I had never seen Bp. Williamson before in person.    I'm a DC native, so have seen my fair share of V.I.P.s around and about.  He has a very powerful presence, more so than those I have seen--and dramatically different to the assorted cardinals and bishops.  

Personally, I am praying for an end to in-fighting amongst trads.

Good sermon.  I especially appreciated how he renounced pride.

FWIW, going on Traditio today, I found this article, July 16, 2013 -
Our Lady of Mount Carmel, Double Major Feast, that purports to cover
the Silver Anniversary Pontifical High Mass using the following image
and followed by the caption below:



(http://www.traditio.com/comment/com1307p.jpg)

Two Pontifical High Masses Were Celebrated on the 25th Anniversary
Of Archbishop Lefebvre's Consecration of Four Traditional Bishops
300 Traditional Catholic Faithful Attended Each Mass, even from Abroad
While a Similar Anniversary Celebration at Fellay's Principal Seminary
Saw Half the Chairs Go Empty
Bishop Williamson Reports:
"The Resistance" to Fellay Is Growing "Stronger and Stronger"
[/font][/size]




Now, tell me if I'm wrong, but this looks like a picture of the interior of
St. Isidore's Church, 277 S. Watkins Road - Watkins, CO 80137, and not
the temporary oversize tent that was set up by Fr. Ronald Ringrose for
this Silver Anniversary Pontifical High Mass in Vienna, Virginia, June 29th,
2013.  Furthermore, the Resistance is not "to Fellay," as the caption
alludes, but it is rather resistance to error and resistance to any defection
away from the Traditional Catholic Faith of our Fathers.

This seems to be two more examples of how the would-be anonymous
"fathers" of Traditio get their facts mixed up, or, rather, deliberately skew
information to falsely represent their own agenda, whatever that happens
to be at the moment.  Therefore, it is something readers ought to know,
that you can't base your opinions or even your impressions on what you
see on Traditio.com, and you ought to be very cautious going there and
reading the posts in the Daily Commentary.

Another fact, that seems to be consistent as far back as the beginning
of the site is, that they use a date four days in the future at all times,
with very few exceptions.  Therefore, any post you see, such as this one
from "July 16th," would have been posted actually 1 to 4 days previously,
so it is really July 12th, 13th or 14th, but likely not 16th, and the fact that
they tie the date to the traditional Church Calendar, giving the name of the
feast day and its rank, further deceives newcomers into thinking that the
post had been made 4 days later than it really was.

For example, today, July 18th, the current latest post is July 20th, and
it's likely that a July 21st post will appear before the day is done.

Just in case Fr. Morrison (or whoever it is lately) reads this and has
second thoughts (because that has happened in the past!) I am uploading
a copy of the image here on CI, so, if the image gets changed in the future
to accurately represent the tent-Pontifical Mass that actually took place,
then we will know because the original version is right here, for all time,
or, however long CI lasts............

No, it's St. Hedwig Church in Trenton, NJ. Traditio often uses wrong or photoshopped or irrelevant photos.

You really don't need to defend Traditio, VCR.

They do a lot of damage by falsifying data.  If it had not been
for Traditio, HEBF would not have been able to deny a lot
of the accusations against him, because his minions only
needed to say, "OH, you read that on Traditio?  HAHAHAHA"

See what I mean??

ETA:  They mentioned the Mass in Vienna but got several facts
wrong, so it's a problem that they spread disinformation.  
This only hurts the Resistance!!  And that's not "nice!"

As I was saying previously, Traditio.com would get the post in for
the 21st before the day is done, and here it is.  This is still Thursday,

This daily offering of Traditio.com is unusually replete with error and
since it is intensely Resistance-related, it does all the more damage
to this common cause:



July 16, 2013 - Our Lady of Mount Carmel
Double Major Feast
Richard Williamson Celebrates Abp. Lefebvre Anniversary Mass before Two Crowds
While a Similar Fellay Celebration Saw Half of the Seats Go Empty [WRONG!]
From: The TRADITIO Fathers


Quote from: the quoted website

In his July 13, 2013, Bulletin, traditional Catholic bishop Richard Williamson, formerly the senior bishop of the Society of St. Pius X,


1 -- It's not his "Bulletin" (capital "B" means proper noun, and +W does
not call it his "Bulletin") but rather it's his Eleison Comments or EC ..

2 -- +W has not said that he is no longer SSPX, in fact, he has asserted
that he is still an SSPX bishop, but that he was illegitimately expelled ..

3 -- Nor has +W claimed to be an "independent" bishop ..

Quote
now an independent traditional Catholic bishop, reported on the Silver Jubilee celebration in the United States of Archbishop Lefebvre's June 30, 1988, consecration of four traditional Catholic bishops. Bishop Williamson celebrated two Pontifical High Masses with the assistance of twelve traditional Catholic priests from Brazil, Canada, Colombia, England, France, Mexico, and the United States. Each Mass was celebrated before 250-300 of the faithful, some of whom had come great distances, even from abroad, to attend.

These Masses were celebrated at St. Athanasius Traditional Catholic Church in Vienna, Virginia,


4 -- actually, they were celebrated in the garden of the rectory,
not in the church, which would have been too small for the crowd,
but explaining that would have put the lie to the fake picture above ..

Quote
where five leading priests, known as the "Vienna Five,"


5 -- nobody is calling them the "Vienna Five" except Traditio ..

