Novus Ordo Bishop Receives Rabbi’s Blessing at Jewish Temple

Mark Edward Brennan (b. 1947) is the outgoing Novus Ordo bishop of the diocese of Wheeling-Charleston, West Virginia. He is currently in his ‘lame duck’ period, one might say: His resignation was officially accepted on May 1, but his successor, who was appointed the same day, has not yet taken over. The installation of ‘Bishop’ Evelio Menjívar-Ayala (b. 1970) is scheduled for July 2.

This past Friday, on June 5, 2026, the Most Rev. Mark Brennan was in attendance at the Shabbat Shalom Friday evening service at Temple Shalom in Wheeling, to be honored by the presiding rabbi, Joshua B.… READ MORE

LEO WATCH with Bishop Donald Sanborn – Episodes 8 and 9

Bp. Sanborn dismantles Prevost’s facade…

LEO WATCH, Episodes 8 and 9

“It is not the Church that attracts, but Christ”

“We are one! We already are! Let us recognize it and…make it visible!”

Since May 8 of last year, the Rev. Robert F. Prevost has been running the Vatican II Church as ‘Pope Leo XIV’.

The sedevacantist podcast program LEO WATCH evaluates Leo’s public actions and teachings from the perspective of traditional Roman Catholicism, that is, that which the entire world knew to be Roman Catholicism until the death of Pope Pius XII in 1958.

LEO WATCH is produced by Roman Catholic Media on a monthly basis.… READ MORE

Podcast: The Visibly False Church of Leo XIV
(TRADCAST EXPRESS 226)

Our latest podcast episode, TRADCAST EXPRESS 226, was published on May 23. It is 29 minutes long and deals with two separate but related topics.

First, we focus on a curious phrase with which Robert Prevost (‘Pope Leo XIV’) described the Holy Eucharist recently. In his May 10, 2026 Regina Caeli address, he said: “As he turns the bread and wine into a living expression of his love, Christ says: ‘If you love me, you will keep my commandments’ (Jn 14:15)”.… READ MORE

‘Catholic’ Church Festival in Germany
Set to Promote Next-Level Sexual Perversion

(left to right: title page of program booklet, emblem associated with BDSM perversions)

The Vatican II Church in Germany has done it again.

While everyone is busy talking about whether homosexual ‘couples’ can receive blessings formally or only informally, the upcoming 5-day festival known as the ‘Catholic Convention’ (Katholikentag) is preparing people to accept the next stage in sexual perversity, one that makes ‘mere’ homosexuality look like small potatoes by comparison. It is called ‘BDSM’.

The so-called ‘Ecumenical Working Group on BDSM and Being Christian’ (Ökumenischer Arbeitskreis BDSM-und-Christsein) will be present with an information booth at the Katholikentag that is set to take place from May 13-17, 2026.… READ MORE

As it was scheduled, so it happened: Today, on Apr. 27, 2026, ‘Pope’ Leo XIV (Robert Prevost) received in private audience ‘the Most Reverend and Right Honourable Dame’ Sarah Mullally, the woman who in the Anglican religion is the current lawful occupant of the office of ‘Archbishop of Canterbury’. In that role she is to Anglicans what a Pope is to Catholics, more or less.… READ MORE

[UPDATE April 23: We have released a short video on the matter here.]

The Rev. Dr. Gregory Kimura is a cleric of the so-called Episcopal Church in the United States. The Episcopal Church is part of the Anglican Communion and is basically the American branch of the Church of England, which was founded by King Henry VIII in response to Pope Clement VII’s refusal to pretend that his certainly-valid marriage to Catherine of Aragon was null.

A few days ago, Dr.… READ MORE

‘Table of Abraham’: Washington Novus Ordo Parish Hosts Interreligious ‘Peace Meal’

On the Thursday before Palm Sunday, Mar. 26, 2026, Holy Redeemer ‘Catholic’ Church in Washington, D.C., hosted what it called an “interfaith peace meal for Jews, Muslims and Christians”.

The official title of the event was “Celebration at the Table of Abraham”, although ‘Table of Apostasy’ would have been more appropriate, considering the heresies that were dished up there. The dinner event was co-sponsored by Masjid Muhammad, a local Sunni mosque.

Here are two news reports on the event, both of them written by the same author, Mark Zimmerman:

On Jan. 28, 2026, Dame Sarah Elisabeth Mullally (b. 1962) was elected to succeed Justin Welby as the 106th Anglican Archbishop of Canterbury.

