I was hoping someone else would take to the task of translating the video. I could have done it and put it in a big separate post about why the Holy Cross monastery now posing as a seminary is a bad thing for Tradition but that’s not really my motive, even though it should have been done. Bishop Thomas Aquinas performed my wedding. I was very close to him and the Brazilian resistance. I got a lot of criticism and what amounts to excommunication for supporting Bishop Rodrigo da Silva despite the Brazilian resistance, but I have very strong reasons for doing so.

I would just go on to say that there was definitely a need for a Brazilian bishop, so Bishop Williamson acted in good faith by consecrating and giving Brazil a bishop. There is a lot of story regarding Holy Cross monastery I would rather not get into, but it seems to be undermining the growth of Tradition in Brazil. Luckily, Bishop Williamson did recognize a stand up leader with a true missionary spirit at the Holy Cross monastery. Brother Miguel definitely stood out among the rest. For that reason he was sent to study in Avrille and later ordained by Bishop Williamson as Fr. Rodrigo da Silva. As fate would have it, he would cross paths in a South American airport with Bishop Dolan, who also immediately recognized this charisma and made him a bishop. Since then, Tradition in Brazil has been sustained.

While we are at it, I considered traveling some distance to know Bp. da Silva and his entourage, but he seems to be the kind that is mean to non-dogmatic Sedevacantits.

I mean, he seems to be more like Bp. Sanborn-Fr. Cekada than like the CMRI people. Am I right?

I don't know anybody from these groups, my ideas here are based mostly on what I read on these forums.

God Bless Bp. Dolan RIP, he did so much good! Glad to hear that due to Bp. Rodrigo da Silva, tradition in Brazil has been sustained! Keep up the good fight Centroamerica! Prayers are with you :pray:
If I'm not mistaken this was the bishop consecrated by Bishop Dolan just before he died, correct?

Yes. I didn't know he met Bp. Dolan in an airport in South America. Is that really true?

I don't know, but I found this that might shed some light (I haven't listened to it)?

ETA: Just listened to the beginning and it doesn't sound true.  They first contacted each other via email.

Actually, I don't hate it. I hate how SV's believe that they are better than anyone else. They act like the Elite Jews, who want world control. 
Uh...  I think you're describing yourself here, not the sedevacantists.
