Trump attacks the Pope on a daily basis. Border czar Tom Homan says the Catholic Church needs to sit at his knee so he can educate them. And JD Vance, who’s been a Catholic since 2019, says he knows more about theology than the Pope. He says the Pope needs to be “careful” when he talks theology. What dishonest, arrogant jerks they all are. And as a Catholic born & raised, baptized as an infant and still practicing, I’m on “Team Pope Leo” when it comes to morality & theology.

The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops issued a statement Wednesday pushing back at JD Vance after he said Pope Leo XIV should ‘be careful’ when speaking about church teachings:
“For over a thousand years, the Catholic Church has taught just war theory and it is that long tradition the Holy Father carefully references in his comments on war. A constant tenet of that thousand-year tradition is a nation can only legitimately take up the sword ‘in self-defense, once all peace efforts have failed’ (Catechism of the Catholic Church, no. 2308). That is, to be a just war it must be a defense against another who actively wages war, which is what the Holy Father actually said: ‘He does not listen to the prayers of those who wage war.’
When Pope Leo XIV speaks as supreme pastor of the universal Church, he is not merely offering opinions on theology, he is preaching the Gospel and exercising his ministry as the Vicar of Christ. The consistent teaching of the Church is insistent that all people of good will must pray and work toward lasting peace while avoiding the evils and injustices that accompany all wars.”

BREAKING: Tulsi Gabbard just referred the whistleblower who triggered Trump’s first impeachment for criminal prosecution.
Also referred: the Inspector General who called the complaint credible.
Let that sink in.
The government is now prosecuting people for telling the truth about the President.
This is not normal. This is a purge.

Trump has totally lost it.
In a confused mess, he claims that justice Ginsburg died after he was out of office.
“Look at Justice Ginsburg. She was not exactly a young woman. The election was taken. They had a Democrat who could've appointed a liberal justice. About two minutes after the election, she went out.”
Note that’s died in September 2020.

Here is a list of all the Jan 6 insurrectionists Trump has pardoned who went on to be arrested and charged for rape, sexually assaulting children, or having CSAM. This is who Trump and MAGA call “real patriots.”

In case you missed it, the recent convert to Catholicism declared— and I’m really not making this up — that it was “very, very important for the pope to be careful when he talks about matters of theology.”
The Fail-Veep then added, “if you’re going to opine on matters of theology…you’ve got to make sure it’s anchored in the truth.” (Irony would weep if it were not long dead.)

BREAKING: EVERYONE NEEDS TO HEAR THIS.
Senator Mark Kelly just completely torched Donald Trump:
"When Donald Trump was driving the Taj Mahal casino into bankruptcy, I was getting shot at over Iraq and Kuwait. In 2001, after Donald Trump said that the collapse of the Twin Towers now meant he now owned the tallest skyscraper in Manhattan, I was carrying flags honoring 911 victims into space on a rocket ship. In 2003, when Donald Trump was writing birthday greetings to the monster, Jeffrey Epstein, I was the first on the scene to recover the bodies of my fellow astronauts who died when Space Shuttle Columbia exploded during re-entry. In 2011, when Trump was hosting a reality show, and peddling conspiracy theories against President Barack Obama, I was sitting next to my wife’s hospital bed as she recovered from a gunshot wound to the head."

BREAKING: The U.S. bishops’ Committee on Doctrine just issued a formal statement defending Pope Leo XIV's teaching authority on just war doctrine — less than twelve hours after JD Vance told a Turning Point USA crowd the pope should “be careful” talking theology.
This is a serious escalation as the institutional Catholic Church is coming together to defend its pontiff from the White House’s political attack.
