Catholic News Agency reports that antipope Leo XIV (Robert Prevost) met with Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado at the Vatican on January 12, 2026. The unannounced audience occurred alongside Machado’s meeting with “Cardinal” Pietro Parolin, with the politician requesting Vatican intervention for Venezuelan political prisoners. The article notes Machado’s recent Nobel Peace Prize and planned meeting with US President Donald Trump, while emphasizing the antipope’s calls for “respecting national sovereignty” and “human rights” following the arrest of Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro by US forces.
Conciliar Sect’s Abdication of Spiritual Authority
The very act of a pretended pontiff receiving a political operative constitutes blasphemous inversion of ecclesiastical priorities. Where true popes like Pius IX condemned “the absurd and erroneous doctrine or ravings in defence of liberty of conscience” (Syllabus of Errors, Proposition 15), the Vatican occupiers now facilitate revolutionary agendas. Leo XIV’s meeting continues the conciliar betrayal exemplified by John XXIII receiving Soviet spy Aleksandr Shelepin in 1963 – substituting the Social Reign of Christ the King for Marxist-inspired “liberation” schemes.
Machado’s request for prisoner releases ignores the Church’s true weapon: the supernatural means of prayer and penance. Authentic Catholic action would demand Venezuela’s consecration to Christ’s Sacred Heart, not political bargaining. The article’s celebration of Machado’s Nobel Prize exposes the conciliar sect’s embrace of worldly validation, directly contravening Pope Leo XIII’s condemnation of “the sect of humanists who esteem themselves the best of all and substitute for God the worship of humanity” (Humanum Genus, 8).
Naturalism Masquerading as Diplomacy
The Vatican statement urging “full respect for the country’s national sovereignty” constitutes heretical indifference to Christ’s universal kingship. Pius XI definitively taught that “the empire of our Redeemer embraces all men” (Quas Primas, 18), making sovereignty claims against His Social Reign illegitimate. Parolin’s involvement demonstrates the masonic strategy of reducing Churchmen to diplomatic functionaries – a betrayal of St. Pius X’s warning against clergy engaging in politics “as if they were a party or a form of government” (Notre Charge Apostolique).
The repeated emphasis on “human and civil rights” reveals the conciliar sect’s fundamental heresy: substituting natural virtues for supernatural faith. Where true popes proclaimed “the right of Christ to reign over societies no less than over individuals” (Pius XI, Ubi Arcano), the Vatican occupiers parrot UN human rights rhetoric. This confirms St. Pius X’s condemnation of Modernists who “make conscience consist in a kind of inspiration and impulse of sentiment” (Pascendi, 24).
Structural Apostasy in Action
The article’s focus on economic conditions (“poorest who suffer because of difficult economic situation”) exposes the conciliar sect’s materialist worldview. Contrast this with Pius XI’s teaching that “the peace of Christ can only be in the Kingdom of Christ” (Ubi Arcano), which necessitates spiritual solutions before material ones. The Vatican’s silence about Venezuela’s religious persecution – while demanding political prisoner releases – proves their alignment with Freemasonic humanitarianism rather than Catholic truth.
Maduro’s capture by US forces and Machado’s Nobel Prize reveal the globalist agenda behind this diplomatic theater. As Pius IX warned, “the enemies of divine revelation… have adopted a new art of deception… spreading pestilent books among the lower classes” (Qui Pluribus, 14). The conciliar sect now serves as public relations arm for this New World Order, using “dialogue” to undermine national identities while advancing universal apostasy.
Conclusion: Ecclesial Treason Complete
This meeting exemplifies the conciliar sect’s total inversion of Catholic priorities. Where legitimate popes commanded rulers to “kiss the Son, lest He be angry” (Ps 2:12), antipope Leo XIV genuflects before revolutionary politicians. The absence of any mention of Venezuela’s need for conversion – or calls to prayer – proves these Vatican occupiers have fully embraced the “cult of man” condemned in Lamentabili Sane (Proposition 65). Let true Catholics recognize this spectacle as Satanic mockery, recalling Pope St. Pius V’s excommunication of Elizabeth I: “We declare the nobles, subjects and people… freed from their oath and all manner of duty, dominion and obedience” (Regnans in Excelsis). Only by rejecting these usurpers can we remain faithful to Christ the King.
