"The Big Beautiful Bill: Restoring Fr. Pavone and Defunding Planned Parenthood"

This episode centered around abortion rights, and pro-life advocacy following the Dobbs v. Jackson Supreme Court decision. Father Frank Pavone, National Director of Priests for Life, joined the conversation to reflect on legislative, religious, and media strategies for advancing the pro-life mission.

Abortion in the Post-Dobbs Era

The group highlighted the rise of chemical abortions, which now constitute over 60% of total abortions, made increasingly accessible through online means. They discussed state-level shield laws, constitutional amendments, and federal policies supporting telehealth and at-home abortion services. Father Frank emphasized the need for complete abolition of abortion, rejecting compromise or incrementalism.

Concerns were raised about AI tools like the chatbot “Charlie,” allegedly used to guide minors in bypassing state abortion laws, posing challenges for regulation and enforcement.

Media and Ministry Initiatives

Plans for a new radio show and podcast featuring Father Frank were discussed, with support from Salem Media. The program, set to broadcast across Colorado and neighboring states, will open with readings from the Liturgy of the Hours, beginning with Psalm 104 for the July 6th feast of St. Maria Goretti, a Catholic saint known for her purity and forgiveness.

Church and Pro-Life Advocacy

The episode explored tensions within the Church regarding the Latin Mass and internal Vatican disagreements. A document alleging support for the Latin Mass by bishops was reportedly denied by the Vatican but seen as credible by the group.

Father Frank recounted a recent meeting with Cardinal Parolin in Rome, discussing efforts to restore his priestly ministry and the broader spiritual battle over abortion. He warned younger activists of growing hostility and emphasized spiritual resilience.

Legislative Updates

Amendment 79 in Colorado—granting constitutional protection to abortion—was a major setback. However, Father Frank praised the House's passage of a new “pro-life bill” that includes abortion funding restrictions and newborn investment accounts. Future initiatives aim to reverse Amendment 79 through a counter-amendment campaign.

Final Reflections

The episode closed with calls for bold Church leadership, preparation for persecution, and unwavering focus on the transformative power of God’s Word. An upcoming educational forum with Bishop Strickland and Father Frank will further address pro-life strategy post-Dobbs.

Drawing parallels between the apostles’ retreat and a papal conclave, he emphasizes Jesus’ Ascension and the command to await the Spirit, urging Christians to speak truth against a “culture of death” and deception, as inspired by Pope John Paul II’s 1993 Denver speech.

The sermon also addresses the humanitarian crisis in Congo, where Madam Alman describes how Christians face persecution and hardship with faith, joy, and worship, despite over 25 million needing aid.

The Pope First Speech: Pope Leo XIV appears on the central loggia of St. Peter's Basilica after being chosen the 267th pontiff of the Roman Catholic Church, at the Vatican, Thursday, May 8, 2025.

Peace be with all of you!
Dearest brothers and sisters, this is the first greeting of the Risen Christ, the good shepherd who gave his life for God's flock.

I, too, would like this greeting of peace to enter your hearts, to reach your families, and all people, wherever they are, all of the people, all over the earth.

Peace be with you!

This is the peace of the Risen Christ, an unarmed peace and a disarming peace, humble and persevering. It comes from God, God who loves us all unconditionally. We still have in our ears that weak, but always courageous voice of Pope Francis as he blessed Rome!

The Pope who blessed Rome, gave his blessing to the world, to the entire world, that Easter morning. Allow me to follow up on that same blessing: God loves us, God loves you all, and evil will not prevail! 

We are all in the hands of God.

Therefore, without fear, united hand in hand with God and among ourselves, we move forward. We are disciples of Christ. 

Christ precedes us. The world needs his light. Humanity needs him as the bridge to allows it to be reached by God and by his love.

