A Heretic’s Appointment: The Continuation of the Conciliar Sect’s Missionary Apostasy

The National Catholic Register reports that on May 13, 2026, the individual currently occupying the Vatican and calling himself “Pope Leo XIV” appointed Father Emilio Biosca Agüero, OFM Cap, as the third “bishop” of Venice, Florida. The same “pope” also accepted the resignation of Frank J. Dewane, 76, who led that diocese since 2007. The appointee served for more than 20 years as a “missionary” in Papua New Guinea and Cuba, and most recently served as “pastor” of the Shrine of the Sacred Heart in Washington, D.C. He holds degrees from institutions deeply embedded in the post-conciliar revolution, including a licentiate from the John Paul II Institute for Studies on Marriage and Family. This appointment is not merely a routine administrative act within the conciliar sect; it is a theological statement — one that reveals the uninterrupted trajectory of apostasy that has characterized the structures occupying the Vatican since the death of Pope Pius XII.

Honoring a “Blessed” of the Conciliar Sect: The Hopko Commemoration Exposed

The National Catholic Register reports that hundreds of Greek Catholic faithful gathered in Hrabské, Slovakia, on May 10, 2026, to mark the 50th anniversary of the death of Vasiľ Hopko, a bishop imprisoned and tortured by the communist regime in Czechoslovakia. The celebration was presided over by Metropolitan Archbishop Jonáš Maxim of Prešov, with Bishop Kurt Burnette of the Byzantine Catholic Eparchy of Passaic, New Jersey, among the concelebrants. Hopko was beatified by John Paul II in 2003. Archbishop Maxim praised Hopko as a “saint” who “never sought glory,” while Bishop Burnette warned that “freedom brings its own dangers,” cautioning that the pursuit of power and money makes people “even less free” in times without religious persecution. The article presents Hopko as a model of fidelity under communist oppression and frames the commemoration as an occasion to draw lessons about faithfulness in freedom. Yet beneath this seemingly edifying narrative lies a web of doctrinal compromises, historical half-truths, and the fundamental illegitimacy of the conciliar apparatus that produced and promotes this “blessing.”

Persecution Narrative Used to Legitimize Conciliar Clergy and Indultist Structures

From ACI Prensa/EWTN News portal (May 13, 2026): The article reports on the ordination to the priesthood of Cristhian Mendieta Hernández, a Nicaraguan who fled the country due to the repression of the Ortega regime and was ordained in Miami by “Archbishop” Thomas Wenski. The text is a classic example of the conciliar sect instrumentalizing a real political persecution to legitimize its own structures and clergy, completely ignoring the true spiritual crisis of the Church. It is a narrative that serves to reinforce the authority of the post-conciliar “hierarchy” while remaining silent on the apostasy that has rendered the Church incapable of effectively confronting the enemies of Christ the King.

The Neo-Church Turns to Spectacle: Vatican Content on Commercial Digital Screens

Vatican News portal reports that the Dicastery for Communication of the Holy See has entered into a commercial collaboration with the Italian digital platform “Selfiestreet” to broadcast official Vatican images and multimedia content on giant digital screens in prominent public locations across Rome and Milan, beginning on 17 May 2026. The initiative, described as bringing “the voice and activities of the Holy See to a wider audience through contemporary forms of digital communication,” is expected to expand to other Italian cities in the coming months. The collaboration builds on an earlier campaign during the 2025 Christmas season, when images of Leo XIV and Christmas messages were displayed near Saint Peter’s Basilica.

U.S. Government Moves to Seize Land from New Mexico Diocese in Order to Build Border Wall

EWTN News reports that the United States government, through the Department of Homeland Security, has initiated an eminent domain action against the Diocese of Las Cruces in New Mexico, seeking to seize a parcel of land at the base of Mount Cristo Rey — the site of a 29-foot statue of Christ and an annual pilgrimage destination for thousands of the faithful. The government proposes to pay just over $183,000 for the privilege of erecting fencing, vehicle barriers, security lighting, cameras, and sensors on ground sanctified by Catholic devotion. The diocese, for its part, filed a response claiming the seizure would “substantially burden” religious freedom and rights of worship. This case is a microcosm of a far larger spiritual catastrophe: the systematic subordination of God’s rights to the idolatrous claims of the secular state, a subordination in which the conciliar sect itself is complicit through its own revolutionary doctrines on religious liberty.

