Vice President JD Vance flew to Rome hoping to meet with Pope Francis. Instead, the Pope skipped the meeting entirely—and sent his top cardinal to deliver a pointed message about compassion and car…
In February, without naming names, the Pope directly refuted a Catholic concept Vance had twisted to justify deportations. Vance had cited ordo amoris—the “order of love”—to argue that Americans should come first.

Vance, acknowledging the rebuke, called himself a “baby Catholic” and admitted, “there are things about the faith that I don’t know.”
Dude, I’m not Catholic at all and I could have told you that. It’s not really complicated to see that Catholic interpretation Jesus would whip you out of the temple.
I’m an apostate and I can say that if you managed to get to the eucharist you should know that when you don’t know something about catholic doctrine you’re supposed to run it up the msgisterium. That’s what they’re there for. Priests go to college for this shit and usually can set you right. If they don’t know they can ask a bishop. If it’s pressing and uncertain the pope may need to make a call. And if a world leader asks it the pope actually might
Even if you aren’t big on Catholicism, do we think Jesus would advocate harming migrants to put yourself first? This is the guy who said the widow person donating two coppers is a exemplary person because they gave everything they had. From a Catholic pov, surely the right move would be to help migrants over enriching yourself.

Supply Side Jesus would. And let’s be honest that’s the Jesus they pretend to follow.
His boss being a rapist felon that never faces consequences let alone justice. And we’re all supposed to turn a blind eye in their world.
Turning a blind eye is the only way conservatism can function.
