Mother Miriam will join them, instead, on this upcoming Monday, November 24 at 12PM EST as part of the Thanksgiving Week Special.

Main Themes and Points

Defense of Tradition vs. Modernism: Upholds the Traditional Latin Mass (TLM) as dogmatic and unchangeable per Council of Trent; calls Novus Ordo a "concoction" leading to loss of belief in Real Presence. Condemns Vatican II reforms, synodality as "demonic," and abuses like communion in hand or altar changes.

Church Hierarchy Criticism: Accuses bishops and Pope of hypocrisy (e.g., COVID church closures while aiding immigration), covering abuse scandals (billions in payouts), downplaying Christian persecution and genocide (e.g., Nigeria's 150k+ deaths), and promoting heresy (e.g., religious pluralism, gender ideologies). Warns of "false shepherds" and calls for redirecting donations to local ministries.

Mary's Role and Veneration: Defends titles like Mediatrix of All Graces and Co-Redemptrix against recent Vatican notes; portrays Mary as Consolation in Afflictions and Sorrows, with historical miracles.

Persecution and Martyrdom: Discusses global Christian suffering (Nigeria, Gaza, Lebanon), internal Church "exile" of traditional priests, and preparation for spiritual warfare. References Jesus' Passion, martyrs, and biblical parables (e.g., foolish virgins, Lazarus). Shares personal stories of persecution in Lebanon (war, massacres, hiding in caves), and promotes his charity aiding Middle Eastern/African Christians, and urges spiritual "training" like athletes to be strong in Jesus Christ.

Broader Critiques: Touches on globalist cabal (Epstein, Mossad and various intel agencies blackmail, Israel influence via AIPAC), pro-Trump stances, USCCB corruption (e.g., funding abortion/trafficking), and calls for faith renewal through following the Commandments, reading scripture and saints’ writings, praying unceasingly, praying the Holy Rosary, and Holy Mass attendance.
