Pope Francis hit his bedside table and suffers major contusion

Editor’s Note: The Catholic Religion is the true Faith, revealed by the one and only true Living God, Who gives a just recompense to every man, for the good or evil he does, rewards for doing good, and punishments for doing evil, in this life and in the next.  Recently we saw Pope Francis attempt the heretical reformation of the Catholic Church by declaring the nonsensical and heretical Synodal Document “ordinary magisterium”.  After which, he was struck with some malady in his left eye.

On Friday, he fell and hit his bedside table and suffered a major bruise to his face on the left side of his chin. This was the day before he had the diabolical temerity to raise to the dignity of the Cardinalate numerous men who agree with him in his heretical ‘Fiducia supplicans”, where he called on clergy to employ the Holy Name of God to approve of the worst sexual perversions on the planet.

God will not be mocked. And if you mock Him, He has Angels who are experts in dishing out punishments and punches. — And though there is no historical evidence that Saint Nicholas of Myra punched Arius, the heretic, in the face, it is notable that Pope Francis had his fall on the Feast of good old Saint Nick!

From a medical point of view, Pope Francis’ increasing frequency of medical issues is a sign that the bells will soon toll for him. It is a darn shame that he has squandered so many of the graces of God which could have made him honest, holy and zealous in true service to Him.

UPDATE: During the solemn veneration of the Statue of the Immaculate in the Piazza di Spagna, today, at Rome, Pope Francis was seen hobbled, using a 5 footed cane. So it appears his knee is inflammed and that might have been the cause of his fall. — In this video, Pope Francis can be seen to be gasping for air, fraught with tremors and has an exceptionally swollen face. It is a wonder that his doctors are not attempting to correct his bloated tissue problem. — Alas when it comes time to pray to the Holy Virgin, Pope Francis launches into a Protestant type of homily where in the midst of praying to Our Lady he speaks about economic and political problems and reminds everyone that a Jubilee Year is about to begin!

VATICAN desecrates Jubilee by approving Pilgrimage of Sodomites

Editor’s Note: As I said in my report yesterday about the carpet-ban on Masses at the Basilica of the Holy Cross, I think the Jubilee year is going to be a flop.

Now with this report, I urge all families and pro-family organizations to BOYCOTT the Jubilee, lest your children be sexually assaulted by strange and immoral people coming to the city to meet Pope Francis.

At this point, I will not omit to say, again, that all those who know of the Sutri Initiative, but still refuse to speak of it on their influential websites (Ann Barnhardt, Eric Sammons, Frank Walker, Michael Matt, Taylor Marshall, Dr. Anthony Stine, Matt Gaspers, ETWN, CNA, Edwin Pentin, Marco Tosatti, Andrea Cionci, Don Minutella etc. etc.) are going to merit the awful punishment for allowing Rome to “lose the Faith and become the Seat of the Antichrist”, as Our Lady warned Melanie at La Salette, because by their intentional silence about the only canonical and juridically valid way of judging the invalidity of a man’s claim to to the Papal Throne, they share in causam in the malice of Pope Francis and enable that malice to continually bear fruit.

Dr. Feser, who gaslighted on Benedict XVI’s Renunciation, says “Don’t tolerate being gaslit!”

Editor’s Note: Here Dr. Feser gaslights the faithful once again, by saying, since the Church never taught that a pope is always infallible, he can be a manifest, pertinacious heretic. — This illation (logical argument) is obviously dishonest, since infallibility regards the exercise of the teaching authority of the Roman Pontiff, but heresy is always a personal sin or crime.

I share this video, to make it clear why someone who insists on social conservatism (GOP) also does not want Catholics to ask the Church to haul Pope Francis to a Provincial Council. — And yes, that is Matt Frad, even though he has gone from appearing to be an English academic to an Argentine Gaucho (Cowboy).

As for Dr. Feser implying that “If Christ tolerates this, so should we”, his implicit argument is the utter blasphemy and quite contrary to the entire teaching of Our Divine Master, as practiced by the Apostles, who severely punished and expelled malefactors from office and from the Church.

