I've just cancelled my premium subscription. I was waiting to hear more about the whole debacle. I believe I have heard enough. Thank you Kristine. What a mess.
Oh, I know. I'm exhausted by the entire thing. I can't watch another video on the topic. I do think you will be interested in the upcoming lawsuit. Some interesting legal questions related to nonprofit organizations may emerge. Thanks again for subscribing to Trust But Verify.
Always thought Kristine Christlieb was a superb journalist; still is. Grateful for explaining what so many of us have been wondering about. Can’t even conceive of any CM return under any circumstances; nor, would ever accept any MV role in any manner whatsoever. Best he go to the desert and remain.
How is it that almost no Catholics are aware of the Didache ?
First discovered in the late 1800s , more were uncovered by archeologists excavating the earliest Christian communities in the 1980s. .
Surprisingly , they all contain the same teachings
It IS for our time when so many people either cannot read well or have largely inclusively heavily edited Bibles.
Clear, concise and an easy quick to read, the Apostles and Disciples traveled from community to community preaching the same key bullet points that eventually were key components in the New Testament.
Read the Didache and compare it to how the Bishops and Cardinals preach and live today. Eye opening.
Thanks Ronald. Appreciate the information. I don't know about you, but I'm exhausted by the drama. I'm moving on to the New Hampshire lawsuit in which I think a number of legal questions are embedded.
I watched it. I also watched Kim Tisor's The Good Place and Christine Harrington's Eternal Life Plan videos. I believe the Vatican involvement nuance was hinted at by Anthony Stine in his video last week before all details were known. Since David Gordon has confirmed all of the behavior tactfully referred to at by the author and Christine Harrington I have cancelled my 2 year plus monthly donation at Church Militant.
I will keep them in my prayers and hope St. Michael will intercede with the Lord and get them through this mess. The timing couldn't be worse with Biden's IRS targeting Christian organizations again and MI AG Dana Nessel sure to jump all over CMif this crosses her desk.
Since the board of St Michael's Media (501c3) and Church Militant (501c4) are both digging in their heels, i.e., refusing to reform the board structure, I hope the government does get involved. The current board is running the organization like a private company. They are supposed to be working on behalf of donors and the organization's mission. They have put themselves in jeopardy of being sued for negligence.
Has anyone ever heard of 2ndvote.com? They went out of business Dec. 31st 2023 without any scandal. They were not getting any support. They had the best pro life, conservative promo's you could or would ever want. They researched and published fresh lists of companies that are not pro life or conservative. The bottom line is always profits, so stop spending your money at those places and they go away. 2ndvote.com gave us that info. and now they are gone. Too bad some of these outfits or publications can't see the value in this info. and buddy up and make this workable. Think of all the people who would go to that website or publication for that daily and practical info. Oh well.
It's sad for people to finally realize that a homosexual who was thrown out of seminary and was once looking at a career in television broadcasting , could act his way onto the wounded backs of so many Catholics. M Voris DID NOT want to capitalize on telling the truth about those who have been scandalized in the parishes across the world. Rather, he found fertile ground in which to hone his acting skills when his viewership was dropping. I took note of that after posting our agonizing experiences with one perverted pastor after another in the Catholic Byzantine diocese under so called Bishop Pitaki.
We were surprised to get a clear response from CMtv that read, "We are not interested in your experiences with the dark side of the church."
And even more surprised to watch the videos morph into capitalizing on mainly exposure of the Dark Side. The suffering was and is immense for those raised in Catholicism who witness it all first hand. Looking for answers from a homosexual actor was a mistake from the beginning.
It is so hard to comprehend how someone could lead a double life like that. By day, appearing to uphold Catholic teaching on human sexuality, and behind the scenes, continuing to engage in that precise behavior. Just very hard to understand. May God have mercy on us all, and especially, to you M. Henry. I'm sorry CMtv was so heartless to you.
CMtv was nothing to me . The heartless ones are the sodomites communists who pretend to be clerics.
Our Pastors in the mission Church we helped to build and keep up in Southampton , NJ.
Look them up.....
Fr Glenn Davidovich who made wrestling videos in the basements of the main churches.
He used young male parishioners and dressed them scantily and had them wrestle his own homosexual porn star adult male friend . When the FREE volunteer cleaning and cook rectory lady warned parishioners, he shamed her from the pulpit as a "liar and gossip".
A friend of hers wrote to me and told me "She lost the faith."
Fr Danilak , who sodomize raped several little boys in his Ocean City ,MD trailer.
he shook at the pulpit which we later learned was from his AZT that we paid for. One of his ten yr old little victims in Monmouth County ,NJ committed suicide. The mother of another wrote to me and said she knew of five other victims who also committed suicide.
Fr Koury , who denied the Real Presence during one homily, invited the parents of his own special altar server to read the Gospel and give the homily. They were an ex priest and nun who married and their son altar server was named after his Uncle Fr Tom Loya.
Bishop Pitaki came and told me off from the pulpit after i complained to him. "How dare anyone question the faith of a priest? " he railed, dressed in his idiotic crown and jewels !!!
Later, our one good priest who converted to the Orthodox , told me the parishioners in our main mother church complained that this same priest crossed dress as a woman for their Church dinner party, never paid any bills for our mission church , ( one of my fellow parishioners confirmed that she had to write the checks on her own account because the utility companies would not accept them from the priest). He also entertained his little alter boy and his friends in the rectory which also resulted in complaints from parishioners especially when they discovered he used the parish funeral account to provide for limos when his high school party buddies went to proms.
