Consistory Done Like Middle School - Leo XIV Is Responsible

Journalists Raymond Arroyo and Robert Royal, and canon lawyer and priest Gerald Murray of New York talked on January 16 about the consistory of January 7-8. A short sequence, video below.
Robert Royal commenting on Cardinal Grech’s contribution on synod:
I think you hear that and you say, what in God’s name can that possibly mean? This is the gobbledygook we’ve been listening to for years about synodality and all this confusion. I mean, one of the things I’ve heard from sources is that many of these cardinals have said, "Look, we’re just confused about this. We’re tired of going over the same things again and again." These pronouncements keep coming out.
When I read Cardinal Grech, I said to myself: This guy knows they haven’t gotten anything substantial done. You can try to preserve the illusion that there’s somehow a dynamic age of the Spirit underway, but it’s about to die.
Raymond Arroyo:
Well, he says there are good fruits here. He says fruits are blooming all over the place. …ច្រើន

The unification of journalistic endeavours was detailed in a press release on 15 January.
The new umbrella platform EwtnNews.com has been built using the Sanity.io content management system.
It is currently available in English and will soon be expanded to include Spanish, followed by five additional languages. Traffic from CatholicNewsAgency.com will gradually be redirected to the new site, with the full transition scheduled for 24 January.

A Great Day (Award Winning Catholic Short Film) Our Lady of Mount Carmel Studios youtube.com/watch?v=Hs980DuOBNU "A Great Day" (winner of the New York Indie Film Festival Awards) is a powerful short film that captures the heart of the Catholic faith, revealing the profound beauty of true forgiveness, healing, and spiritual renewal through the sacramental life of the Church. Rather than merely telling, this film shows—through visual storytelling and prayerful moments—the real power of God’s grace in action. Set amidst the real struggles of everyday Christians, the story explores how brokenness, resentment, and guilt are not the end—but the beginning of transformation when brought to Christ. Through the presence and ministry of Catholic priests, the film depicts the vital role of the sacraments, especially Confession, Anointing of the Sick, the Last Rites, and most importantly, the Eucharist, the source and summit of our faith. It also highlights the importance of prayer, both personal …ច្រើន

1 Samuel 9:1-4, 10c, 17-19; 10:1
Samuel said to Saul, “The Lord anoints you ruler over his people Israel.”
A reminder that it is better to lead a people with God’s love, joy, and peace.
Mark 2:13-17
“Jesus went out along the sea. All the crowd came to him and he taught them.”
The phrase “the whole crowd came to him” means more than just those people at that time. All crowds and leaders would benefit from allowing the Lord to reign over the people and in the hearts of the leaders.

Benedict XVI warned Cardinal Marx in 2021 that Germany's Synodal Way “will do harm and end badly if it is not stopped.” Marx apparently ignored the warning.

Cardinal Marx Ignored "Great Concern" of Benedict XVI Over German Synod

An unprecedented episode involving Cardinal Reinhard Marx of Munich occurred in 2021. It was published by Nico Spuntoni in IlGiornale.it on January 17.
Benedict XVI contacted his successor as Archbishop of Munich to express his “great concern” about the synodal process in Germany. He was convinced that this Synodal Path would cause harm and would end badly if it were not stopped.
Cardinal Marx ignored the appeal of Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI.
Additional information concerning the German Synod
On January 17, Pope Leo XIV received Archbishop Nikola Eterović, the Apostolic Nuncio to Berlin, to discuss the German bishops’ statute for a proposed Synodal Council. This body would start in 2026, be permanent and would grant lay members decision-making power.
Furthermore, Spuntoni reveals that Cardinal Marx called during the January 7–8 consistory for the introduction of female deacons. He is the principal architect of the German synodal process.

PRIME MINISTER MARK CARNEY JUST SAID IT OUT LOUD “I believe the progress that we have made and the partnership (with China) sets us up well for the New… World… Order.” Not rushed. Not off the cuff. He pauses between every word - New… World… Order - like he wants it to land. This wasn’t code. This wasn’t a slip. This was said out loud, on camera, deliberately.