Dr. Feser also says, blasphemously, “The Pope is the most important man on Earth”. But in the Catholic Faith, the most important Man on Earth is Jesus Christ in the Most Blessed Sacrament, Who is true God and true Man, always.

Andrea Cionci, the journalist and opera singer, ably refuted Feser’s attempt to keep Catholics from thinking about the anomalies in Pope Benedict’s Renunciation, here.

Dr. Feser is considered one of the more famous and noted philosophers of the United States, which is not saying a lot about the state of intellectual integrity in America.

I won’t continue to list his errors, as his talk on the Papacy is an Operation Gaslight Express. — Dr. Feser confesses to being a re-convert to the Catholic Faith. He is another example of someone who did not learn his catechism correctly when he converted.

ROME: Rector of Basilica of Holy Cross to carpet-ban Masses there during Jubilee Year

Exclusive Report by Br. Alexis Bugnolo

The Basilica of the Holy Cross in Jerusalem, at Rome, is one of the holiest places of pilgrimage in the Eternal City, because it houses the largest collection of major relics of Christ’s Passion and Death in the world.

These relics include, (1) the largest single piece of the Wood of the Holy Cross upon which Christ was Crucified and which was excavated by St. Helena, mother of the Emperor Constantine; (2) One of the Nails with which Christ was affixed to the Cross; (3) one of the Thorns from the Crown of Thorns, which was placed on His sacred Brow to humiliate and torture Him; (4) The cross-beam of the Cross of the Good Thief; (5) the Titulum, upon which Pontius Pilate wrote the sentence of punishment in 3 languages: Jesus Christ, King of the Judeans.

So naturally speaking, during a Jubilee Year — which begins Dec. 25, 2024, and lasts until January 6, 2026 — the Basilica is the pilgrimage destination for millions of Catholics, both laymen and clergy.

But this Jubilee Year will be different, because NO MASSES will be allowed to be celebrated anywhere in the Basilica by pilgrim priests. Even Bishops with a large number of pilgrims attending them in a single group have to make prior arrangements to have permission. They also have to be a Bishop approved by the Rector of the Basilica.

Moreover, no masses will be allowed at any of the side altars, nor in the Chapel of the Relics.

No masses, in any language, not even Italian or Latin, will be allowed, except the morning and Sunday masses of the local Parish, at which the Rector or his staff preside.

I have all this information from the Parish secretary, who confirmed it for me in person. In fact, when I assumed she was referring to Masses celebrated only at the main altar, I asked about masses at the side altar, and she looked so shocked, as if I had asked permission about Satanic Rituals.

When I asked about the reason for the universal ban on the Mass, in any language or rite, the secretary told me that the vast numbers of pilgrims would make it impossible to allow separate masses and still control the crowds visiting.

I do not know about the crowds. I tend to think the Jubilee year will be a nothing burger, since the parking lots in the tourist areas of the city, which are usually full are presently nearly 50% empty.

The sacristy of the Basilica, presently used as a parish office, featured vinyl banners with reproductions of Renaissance art, full of male nudity of one kind or another, from floor to ceiling on both sides.  So as I wondered at this carpet ban on the Mass, I wondered what the reason was.

Surely, to celebrate the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass in the vicinity of the very relics of Christ’s Passion is a good thing, no?

FromRome.info has twice featured the Basilica in Videos, here, and here; for those who cannot or won’t come to Rome during the Jubilee.

USA: TX Federal Judge blocks BOI Law nationwide

Editor’s Note: The Beneficial Ownership Information (BOI) law was one of the worst laws passed under the Biden Regime. It required all small businesses to share personal information, even place of current residence, with the U. S. Federal Government, for such a wide range of persons in a company that it was tantamount to giving elected and unelected Federal officers a database of information which could used to politically persecute their opponents, physically harass their workers, and even undertake targeted confiscation of property.

