Leo XIV Promotes Argentinian Bishop Continuing the "Bergoglian Line"

On 2 February, Pope Leo XIV appointed Monsignor Luis Darío Martín as the new Bishop of Santa Rosa, Argentina. He had served as auxiliary bishop in the same diocese.
This appointment continues the disastrous trend of Argentine episcopal appointments of the Francis' era.
The Diocese of Santa Rosa covers the province of La Pampa and is a suffragan of the Archdiocese of Bahía Blanca. It comprises around 25 parishes, 180,000 Catholics and 30 priests.
Biography and pastoral path
Luis Darío Martín was born on 4 March 1961 in General Pico, within the Diocese of Santa Rosa. However, he left this his conservative native diocese to get his priestly formation at the Buenos Aires Seminary. He was ordained a priest for the Archdiocese of Buenos Aires on 17 March 1990.
Archbishop Bergoglio of Buenos Aires advanced his career.
In Santa Rosa, Bishop Reinaldo Fidel Brédice (+2018) preserved the Catholic faith and discipline throughout his episcopate from 1992 to 2008. When he retired, seven seminarians …Okunengi

Profile
Raised in a pious family; one brother became a priest, and was later curator for Theophane’s writings, and another was the bishop of Poitiers, France. Studied at the College of Doue-la-Fontaine, Montmorillon, Poitiers, and the Paris Seminary for Foreign Missions. Ordained on 5 June 1852. Missionary to southeast Asia, leaving on 19 September 1852. Worked fifteen months at Hong Kong, then transferred to West Tonkin (in modern Vietnam).
Christians in the area were being persecuted by order of the ruler Minh-Menh. Just before Theophan’s arrival, new antiChristian orders had forced priests and bishops to go into hiding in forests and caves. Father Vénard, whose health had never been good, suffered terribly, ministering to his flock by night and, when he could find a secure location, by day for nearly four years.…Okunengi

Epstein Correspondence Mentions Vatican Bank And Benedict's Resignation

The recent release of emails and documents linked to Jeffrey Epstein by the U.S. Department of Justice includes speculation about the Vatican Bank IOR and Pope Benedict XVI’s resignation.
In a February 21, 2013 email to economist Larry Summers, Epstein suggested in his distorted view that the most significant change in the Vatican was not Benedict XVI’s resignation, but a leadership shift at the IOR. He claimed the Vatican’s sovereign status exempted the bank from Italian and European Union transparency rules.
The email referred to the removal of IOR president Ettore Gotti Tedeschi in May 2012 amid Italian investigations into alleged financial misconduct. Epstein wrote that 47 dossiers were found at Tedeschi’s home and that intercepted calls showed he feared for his safety due to his knowledge of Vatican financial matters. Epstein wrote that by late 2012, Tedeschi was cooperating with Italian authorities.
Epstein also noted that German lawyer Ernst von Freyberg was appointed president …Okunengi

From memory-
---
1. Podesta emails revealed by wiki leaks discussed the "Catholic spring" which was basically that the neutering of the Catholic Church had already been accomplished?
---
2. Cardinal Pell was placed in charge of investigating the Vatican bank, and was falsely accused, he had to stand trial and found not guilty, and then his death was surrounded by unsolved anomalies?
---
3. Pope Benedict appointed a small group to investigate the "lavender lobby" in the Catholic Church who handed him a completed 300 page report which has gone missing as soon as Bergoglio entered the picture with his stage name Pope Francis ?

Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Luke 2,22-40.
When the days were completed for their purification according to the law of Moses, Mary and Joseph took Jesus up to Jerusalem to present him to the Lord,
just as it is written in the law of the Lord, "Every male that opens the womb shall be consecrated to the Lord,"
and to offer the sacrifice of "a pair of turtledoves or two young pigeons," in accordance with the dictate in the law of the Lord.
Now there was a man in Jerusalem whose name was Simeon. This man was righteous and devout, awaiting the consolation of Israel, and the holy Spirit was upon him.
It had been revealed to him by the holy Spirit that he should not see death before he had seen the Messiah of the Lord.
He came in the Spirit into the temple; and when the parents brought in the child Jesus to perform the custom of the law in regard to him,
he took him into his arms and blessed God, saying:
Now, Master, you may let your servant …

Epstein, Norway, and Davos:
The emails that tie biotechnology to global power These are not far fetched rumours anymore, it’s documented through the latest release of the Epstein-files: emails showing direct, personal correspondence between Jeffrey Epstein and key players in Norwegian and global elite networks. The timing aligns precisely with the shift from ideas to implementation in biotechnology, genetics, and new forms of global governance.
In November 2011, Epstein writes to his close associate Boris Nikolic: “did you tell anyone about our mette conversation. Marco etc. ygl people?” In the same thread, Nikolic reports he has just finished a full-day DARPA meeting: “Just done with DARPA mtg – since 8am.” This is not casual chit-chat. It is an explicit connection between the conversations about “Mette”, the Young Global Leaders (YGL) network a the U.S. military’s most advanced research agency DARPA.

On January 30, 2026, an
ecumenical prayer service took place at Holy Trinity Cathedral in New York, within the US Archdiocese of the Patriarchate of Constantinople, with representatives of various Christian denominations – including an openly lesbian “woman bishop” and a “priest” who promotes gender theory. The event was held as part of the 58th annual Week of Prayer for Christian Unity, organized by the World Council of Churches.
Celebrants of the prayer service included the Right Reverend Bishop Peter Eaton (Episcopal Church), His Eminence Cardinal Timothy Dolan, Apostolic Administrator of New York (Roman Catholic Church), His Eminence Archbishop Daniel of Pamphilon (Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the USA), and representatives of the Armenian Apostolic Church – Mesrop Parsamyan, Anoushavan Tanielian, and Vicken Aykazian.

Andy The Gabby Cabby @gabby_cabby Are our historic rights being quietly eroded? For centuries, the English constitution was built to limit power and protect liberty. Today, many people feel power is moving the other way. Laws pile up. Regulations grow. Accountability feels distant. And yet most people were never taught where their rights actually come from. I’ve just released a video breaking this down in plain English — how our constitutional foundations worked, what changed over time, and why some believe this matters now more than ever. This isn’t about left vs right. It’s about power vs the people. Watch it, then decide for yourself: If you think people should understand this, repost it. If you disagree, tell me why. Open debate beats silent acceptance every time.

Effeminate Influencer Leaves the Priesthood

The Archdiocese of Milan has confirmed that Alberto Ravagnani, aged 32, has left active priestly ministry, reports IlMessaggero.it on February 1.
His social media profile portrays him as a self-centred individual that is more reminiscent of nightclub culture than the life of a priest.
In a note signed by the vicar general, Franco Agnesi, the archdiocese states that Ravagnani — who should never have been ordained — is no longer serving as parish vicar or as a collaborator in diocesan youth ministry.
With more than half a million followers on Instagram and YouTube, Ravagnani developed a pastoral approach centred on reels, narrative hooks and an informal, direct tone.
The timing is noteworthy. Ravagnani announced his decision to abandon the priesthood while promoting his new book, La Scelta (The Choice). In it, he recounts his journey from seminary life towards a 'non-conventional' idea of priesthood. This includes abandoning clerical dress and using digital media for self-portraiture.
