Description
Why Are Traditionalists Upset with Pope Leo XIV? In today’s episode, we cover several major developments shaking the Catholic world. John-Henry Westen is no longer with LifeSite News—his co-founder reveals what led to his departure. Meanwhile, Pope Leo XIV is making waves with a series of controversial episcopal appointments that have traditionalists sounding the alarm. Cardinal Fernández has confirmed that blessings for same-sex couples will remain in place under Pope Leo XIV, continuing a key policy from the previous pontificate. Bishop Strickland is now promoting the St. Gallen Mafia theory to explain the current crisis in the Church, and in a surprising move, one bishop has granted a general exemption from Sunday Mass attendance. We also look at a newly surfaced report about the Latin Mass—some claim it suggests that Pope Francis restricted it for questionable or even bogus reasons. I break down all of this and what it means for the Church today. Don’t miss it.