Google continues to Black-out FromRome.Info reports

by Br. Alexis Bugnolo

I often complain that it is difficult for new readers to find FromRome.Info, because since the summer of 2022, the Globalists have begun to remove true opposition sites from their publicized databases.

So from time to time, I experiment to see what the level of censorship is. So here goes …

A Test, done on Dec. 4, 2024 A. D.:

Here is the example of one search, where I used Google, whose bots regularly crawl ALL the pages at FromRome.Info, to let me know how many articles at FromRome.info mention Msgr. Nicola Bux:

COMMENTARY

That’s right, Google is publicly claiming that there are only two articles among the more than 11,520+ articles, that mention Msgr. Nicola Bux!

The Truth his however, if you use the FromRome.Info search bar:

Is that you can find 12 such articles. Six times more articles than Google admits exists! Click image below to see for yourself!

IT IS TIME TO CALL GOOGLE WHAT IT IS,

G lobalist
O rganized
O nline
G ag
L ie and
E viscerate

Engine….

I would ask all of my readers who are residents of countries where internet censorship is illegal to file a criminal complaint against Google for what they are doing. And I thank you in advance and assure you of my prayers!

Dr. Marshall shocked, 83% of his viewers hold Benedict was the true pope until death

Editor’s Note: See what he says at 17:00 minute mark. Dr. Marshall confirms the contents of the letters disclosed and translated here at FromRome.info on Dec. 2. Dr. Marshall is shocked rightly, because he has done everything to sow doubt in the arguments that Pope Benedict XVI invalidly resigned. His disinformation project has failed miserably. Thanks be to God!

But as regards Archbishop Viganò’s Hegelian critique of the Papacy since Pius XII, the numerous reports at Ordo Militaris Radio TV show that his analysis is shallow, since it ignores the involvement of the U. S. Government in undermining the Church and launching Vatican II. Those who use this kind of critique, talk about the problem but will never do anything about it. If they did, they would be at war with the White Lodges and would have to love the Church for Christ’s sake, trusting only in the power of Christ to defend them.

Furthermore, the Archbishop’s allegation that Pope Benedict only stayed in Rome at the insistence of the Conservatives in the Vatican, is completely false. The residence of Pope Benedict XVI were he stayed for the rest of his life after February of 2013 was restored by order of Pope Benedict XVI prior to his resignation, to be his permanent residence. All testify that he himself invented the title “Pope Emeritus”.

As for Dr. Marshall, he never could figure out why the Renunciation was invalid, so the rest of his speculations about Pope Benedict XVI are not, in my mind, worth much. He must first admit to the public he was wrong and accept the objective principles of Canon Law which are very Thomistic, a thing he claims also to be, though he acts more Talmudically than Thomistically.

Vatican issues decree of supression against Texas Carmel

Editor’s Note: This is another sad chapter in a case which has scandalized the Catholic world for the numerous incidents of malfeasance by the local Bishop and Pope Francis’ canonically non-existent “Dicastery for Consecrated Life” erected during his anti-pontificate.

First the mother superior was accused of a grave violation of her vow of chastity for having engaged in  “phone sex” with a priest, a violation of purity which is not included in any traditional book of morals regarding the observance of the vow of chastity or virginity, which requires an external physical act with another person or in their presence.

Second, the nuns were publicly ridiculed as violating their religious vows for their intemperate use of cannabis as a pain killer, a practice which is also not a crime in canon law, though it is an offense against right morals. Monasteries and Convents throughout the world and especially in the Andes have used herbal healing for centuries. In fact, the whole concept of a pharmacy was invented in Monasteries, since these were the only institutions which for centuries had the wherewithal to grow, collect and prepare herbal remedies in a highly ethical and consistent context.

Third, the public defamation they suffered from the local Bishop, which he uses to justify an attempt to take their property and control their internal affairs, even though he seemingly takes quite a light hand with his own priests who are involved in sexual offense.

