In this episode of The Remnant Underground, Michael Matt takes a look at the Holy Week news. As Catholics in Lebanon open their churches to Muslims fleeing Israeli missiles, Ephraim – the last fully Christian village in the Holy Land – comes under brutal attack.
Just when you thought it was over, Pope Leo calls on French bishops to find a solution for Latin Mass Catholics. But what does it mean, and what does it have to do with the upcoming SSPX episcopal consecrations?
A disturbing new study shows that in 2026, 15,000 Christian churches will close in the United States alone. This includes many Catholic churches, as well. So, wouldn’t now be a good time for the Vatican to scrap Traditionis Custodes?
Plus, photos of Father Robert Prevost show the future pontiff taking part in a Pachamama ceremony thirty years ago, just seven years after Pope John Paul had spoken approvingly of Pachamama down in Bolivia. Now, what?
Finally, in a new interview Bishop Athanasius Schneider speaks out on the SSPX consecrations, obedience, and the state of emergency in the Catholic Church – is it schism, or is it something else?

"This interview of His Excellency Bishop Athanasius Schneider on the question of Archbishop Lefebvre is probably the most courageous interview by any non-SSPX priest or bishop in thirty years If you're tired of the tribalism, and you want the truth – watch this interview." - Michael J. Matt
Today, March 25, 2026 -- Feast of the Annunciation – marks the 35th Anniversary of the death of His Excellency Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre. Michael Matt uses this occasion to interview His Excellency Bishop Athanasius Schneider -- an official Vatican visitor to the Society of St. Pius X (SSPX) the largest fraternity of Latin Mass priests in the world. In this interview, Bishop Schneider discuses motive and intent behind Archbishop Lefebvre's 1988 episcopal consecrations without papal mandate, and His Excellency compares that event to the upcoming SSPX consecrations without papal mandate, to take place on July 1, 2026.
Bishop Schneider recently came under fire for suggesting that any Vatican excommunications of the SSPX that result as penalty for these consecrations would, in fact, be invalid. Rather than backing down on that contention, Bishop Schneider doubles down, not only by defending the legacy of Archbishop Lefebvre but also by thanking God for Archbishop Lefebvre’s historic stand that Bishop Schneider argues will result in the Catholic Church of the future canonizing Archbishop Lefebvre as a "great confessor bishop in difficult times who loved the Church enough to be persecuted for her."
Keeping in mind that Bishop Schneider is a diocesan bishop --- and thus has everything to lose by speaking out on this -- let us pray that other bishops and priests will listen to his words and resolve to help Bishop Schneider unite the clans with a better understanding of this most controversial issue. This is not first and foremost about the SSPX per se. This is about unprecedented Revolution in the Church and the Catholic response. God bless and Mary keep Bishop Schneider for his Catholic courage in speaking out in defense of Truth regardless of the fallout for him personally.
Jerusalem Bishops Warn: ‘Christians Are Under Attack’ — Holy Sepulcher Closed for Holy Week
The Holy City of Jerusalem, under fire, and for the first time ever, the Church of the Holy Sepulcher is closed for Holy Week.
Bibi Netanyahu is accused of blaspheming Jesus Christ, and Jerusalem’s Bishop William Shomali warns of increased attacks on Christians in the Holy Land.
As Christianity becomes the most persecuted religion in the world, Bishop Alexander Sample issues a Passiontide warning against antisemitism and violence against Jews.
Meanwhile, the Latin Patriarch Cardinal Pizzaballa calls on what is left of the persecuted Christians in the Holy Land not to flee but to stay and witness to their Christian Faith under attack.
And finally, an urgent appeal for Our Lady of Nazareth to intercede on behalf of the vanishing Christian community in the birthplace of Jesus Christ.

In this week’s Underground, Michael Matt takes a hard look at diabolical disorientation and the rise of Antichrist in various forms. From the serpent’s temptation to Mother Eve in the Garden, to his temptation of Jesus Christ in the desert, to Christian Zionism heresy– what we’re seeing is the rise of ancient demonic religion to replace to True Religion of Jesus Christ.
Pope St. Pius X tried to warn us of Modernism’s war on religion, but we didn’t listen. So, after a centuries-long attack on the Catholic confessional state, a bizarre new confessional state is here with Bibi Netanyahu playing John the Baptist for a new messiah, Pastor Paula serving as chief exorcist, Pete Hegseth’s pastor calling for a ban on Eucharistic processions, and Peter Theil summoning the AI antichrist.
No wonder orthodox Jews and Traditional Catholics alike are condemning the heresy of Zionism.
By the way, with a new toxic darkness covering the earth, is anybody seriously worried about the canonical status of the Society of Saint Pius X? If Armageddon does not constitute a “state of emergency,” what does?
Tonight, it’s all about old religion for a new messiah – so pass the ammunition and let’s rapture, Bibi.

President Trump officially denounces Tucker Carlson, as yet another Neocon war throws MAGA into a civil war.
So, Lindsey Graham – Is Bibi worth it? But wait! This war is not fueled by politics.
This war fever is elevated by religion – just ask Senator Ted Cruisemissile, Rockin’ Mike Huckabee, and Rappin’ Pastor Paula. (The clips in this section are NOT SNL spoofs.)
Meanwhile, Trump fires Kristi Noem as head of DHS after Republican senators call out Operation Metro Surge in Minneapolis. Michael explains why he agrees with the Republican senators now and back when people were getting shot in Minneapolis. In this Underground, Michael features Orthodox Jews, Charlie Kirk, and Traditional Catholics who, with one voice, are calling out warmongering Zionists who are blowing up the Holy Land to make room for the Manmade Messiah.