Tucker Carlson — Sergey Karaganov Warning: Russia Will Nuke UK & Germany | 3 Minute Summary youtube.com/watch?v=vJrjh-eWr6A When the future of Europe and the rules that govern war collide, the consequences can be existential. Tucker Carlson sat down with a recorded statement from Sergey Karaganov, a longtime adviser to Vladimir Putin, and what emerged is a warning nobody should ignore. Karaganov’s admission on camera that "we, Russia, will eliminate the UK and Germany with nuclear weapons" if the Ukraine war proceeds at its present tempo reframes the entire conflict. Carlson walks listeners through the evidence: a public rewrite of Russia's nuclear doctrine, hypersonic strikes intended as signals, and official rhetoric that lowers thresholds for escalation. Under the new doctrine, Russia can lawfully target nonnuclear states acting as proxies. Carlson traces the deeper history: NATO expansion after two thousand one, a rejected Putin overture to join the alliance, and a series of misreads …ច្រើន

Well, Mike Adams was playing on his podcast excerpts of Tucker. He (Adams) said , (and has said this more than once) that if the Rus nuke the City of London, the whole world will rejoice and a great evil will be eliminated from the earth, a satanic evil.. I think though, and from my POV who live here..., where sin abounds, grace abounds even more..

Points VIII-IX - ‘The Spiritual Combat' by Fr. Dom Lorenzo Scupoli (1530-1610); First published in 1589 A.D.; pages 6-7

[Father Dom Lorenzo Scupoli – XVI-XVII Century AD; Otranto, Kingdom of Naples/Naples, Kingdom of Naples; (aged 79-80); Priest; Spiritual Writer]
“Point VIII ~ Of the hindrances to a Right Discernment of Things, and of the method to be adopted in order to understand them properly
The cause of our not rightly discerning all these things and many others is, that we conceive a love or hatred of them at first sight.
Our understanding is thus darkened, so that it cannot judge of them correctly.
Lest you fall into this delusion, take all possible care to keep your will pure and free from inordinate affection for any thing whatsoever.
When any object, then, is presented to you, view it with your understanding; and consider it maturely before you are moved by hatred to reject it, if it be a thing contrary to your inclinations, or by love to desire it, if it be pleasing to them.
For thus the understanding, being unclouded by passion, will be free and clear, and able to perceive the truth, and to …ច្រើន

Systematic Psychological Abuse within Benedictine Sisters of Montmartre

An independent investigation has documented decades of spiritual abuse, psychological control, and systemic governance failures within the Benedictine Sisters of the Sacred Heart of Montmartre. The contemplative community is based at the Sacré-Cœur of Paris, France.
Background and timeline
The congregation, founded in the late 19th century in connection with the national vow and devotion to the Sacred Heart, is dedicated to liturgical prayer, perpetual adoration, and the reception of pilgrims at the Sacré-Cœur Basilica.
In June 2021, the congregation initiated an internal review.
In 2022, former members were formally included in the process.
In February 2023, the sisters publicly acknowledged serious internal abuses, issued an apology, and requested an external investigation.
The independent report, completed after 18 months of work, was published in January 2026.
Scope of the investigation
The commission conducted 159 interviews with current sisters, former members, priests, bishops …ច្រើន

These “independent commissions” do not understand the meaning of suffering, sacrifice, and self-denial, and call all of this “abuse of power.” It is entirely in line with the post-conciliar church, which is trying to eliminate the cross from Christ's message.

Schism in Germany, Leo XIV’s High-Stakes Game

(Photo credit: CNS)
ROME, 17 January 2026 Pope Leo XIV met Friday with the apostolic nuncio to Germany, Archbishop Nikola Eterović, amid reports that their talks focused on the German bishops’ planned vote to establish a permanent Synodal Conference that would grant laypeople decision-making authority equal to bishops, allow doctrinal changes by majority vote, and place Church finances under shared control.
Writing in Il Giornale this morning, Italian journalist Nico Spuntoni
said it is “inevitable” that the Pope’s meeting with his nuncio to Germany would be “dominated by the imminent vote of the German Bishops’ Conference on the Statutes of the Synodal Conference.”
The vote is scheduled for the bishops’ plenary assembly Feb. 19–22 in Augsburg.
It follows a Nov. 22 meeting in Fulda, where bishops and lay representatives unanimously approved the statutes for a permanent national synodal body composed of bishops, representatives of the Central Committee of German Catholics (ZdK …
