The first-ever pope from the United States is clashing with the White House. Pope Leo XIV, head of the Catholic Church, which counts more than a billion people in the world as its members, has spoken out forcefully against war. He said in his Palm Sunday address that Jesus "does not listen to the prayers of those who wage war … [whose] hands are full of blood." In response, President Donald Trump said Pope Leo is "weak on crime, and terrible for foreign policy." Trump is also under fire for sharing an AI-generated image that appears to show himself as Jesus Christ. Pressed about the controversy in an interview on Fox News, Trump's Catholic Vice President JD Vance said the pope should "stick to matters of morality."
"I don't know any other more pressing moral issues than war and peace, taking care of the poor, the sick, the homeless, the stranger," says Father James Martin, a writer and Jesuit priest. "I don't understand how Vice President Vance cannot see that war is a moral issue. … This idea that some people don't deserve mercy is completely against the Christian message."
