The craziness never seems to end.

Yes Fr. Clayton is insane and a heretic for self-proclaiming himself as the Bishop of Rome.

Here's the background on his prelate, Bishop Patrick Taylor.

Bishop Patrick Taylor was born and raised a Roman Catholic.  He became dissatisfied with the changes of Vatican II and became an Orthodox priest.  He later returned to the True Faith after being advised by an independent traditional Catholic bishop.

When he returned to the True Faith, he was already a validly ordained priest. He received episcopal ordination from Archbishop Michael Boucher, whose episcopal lineage is Old Catholic and Eastern Orthodox and recognized as valid because it was personally investigated by the late Cardinal Edouard Gagnon.

One of the co-consecrators of Bishop Taylor was Archbishop Denis Garrison, an Eastern Orthodox bishop whose lineage is recognized by the Archdiocese of New York beginning with Cardinal Francis Spellman (1965) and later by Cardinal Terrence Cooke (1967).  

Though his episcopal lineage was recognized before and after Vatican II, Bishop Taylor sought conditional episcopal ordination in 2001 from Bishop Merril Adamson.  Bishop Adamson is a Thuc-line whose lineage is from Bishop Christian Datessen, a Thuc-line bishop living in France.

Bishop Taylor's validity was recently defended by Dr. Rama Coomaraswamy, a former SSPX seminary professor and one of the original members of the Society of St. Pius V (SSPV).  

I personally talked to Bishop Taylor on the telephone.  He was consecrated with the Traditional Rite of Episcopal Consecration.  He uses an English translation of the Traditional Rite to confer Holy Orders.  The Vatican to this day has a record of him, listing him as a bishop because the Holy See has kept records of independent bishops since the 1950s.
