why on God‘s great green earth with these idiots think inviting Pope would be a great idea? Returning all the people that they took from Chicago rather than giving him a Chicago Bears jersey might’ve pleased the pope a little bit more.

They're clout chasing, and Leo saw right through it.

Absolutely! Well said!

Made my day! Really dig this Pope. 🙂 Thanks God for making me smile.

My pleasure 😇

Normally am not a fan of traditional religions, nor of their clergy. But, Pope Leo seems different. BLESS POPE LEO!!!

The big hat makes no difference. It’s the man under it.

Every part of me that never understood catholic ways has come to an understanding about it. Don't piss off the pope is the number one rule.

the Pope's ability to smite is second only to God's

That birthday party will be such a crashing bore. Who wants to watch Trump fall asleep and drool?

I am looking forward to the protests on July 4

Also, he will be farting and filling his diapers.

After 🇨🇦 losing the gold medal game I needed this chuckle... 🙏

Christie's avatar

I am SO DISAPPOINTED that the US won…but I was cheering on Canada over the US, despite the fact I am citizen of your team’s opposition! Supporting Canada all the way!

Terry's avatar

Well at least the 🇨🇦 men took home the Gold in curling and the 🇨🇦 women beat the US for the bronze in curling. 😊

JP Connolly's avatar

And the Norwegians beat everybody pretty much.

Ann Panda's avatar

I'm sorry. I live in the US but I'm supporting Canada all the way.

What on earth (and in Heaven) would make the Bloviator in Chief think that the Pope would want to attend his hedonistic party? SMH. Not His style. Maybe invite Him to one of the immigrant concentration camps to bless the poor souls there. That would be more His style. Then His Holiness could go to the WH to have some harsh words with the orange Palpatine.

Jabba and his Hutts think having the Pope would make it appear that he approves their efforts. The Pope isn’t a Hutt.

Cathy Rady's avatar

maybe he should send RFK jr & Kid Rock to see if Pope Leo would consider joining them in a workout video

The Pope will surely regret missing out on WWE wrestling on the south lawn and is it true there will be some kind of street race in DC? And the t-shirt for the Pope?

Such a travesty. So freaking embarrassing.

JD Vance is a CINO, Catholic In Name Only. Can't believe you, God, didn’t have lightning strike him in his attempt to lure the Holy Father into Trumpalooza 2026 which will be a desecration of our country's 250th birthday. 🇺🇸

JP Connolly's avatar

Absolute desecration! What a mess.

If the pope told the couch molester to eff off ... exactly whom does the pope do confession with ... and more importantly... how many hail mary's and our fathers must he recite to get back in your good graces ... or do you high five him and say ... hell yea dude ?

It would be divine if Pope Leo would quit taking visits from Trump's lackey. However, shutting him down at every turn is also fantastic. I feel like if I was Pope Leo, I would be compelled to tell Vance how he's the saddest excuse of a Catholic that's ever existed. Someday I hope that Chitown cynicism leaks out when they are speaking.

Cat's avatar

Separation of church and state anyone? What does the pope have to do with our nation’s founding? Nothing. But they want a religious country anyway. The pope knows this and said no. Amen.

The US really hasn't been pro-Catholic for much of its history. Just one example: the Klan isn't just anti-blacks. it's also anti-Catholic.

This history is why electing JFK was such a big deal.

What Republicans/conservatives liked was a CONSERVATIVE pope. started with JPII. Continued with Benedict. Then they freaked out with Francis, & all of a sudden they didn't like what the pope said. Continues with Leo.

Aaron Rupar shared this call into Cspan by a "John in VA," who ranted about the tariff decision.

Sure sounds like the felon.

He used to disguise himself on the phone as John Barron didn't he in years gone by. Old habits . . . etc.
