The Usurper’s Pilgrimage: Leo XIV’s Journey to the Heart of Apostasy

EWTN News portal reports that Paris Archbishop Laurent Ulrich has confirmed the itinerary for the apostolic journey of the usurper Robert Prevost, who styles himself “Pope Leo XIV,” to France, scheduled for September 25–28, 2026. The journey will include stops in Paris, Lourdes, and Metz, with events ranging from vespers at Notre-Dame Cathedral to an open-air “Mass” in Paris and a “Eucharistic celebration” at the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Lourdes. Ulrich described the visit as “a source of comfort and encouragement for many” and called for the faithful to prepare through prayer, volunteering, and financial support, emphasizing unity “behind the bishops in full communion with the successor of Peter.”

This so-called apostolic journey is not a mission of evangelization or the conversion of France to the Catholic faith, but a theatrical spectacle designed to legitimize the conciliar sect, promote the ecumenical and modernist agenda, and perpetuate the veneration of false apparitions — all while the neo-church continues its relentless march toward the abomination of desolation.

Vance’s “Catholicism”: A Convert’s Journey into the Abomination of Desolation

Leave a Comment / Antichurch / amdg

The EWTN portal reports that Vice President JD Vance has publicly narrated his journey into the Catholic Church, describing how fatherhood prompted a “soul-searching” that led him to convert in 2019, drawn by what he called the Church’s “beautiful ancient” traditions and the feeling that he “felt at home.” He praises the “dynamism” of a religiously pluralistic culture, celebrates his Hindu wife’s presence in their marriage as something that “brings a lot,” and expresses hope that his story might help others — “Catholic, Protestant, or otherwise” — find reconciliation with God. What Vance describes as a homecoming to the ancient faith is, upon examination, an embrace of the very conciliar sect that has gutted that faith from within, wrapped in the sentimental language of personal fulfillment and cultural nostalgia.

When “Religious Freedom” Masks the Neo-Church’s Subservience to Secular Power

Leave a Comment / Antichurch / amdg

EWTN News reports that a federal court in New Mexico granted a temporary restraining order allowing a Nigerian “priest,” Martin Umeatuegbu, to remain in the United States while the Archdiocese of Santa Fe petitions to upgrade his student visa to an R-1 religious worker visa. The decision, issued on June 4 by U.S. District Judge Kenneth Gonzales, came after the Trump administration placed holds on visa adjustments for nationals from “high-risk” countries, including Nigeria. The archdiocese had filed its petition on December 31, 2025, and Umeatuegbu was “ordained” on May 23, 2026, subsequently being assigned to St. Anne Parish in Santa Fe. The court cited the Religious Freedom Restoration Act, claiming the government’s policy “infringes on the archdiocese’s right to select its minister of choice.” This case, we are told, could set a precedent for other foreign-born “priests” from designated countries.

Neocatechumenal Ordinations in Jerusalem: A Symptom of the Conciliar Sect’s Subversion of the Priesthood

Leave a Comment / Antichurch / amdg

EWTN News reports that on June 6, 2026, Cardinal Pierbattista Pizzaballa, the Latin Patriarch of Jerusalem within the conciliar structures, ordained four priests from the Redemptoris Mater Seminary of Galilee, an institution of the Neocatechumenal Way. The ceremony took place at the Domus Galilaeae International Center, a site built by the Neocatechumenal Way on the shores of the Sea of Galilee. Pizzaballa’s homily emphasized the link between the priesthood and the Eucharist, the need for priests to be a “gift” to the community, and the unique challenges of serving in Jerusalem. This event is a direct manifestation of the conciliar sect’s systematic destruction of the Catholic priesthood and its replacement with a modernist, secularized caricature, all while operating from the very sites sanctified by Our Lord’s earthly ministry.

The Usurper Antipope Leo XIV Meets Bad Bunny: A Symptomatic Encounter of the Conciliar Sect’s Worldliness

Leave a Comment / Antichurch / amdg

The National Catholic Register portal reports that on June 8, 2026, the usurper antipope Leo XIV (Robert Prevost) met with Puerto Rican singer Bad Bunny (Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio) and his family at the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium in Madrid. The encounter, confirmed by the Vatican, allowed the two to greet and converse briefly, coinciding with both being in the city—the antipope for a vigil with young people, and the artist for a series of concerts. The archbishop of Madrid, Cardinal José Cobo Cano, had previously expressed openness to such a meeting, stating that “the pope is never closed to speaking with anyone who wishes to enter into dialogue with him.” This meeting, devoid of any spiritual or doctrinal significance, is a glaring symptom of the conciliar sect’s relentless pursuit of worldly relevance and its abandonment of the Church’s supernatural mission.