Quote
who left the Novus Ordo "sellout" Superior-Dictator of the Neo-SSPX, Bernie Fellay, founded the SSPX of the Strict Observance (SSPX-SO)


6 -- They did not found the SSPX-SO..  that is a term dreamed
up on Traditio.com alone, and the fact that these Resistance
priests are not using "SSPX-SO" is proof that they want nothing
to do with the remote leadership of this unreliable website ..

Quote
on August 10, 2012, to return to the founding principles of the SSPX's founder, Archbishop Lefebvre. Since then almost one hundred other NSSPX priests have left Fellay's corrupted organization and either joined the SSPX-SO or decided to operate independently.


7 -- "almost 100" is a gross exaggeration..  it's probably closer to 30 ..

Quote
On June 27, 2013, Fellay and his other two Neo-SSPX bishops, Tissier de Mallerais and Galarreta, had issued a declaration that they were still ready to join the New Order sect,


8 -- that is not literally what it says but is rather a reasonable
interpretation of what it says..

Quote
if that sect admitted them, that the "door to a deal"


9 -- the SARD does not contain the words "door to a deal" and
therefore it is a lie to imply that this is quoting the SARD..

Quote
between Fellay & Co. and Newpope Francis-Bergoglio "remains open."


10 -- Nor does the SARD contain the words "remains open" so
this is a second lie on the same subject ..

Quote
Bishop Williamson reports that even if Newrome remains Modernist, Fellay will be taken in anyway, "satisfied to be just another of the Conciliar pantheon, along with the heretics, oecuмaniacs, pantheists, or whatever else is there."


11 -- Again, it was not +Williamson who "reports" this, but rather
the author of Traditio must be reading CI where he would have
seen this as material posted by a certain CI member of high repute.
These "quoted" words are his, that is, except for the word,
"oecuмaniacs," which Traditio typically spells in the older way, but
thereby brings discredit to the word's archaic spelling which is the
opposite of what a site would do if it were supporting tradition..

Quote
Bishop Williamson states that Fellay just is trying to fool clueless NSSPXers by making "the label on the outside" of his corrupted organization "look a little more like Archbishop Lefebvre."


12 -- Wrong again, Traditio.com - it was not +W who said that but
DAW who is a member of CI and not on the tow of Traditio's draw-
strings as one of its informants ..  It seems Traditio really wants to
recruit this source, though, and quotes him again and again over
the years .. pathetic!  Hey, Traditio - you'll just have to keep coming
to CI to read his posts!   HAHAHAHAHAHA

Quote
Fellay's ploy is reminiscent of Benedict-Ratzinger's "Motu" Mess of 2007, which fraudulently tried to put the "traditional" label on the Freemason presbyter Hannibal Bugnini's Half Novus Ordo Vatican II Mess of 1962 in order to fool clueless Newchurchers.


Well, I have to hand it to you here:  you got this one right..

Quote
Bishop Williamson further reports that The Resistance to Fellay is growing "stronger and stronger."


Well, that didn't last long, did it?

13 -- No, +W reports no such thing..  it's not "Resistance to Fellay,"
rather it's Resistance to error, lies about the Faith, corruption, "things
like that," as Fr. Schell used to say, bless his soul..

14 -- Furthermore, +W does not say the Resistance is growing
"stronger and stronger," rather he writes in his EC CCCXIII that
"It seems ... the Resistance is going to grow stronger and
stronger"..


Quote
A crowd of 200-300 people, who overflowed the available seating, made the pilgrimage to St. Athanasius in the sticks of Virginia, while Fellay's own celebration at Econe, Switzerland, saw half of the chairs empty.


Wrong again, Traditio!

15 -- the silver anniversary to-do at Econe reportedly had 200-300
attendees, but the priestly ordination ceremony there had half the
chairs empty, not "Fellay's own celebration at Econe"..

Quote
It is ironic that Vienna is not far from where Fellay is trying to bilk his NSSPXers into forking over hundreds of thousands of dollars to build his new "Taj Mahal" seminary, when a perfectly good one already exists in Winona, Minnesota. Given the fact that NSSPXers are leaving Fellay like rats leaving a sinking ship, Fellay won't need his Taj Mahal seminary. He'll be hard pressed to get any seminarians at Winona!


16 -- No, it seems there are plenty of young men who are eager
to attend the new seminary, unfortunately .. something should be
done about that .. but what? .. certainly not misrepresenting facts,
such that the young men won't believe ANYTHING you say,
Traditio!!! .. and there are probably two or three times as many
who are eager to enroll at the new seminary BECAUSE of Traditio's
BAD EXAMPLE of what the Resistance is all about!!

Please note:

The post on Traditio, above, that purports to refer to the Silver
Anniversary celebration in Virginia does not quote from +W's
sermons or speeches in Vienna that weekend, but rather takes
quotes from EC CCCXIII found here (http://www.cathinfo.com/catholic.php?a=topic&t=25808&min=0#p2), and one or more CI posts
by CI member laymen.  So don't be looking in the video of this
OP to see what Traditio is referring to.

However many trads do more damage to the resistance then Traditio.
On this forum there are traditional Catholics who claim they are resistance and yet support Fɾҽҽmαsσɳɾყ ( see father themann thread).   There are many who support modernism,liberalism ,socialism and other anti Catholic teachings. Also many lack Christian charity and are full of pride and arrogance.  

Yes Bishop Williamson's sermons go in one ear and out the other for many.