Help us, too, and help each other to build bridges, with dialogue, with meetings, uniting us all to be one people, always in peace. Thank you, Pope Francis! I also want to thank all my brother cardinals who have chosen me to be Peter's Successor, and to walk together with you, as a united Church always seeking peace, justice, always seeking peace, justice, always seeking to work as men and women who are faithful to Jesus Christ, without fear, to proclaim the Gospel, to be missionaries.

I am a son of Saint Augustine, an Augustinian, who said: "with you I am a Christian and for you I am a bishop". In this sense, we can all walk together towards that homeland that God has prepared for us.

To the Church of Rome, a special greeting! We must seek together how to be a missionary Church, a Church that builds bridges, dialogue, always open to receive like this square with its open arms, all, all who need our charity, our presence, dialogue and love.

And if you allow me a word, a greeting to all and especially to my beloved diocese of Chiclayo, in Peru, where a faithful people accompanied their bishop, shared their faith and gave so, so much to continue being a Church that is faithful to Jesus Christ.

To all of you, brothers and sisters of Rome, of Italy, of the whole world, we want to be a Church of the Synod, a Church that walks, a Church that always seeks peace, that always seeks charity, that always seeks to be close, especially to those who suffer.

Today is the day of the Supplication to Our Lady of Pompeii. Our Mother Mary always wants to walk with us, to be close, to help us with her intercession and her love. So, I would like to pray together with you. Let us pray together for this new mission, for the whole Church, for peace in the world and let us also ask Mary, our Mother, for this special grace.

POPE CONCLUDED WITH THE PRAYER OF THE: “Hail Mary...” 

The new Pope, Cardinal Robert Privost, was elected on May 8, 2025, taking the name Leo XIV. He made his first appearance wearing full papal regalia, including the cross of the shepherd, in contrast to his predecessor's simpler style. The election coincided with several significant feast days in the Catholic calendar, including those of Our Lady of Pompeii and St. Michael the Archangel. Carolina notes that Cardinal Prevost was not among the popular candidates initially considered for the papacy.

Speaking about Pope Leo the XIVth Universal Outlook: The speakers discussed the election of Pope Leo XIV, an American cardinal formerly known as Robert Prevost. Madame Germain, speaking from Congo, expressed satisfaction with the new Pope's universal outlook and conservative values, which align with African church expectations. The Italian media is analyzing the political implications of an American Pope in relation to the US President Donald J Trump.

The guests discussed the upcoming conclave of the College of Cardinals which will start on May 7- 2025 in the Vatican City, Rome Italy. The speakers discussed the importance of prayer for the peace of the Church and the new Pope, and the potential historical significance of electing an African Pope. The conversation ended with a prayer session led by Fr. Andre and Carolina, emphasizing the importance of faith and trust in God during this important decision-making process.

The speakers mentioned that out of 252 cardinals, only 135 are eligible to vote, and one cardinal has removed himself from voting at the request of the late Pope Francis. They also mentioned a sick cardinal who may not be able to participate. The speaker highlighted that the principle of voting is based on age, with cardinals under 80 years old being eligible to vote. They concluded by noting that the Church is aging and that the voice of the people is considered the voice of God “Vox Populi Vox Dei”.

In the capacity according to which cardinals are voting for the new pope, cardinals from around the world, including Europe, the United States, Latin America, Africa, the Middle East, China, and Asia, will gather in Rome to vote for the new Pope. However, they are not voting for the Pope, but for the Bishop of Rome who becomes by nature of his election the Pope. More so in the process of the election it is the people of Rome who will ultimately have a voice in this election through the voting cardinals who each one of them is a titular of a parish in the Diocese of Rome. Each cardinal is assigned to a specific parish in the diocese of Rome, and they will consult with the people in their parishes before entering the conclave. The conclave is a liturgical event, not an election, and the cardinals will not discuss names amongst themselves. The new Pope will be the Bishop of Rome, the Vicar of Christ, the successor of Peter, the shepherd of the Catholic Church, and the head of the Vatican.
