If I was the pope and meeting JD the couch fucker was in the agenda, I’d also decline. Considering what happened to the previous pope who met that turd with makeup.
It is being reported by The Free Press that in the meeting [Undersecretary of Defense for Policy Elbridge] Colby told [the Vatican ambassador to the U.S.] Pierre, “The United States has the military power to do whatever it wants in the world. The Catholic Church had better take its side.”
well the US has now totally gone rogue.
at this point a “military operation” into Vatican City of all places by the US wouldn’t surprise me.
Someone in the meeting then reportedly mentioned the Avignon Papacy to Pierre. This refers to a 14th century attack on the Vatican by the French king, in which Pope Boniface VIII was murdered by assassins and the Vatican was forced to relocate to Avignon where it could be controlled by the French crown for the next 67 years.
FTA
Holy shit did someone in the administration actually correctly use a historical reference?
Im sure they just asked grok about pope murders so they could make a absolutely ludicrious threat.
Threatening the POPE is EXACTLY what Jesus would Do!
-Republicans who want the Bible to be Law!
On the matter VP Vance had this to say “I think it’s always a bad idea to offer an opinion on stories that are unconfirmed and uncorroborated, so I’m not going to do that.”
this is coming from the “Haitians are breaking into homes to eat your pets!” guy
