EWTN News reports on the failure of the U.S. Senate to pass the Pregnant Students’ Rights Act, which would have mandated colleges to inform pregnant students about resources to carry pregnancies to term. Concurrently, it details Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton’s lawsuit against Debra Lynch of Her Safe Harbor for mailing abortion drugs into Texas, allegedly used in a poisoning incident resulting in fetal death.
EWTN News reports (January 31, 2026) that “Archbishop” Paul Coakley, president of the USCCB, has declared immigration enforcement debates “a matter the U.S. Church simply can’t avoid,” while calling for “Holy Hours” following violent protests in Minneapolis. The article describes his meeting with President Trump discussing visa backlogs and “meaningful immigration reform,” alongside Jesuit “Fr.” R.J. Fichtinger’s plea to “divorce people from actions” amid civil unrest. This preoccupation with temporal solutions constitutes a modernist betrayal of the Church’s divine mission.
The EWTN News portal (January 31, 2026) reports on Cardinal Christophe Pierre’s interview, wherein the apostolic nuncio to the United States dismisses tensions between the Vatican and U.S. bishops as “normal,” praising the late antipope Francis as a “magnificent leader” while promoting synodal ambiguity, Eucharistic indifferentism, and immigration policies devoid of evangelization. Pierre’s remarks epitomize the conciliar sect’s betrayal of Catholic integralism, substituting divine law with humanistic dialogue.
The EWTN News article (January 31, 2026) reports on the Syrian military’s advance into Al-Jazeera, highlighting fears among local Christians of an ISIS resurgence and calls for “peaceful political channels” by figures like Chaldean Bishop Antoine Audo and Assyrian Democratic Organization deputy Basher Ishaq Saadi. The piece frames the crisis through naturalistic humanitarianism, omitting the supernatural mandate of Christ’s Kingship over nations.
EWTN News reports that Thailand’s Catholic bishops have issued a pastoral letter urging citizens to vote for “worthy candidates” in February elections. Archbishop Francis Xavier Vira Arpondratana of Bangkok frames voting as a moral duty invoking the Catechism (2240), emphasizing human dignity and anti-corruption while warning against abstention unless all candidates prove “morally unacceptable.” The article contextualizes Thailand’s political instability and describes the Church’s purported role as “social conscience.”
The EWTN News portal (January 31, 2026) reports a 75% decline in Catholic marriages since 1970 alongside a rise in nominal Catholics. It attributes this to “broader societal factors” like delayed adulthood, individualism, and cohabitation, while proposing “proactive” solutions such as marriage preparation programs and dating apps. The article cites “pope” Leo XIV’s vague exhortations against “false mercy” in annulments but avoids confronting the theological root of this collapse.
EWTN News portal describes Filipino overseas workers as “smugglers of the faith” (January 31, 2026), framing their economic migration as an accidental form of evangelization through cultural practices like Simbang Gabi and Marian devotions. The article quotes “Pope” Francis’ 2019 declaration that Filipinos “sow the faith” through presence rather than argument, alongside testimonials from figures like Philadelphia Auxiliary “Bishop” Efren Esmilla and “Fr.” Kenneth Rey Parsad. It celebrates how Filipino migrants allegedly revive dying parishes through lay leadership and devotional fervor.
EWTN News reports the case of Brett Smith (né Zagorac), a substitute teacher employed for over a year in multiple schools of the Chicago archdiocese despite a decades-long history of child molestation allegations across Illinois, Indiana, and Arizona. Court documents reveal at least 10 arrests since 2002 for crimes including felony child molesting, battery, and forgery, with convictions resulting in jail time. The archdiocese claims Smith passed state background checks, blaming governmental systems for failing to flag his record. Police arrested Smith on January 29, 2026, for aggravated criminal sexual abuse involving a juvenile, adding to charges in Evergreen Park. A family also filed a police complaint against Smith for misconduct during home tutoring arranged through the archdiocese. This scandal exemplifies the systemic collapse of ecclesiastical discipline under conciliar church structures.
The EWTN News portal (January 30, 2026) reports that 300 “Catholic” leaders, including 15 “bishops,” demanded the U.S. Senate condition ICE funding on migration policy changes. The signatories—including “Archbishop” John C. Wester and “Archbishop” Paul D. Etienne—invoke “family unity” and “human dignity” while opposing deportations under President Trump. Their letter cites a November 2025 USCCB statement condemning “indiscriminate mass deportation,” approved 216-5 by the conciliar sect’s hierarchy. This political maneuver exposes the conciliar sect’s total surrender to Marxist liberation theology, abandoning the Church’s divine mission for worldly activism.
The EWTN News portal (January 30, 2026) reports Cuban communist authorities interrogated two priests – Castor Álvarez Devesa and Alberto Reyes of Camagüey archdiocese – along with lay dissidents Dagoberto Valdés Hernández and Yoandy Izquierdo Toledo for advocating democratic reforms and criticizing economic conditions. The article frames this persecution through the lens of “human rights” violations while invoking the memory of Karol Wojtyła (“John Paul II”), whose 1998 visit allegedly inspired Cuban resistance. This narrative deliberately obscures the radix omnium malorum (root of all evils): the conciliar sect’s betrayal of Catholicism’s uncompromising opposition to communism and its cowardly silence about Christ’s Social Kingship.
