Yesterday was my 66th birthday, and I first want to thanks everyone who sent me messages, whether I know personally or not - they mean the world to me. Secondly to all my family and friends with whom I could not celebrate the day, thanks you so much a part of my life, and I look forward to seeing you. Yesterday I attended a Pontifical Byzantine Liturgy at the Stephansdom that was utterly amazing. Then I was able to show one of my very favourite people one of my very favourite shrines - Maria Lanzendorf! Then dinner with some more of my favourite people, and the ITI kids threw me a wonderful birthday party at the Keller. Wonderful day all in all. Now we are 66!
In short, according to “the most traditionalist Pope ever” – who is also an incorrupt saint – “bitter zeal” is utterly anti-Tradition. On the contrary, charity is the True Tradition. This is why we start our defence of Tradition by saying that Tradition is a means to an end. Also, there in fact is a tradition more important than the Latin Mass.
Lamentably, the modern Technocracy is now threatening to swallow our traditionlist movement, because it creates a psychological idolatry of bitter zeal. This is the work of the fallen angels who hate the traditionalist movement (“The Darkness Takes Me Alive”).

After an incredible weekend with @SirEvanAmato and friends in Florence, immersed in beauty, faith and Catholic Culture.
So many young people waiting to bring their faith to their fields in society.
And I learned you can be a traditional painter, just like that!

From Santa Maria Novella in Florence, two Memento Mori inscriptions, one with a skeleton and one with a clock.
Skeleton:
"IO FU QUEL CHE VOI SIETE,
E QUEL CHI SON VOI ANCHE SARETE"
"I was, what you are, and what I am, you also will be."
Clock
"Sic fluit occulte, sic multos decipit aetas/
Sic venit ad finem, quidquid in orbe manet.
Heu heu praeteritum non est revocabile tempus/
Heu propius tacito mors venit ipso pede."
something like this:
"Thus secretly flows, and many deceives, Age,
So does come to an end, everything staying in this world.
Woe, woe, passed-by time can never be called back,
woe ever closer creeps Death on silent foot."

If anyone's interested I'm teaching a 5 week course on the Psalms beginning next week with the Avila Institute: avila-institute.org/avila-co…
This is Catholic journalism from a man who cares about the soul of President Trump.
Blessed Virgin Mary - save the soul of President Trump!!!
🚨 Q: You're entering the next life [before God], all you have to do to enter paradise is feel love and forgiveness for James Comey, Nancy Pelosi, etc...can you do it?
TRUMP: Then I wouldn't be real, would I? The easy answer is, yes, I could forgive. They are extremely dishonest people, bad people, I love our country far more...the answer is no. I want to be honest.
Q: In judgement before God?
TRUMP: I do hate some of my enemies. Look what they put me through.
REPORTER: You had the most charmed and remarkable life of any American in my entire lifetime, and you can't find it in your heart to forgive some of your enemies?
TRUMP: All I have to do is say yes, I can. Can I be honest? I probably cannot do that. Because I do hate some of my enemies — and I always will.
Never heard Trump get asked such a deep question like that before.
He COULD just say "yes" and get out of the question, but he didn't
One thing you have to admit is this man is brutally honest.

NEW: Leo XIV made a firm defence of the unborn, during his 1st speech in Uruguay today
“The unborn already belong to the human family and to the future of their people. Their absolute dependence on their mother does not diminish the dignity to which they are entitled or the protection they deserve.
Welcoming a new life requires that fathers assume their responsibility alongside mothers, that the family offer its support, and that social conditions exist that allow both parents to raise and care for their children.
The protection of the unborn and the support of those who welcome them are inseparable.”
Some politicians are currently seeking to widen abortion access in Uruguay, but are reportedly waiting until after the papal visit
Abortion is currently legal on demand up to 12 wks.
After that, it is legal to 14wks for “fatal fetal abnormalities,” & after that only for “health risks” to mother

Posters line one of the main streets in Buenos Aires as Pope Leo arrives
They are calling for the removal of Cardinal Fernández as prefect of the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith.
Leo arrived in the city today & will be in Argentina until Wednesday
An entire wall in Buenos Aires’s Avenida de Mayo plastered with anti-Tucho posters. The message asks for the removal of Tucho for “the good of the Church” with a QR code link to a heretical homily. @Pontifex_es @Pontifex #LeoXIV #Argentina #CatholicChurch

Tonight at 7pm ET, I’ll be going live with @BishopMendi to discuss the Church’s mission to baptize all nations (and the state of that mission since Vatican II), his own “conversion towards Tradition,” the “spirit of Assisi” vs. St. Francis himself, and more: youtube.com/watch?v=A9fM3hei…
Learn more about Bishop Lippert and his diocese here: mendidiocese.com
Also, check out his recent speech at the 2026 Catholic Identity Conference: youtube.com/watch?v=x5vMirWZ…
We hope to see you in the live chat!
The event which King James’ government hoped his subjects would "never forget” has echoed through history, even down to the American Revolution, where the day was remembered as “Pope day” from the burning of the Pope in effigy.

In our parish, on All Saints Day, you can pull a name of a Saint or Blessed from a box, and are encouraged to learn more and become friends with him or her over the next year!
A BEAUTIFUL custom I believe.
