On the First American Pope: Where do we Stand?

Back stateside after having covered the Conclave in Rome, Michael Matt presents a measured Traditional Catholic response to the election of the new pope.

Is Pope Leo XIV a “traditionalist”? No, he’s not.

Will he denounce the revolution of Vatican II? Likely not.

So, what are Traditionalists to make of Pope Leo XIV?

Plus, recently unearthed RTV footage of the Synod on Synodality captures an interesting moment wherein the entire case of the Latin Mass was presented to the man who would become the 267^th Successor of St. Peter. What’s the takeaway?

Plus, vintage words from Robert Prevost (future Pope Leo XIV) on everything from Communism to gender ideology to the importance of Tradition and the need to repent of sin.

Also, Donald Trump breaks with Israel’s war machine and brokers a peace deal with Iran. Bibi is reportedly furious (oh well), and the ridiculous charge of antisemitism leveled against anyone who opposes Israel’s war has finally been laid to rest. . . unless, that is, you’re prepared to call President Trump an antisemite, too.

And, finally, Saturday Night Live nails it on the problem with "woke Catholics".
