisation de la paroisse et du diocèse. Le festival, prévu du 7 au 9 août, était organisé pour la quatrième année consécutive sans consultation préalable. Le curé, le père Gilles N’Goran, a dénoncé le projet comme une « profanation ».

The French Ministry of the Armed Forces and the City of Versailles have announced on July 23 that the former Récollets Convent in Versailles will be converted into a luxury hotel. Located less than 100 meters from the Palace of Versailles, the historic site is expected to reopen around 2030. Built in 1684 during the reign of King Louis XIV, the convent was designed by architect Jules Hardouin-Mansart. It originally housed the Récollets, a reformed branch of the Franciscan Order. The monks lived in poverty, prayer, and preaching while serving the people of Versailles and the royal armies. Following the French Revolution, the monks were expelled and the property was nationalized. The convent chapel was demolished in 1796, and the remaining buildings were successively used as a prison, military infirmary, army barracks, and administrative offices. The French state will retain ownership of the property but will grant a long-term emphyteutic lease to a private operator responsible for restoring …Àteru
Former CIA analyst Larry Johnson examines the growing crisis inside the U.S. arsenal and explores what this military-industrial weakness means for a future confrontation with Moscow or Beijing. U.S. is running out of missiles, Russia and China are watching — Ex-CIA Analyst Larry Johnson Some of the talk below included in the video. Time for Russia to reconsider it's relationship with the US. And in fact that the US is not a potential friend. It's an enemy! And with that carries with it important implications. We need to consider that the US is a country in crises. Economically, politically, militarily. Larry explains about the weapons the US has and doesn't have. What we have used already. How long it takes to make more. And how we can't make them without the rare earths from China. The PAC-3 missiles attached to the Patriot air defense system.

What a mess we are in. The F-35 fifth generation fighter The latest delivery, six of them, came without the nose radar because the nose radar depends upon these high precision magnets supplied by China! And without those the radar system that's suppose to be in the nose cone of that airplane is not put in place. Instead what the US did temporarily is a fix, is they went out and bought weight plates. The plates you put on bar bells to lift. They put them on the nose of the plane just so it can have the weight. But still didn't have the radar capability.
Polish President Pardons Woman in High-Profile Free Speech Case: Polish President Karol Nawrocki pardoned in April 2026 Weronika Krawczyk, ending a widely debated free speech case. Krawczyk, a mother of three from the Starogard Gdański area (Pelplin diocese, near Gdańsk), was convicted over online posts warning other women about a gynecologist who, she said, had misdiagnosed her unborn son with Down syndrome and repeatedly urged her to have an abortion. Her son was born healthy in 2016. Krawczyk also refused a court-ordered apology to the doctor. The pardon lifted the order to publicize the verdict and the obligation to apologize. Her case had received support from pro-life and Catholic organizations, including Catholic Action in Poland and Bishop Ryszard Kasyna of Pelplin.
O sprawie pani Weroniki Krawczyk słyszała chyba cała Polska. Kobieta została skazana tylko za to, że odradziła na forum internetowym korzystanie z usług ginekologa, który chciał zabić jej nienarodzone dziecko. Lekarz ten proponował jej aborcję, twierdząc, że dziecko urodzi się z zespołem Downa. Ostatecznie urodziła zdrowego synka, a lekarz nie poniósł żadnej odpowiedzialności karnej. Pani Weronika natomiast została ukarana za opinię, w której wyraziła sprzeciw wobec jego działań. Sąd w Gdańsku skazał kobietę na 60 godzin prac społecznych oraz karę finansową, a także zobowiązał do przeprosin. Ponieważ nie wyobrażała sobie możliwości przeproszenia abortera, który chciał zabić jej dziecko, groziło jej realnie więzienie. Za Weroniką Krawczyk wstawiły się liczne środowiska pro-life, a później również biskup diecezji pelplińskiej. Jako matka trójki dzieci, w tym jednego z niepełnosprawnością, także ze względu na ich dobro wnioskowała do Prezydenta RP o ułaskawienie. Znają już Państwo szczęśliwe …Àteru

Leo XIV Promoted This Hopping, Dancing Bishop in Mexico: In January 2026, Pope Leo XIV appointed Monsignor Trinidad Antonio Márquez Guerrero, 60, as auxiliary bishop of San Juan de los Lagos, Mexico. He was consecrated a bishop on May 8. On Sunday, July 19, he celebrated a Eucharist during the diocesan Youth Day in the bullring in Yahualica, attended by some 1,300 young people. Still wearing his mitre and liturgical vestments, he started hopping and dancing around like an overexcited young person.

"FSSPX Confessions Are Valid" - Müller Contradicts Tucho: On July 6, K-TV asked Cardinal Gerhard Müller whether confessions heard by priests of the Priestly Society of Saint Pius X are valid or invalid. Contrary to Cardinal Tucho Fernández, he replied: "The confessions are valid, but illicit. The power to forgive or retain sins is conferred through the sacrament of Holy Orders. Its exercise can only be restricted by the bishop or the Pope, as provided by canon law."
Kardinal Gerhard Müller zu Beichten bei den Priestern der Piusbruderschaft (K-TV, 6. Juli): "Die Beichen sind gültig, aber unerlaubt, denn die Vollmacht, Zünden zu vergeben und zu behalten, ist ja durch das Weihesakrament übertragen. Sie kann nur in der Ausübung durch den Bischof oder den Papst eingeschränkt werden, bis nach dem Kirchenrecht vorgegeben ist." (via @Klaus Elmar Müller)

Bishop Aguer : "The four Eucharistic Prayers of the reformed Missal seem to have been displaced by the “zero prayer”; that is, by what the celebrant in turn desires.