A Bishop in the Wilderness: The Conciliar Church’s Slow Death in Russia

Leave a Comment / Antichurch / amdg

The Pillar portal reports on Bishop Clemens Pickel, a German-born prelate who has led the Diocese of St. Clement at Saratov in southern Russia for over two decades. The article, based on an email interview, details his upbringing in communist East Germany, his transfer to the Soviet Union in 1990, his episcopal appointment at age 36, and his recent re-election as president of Russia’s bishops’ conference. Pickel describes a diocese spanning 1.3 million square kilometers with only 20,000 Catholics, served by a dwindling number of mostly foreign priests. He speaks of declining numbers, deported clergy, closing religious communities, and the challenges of the “synodal process.” The interview reveals a man who has spent 35 years in the conciliar structures of the former Soviet Union, yet whose vision of the Church’s mission—”bringing Jesus Christ back home”—is fatally constrained by the very modernist framework he inhabits, a framework that has rendered the Catholic presence in Russia a demographic and spiritual irrelevance.

The Pickel Paradox: A Modernist Bishop’s Tale of Ruin and Complacency

Leave a Comment / Antichurch / amdg

The Pillar portal reports on an interview with Bishop Clemens Pickel, who has led the Diocese of St. Clement in Saratow, Russia, for over two decades. His sprawling jurisdiction covers over 1.3 million square kilometers—an area larger than France, Spain, and Germany combined—yet it is home to a mere 20,000 Catholics. Born in communist East Germany in 1961, Bishop Pickel was ordained a priest in 1988 and ventured to the Soviet Union in 1990, before the fall of the Berlin Wall. He became a bishop at the remarkably young age of 36 in 1998 and was appointed the first bishop of the newly erected Diocese of St. Clement in Saratov in 2002. Since 2017, he has served (with a break) as the head of the Conference of Catholic Bishops of Russia. In May of this year, he was received in a private audience by “Pope” Leo XIV. This interview, conducted via email, covers his childhood in the GDR, his vocation, the turbulent years following the Soviet Union’s collapse, and the current challenges facing the Catholic Church in Russia.

The Neo-Church’s “Truth”: A Humanist Shell Game Disguised as Catholic Education

Leave a Comment / Antichurch / amdg

The National Register portal reports on a commentary by Father Dave Pivonka, president of Franciscan University of Steubenville, praising the statements of the antipope Leo XIV regarding Catholic higher education. Pivonka enthusiastically embraces the conciliar narrative of “encounter,” “human flourishing,” and the integration of AI into academic life, presenting these as the fulfillment of the Church’s mission to “form saints.” The article reveals the complete capitulation of so-called “Catholic” education to the spirit of the world, where the supernatural order is replaced by therapeutic humanism, and the pursuit of truth is reduced to a technological and sociological exercise. This is not Catholic education; it is the final stage of the Modernist revolution’s conquest of the last bastions of resistance.

The Usurper on Peter’s Throne Embraces the Vulgarity of the World

Leave a Comment / Antichurch / amdg

The EWTN News portal reports that the individual currently occupying the Vatican, Leo XIV (Robert Prevost), met with the Puerto Rican reggaeton artist Bad Bunny (Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio) and his family at the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium in Madrid on June 8, 2026. The portal notes that the two were able to “greet each other and converse,” taking advantage of both being in the city simultaneously. The archbishop of Madrid, Cardinal José Cobo Cano, had previously stated that “the pope is never closed to speaking with anyone who wishes to enter into dialogue with him.” The article further mentions that Bad Bunny’s reggaeton repertoire has been “sharply criticized for its vulgarity and degradation of human behavior,” yet the Puerto Rico Bishops’ Conference President Eusebio Ramos welcomed the singer’s words that “have reminded us of Christian values, such as fraternity and the primacy of love.” This meeting, far from being an isolated anecdote, is a symptomatic manifestation of the profound apostasy that has consumed the conciliar sect, demonstrating its utter abandonment of the Church’s supernatural mission in favor of a naturalistic embrace of worldly degradation.

Papal Anniversaries, Spanish Politics, and the Toy Story Distraction

Leave a Comment / Antichurch / amdg

Pillar Catholic portal reports on the activities of the antipope Leo XIV (Robert Prevost) during his visit to Spain, his upcoming 44th priestly ordination anniversary, and various news items including the Dallas Charter revision and a story about a Catholic school graduate with Down syndrome. The article presents the antipope’s visit as largely successful, his speeches as intellectually significant, and his gestures—such as speaking Catalan in Barcelona—as evidence of his humanity and diplomatic skill. Beneath the veneer of Catholic commentary, the article functions as uncritical propaganda for the conciliar sect, normalizing the authority of an antipope while ignoring the theological and ecclesial catastrophe that his very existence represents.
