Private Audience with Leo XIV for €500,000

Spain is preparing for the June visit of Pope Leo XIV and the country’s bishops have introduced a controversial fundraising model: major donors can gain exclusive access to the pope.
The Spanish Bishops’ Conference has created a five-tier donation system.
At the top, “Great Benefactors” (€500,000-€1 million) are promised a private meeting with the pope, a Vatican working session, and VIP seating at events.
“Benefactors” (€250,000-€500,000) receive similar perks, though without a private audience.
Lower tiers offer recognition, titles, or public acknowledgment.
Organizers say the goal is to reduce the burden on taxpayers, as the trip is expected to cost €15 - €30 million.
Donations are also tax-deductible, and sponsors are offered global visibility, with millions expected to attend or watch.

Scott Ritter guest on Daniel Davis deep dive.

1. The War Was Predictably Destabilizing The speaker begins by saying any competent analyst should have known that attacking Iran would disrupt global energy markets. Iran has the capability to interfere with oil flows (especially in key shipping lanes), so economic fallout was a “known known”—not a surprise. 2. Failure to Build International Support They contrast this conflict with earlier U.S. wars: 1991 Gulf War: A broad coalition was built before combat—European allies, Arab states, and NATO partners were aligned. 2003 Iraq War: Even though controversial, the U.S. at least attempted to gain NATO backing and international legitimacy. Current situation: No real diplomatic effort was made to build a coalition. Europe is refusing to participate. European economies are already strained (e.g., from Russia sanctions), and this war is worsening their situation. Conclusion: The U.S. acted unilaterally and now stands isolated. 3. No Serious War Planning The speaker argues the war was launched …ተወሳኺ

"This Is Very Un-British" | Journalist Slams School Over Muslim Prayer Claims Controversy
A Church of England primary school in Lincolnshire has become embroiled in controversy following claims that pupils were asked to take part in a Muslim prayer.
Deputy leader of Reform UK, Richard Tice, said he was contacted by a parent in his constituency, who alleged that pupils were “coerced, manipulated and pressured” into participating, despite none of the children in the class being Muslim.
According to the father, his seven-year-old daughter’s class was shown a video during a religious education lesson depicting people kneeling on prayer mats facing Mecca and reciting a prayer to Allah, after which the children were encouraged to try it themselves.
Journalist, Khadija Khan, joins Kevin O'Sullivan to discuss this.

Leo XIV "Interested" in Solving Tensions around Roman Rite - French Bishop

During the January consistory, Leo XIV told Cardinal Jean-Marc Aveline of Marseille, France, of his wish to explore avenues for resolving the tensions surrounding the Roman rite, La-croix.com reports, citing anonymous sources.
One bishop, who also wished to remain anonymous, said that Leo XIV is allegedly "extremely interested in the question and asked us to think something through".
Another bishop, who has spoken with Leo XIV about the Roman rite, said that "for the Pope, what is done in France serves as a model" for other countries.
"It is the first time I have heard so clearly that the subject must be addressed at a theological level and not just in a pastoral and emotional way," he added.
Another anonymous bishop, from the southeast, said: "Behind the attraction to beauty and the sacred, there is a whole theological debate that some do not perceive: a distant God versus a God who draws near - encompassing a whole relationship with the world, freedom of conscience and interreligious …ተወሳኺ

I disagree, it is great to have dialogue to allow the Muslims the understanding of the Vatican support for homosexuality.

Leo XIV Carries Cross Himself in Rome's Colosseum Because "Christ Still Suffers"

Speaking to journalists in Castel Gandolfo this evening, Pope Leo XIV called on world leaders to “come back to the table” and solve their problems through dialogue (video below).
"I'm told that President Trump recently said he wanted to end the war. Hopefully, he is looking for a way out. I hope he's looking for a way to reduce the violence and bombing, which would significantly help to reduce the constant increase in hatred in the Middle East and elsewhere."
Leo XIV added, "Come back to the table and engage in dialogue. Let's look for solutions to problems and ways to reduce violence, so that peace — especially at Easter — might reign in our hearts."
The Pope was also asked about his decision to personally carry the cross during the traditional Stations of the Cross at the Colosseum on Friday. "I think it will be an important sign because of what the Pope represents: a spiritual leader in today's world and a voice saying that Christ still suffers."
When asked what he expects from his …ተወሳኺ

Christ still suffers to see the total disregard of too many of the Pope's hand picked leaders with respect to the Ten Commandments. Our Lady of La Sallette suffers also.

The Colorado Court is stacked with liberal judges. They have a habit of being overturned. Their ruling that Trump could not be on the 2024 ballot in Colorado was overturned 9-0 by SCOTUS. We would no longer be recognizable had Hillary and Kamala beat Trump. Their court picks would certainly have upheld the leftists.

[Link Pending]: The Cardinals & A Council Cannot Judge A Pope. (On St. Bellarmine).
By Bro. Michael Dimond, & Bro. Peter Dimond.

CatMuse

To be clear, in the case of heresy it is God who judges it because the Catholic Faith is revealed by God. The Pope is in effect judged by God as a heretic when he rejects the faith. Any man can identify the Pope as a heretic freely without any problem in that case. The man is not judging the Pope, the Pope has already been judged by God. The man is simply expressing an existing judgement.

Marian Sanctuary in Northern Italy Denies Entry to FSSPX Pilgrimage

On March 28, a Lenten pilgrimage organized by the Priestly Fraternity of St. Pius X (FSSPX) was denied entry to the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Sorrows in Cuceglio, near Turin, Italy.
Despite being announced in advance, the church doors remained closed to the group, which included priests, religious sisters, and families who had walked several kilometers in devotion.
The pilgrims had planned no Mass or formal liturgy - only a few concluding prayers.
According to the local newspaper La Voce, the decision to close the gates to the pilgrims was made by the rector of the sanctuary, Don Luca Meinardi, and by Bishop Daniele Salera of Ivrea. The newspaper comments: "A choice that inevitably contradicts an ecclesiastical vocabulary which, in recent years, has emphasized words like welcome, inclusion, dialogue, and mercy."

Lisbon: March for Life Attacked with Molotov Cocktail

A Molotov cocktail was thrown at participants during a March for Life in Lisbon on Saturday. Fortunately, the device failed to ignite and no one was injured.
The suspect was quickly detained at the scene. According to police, the 39-year-old man has caused similar disturbances in the past.
Patriarch Rui Valério of Lisbon released a statement afterwards that violence is never the way:
"It does not build, it does not dignify, it does not serve the truth. And it becomes even more painful when it threatens the most vulnerable, especially children, who should always be a sign of hope and never exposed to fear."
