During today’s Regina Caeli prayer, Leo XIV paid tribute to his predecessor for his “great witness of faith and love.” Francis died on Easter Monday last year (April 21, 2025) at the age of 88. Leo XIV said, “In the light of the Risen Lord, we remember Pope Francis today with special affection.” Fittingly, he warned that the truth is often obscured by fake news, “that is, by lies, insinuations, and unfounded suspicions.” #newsTqowhltbxb
Not the Catholic Faith obviously. In a sense though he was in that when you depart from the true Faith you become increasingly unhinged. We witnessed that for sure.
Bergoglio not only defied God, but his anti-magisterial teachings contradict Catholic faith and morals, demonstrating that he was not a pope either. The Church has automatically excommunicated the defenders and accomplices of heretics. That fact alone is proof of Prevost's obstinacy in rebellion against God and his complete adherence to Bergoglian heresy. Bergoglio, instead of repenting, died obstinate in his rebellion against God and the Church. And Prevost follows the same path of obstinacy and final impenitence. In the sacrilegious anti-church sect of Bergoglio and Prevost, the gates of hell prevail—namely, heresy and vice: the sin of sodomy and adultery. This further demonstrates that Prevost has not repented of being an adherent of Marxist liberation pseudotheology, nor of his act of public apostasy in worshipping Pachamama.

[St. Anthony of Padua XII-XIII Century AD; Lisbon, Kingdom of Portugal/Padua, Holy Roman Empire; (aged 35); powerful preaching, expert knowledge of scripture, and undying love and devotion to the poor and the sick; canonized less than a year after his death; Doctor of the Church] 9 ~ St. Saint Anthony Consoler of persecuted Women St. Anthony always took a great interest in women in- distress, or persecuted, and they therefore look on him as their special protector. Among those who, owing to the sanctity of the Franciscans, held them in great veneration and aided them in their daily wants, was a lady who suffered much from a jealous and irritable husband. One evening, after finishing some work and making some purchases for the Brothers, finding it too late to take them to the monastery that night, she took them home with her. This so greatly roused the anger and jealousy of her husband that, not content with loading her with reproaches, he pulled almost all her hair off her head. The poor …Zaidi
"12 ~ The Carved Capon St. Anthony was one day invited by a party of heretics to come to dine with them, in order, as they said, to give them the opportunity of laughing at his stupidity. He good-naturedly accepted their invitation. After sit ting down to table a large bat, such as are found in Sicily, was served up to him, with the request to carve it. When, without being the least disconcerted, he began to do so, they could hardly refrain from laughing aloud; but soon their laughter was changed into astonishment, for hardly had the saint begun to carve the wretched bird before it was changed into a magnificent capon, emitting the most delicious smell. This miracle so completely changed their hearts that they not only acknowledged the power of the servant of God, but renounced their errors and were received into the Church.”
Hundreds of empty seats during Leo XIV’s Easter Vigil: Matt Butorac, a Catholic pilgrimage guide, reported on X that there were “hundreds of empty seats” during the Easter Vigil at St Peter’s Basilica. The screenshots, taken from a video he shared for "those claiming it was not empty", show the basilica during the baptisms. Butorac attributes this to ticketing issues and disorganised queues. However, shortly before the Eucharist began, entry was permitted without tickets and everyone was able to enter.
EMTY SEATS: Catholic Traveler had a video on X.com from yesterday's Easter Night Eucharist with Leo XIV. Screenshots (fair use)
EMMAUS: THE MASS HIDDEN IN A RESURRECTION STORY, WHAT MOST CHRISTIANS READ… BUT NEVER SEE Most people read the story of Emmaus as a beautiful encounter. Two disciples. A long walk. A mysterious stranger. But if you read carefully… You are not just reading a story. You are watching the first Easter Mass. 1. THEY WERE WALKING AWAY, JUST LIKE MANY TODAY The Gospel says: They were leaving Jerusalem (Luke 24:13) Why? Because they had lost hope. “We had hoped…” (Luke 24:21) They were not just walking physically. They were walking away from faith. 2. THE LITURGY OF THE WORD BEGINS Jesus joins them… But they do not recognize Him. Instead of revealing Himself immediately, He does something strange: He explains the Scriptures. “Beginning with Moses and all the prophets…” (Luke 24:27) This is not random. This is structure. Because every Mass begins the same way: The Word is proclaimed The Scriptures are explained And something begins to happen: “Were not our hearts burning within us…” (Luke …Zaidi
GK Chesterton ~~ The difficulty of explaining 'Why I am Catholic' is that there are ten thousand reasons all amounting to one reason - 'That Catholicism is True'...

And isn't this the same apostate who wishes Muslims a Happy Ramadan? And who congratulates an Anglican heretic? And who allows himself to be subjected to the incantations of shamans? All while brazenly presenting himself as the pope of all false religions—and, moreover, demanding to be recognized as Pope.