Finally, the denial of the Sacraments to these religious women, the denial of their right to keep, take and live their vows to Jesus Christ and the irregular intervention of the Vatican declaring them “defected from the Catholic Faith” for having taken on spiritual care from the clergy of the Society of Saint Pious X, an entity which in which membership has never been characterized by any Papal Law or Act as “defecting from the Catholic Faith”.

Moreover, the attempt to suppress their monastery and declare them no longer Catholic is a most grave attack on their persons, since they have by vows to Our Lord Jesus Christ promises perpetual poverty, whereby they can only live by alms. As Saint Thomas Aquinas teaches, to publicly vilify a person who lives by alms is equivalent to murder.

I agree with Attorney Bobo, who is leading their defense, along with the president of Gonzaga University (Jesuit founded school), that these Carmelites have had their canonical and civil rights grossly offended by the local Bishop and Pope  Francis’s “Curial Administration”. Furthermore, I am of the opinion that canonically, all the actions taken against them are invalid in the sight of God, since they transgress numerous canons of the Code of Canon Law regarding proper procedures and rights of religious communities.

The correct pastoral procedure, from day one, would  have been to counsel temperance in the use of herbal remedies and forbid the use of the phone to those sisters who are misusing it, while encouraging them to walk more faithfully in their vocation by a life of solitude and penance, not to mention a more strict observance of cloister.

ITALY: Faithful file criminal complaint against Archbishop for destruction of Eucharistic Miracle

Editor’s Note: Once again, the Catholic Faithful in Italy are taking action to defend the Catholic Faith against careless clergy who fear neither God nor men. This case involved the Eucharistic Miracle of Savarna, which occurred on January 28, 2023 A. D., when after a consecrated Host was found on the floor by the Sacristan of the Church, it being placed in water to allow It to dissolve, the Host was found intact a day later, bleeding. A scientific examination requested by the Pastor, Don Nicolò Giosuè, found that true Blood was present in the water, in which the Host was found. The Archbishop, Msgr. Ghizzoni then intervened to have a second laboratory examine the miracle: which subsequently found “no evidence” of human blood. He then had the evidence of the Miracle destroyed without seeking consultation. So Attorney Francesco Minutillo of Forli has filed a criminal complaint with the local civil authorities, alleging the possible crimes of insult to the Catholic Faith and destruction of an Object of worship, against the Archbishop.

Inauguration of Restored Notre Dame: Trump yes, Pope Francis no


Editor’s Note: What we are seeing here is the perfected theatre of the White and Black Lodges of Freemasonry, with the non-Catholic Trump (Skull and Bones Lodge adept) attending, and the Catholic Pope Francis (Black Lodge, Buenas Aires), refusing. — With Trump declaring the Cathedral is better than it was before [because it has a new dung-colored satanic looking novus Order altar?] Perhaps.

The purpose of this theatre is obvious: it is all part of the CIA/US Department of Defense’s declared 1953 Doctrinal Warfare program against the Catholic Church, to make the American experiment appear to be the true salvation of the world, and to discredit Catholic authorities, which they installed to discredit the Catholic religion and Church.

ITALY: Widespread ATM, Bankcard outages disrupt Black Friday sales


Editor’s Note: It appears that the installation of new natural gas line in a small municipality in Switzerland accidentally cut one of the major data-links to Worldline, a Fintech company which handles in Italy and Europe the electronic communications for ATM Machines (called Bancomats in Italy) and most Bank Credit and Debit Cards, such as “American Express, Diners Club, Maestro, Mastercard, PayPal, Nexi, Visa. Nexi Payments” according to the report from La Stampa. Seeing that GooglePay is normally also linked to one or another of these Cards, it was also not working.

Other than La Stampa, most media outlets ignored the news, to prevent a rush of customers back to Cash payments. This disruption has caused numerous European companies to extend Black Friday sales until the problem is resolved, seeing that significant numbers of customers were prevented from taking advantage of the by-now-customary sales on the Friday after Thanksgiving (even though this day is not celebrated in Europe).

Msgr. Bux: Pope Benedict validly resigned, his letter to me proves it!

Y’a think so, Monsignor?

