Two historical events, each of which is undeniable and each of which is significant have occurred in recent days, proving that Hildebrand is the Vicar of Christ on Earth.
The first is that at the moment of Consecration of the Most Blessed Sacrament, by the Bishops of the Society of Saint Pius X, on July 1, 2026, the Lord sent clouds over the place and it began to pour rain, preventing for a long time the distribution of communion to the Faithful, present. In fact, only after the recitation of the Most Holy Rosary of the Blessed Virgin, were the laity able to receive.
The second is that Robert Prevost, who claims to be Leo XIV, while visiting Lampedusa, had his zucchetto removed from his head, by the Lord who sent a wind which took that authentic symbol of His Vicar on Earth, away from him who has no legal claim to wear it.

And:
These two events can only be explained by this: that someone else is the true vicar of Christ, and that the SSPX could have obtained papal mandate from him, to have Christ’s blessing, but failed to act honestly (Cf. the Agenda for Hildebrand’s Pontificate, here).
We will see more of this until Hildebrand is enthroned as Roman Pontiff, since the Holy Ghost will not remain silent nor let His people be deceived.
WHO IS HILDEBRAND, THE POPE ELECT?
It has been more than 6 months since the Catholics of Rome used their right, granted to them by Saint Peter the Apostle, according to the teaching of Pope Nicholas II, to elect Hildebrand, during the sedevacante which resulted from the failed, illegal election of Robert Prevost in May of last year. (For more about that see Hilebrands “Urbi et Orbi” for Christmas and the FAQ file which contains replies to all the most major questions, including who Hildebrand is, and basic facts about him).
Since that time, no one on earth has brought any canonical argument against the validity of his election. All they can do is hurl insults and innuendos against him or the former editor of FromRome.Info.
This is because, without a doubt, some of those who are attacking are paid or blackmailed agents of foreign intelligence agencies, who realize how great an existential threat to the New World Order is the possibility of a truly Catholic and legally valid Roman Pontiff, whom they did not select and who is not a brother in the Lodge as they are.
For that reason, they NEED as an absolute necessity to know who Hildebrand is, that is, to know his nationality and civil name and present location, because they actually do intend to murder him, first by public calumny and finally but shooting him dead or poisoning him.
Mindful, that our war here is not only against the principalities and powers in the heavens, as Saint Paul teaches, but also against their evil spawn, the Freemasons of our age, Br. Bugnolo advised the pope elect to not reveal publicly his identity, since that is the easiest and safest way to he can be protected without the expense of thousands of dollars in security services, body guards, and the rent of a secure isolated compound. This security measure will last until he is consecrated a Bishop. Thus, it is only a temporary measure for very practical reasons.
There are many trolls on social media, who would have you think that it is crazier to accept a Roman Pontiff whose civil name you do not know, than it is to reveal his name now. But these individuals are psychotic, that is, divorced from the reality in which we live: wherein a criminal gang of sodomites and heretics, hand selected and chosen by U.S. intelligence agencies and with the connivance of many other nations, has seized total control not only of the Vatican but of nearly every other Catholic diocese and institution, by putting into power men who are spies, intelligence agents, or blackmailed persons, so as to totally control a false narrative, that everything is O.K. in the Church, or that the only solution is destroying Her from within through heresy and schisms.
As Catholics we already know that there have been many Popes in the history of the Catholic Church, whose civil names and biographies we know nothing or very little, as to who they were before their election, not to mention afterwards. All we know are their regnal names, and even some of these are in dispute (e. g. Pope Fabian, in some sources is called “Pope Flavian”). No Catholic in their right mind has ever said, that since he does not know who these popes were, that he does not accept them as true Popes. Rather, the entire Church has held that he is the true pope, who is the first man validly elected, regardless of who he was in life or what his name is.
An example of this is Pope John II.
Every Catholic accepts him as the true pope. We know from history that he was not called, “John”, but “Ioannes”, since the Catholics of Rome in those days spoke Latin. We know from historical studies, that he reigned from the year of our Lord January 2, 533 to May 8, 535 A. D.. But John was not his name in life. He was the first to change his name and take a regnal name.
The vast majority of Roman Pontiffs since have done the same. Only in more recent centuries do we know the name of these men, before they were elected, with absolute certainty.
FromRome.Info won’t tell you the “real” name of Pope John II, though we know it. And in this we do not sin, because it is a lesson in history and common sense, as well as humility, that we have presented his case.
