Catholic Media Critique by Br. Alexis Bugnolo
As a chronicler of events in the Church and in Catholic Media, I have published a series of articles, and with my colleague AJ Baalman, several videos, in which I have discussed the strange laypersons who populate Catholic Social Media discussions, their identities, positions, errors, and quirks.
So, tonight, we have arrived at a momentous point, where Ann Barnhardt, arbitrated for liability for fraud, constructive fraud, etc., to the tune of $100,000 USD in 2009, and living somewhere between Florence, Italy, and Denver, Colorado, has revealed that Chris Jackson is not Chris Jackson — as AJ and I have opined since the beginning of summer. For, she says in the post above that that is a “pen name”.
That means, for nearly 10 years, Catholic publications have deceived and defrauded their readers by publishing articles under a false name, while making it appear to be a true name, using even a photograph often of a journalist from the 1940’s. — This revelation raises serious questions about the ethics under which both The Remnant and One Peter Five have been run for 10 years** : questions that should not be dismissed or ignored if the integrity and reputation of all Catholic independent media is to be guarded.
Evidently, it was the repeated calls by AJ and myself, this summer, which sparked even the curiosity of Ann, who was recently interviewed by “Chris Jackson”‘s colleague, Stephen Kokx, lately of LifeSite News — but dismissed by the Board of Directors, it seems, under dubious circumstances.
I write all this because I believe Catholics have the right to know who is feeding them “the news” and what their personal histories are.
I have long supposed that “Chris Jackson” was not a real name, because the meaning of that name is, “the anointed of Jakob”, which has obvious Sabbatean/Jewish indications in that it implies that the Messiah is the Anointed of someone other than David. This entity is the founder of the “Neo-Sedevacantists“, and the website, Catholics4Trump.com. Their motto is, “Recognize and Withdraw”, which is basically a high-Anglican viewpoint. AJ and I think it is highly likely that C.K. is a MI6 operation to corral Catholics under Trump but separate from Rome, as Trump signaled with his picture of himself as Pope, early this year.
Ann Barnhardt is a self-described convert to the Catholic Faith, and former fornicator who lived in sin with a man for 10 years, according to her testimonies at her blog, “Judica me, Deus” (‘Judge me, o God!” — I kid you not), HERE. She became an international sensation, after leaving Cattle Future Trading, when she burned a Koran live on YouTube. Her former employer was a Jew, trading in futures on the Chicago Exchange, and her own expertise in Cattle Futures was cited by Bloomberg. I have written repeatedly about the thesis which her clear and rational arguments first clarified for the entire Church, the invalidity of the renunciation of the Papacy by Pope Benedict. See HERE. For that she deserves unabashed credit.

And now you might understand why these folk consider me a faker and deceiver and a snake, for taking permanent vows to observe the Rule of Saint Francis, following Christ in poverty, chastity, and obedience, in consecration to the Immaculate Virgin, giving all my wealth to the poor, forsaking marriage, career, even family, nation, and friends. — I am not a Saint, but my name really is what I claim it to be, and I have never been fired by anyone at anytime, let alone found liable in a court of arbitration for fraud, while I am risking my entire reputation in defending Pope Benedict XVI’s dignity as Roman Pontiff and militating at Rome against the invalid conclaves of 2013 and 2015, not because I want to, but because Catholics have a right to know the truth and to reject antipopes, and I find it intolerable that no one is telling them the truth, nor taking real action to defend them from such fraudsters.

The Book on the Trinity, every faithful Catholic priest would love as his next present
This is Br. Bugnolo's English Translation, of Saint Bonaventure's encylopedic book of theology on the Trinity: With this book, your priest will always have something intelligent and awesomely inspiring to preach to you about
God the Father, God the Son & God the Holy Spirit!