The last we saw Glenn Davidovich went to Wyoming with his porn star friend ( partner)and they joined a female run priestess parish that was LGBTQ etc, friendly and were doing puppet shows for the children........................how very sweet.
Horrifying and utterly evil. And even the "good" priests are well aware of their homosexual colleagues, but they say nothing. I think they are all complicit clergy.
For Catholics who are more traditionally minded and prefer worshipping Our Lord as with in a fine feast
( beautifully chanted music and and prayers as with the TLM or Divine Liturgy) rather than a quick
Mcdonald's Happy Meal,
Mrs Engel's intellect and talent did not need a microphone.
We searched for everything she wrote and or did on videos. CMtv has more of a place with those who are products of the post Vatican Two era or have been poorly catechized.
Having started the first Catholic Homeschool support group in NJ decades ago,
I more than understand why FOX is now advertising "Catholics Come Home" adverts.
Heretical catechisms ( i.e. Christ Among US ) became popular after Vatican Two and I remember clearly our pastor teaching us the blow by blow details of what was being decided during the Council, three times a week during Catechism class.
Fr Kozak explained how wonderful it was that seminarians were being taught that the devil is not a real entity and evil only is in the heats of man..........I was a shy 13 year old but still raised my hand to ask ,"Fr
how will the seminarians believe in God if they are being taught that Satan is not real?"
My mother told me as an adult the pastor called that night demanding to know what I was reading.
Her answer," She reads the Bible and her Latin Missal."
BTW, what soured many Catholic home schoolers was the Legion of Christ and Regnum Christi,
they had children who were abused and never reported it because the Vatican did zip.
It sounds as if you have had a heart turned toward Our Lord from your youth. Lovely testimony to your family. I'll have to look into Mrs. Engel's work.
Everyone should ! She warned us all about what was going on in the schools ,especially the so called Parochial ones. "Sex Education the Final Plague"still sold on Amazon and this
My personal favorite below having known many priests personally including bishops and a Cardinal and wondering when the rest of the Roman Catholic world would wake up is the ' Rite of Sodomy "which can be found on the same website and is a MUST READ for anyone identifying as Roman Catholic.
Mrs Engel and I had one disagreement over a priest named Fr Cipolla .She thought he was a good priest and even edited his magazine about Padre Pio. My opinion of him was polar opposite and I advised our pastor to keep him away from children after being asked to interview him as he was seeking a job at our church to teach children their Catechisms.
As an example of Randy Engel's Catholic integrity , after I researched and found the mother whose little boys he abused decades ago ( there were more which was uncovered in the PA Grand Jury Report)
I put Randy in touch with the family after which she wrote a wonderful account of what they all suffered through. (eye opening for any Catholic to see how propagandized religious people can be and how even children were treated if they dared report abuse by an authority figure) .
The article was read by the PA State Atty General rep to the Grand Jury during the investigation . I was advised that there was not a dry eye in that courtroom.
Excuse me but Voris did not call out scandals in the Church when no one else dared !
Mrs Randy Engel wrote a phenomenal well documented book entitled the "Rte of Sodomy" , long before there was a CMtv , and Fr Rueda before her.
as a one time Byzantine Catholic I contacted CMtv early on to report on our Bishop and and three sexually perverted pastors we endured. I had complete documentation , informed the Bishop and finally posted the information online . too bad EWTN did not do the same, as Mother Angelica unwittingly hosted many clerical perverts herself.
The laughable response i received from Voris and his dopey moderators was," We are NOT interested in your experiences with the dark side of the Church."
Boy did they flip the script , but alas , I never did get a chance to tell our sad story ( with all news clippings to boot including ,but not the only exception , one 10 yr old who committed suicide in NJ after a sodomite rape by one of our AIDS positive pastors. Fr Danilak found dead when the police finally got found to arresting him.
CMTV merely touched the surface while sniffing at Mrs, Engel's heels.
I'm sure you're right that others were engaged in calling out church corruption before Michael; it's just that he had a microphone and got more attention.
Thanks Christine. As a supporter of Church Militant, I appreciate your insight into what has become a very complicated story. If in fact, Church Militant is to continue the Board (or “Leadership Team”) will need to become totally transparent with its supporters. I am still waiting for some communication from them on the future vision of Church Militant post Michael Voris. It will be hard to continue supporting them without some explanation of what has happened and where they are heading.
I agree. It might be possible to turn things around, but the organization would have to embrace radical transparency as a fundamental principle. And here's the thing: wouldn't you imagine a news outlet that investigates corruption would WANT to have that kind of policy? Thanks for following Trust But Verify.

Thank you Kristine for the compliment to my family above but all glory and honor goes to
God the Word.
Something to think about for anyone who believes that we should not talk about anyone involved in committing acts of sexual perversions.
Read : Ephesians 5:9-19 (Epistle)
nota bene .........especially these passages.
".....And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather expose them.
For it is shameful even to speak of those things which are done by them in secret.
But all things that are exposed are made manifest by the light, for whatever makes manifest is light."
I'm delighted to have someone with your knowledge, and love, in my audience.
