He won’t stop. Trump just posted on Truth Social: “Will someone please tell Pope Leo that Iran has killed at least 42,000 innocent, completely unarmed, protesters in the last two months, and that for Iran to have a Nuclear Bomb is absolutely unacceptable. Thank you for your attention to this matter. AMERICA IS BACK!!!”

This is the third time in 48 hours that the US president has attacked the spiritual leader of 1.4 billion Catholics. First he called him “WEAK” and “terrible for Foreign Policy.” Then he posted an AI image of himself as Jesus Christ that he had to delete. Then he said “if I wasn’t in the White House, Leo wouldn’t be in the Vatican.” And now this.

Meanwhile, Pope Leo XIV is in Algeria on an 11-day tour of four African countries, preaching peace, visiting a mosque and celebrating Mass. His response to Trump remains the same: “I have no fear of the Trump administration. I will continue to speak out strongly against war. Too many innocent people are being killed.”