Finally, it is obvious that to the Bishops who will consecrate Hildebrand, he will make his name and identity known, and that to all Bishops who seriously inquire about him, they can request a meeting with him, via his Secretary of State, at SedesApostolica.Info. This security measure is in effect only for non-Bishops and Bishops who, as the persons above, want to know who he is, but refuse to accept him, because they reject all papal law as the principle of determining who is the true pope or not; finding that not having a pope, and/or, not having a Catholic pope who wants to clean up the Church, is better to their liking.
The stakes here are life and death. Anyone with common sense and a little knowledge of what is going on in the world right now, understands this. For those who want to be in juridical, hierarchical and spiritual communion with Jesus Christ, it is enough to know the true popes reignal name, Hildebrand. For, as scripture says, in Psalm 69, verses 30 to 36, according to the Latin of the Clementine Vulgate:
Laudabo nomen Dei cum cantico ; et magnificabo eum in laude ; et placebit Deo super vitulum novellum, cornua producentem et ungulas. Videant pauperes, et lætentur ; quærite Deum, et vivet anima vestra, quoniam exaudivit pauperes Dominus, et vinctos suos non despexit. Laudent illum cæli et terra ; mare, et omnia reptilia in eis. Quoniam Deus salvam faciet Sion, et ædificabuntur civitates Juda, et inhabitabunt ibi, et hæreditate acquirent eam. Et semen servorum ejus possidebit eam ; et qui diligunt nomen ejus habitabunt in ea.
Which in English, we render thus:
I will praise the Name of God with a canticle; and I will magnify Him in praise; and it shall please God more than a new calf, sprouting horns and hooves. Let the poor see and be glad! Seek God, and let your soul live! since the Lord has heard the poor, and has not despised His prisoners. Let the Heavens and Earth praise Him! the sea, and all the moving things in them. Since the Lord shall save Zion, and they shall build the cities of Judah, and shall dwel in them, and they shall acquire her as an inheritance. And the seed of His servants shall possess her; and those who have chosen to love His Name shall dwell in her.
These things were said prophetically of the Catholic Faithful of future ages who accept Jesus Christ and submit to His rule in the Church, under His true and legitimate vicars on earth.
Finally, though it is needless to say for clergy who understand Church law and have a conscience, that for those priests and deacons who need faculties, and who accept Hildebrand as the pope elect, they can contact his Secretary of State and make an application for this purpose. Presently, the Holy Father is especially asking for the help of clergy, Bishops and Priests, to serve the Faithful at Rome, so that they may have all the Sacraments of Christ in communion with Him.

Yes, it is also significant that at the 1988 Bishops consecrations as well as the 2017 SSPX Resistance Bishops consecrations, there was also heavy rain. This is discussed in this forum thread

As far as I’m concerned,….
Dear Theodore, or perhaps, I should call you Stevie O’Reilley, the CIA Agent?
I see that I have triggered you extremely, since what you have posted is simply a pure ad hominem, with no basis in law or Church teaching. You don’t like me. It would be honest and gentlemanly simply to say that.
But if you are irked that the God of Catholics is the Lord of Heaven and Earth, Whom all creatures obey, I cannot help you.
But that you can write so much and yet marshal no fact or law which objectively could censure me, shows that it is you who are dishonest and that it is I who am acting in an unblemished manner, in all things, except complying with your sense of etiquette.
So I thank you for your sanctimonious assault on my reputation. And I thank God that He has given me and all the Faithful His Friends throughout the ages the fortitude of wisdom to see that we should be confident in the truth and in all actions which comply with His teaching and the laws of His Vicars on Earth, and that we should never cower or submit to the emotional feelings and subjective outrage of men like yourself who feign the Christian faith and want to bring down the whole Church to your whims.
You see: the Catholic Faith is the true Religion revealed by the true Living God. It is not a form of etiquette, though it teaches proper etichette. You would want me to act as if what I know to be true, is false, or subjective opinion and thus really are trying to badger me into lying. Your psyop won’t work on me, because the Lord has given me Faith, and despite my many personal faults, He has given me sufficient light to see in the teaching of the Saints, the right way to live it.
Finally, because I truly love you in Christ Jesus, I remind you that you are going to be damned into a very deep pit of Hell unless you repent, since you have rejected every objective standard of truth. And if you are Stevie or any CIA agent or Freemason, all the more. May the day come soon when all their evil plots are overthrown by Christ, and the Faithful rejoice with Him in His Glorious return, as those evil men perish in eternal Hell fire, and they, His Friends, go on to eternal life, glory and adventure in God.
Be assured of my prayers in Christ, for your final repentance and conversion, for I would much prefer to have you at my side as a drinking partner in the Banquet Eternal, than see you throw your priceless soul, for which Christ shed an infinite Price, away for such a mishmash of porridge.
