Identified a Cuban colonel killed in Venezuela: he was part of Maduro's security detail

One of the 32 Cuban military personnel killed during the U.S. military operation in Venezuela, which culminated in the capture of Nicolás Maduro on January 3, has been identified.
It is about Colonel Humberto Alfonso Roca, 67 years old, who according to social media posts was part of the senior command of Maduro's Security Device, serving as one of the key leaders of the personal protection scheme for the Chavista leader.
Images and references shared by the reporter and activist Mag Jorge Castro and other users on
social media indicate that Roca was not only assigned to the direct protection of Maduro, but he was also present at high-profile events, even escorting personalities such as Pope Francis or former U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry during their visits to Cuba in 2015.

With over three decades of service in the Personal Security Directorate of the Ministry of the Interior (MININT), the colonel also formed part of the so-called first ring of security for Fidel …

Local Cuban media and pro-government sources claim that Colonel Humberto Alfonso Roca was among the Cuban personnel killed during the recent U.S. operation in Venezuela. These sources also allege he previously served in a security role during Pope Francis’s 2013 visit.

Trotz Hausdurchsuchungen und politischer Justiz gibt es in Deutschland derzeit noch Meinungsfreiheit.

Meinungsfreiheit schützen – Hubigs Maulkorb-Gesetz verhindern

CitizenGO Deutschland hat diese Petition gestartet an Bundesministerin Stefanie Hubig - 2026/01/05
Zum Start ins neue Jahr plant die Bundesregierung einen massiven Eingriff in die Meinungsfreiheit und den fairen demokratischen Wettbewerb. Justizministerin Stefanie Hubig will den Paragrafen 130 StGB (Volksverhetzung) erneut verschärfen.
Der Entwurf trägt den Namen „Stärkung des strafrechtlichen Schutzes des Gemeinwesens“. Vordergründig geht es darum, Polizisten, Sanitäter und Ärzte besser vor Gewalt zu schützen – ein Ziel, dem jeder Bürger zustimmen kann.
Doch unter diesem moralischen Schutzschild wird im Verborgenen eine drastische Verschärfung der Volksverhetzung eingeführt.
Das neue Gesetz sieht vor, den Strafrahmen für Volksverhetzung flächendeckend auf bis zu fünf Jahre anzuheben.
Die weitaus gefährlichere Neuerung ist jedoch der geplante Entzug des passiven Wahlrechts:
Bereits bei einer Verurteilung zu einer Haftstrafe ab sechs Monaten soll es Richtern künftig möglich sein …Mehr

Maduro’s capture wasn't about oil

The image of Nicolás Maduro in US custody has inevitably resurrected the ghosts of foreign policy past. For the reflexively cynical observer, the narrative writes itself: a Republican White House, a Latin American strongman, and the world’s largest proven oil reserves. As with Iraq in 2003, the slogan of American imperialism and its ‘blood for oil’ foreign policy circulated on social media before the dust had even settled over Caracas. ‘The overnight strikes on Venezuela,’ declared the Guardian, and Trump’s neo-imperial ‘declaration that the US would run the country and sell its oil, have driven another truck through international law and global norms’. This is a comfortable, nostalgic critique, harking back to the heady days of 2003. It is also dangerously wrong.

Die Behauptung, die USA seien auf dieses Öl nicht angewiesen, ist realitätsfern. Die Vereinigten Staaten verfügen über schätzungsweise 35 Milliarden Barrel Schweröl, dessen Förderung technisch aufwendig ist. Bei einem jährlichen Verbrauch von rund 7,3 Milliarden Barrel wäre dieser gesamte Bestand rechnerisch bereits nach etwa fünf Jahren aufgebraucht. Im Vergleich dazu besitzt Venezuela mit ungefähr 300 Milliarden Barrel ein um ein Vielfaches größeres Ölreservoir.