Breaking News & Commentary on the same by Br. Alexis Bugnolo

Recently, Archbishop Viganò brought to the attention of the whole Catholic world, a stunning claim made by Monsignor Nicola Bux, former advisor to the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith and the Cause of the Saints, that he possesses a letter from Benedict XVI affirming that the same did in fact intend to renounce the munus and ministerium of the Papacy.

Here is the excerpt of the recent letter of the Archbishop, published in English by Aldo Maria Valli, the renowned Vaticanista, who works with the Archbishop:

“During a meeting at the Renaissance Mediterraneo Hotel in Naples with Catholics from the local Cœtus Fidelium held this past November 22 [2024], Msgr. Nicola Bux mentioned an exchange of letters with “Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI,” dating back to the summer of 2014, which supposedly constitute the definitive denial of the various theories that are out there about the invalidity of Benedict’s Renunciation. The content of these letters – the first, written by Msgr. Bux on July 19, 2014 (three pages), and the second, by Benedict XVI, on August 21, 2014 (two pages) – was not released ten years ago, as would have been more than desirable. Instead, only today has their existence been barely mentioned. It so happens that I am aware of both this exchange of letters as well as their content.

Why did Msgr. Bux decide not to promptly disclose Benedict XVI’s response when Benedict was still alive and able to confirm and corroborate it, and instead to reveal only its existence, without disclosing its content, almost two years after his death? Why would he hide this authoritative and very important declaration from the Church and the world?

Evidently, therefore, the Archbishop possesses a copy of the correspondence. And to the knowledge of FromRome.info, so do many other persons who have worked in the Vatican.

The stunning claim of Msgr. Bux, I cannot find on any website or video platform, so I cannot quote what he is exactly saying or not.

The Letter of Pope Benedict XVI to Msgr. Bux, August 2014: Exceprt

But the Committee to Restore Pope Benedict XVI (@B16Restore), which has Vatican contacts has published an excerpt from the Letter of Pope Benedict XVI to Msgr. Bux, on twitter, which is as follows (I here include the image, not the tweet, lest Twitter erase the tweet):

The Letter of a Roman Pontiff is in the public domain and FromRome.info, being published in the USA, has the legal right to reproduce and translate it. I have chosen to do this as a journalist covering news of great public interest to Catholics in the USA, and for the good of the Church, and on the basis that the Msgr. Bux has already shared this letter freely with numerous persons in the hierarchy, thus forfeiting any right to privacy.

So here is my English translation of this excerpt.

Dear Don Bux,

finally I find a bit of time to reply to your writing of July 19th, left for me on the occasion of your visit to  the Monastery “Mater Ecclesiae”. The true answer to the questions, aired by you, is found in the first six lines of number 1 of your text. The rest of the text — as you yourself say — is a “non objective but only our, mental, problem”.  I would write, therefore, only a few brief observations.

The “authoritative historians” and the “other theologians” according to me are not true historians nor even theologians. The speculations proposed by them are for me absurd. To say that in my renunciation I had left “only the exercise of the ministry and not also the munus” is contrary to the clear dogmatic-canonical doctrine, cited by you in number 1. If some journalists speak “of a creeping schism” they do not merit any attention.

To point 2, second chapter on page 2 I would say, that the parallelism between a diocesan Bishop and the Bishop of Rome in reference to the question of a renunciation is well founded.  I know that Pope John Paul II in …

What is Pope Benedict XVI trying to say?

Until we have the full letter from Msgr. Nicola Bux to Pope Benedict XVI and his full letter in response, one cannot say with certainty what he is referring to.

Is the letter authentic? How is it signed, Pope Emeritus, Pope Benedict XVI, Benedict XVI? These will be clues to whether to pay it attention and how to read it. — Moreover, I join with Archbishop Viganò’s perplexity and consternation that, having received such a letter in 2014 Msgr. Bux did not disclose it to the Catholic world then or thereafter! In addition, since it was Msgr. Bux who quipped in October of 2018, during a public conference, that it would be easier to prove Benedict’s renunciation was invalid than that Pope Francis is a heretic, what in the name of decency is he up to, if he now claims there is certain evidence in this letter of the validity of the renunciation?