Br. Alexis Bugnolo
What about the Vatican II teaching—which has also crept into the SSPX—that a follower of, say, Hinduism can be saved without knowing Christ? How can I, as a Catholic, save my soul, brother, when so much is so obviously amiss? Thank you for your service in Christ; God’s blessing and best regards.
Vatican II has no authority, since authoritative discipline or teaching must emanate from a legitimate superior with the intention of imposing binding discipline and binding teaching. Both of which the entire body of Council Fathers explicitly reputed to do. Thus, any Encyclical of any previous pope has 1000000000000000000000000000000% more authority than any or all of Vatican II, when it imposes binding teaching or binding disciplinary measures.
With this in mind, remain calm and keep the ancient faith. And if you have a copy of Vatican II in your home, and it bothers you, burn it in an act of true piety.
Dear Theodore,
I am not going to pretend with you again, since I cannot not see what I have seen, namely, that you are posting from the same location as a known FBI Center dedicated to false flags and psyops against Christians and Catholics. So you can take your desktop written screeds and put them in the dust bin, because I will neither read them or publish them.
Br. Bugnolo, I think Pope John II’s years of reign may be off. The web search I made says that he reigned from 533–535 (found at The New Advent . org).
Thanks. Glad to see someone is reading carefully.
I thank God, I burned the Ida Peerdeman leaflets and handouts….
God bless you, brother. The Lord of Hosts Is Victor and Just Judge!
In explaining the current situation to people who sincerely seek Truth, I will begin by noting Jesus’ promises regarding His Church observing that the promised continuity must be present in a visible and legitimate head or else Jesus lied to us (all bright and shiny, “ear tickling” sedevacantist, pretzel-twisting, St. Bellarmine-based “logic” aside).
In such a conversation, I find that the analogy of a “place holder” for the office of Peter seems to give the people I’ve spoken with pause for thought. I then point to Pope Pius VII, who was kidnapped by Napoleon, as one such visible “place holder” and ask the questions, “Did Pius VII administer his duties while kidnapped?” The answer is usually, “No.” Then I ask, “Did he stop being the Pope?” I have yet to have one person NOT stop to pause and think. Finally, I ask, “Did Jesus lie about being with us in His visible Church for all times when He allowed Pius VII to be kidnapped?”
I suspect there are other historical demonstrations where God allowed His visible head to hold the continuity of the office while being hamstrung from administering it in all but a sacrificial and prayerful way. In fact, this analogy of “place holder” is how I myself have reconciled the whole munus/ministerium reality of Pope Benedict XVI’s declaration in February of 2013.
And now as I see the situation with Pope Elect Hildebrand, the movement from his present position of “place holder” depends entirely on the will of Bishops who claim to be in union with Jesus and His Bride and who can consecrate but choose not to do so. May God have mercy on them. And us, too.
In the meantime, in written form (found at SedesApostolica.info), our Pope Elect has given the world the way forward through his various letters, agendas and hope-filled prayers. May God bless Pope Elect Hildebrand and all who have waded out into the deep with faith in Jesus and His one, holy, catholic, and apostolic Faith still to be found indefectible, immutable, infallible and in Its fullness in His Bride.
I know this firmly beyond what I see or hear because Jesus said so.
For the record: No Bishop has said that he refuses to consecrate Hildebrand. And no Bishop has said his election was canonically invalid. No Bishop has said he is not a valid canonical candidate either.
Why the delay? Fear, ignorance and the lack of traits of character to overcome these deficiencies. Pray for the Bishops.
As everyone can see, Hildebrand is the only one who has not excommunicated anyone, called them a Schismatic or a heretic.
Instead, like a good Father, he has left his door open to all who want to contact him.
The fact that he does this while guarding his own personal security is what makes the enemies of God hate him, since they can muster no rational, legal, moral or ethical charge against him on objective grounds.
And the fact that in all of this, that no one siding with HIldebrand or Hildebrand himself, has been canonical censured, shows that they know the cause of Hildebrand is just, and fear him.
As has been said in the Letter to all the Faithful excommunicated by Leo XIV, the fact that NONE of the Cardinals or Clergy at Rome, nor any of the Religious, thousands though they be, has objected to the election of Hildebrand with any argument, should be the strongest fact for any Catholic anywhere, that if the clergy do not disapprove, why should not they give the claims of Hildebrand a reasonable hearing.
If they do that, finding no legal reason to doubt their validity, their presumption should be that he is most likely the Pope and that they owe him at least this: to share information about his and urge every Bishop do what that did, read, study, and then go and speak with him, once they accept the legal arguments for the validity of his election. None of this takes even a moral miracle, since every Bishop is obliged to do this with every Papal claimant.