EXPLOSIVE: Bishop Hicks’ Vicar General Reportedly Attends Chancellor’s Gay ‘Wedding’

Introduction
In December, we reported that Bishop Hicks’ diocesan chancellor, Robert Salvato,
was ‘married’ to another man. Salvato was appointed Chancellor by Hicks in 2021. As Chancellor, Salvato was responsible for advising Hicks on issues related to canon law and recording ecclesiastical acts, decrees and dispensations issued by the bishop.
As if the diocesan Chancellor getting ‘married’ to his boyfriend was not enough of a scandal, we now have reports that Fr. Richard Smith, the Vicar General for the diocese of Joliet, attended the ‘ceremony.’ An eyewitness has told us that Smith was definitely in attendance. Additionally, two other sources positively identified Smith as the man featured in the above photo from the ‘wedding’ (additional photos of the event available here). We contacted Fr. Smith on December 28, 2025 asking him to comment on these allegations but have not received a response.
This is an especially explosive allegation because, as Vicar General, Smith is …

The young “trans woman” who was just arrested for trying to break into the home of US Vice President J.D.

The Russians and Chinese know how to get along with others. They do not take. It's called trading. They buy what each has for their needs. America takes and takes and takes. And they bomb and kill for it. Criminals all of them. From trump down. Every last one of them. This person needs to learn a bit about that sort of things. You don't see Russia or China bombing anyone for oil or their rare earths and minerals etc. They bargain and they trade with each other. However, there are some people who believe Russia and China shouldn't be allowed to work with others. They rather see them destroyed. Jealously would do that to a person I guess.

Pope Leo XIV commented on the situation in the United States and Venezuela, saying that the Venezuelan people must be prioritized: "It is with deep concern that I am following the developments in Venezuela. The well-being of the Venezuelan people must prevail over all other considerations. This must lead to overcoming violence and pursuing paths of justice and peace. This will guarantee the country's sovereignty, ensure the rule of law enshrined in its constitution, respect the human and civil rights of each and every person, and encourage cooperation, stability, and harmony. Special attention must be given to the poorest who are suffering because of the difficult economic situation. I pray for all this, and I invite you to pray as well, entrusting our prayers to the intercession of Our Lady of Coromoto and Saints José Gregorio Hernández and Carmen Rendiles."

Lev XIV. vyzýva na rešpektovanie suverenity Venezuely: Pápež Lev XIV. dnes pri modlitbe Anjel Pána hovoril o zajatí prezidenta Nicolása Madura americkými silami. Lev XIV. sleduje udalosti "s veľkým znepokojením". Vyzval, aby dobro venezuelského ľudu zvíťazilo nad všetkým ostatným, a vyzval na ukončenie násilia a nastúpenie cesty spravodlivosti a mieru, ktorá by chránila národnú suverenitu, právny štát a ľudské a občianske práva všetkých.

SEEK 2026 in Texas opens with rock concert by a priest, Mass

Jan 2, 2026 / 19:25 pm
A raucous rock concert by a priest, a special video message from Pope Leo XIV, and prayers for the repose of the soul of the 5-year-old son of a Catholic social media influencer were all part of the opening night of SEEK 2026 in Fort Worth, Texas.
Some 26,000 attendees have gathered through Jan. 5 in Columbus, Ohio; Denver; and Fort Worth for the SEEK 2026 conference organized by
FOCUS.
More than 4,500 conference attendees participated in the opening Mass in Fort Worth on the solemnity of Mary, Mother of God, concelebrated by Bishop Michael Sis of the Diocese of San Angelo, Texas, along with three of his brother bishops, including Bishop Michael Olson of the Diocese of Fort Worth.
Dozens of priests also attended the Mass and helped distribute Communion to the thousands of attendees.
In his homily, in which he encouraged the thousands of young people to go away from the conference praising God for what they “have heard and seen here, like the shepherds of Bethlehem …

It seems that this conference and it's sponsoring organization is mimicking the evangelical Protestant model of Campus Crusade for Christ started by Billy Graham which was very popular & successful in the 1980s. It emphasizes "youth culture" to draw young adults to make a commitment to Jesus, but often the "high" wears off when the youth realize that their local parish church is nothing like the "worship services" of a high-energy, celebrity centered event.

Die USA haben mit Angriffen auf Venezuela begonnen. Über Caracas sind CH-47 Chinook Transporthelikopter im Einsatz. Es gibt Gerüchte wonach US Kommando Truppen am Boden operieren. Wann wohl die Empörung von NATO und EU über diesen Angriff folgt?!
