Marco Rubio Heads To Italy To Accost Pope Leo Over Iran War Criticisms
Secretary of State Marco Rubio is heading to Italy to try and cajole, bully, or force Pope Leo to stop criticizing Trump's attack on Iran.
The Pope has heavily criticized the U.S. for this war, and refuses to be intimidated by Trump or his goons. After Trump reinstated the death penalty, Pope Leo continued his barrage of insults.
"I offer my support to those who advocate for the abolition of the death penalty in the United States of America and around the world," he added. "I pray that your efforts will lead to a greater acknowledgement of the dignity of every person, and will inspire others to work for the same just cause."
In this time of war, you'd think the United States Secretary of State would have better things to do than visit with the Holy See, but Trump can't handle any criticism of himself or his crazy actions.
“Secretary Rubio will meet with Holy See leadership to discuss the situation in the Middle East and mutual interests in the Western Hemisphere,” the department said. “Meetings with Italian counterparts will be focused on shared security interests and strategic alignment.”
How is the Vatican supposed to share in our security interests?
