Amen. To most of this.

Regarding the last part, Eucharistic Miracles confirm the validity of the New Mass. The issue in the NOM is not validity. It is what Theologians call "integrity", stripping away much of the other parts of the Holy Mass, other than the bare essentials necessary for validity. So the Mass will still be valid, as Indult Trad Priest Fr. Ripperger teaches, but the Mass will merit fewer graces as far as the extrinsic effects of the Mass are concerned. Fr. Ripperger explains this in detail in his article, the Merit of a Mass.

An excerpt here: "However, when we consider the rituals themselves, it is possible to arrive at which is more meritorious.

The new rite is “streamlined” in the sense that those who wrote it sought to simplify the ritual. This resulted in less pomp, so in this respect we may say the old rite is more meritorious than the new. We have mentioned in a prior article that the old rite excels the newer rituals with regard to the virtues."

The demons can replicate most of the miracles, just like the fake Marian apparitions.  Father Ripperger scares me because he thinks demons give him useful information.

God doesn't make mistakes.   Man does.
