Trump attacks Pope Leo
The relationship between the White House and the Vatican has reached a historic low following Donald Trump's direct attacks on Pope Leo XIV. Speaking to reporters and posting on social media, Trump accused the Chicago-born pontiff of catering to the 'radical left' and being soft on Iran's nuclear ambitions.
The Pope has emerged as a prominent critic of the U.S.-Israeli military campaign, urging the Catholic faithful to pressure their leaders for a ceasefire.
American cardinals have rallied to the Pope's defense, expressing alarm over the president's rhetoric and its potential impact on religious and diplomatic stability.