‘Her Grace’ was officially installed in Canterbury Cathedral on Mar. 25, 2026. It was an installation/enthronement only because her ‘ordination’, which made her a bishop according to Anglican theology, had already taken place on July 22, 2015, for her first post as ‘Bishop’ of Crediton.… READ MORE

Now in English: ‘Catechism of Timely Truths Opposed to Contemporary Errors’ by Bishop de Castro Mayer (1953)

Vatican II condemned in advance!

Now in English: Catechism of Timely Truths Opposed to Contemporary Errors by Bp. Antônio de Castro Mayer

On Jan. 3, 1949, Bishop Antonio de Castro Mayer (1904-1991) became the local ordinary of the diocese of Campos, Brazil. He had been appointed coadjutor by Pope Pius XII ten months earlier.

In 1953, His Excellency issued two important documents in his diocese, one entitled ‘Pastoral Letter on the Problems of the Modern Apostolate’, the other ‘Catechism of Timely Truths Opposed to Contemporary Errors’. Although they have been available in Portuguese and French for a long time, it is only now that they are finally available in English, under one cover — including also a set of specific guidelines Bp.… READ MORE

In the Vatican II Church, it has long been in vogue to make the Lenten-penitential Stations of the Cross devotion (aka Via Crucis or Way of the Cross) not so much about the Holy Passion of Our Blessed Lord and Savior Jesus Christ as about the ‘passion of man’ — sufferings experienced by men on account of wars, injustice, persecution, discrimination, etc.

Jorge Bergoglio (‘Pope Francis’), in particular, was a big fan of directing people away from the divine “Man of Sorrows” (Isaias 53:3) and point them to ‘suffering man’ instead:

In making the genuine Stations of the Cross, Catholics meditate on the sorrowful journey of the Lord Jesus from Pilate’s court to Mount Calvary, carrying the cross on his shoulders all the way to the place of His Crucifixion.… READ MORE

Harry Potter-Themed Ecumenical Service Draws Hundreds

On the evening of Feb. 28, 2026, the Herz-Jesu-Kirche (Heart of Jesus Church) in Herne, Germany, part of the archdiocese of Paderborn, was the scene of an ecumenical service of a different kind.

Whereas an ecumenical pseudo-liturgy in which ‘Catholics’ (Novus Ordos) and Protestants worship together would be bad enough, this one added another layer of evil: It was Harry Potter-themed.

For those who are unfamiliar, Harry Potter is an immensely popular series of ‘fantasy’ books written by J.K.… READ MORE

Novus Ordos and other unbelievers — all united in their rejection of Catholicism…

What we are reporting in this post took place in Mexico nine months ago. It went largely unnoticed then because fewer than two weeks had passed since the end of the conclave, and so many ‘Catholic’ news agencies, journalists, and talking heads were still smitten with the election of Robert Prevost as ‘Pope Leo XIV’ and his ability to chant the Our Father and Regina Caeli in Latin.… READ MORE

Podcast: The Society of Saint Pius X versus the Vatican
(TRADCAST EXPRESS 222)

Our latest podcast episode, TRADCAST EXPRESS 222, has been published. Its main topic is the controversy between the Vatican and the Lefebvrist Society of St. Pius X or SSPX (internationally known as the Priestly Fraternity of St. Pius X or FSSPX) with regard to its announced intention to consecrate bishops without the required mandate from the person they recognize as the Pope of the Catholic Church, Robert Prevost (Leo XIV).

In particular, this TRADCAST EXPRESS episode considers:

Vatican Proposal to SSPX: Call Off the Bishops’ Consecrations and We’ll Talk!

Vatican Proposal to SSPX:
Call Off the Bishops’ Consecrations and We’ll Talk!

In the words of the American baseball player Yogi Berra, “It’s déjà vu all over again.”

This morning, the Superior General of the Society of Saint Pius X (SSPX), Father Davide Pagliarani, together with the two remaining bishops of the Society, Alfonso de Galarreta and Bernard Fellay, had a formal meeting with the Vatican’s Prefect of the so-called Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith, ‘His Eminence’ Victor Manuel Fernandez.

The meeting had been announced last week after the SSPX Superior announced the Society would consecrate more bishops on July 1, regardless of whether Robert Prevost (‘Pope Leo XIV’) grants them a mandate to do so or not:

After the Superior General of the Society of Saint Pius X (SSPX), Fr. Davide Pagliarani, publicly made known on Feb. 2, 2026, that new bishops would be consecrated on July 1, although the Vatican had refused the requisite permission (mandate), the anticipated drama began to unfold.

The news spread like wildfire, and the SSPX’s official web sites crashed, apparently overwhelmed by the volume of people trying to access them to see the news for themselves.… READ MORE
