HABENT PAPAM – They have a Pope (or so they think)…

‘Pope Leo XIV’

American Cardinal
Robert Francis Prevost
is New Head of Vatican II Church

Born in Chicago, Illinois, on Sep. 14, 1955, his most recent role was prefect of the Dicastery for Bishops.

Prevost’s ecclesiastical milestones can be found here.

The following two videos show the announcement of Habemus Papam (“We have a Pope”) by ‘Cardinal’ Dominique Mamberti and the first remarks and blessing by ‘Pope’ Leo XIV, respectively:

Leo XIV aligns very much theologically with the Bergoglian agenda, although he appears to have a more polished exterior. He was a close confidant of ‘Pope’ Francis and has been responsible for the selection of ‘Catholic bishops’ throughout the world since 2023. As the head of the bishops’ congregation, Prevost was instrumental in the removal of ‘Bishop’ Joseph Strickland as the ordinary of Tyler, Texas.