But on the basis of what the excerpt of the Letter cited above says, it is clearly an equivocal statement (cf. The Ratzinger Code, by Andrea Cionci, for an encyclopedic review of such statements after Feb. 11, 2013). For to say, that ‘Anyone who claims that in my renunciation I split munus and ministerium is wrong or absurd’, is to say nothing: because it can equally mean that they are wrong to say this, because I did not do that for the reason that (1) I never renounced the font of power for ministerium, in that I never renounced the munus, or (2) I never intended not to renounce the munus when I said I renounced the ministerium.

In the former case, the renunciation of ministry is not an abdication of the papacy, and Pope Benedict XVI remains the pope as of the time of writing this letter. In the second case, the renunciation of the papacy intended to be effected by the renunciation of ministerium is canonically invalid as per canon 188 and juridically invalid by natural right, for reasons of substantial error, as I explained in my Scholastic Question on the Renunciation, published 6 years ago, here and as Ann Barnhardt has explained in numerous videos and blog posts since 2016. So regardless of how you read it, objectively speaking it means that Pope Benedict XVI by this letter has given canonical proof that he is still the pope and never abdicated. If this is true, I will bet that the Letter to Msgr. Bux is signed, “(Pope) Benedict XVI”, which is the real reason he has not published it along with his recent statement.

To write this way seem strange, but remember, that in his advanced age, this letter certainly went though many hands before it arrived at Msgr. Bux’s desk. And Pope Benedict XVI understood that. So he wrote what he could write, in a way an intelligent person could understand it. In other words, it is logically equivalent to saying “The owner of the house is one”, while being held hostage in the basement by the Mafioso who took possession of the house. To read it as the affirmation of the Mafioso being the rightful owner, is possible, just as it is possible to read it as inferring the hostage is the true owner.

Moreover it is more important to remember, that in the last analysis, what a man who was validly elected pope but “renounces” says years after his renunciation, means nothing. Because the act must be juridically valid in itself, not only in the mind of its author before, during or after the act is publicized. For the canonical validity is not judged on the basis of anything secret, such as in the heart or in unpublished letters years later, but on the public contents of the juridical act, expressed in word and/or in written form.

Msgr. Bux needs to publish the whole correspondence, and stop making false canonical claims (something he has been doing since at least 2020): because no matter what he has in these letters, they have no canonical value, since an interpretation not expressed in the words of a papal abdication, even if expressed before or after (outside of any juridical act), cannot be the basis of interpreting an act of papal abdication.

As for Archbishop Viganò, his letter basically says Benedict XVI intended to deconstruct the Church, and thus his abdication is invalid. I have written on the topic of his intentions, frequently, preferring to side with the presumption of innocence and good will, for it is a dangerous thing to condemn another man on the basis of what you or I think was his intention in doing this or that.

Bux, the English translation which in U. S. copyright law belongs by right to myself.

Cardinal Mueller condemns Pope Francis’ Agenda of total Apostasy

Editor’s Note: Cardinal Mueller’s critiques of Pope Francis’ destruction of the Church are always well stated and organized and have solid Catholic reasons. However, he never descends from the level of action to the level of action. But discernment is for action; and the more you know the truth, the more you are obliged to act. Thus, the more you realize who is destroying the Church and how, the more you are obliged to get these enemies out of the Church and removed from office.

That italicized sentence explicates the present de facto amorality of Cardinal Mueller. For if we only speak of the problems and never advocate an effective solution, how are we different from someone grifting on malcontent or someone who is a fake-opposition performing a limited hang-out operation to deceive his readers or viewers? Moreover, how can we fault others for not acting, when we ourselves who have much more power and influence and dignity in the Church continually refuse to act?

The answers are obvious. But nevertheless you can quote the Cardinal’s critiques and explain with that one sentence why the Sutri Initiative should be adopted.