So, there is no delay, because as soon as Catholics get back into the right state of mind, then they will have a Pope given to them by God. But until they do, what need do they have for one?
Our Lady at Akita said that Catholic bishops will be against the heretic bishops. There may be a cold war amongst bishops, Cardinals and clergy, praying soon The Lord will have enough and Deliver Justice.
Mr. Bugnolo,
Thank you for this article. I have a sincere theological and canonical question, since my recent research has focused on the Church’s visible constitution.
Throughout Catholic ecclesiology, theologians such as St. Robert Bellarmine describe the Church as a visible society whose authority is public, juridical, and capable of public recognition. Likewise, the Church has consistently taught that visible membership and visible authority are not matters of private opinion but of objective ecclesiastical order.
My question is this:
How can an anonymous Roman Pontiff—whose civil identity is not publicly known to the faithful—be reconciled with the Church’s own doctrine regarding the visibility and public recognizability of ecclesiastical authority?
More specifically:
* By what objective juridical principle can the faithful know to whom submission is owed?
* How is the Church’s visibility preserved if the identity of her supreme pastor is withheld from the faithful?
* What principle distinguishes this claim from any other anonymous claimant who might assert the papacy?
* Where, in Scripture, the Fathers, the great ecclesiologists, canon law, or the magisterium, is such a mode of public authority recognized as compatible with the Church’s visible constitution?
I’m not asking about extraordinary circumstances or prudential reasons for secrecy. I’m asking about the constitutional principle itself. —Louis
If the Church is a visible society governed by publicly recognizable authority, how does an undisclosed Roman Pontiff satisfy that principle?
I would sincerely appreciate your thoughts.
Dear Louis,
Thank you for your intelligent question.
All your questions are based upon a fallacy, however, namely, that Hildebrand is exercising or holding jurisdiction. While Pope Nicholas II says that the man elected according to the emergency measure which he teaches is valid forever in n. 3 of his bull, in the translation of which is found at SedesApostolica.info or here at FromRome.Info, has authority over all that pertains to the Apostolic See, the more common understanding of that affirmation pertains to the perogatives of the papal household not the jurisdiction as Roman Pontiff, which he will become once consecrated as a Bishop.
Thus, since he is not exercising or holding jurisdiction over the diocese of Rome or the universal Church, and since he before his consecration would be making decisions regarding dignities and offices in the pontifical household, it is not required that his personal information be made known to anyone outside of the pontifical household, nor is it improper to delay in revealing it.
If you go back and read his Christmas Urbi et Orbi, he has not asked or demanded submission or fealty as Roman Pontiff, though he already does hold the petrine munus and is the successor of Saint Peter, just as Saint Peter held that munus and primacy before he was constituted a Bishop by Our Lord at the Last Supper.
So to conclude: the Church is a visible society and needs superiors who are publicly known. But the Pontifical household is a private society essentially and thus is not required to publish information which would endanger the Pope elect.
Thank you for your thoughtful reply. I think we’ve narrowed the question considerably. You agree that the Church requires publicly known superiors. My remaining question is simply this: what constitutional principle allows the Church publicly to identify the holder of the Petrine office before he begins exercising jurisdiction? If he already possesses the munus, yet his identity is withheld from the Church, by what public rule is the faithful to know who the visible head actually is? My question is not about the exercise of jurisdiction, but about the public demonstrability of the office-holder himself.
Again, your first premise is false. The knowledge of his identity is not hidden from the Church, as his regnal name has been made known, some basics about his personal identity reveled (see SedesApostolica.Info/FAQ) and he has published 3 Apostolic Letters and his SoS many documents which clearly indicate not only his intentions as Roman Pontiff, but his theological training and academic preparation and familiarity with Catholic Teaching on faith and morals and Sacred Scripture.
As regards your implicit question about the liceity of concealing a personal identity with a regnal name, you have to take that up with the Lord Jesus Christ who invented this entire concept for the Petrine Office.
As to the historical fact, numerous popes in history are unknown as to their full identity, as regards, age, education, career, place of birth, lineage, citizenship etc.. and the Church has never had a problem with that. The same is true during the pre-Coronation phase of most Popes in history. And no theologian or canonist has ever moved an argument against that.
Your hang up seems, rather, that you either have no objection to his claim to be the Pope, or that you reject his claim and want information to harm him. There is no middle ground, other than idle curiousity which would only serve his enemies.
This is why true Catholics have no problem with this matter. They read SedesApostolica.info and understand that who Hildebrand is can be known by all the Bishops who want to recognize him and consecrate him. Those who do not, have no need of this information.