There was a time when LifeSiteNews and Ann Barnhardt were seemingly reliable sources of Catholic news and commentary. I only hear about them now at FromRome.info.
Counting down the last days of the 90 day novena. St. Hildebrand, pray for us.
Chris Jackson is a prolific writer, very traditional, but there comes a point where you want to know about the person. I wish he would reveal his real identity. Is he a priest, is it a team of writers? Inquiring minds want to know!
He-she-it appears to be a MI5 operative, living in Wales, and feigning to be a Roman Catholic, though I think he-she-it is an Anglican.
Welsh connection, maybe, but I’m not sure how you determined that the writer is in Wales.
He or she uses American spelling, not British, and his or her focus is far more on American bishops than British bishops.
This was a helpful article I first read around the time that Chris Jackson started posting the Hiraeth in Exile Substack:
https://www.bbc.co.uk/travel/article/20210214-the-welsh-word-you-cant-translate
It is possible that Chris Jackson searched for a single word that encapsulated the sense of longing for something left behind and found hiraeth.
As a British Catholic Jackson, with some knowledge of my own family tree, thanks to hard work over many decades by certain close relatives – including one whose name could be abbreviated as Chris Jackson but never was – I find your statement that this name has “obvious Sabbatean/Jewish indications” to be novel and quite ridiculous, frankly.
There are several reasons why I believe that Chris is British, and the first is the use of the rare Welsh word, which you cite, the scond is that the domain name mentioned in the article is parked in London, UK, which as far as I know would not be an easy thing to do for a U.S. resident or citizen. As for the difference between British English and American English, I will cede expertise to you, because even when Brits write online, I do not notice any differences myself. As for my analysis of Chris’ name, you must understand that I advance it on the supposition that it was not a real name but a pseudonym, and I never intended to signify by that anything regarding the 10s of thousands who really bear that surname, since it has nothing to do with them. But, yes, “Jackson” does mean “son of Jack” and “Jack” is for “Jacob”. Though, I do concede it was the habit of Christians before the 12th century to call Saint James, Saint Jacob, a thing seen in old Italian names which instead of Giaccomo use of Giaccobe.
For comparison, if anyone was using my own surname as a psueudonym, I would suppose he intends to signify a beehive or wooden bucket used to gather fruit, since that is the meaning of the the modern word in Piedmontese, rather than what my surname actually means, which is from Greek through the Venetian for “good passage”.
Thanks for share it.. Brother… Chris Jackson certainly makes compelling arguments and makes many noteworthy points, but he unconditionally supports Trump, JD Vance, and the current Republican Party. He also fails to mention that they (Trump, Vance, and the current Republican Party) fail to properly support all sensible countries that strongly oppose LGBTQ+ people and the promotion of indiscriminate abortion, especially Christian African countries (Uganda, Ghana, Nigeria, and Burkina Faso—both of which are predominantly Muslim but have significant Christian communities—Cameroon, Kenya, Tanzania, and others). And he remains utterly silent on how Trump, Vance, and current Republicans turn a blind eye to the persecution and oppression faced by Christian communities in Israel, Palestine, Lebanon, Syria, and Armenia at the hands of wrong Zionists… so disgusting…
It’s truly disheartening that not only that person, but far too many orthodox Catholic and Christian people are unconditionally praise and support Trump, Vance, and current Republicans. We have absolutely no need for human heroes or human saviors… . We must flee to false cultism… It is a very dangerous and wrong path… And then… Until the moment our Lord Jesus Christ allows, whether it is now or tomorrow, we must fight against all false ideologies and defend Orthodox teachings and the true truth!! ! May the our Lord Sacred Heart of Jesus always grant you, your family and all your loved ones infinite graces….Holy Mary, all Angels and Saints.. pray for us… Amen.. take care.. have a great day… preparing about huge perseution!!!! Although there may be slight differences in opinion, I am always learning from your valuable insights and wish to offer my support, however small it may be…
편지 감사합니다. 제가 콘클라베에 대해 쓴 글을 귀국의 성직자들, 특히 베르골리오의 이단에 가장 강하게 반대했던 성직자들과 공유해 주십시오. 귀국의 성직자들은 교회의 규칙을 따르는 것으로 유명하므로, 불법적으로 선출된 이단자보다는 합법적으로 선출된 진정한 교황을 원하는 사람들이 많을 것입니다. 하느님의 축복이 함께하기를!
