NEW: A stunning new report claims that the Pentagon summoned Pope Leo XIV’s top American diplomat and threatened him after the U.S.-born pontiff gave his January state-of-the-world address. Leo used the address to denounce a world ruled by “a diplomacy based on force” and “zeal for war.” thelettersfromleo.com/p/the-pentagon…




U.S. Ambassador to the Holy See Brian Burch reveals that Cardinal Christophe Pierre confirmed the Pentagon did not threaten the Vatican: "I was pleased to speak today with His Eminence, Cardinal Christophe Pierre. As expected, he confirmed that recent media characterizations of his meeting with Undersecretary Colby are 'fabrications' that were 'just invented.' Given the intelligence and seriousness of Mr. Colby, I was likewise not suprised when His Eminence acknowledged there were no threats of any kind in the meeting. 'It was a frank and cordial meeting that took place two months ago.' Threat of Avignon? 'None.'"



Note to MAGA authoritarians — don’t fu*k with the Catholic Church. We will defeat you.



So maybe I don’t get this because I’m not Catholic, but even if I believed this story, the pope is obviously a lefty. He blessed a piece of ice in honor of climate change for Pete’s sake. I don’t get why the Trump Admin would want him at any events.

Pope Leo XIV was half an hour late for his audience with the Italian Winter Olympic and Paralympic committees because he was meeting with David Alexrod, Obama’s chief strategist, this morning.





The Pope is not “woke.” What you’re witnessing is a millennia of Catholic social teaching developed over countless encyclicals and the lifework of a vast cloud of witnesses to the love of Christ towards the whole world.
