This is why traditional Catholicism will prevail.
On July 8, we bought land in Iron Station, North Carolina. On Sunday, we took possession of it. We sanctified it with the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, entrusting it to Our Lady — Co-Redemptrix and Mediatrix of All Graces. Help us build the new Saint Anthony’s - a home for the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass for generations to come. Please pray for this work, share our story, and consider making a gift: saintanthonys.com/build/ During his sermon, Father John Bourbeau spoke these words ⤵️

We've got to break the irrational taboo that bans any discussion that Vatican II is a failed council that has only brought destruction on the Church by every measure The noun 'Ecumenical Council' doesn't suspend the function of rationality and common sense It is a profound insult to the Holy Spirit, the Third Person of the Most Holy Trinity, to pretend that Vatican II is a valid Ecumenical Council Otherwise it makes the Holy Spirit the 'puppet' of Council Fathers who were clearly fallible, incompetent or scheming heretics

..... and thus, "Dr. K" joints the zip it movement. My only response to his bizarre attack is to remind him that all the destructive appointments that Pope Leo permits, all the heterodox statements from Bishops that he ignores, all the Latin Masses that are suppressed as he averts his eyes, and all the things that Leo himself says, that are against the constant teaching of the Church, he supports. When the good doctor's own Latin Mass gets cancelled he may well come to rue this article.

If you are going to restore the rights of the TLM, as many mistakenly believe Leo will do, why would you appoint someone to this role who is famous for wearing Annibale Bugnini's episcopal ring? I rest my case.
St. Peter's Basilica has a new Archpriest Pope Leo XIV has appointed Vittorio Francesco Viola OFM, the current secretary of the Dicastery for Divine Worship, and prime enforcer of Traditionis custodes, who famously wears the episcopal ring of Annibale Bugnini, as Vicar General of Vatican City State, Archpriest of St. Peter's Basilica and President of the Fabric of St. Peter.

Are they trying to finally convince the undecided that they created a parallel church after Vatican II?
Pope Leo opens Francis' Amoris Laetitia to a meeting with the world's bishops as the Vatican says it will not be rewritten. The 2016 document opened the door for the divorced and remarried to receive Communion. Rome now appears to want this break with Church teaching locked in, not corrected.

Another diabolical deception. He says that no one is excluded from the heart of God, which is true, inferring that there are groups of persons who are somehow banned from attending Church, which is false. Jesus forgave the woman caught in adultery but, and this is what never gets mentioned, He said "go and sin no more".
Replying to @ChristopherHale
NEW: Cardinal Domenico Battaglia of Naples wrote the foreword to a new Catholic book on transgender people, writing that “no one is excluded from the heart of God.” It is the latest in sixteen months of LGBT inclusion under Leo XIV: meeting with Fr. James Martin at the Vatican, 1,200 LGBT pilgrims through the Holy Door, trans women at the pope’s Jubilee lunch. Last month, Leo named fifteen consultors to the Vatican’s religious-life office, among them advocates for LGBT Catholics and women’s ordination. substack.com/home/post/p-214…

This is the diabolical deception of Cardinal Bernardin's "seamless garment". Leo is laying out a false dichotomy that places the teachings of liberalism ahead of the constant teaching of the Church on sexual morality. Pure politics dressed up as the Faith.
Pope Leo XIV says that the Catholic Church’s teaching on sexual ethics must be less prioritized over “greater, more important issues.” “We tend to think that when the Church is talking about morality, that the only issue of morality is sexual. “And in reality, I believe there are much greater, more important issues, such as justice, equality, freedom of men and women, freedom of religion, that would all take priority before that particular issue.”

This says all that needs to be said about the insufficiency of the new mass.
LATEST — Archbishop Claudio Maniago of Catanzaro-Squillace has said at the close of Italy’s National Liturgical Week that more than six decades after the liturgical reform the Church still does not know how to celebrate the Novus Ordo. “We still don’t know how to celebrate in a way that brings out the splendour of the liturgy,” His Excellency told participants in Catania. Archbishop Maniago insisted that splendour already belongs to the liturgy and need not be manufactured: “Splendour is proper to the liturgy, it has it; we just need to bring it out.” Read my full report on @RealAdVaticanum advaticanum.com/article/ital…

This is the way the Leo pontifical rolls. Diocese rolls out LGBT friendly sex education for Catholic children, families appeal to Pope Leo, and the Vatican sends a note reaffirming the Church's negative position on such programs but does nothing; program goes ahead. lifesitenews.com/news/vatica…

Oh oh. Leo's mask is slipping again. Is that another modernist zealot under there? Time for a few more prayers in Latin to settle the traditionalist crowd down.

Trust the current regime in Rome to take the glorious Feast of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary and turn it into an opportunity for outbursts of modernist word salad and a lecture on resisting corporate consumerism while accepting the aging process. vatican.va/content/leo-xiv/e…

There is no crisis in the Church though. Having a Bishop publicly apostatize from the Catholic faith is normal. If this sort of thing was extremely rare you could argue that but we read about Bishops denying elements of the Deposit of the Faith every day. This is a crisis!

You will know them by their fruits.
SCANDAL: Pope Leo appoints pro-female ordination and pro-LGBT consultors to the Vatican’s religious life dicastery. Appointees include Sister Patricia Murray, who has pushed women’s priesthood and addressed the “pain” and “woundedness” of LGBTQ people. lifesitenews.com/news/pope-l…

Joseph Gelineau S.J, an important member of Bugnini's Consilium, (the group that designed the new mass), said in his 1976 book “To tell the truth it is a different liturgy of the Mass. This needs to be said without ambiguity: the Roman Rite as we knew it no longer exists. It has been destroyed.” At least he was honest.