The Neo-Church Venerates a Heretic at a Masonic Shrine — On the Feast of the Fatima Deception

The National Catholic Register, citing Vatican News, EWTN, and ACI Prensa, reports that on May 13, 2026 — the anniversary of the so-called “apparitions” of Fatima and the assassination attempt against John Paul II — Leo XIV (Robert Prevost) stopped at the site in St. Peter’s Square where Karol Wojtyła was shot in 1981, knelt, touched the commemorative plaque, and prayed in silence. The article presents this gesture as an act of authentic Catholic piety, linking it to the Fatima cult and to the “Marian catechesis” delivered by the usurper during his general audience, in which he described Mary as “model of the Church” and “icon of the Mystery,” drawing on the conciliar document *Lumen Gentium*. The article frames the entire event within the Fatima narrative, including the claim that the Virgin Mary “guided the bullet” and saved Wojtyła’s life. This report is not merely a news item; it is a concentrated exhibition of the theological bankruptcy, historical fraud, and spiritual deception that define the post-conciliar sect occupying the Vatican.

The Paramasonic Stagecraft of “Holy See” Diplomacy

VaticanNews portal reports on May 13, 2026, that thirteen ambassadors accredited to the so-called “Holy See” were awarded the title of Knight or Dame Grand Cross of the Order of Pius IX, following two years of diplomatic service. The ceremony was held on the anniversary of the “Pope’s” election, with Archbishop Paolo Rudelli, Substitute for General Affairs at the Secretariat of State, presenting insignia and parchments. This spectacle of post-conciliar diplomatic pageantry, draped in the stolen vestments of Catholic tradition, reveals the utter spiritual bankruptcy of the neo-church’s paramasonic apparatus — an institution that has reduced the Church’s supernatural mission to the level of secular statecraft and Masonic ritualism.

Kidnapped Priest Released After Three Months — The Neo-Church’s Silence on Martyrdom and the Crisis of Faith in Nigeria

Vatican News portal reports the release of Fr. Nathaniel Asuwaye, a priest of the Catholic Diocese of Kafanchan in Nigeria, who was abducted on February 7, 2026, from his parish residence in Kaduna State. The diocese issued a statement on May 12 expressing “deep gratitude to God” for his safe return after three months in captivity, noting that he is “in good spirits” and receiving medical care. The statement emphasized prayer, Marian devotions, and communal solidarity as instrumental in securing his release. However, the fate of ten parishioners kidnapped alongside him remains unknown, and at least two other Catholic priests are still held captive in Nigeria. The article frames the event within broader concerns over insecurity and criminality, calling for “stronger security measures” and “renewed efforts to protect human life.” Yet, from the perspective of integral Catholic faith, this narrative reveals not only the physical peril faced by clergy in regions plagued by violence but also the profound theological and spiritual bankruptcy of the post-conciliar Church’s response—or lack thereof—to persecution, martyrdom, and the supernatural dimensions of suffering.

Honoring a “Blessed” of the Conciliar Sect: The Hopko Commemoration Exposed

EWTN portal reports on a liturgical celebration in Hrabské, Slovakia, marking the 50th anniversary of the death of Vasiľ Hopko, a Greek Catholic bishop imprisoned and tortured under the communist regime in Czechoslovakia. The event, presided over by Metropolitan Archbishop Jonáš Maxim of Prešov and concelebrated by Bishop Kurt Burnette of the Byzantine Catholic Eparchy of Passaic, was attended by hundreds of faithful, clergy, and religious. Hopko was beatified by John Paul II in 2003. The celebration, broadcast on Slovak public television, serves as yet another occasion for the post-conciliar structures to instrumentalize the memory of those who suffered under communism while remaining silent about the far greater spiritual catastrophe unfolding within the so-called “Church” itself.

SSPX Defiance of Vatican Usurpers Exposes the Bankruptcy of Conciliar Authority

National Catholic Register portal reports that Cardinal Víctor Manuel Fernández, prefect of the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith, warned on May 13, 2026, that the Society of St. Pius X (SSPX) faces excommunication for planning to consecrate bishops without the mandate of the usurper Leo XIV. The cardinal quoted from John Paul II’s *Ecclesia Dei* (1988), stating that such an act constitutes “a schismatic act” and that “formal adherence to schism constitutes a grave offense against God.” The SSPX, which exclusively celebrates the Traditional Latin Mass, confirmed its intention to proceed with illicit episcopal consecrations at Écône, Switzerland on July 1 — the anniversary of Archbishop Lefebvre’s 1988 consecrations. Cardinals Müller, Sarah, and Zen have urged the society to avoid schism. The conciliar apparatus now brandishes canonical threats against those who preserve the true Mass, while itself propagating heresies condemned by the perennial Magisterium.
