Pope Leo Breaks Down Why MAGA Is ‘Not Really’ Pro-Life

The Pope’s no dope — at least when it comes to calling out MAGA’s hypocrisy.

Pope Leo XIV on Tuesday strongly criticized President Donald Trump’s cruel immigration policies and their supporters by suggesting that they don’t seem very “pro-life.”

“Someone who says ‘I’m against abortion but says I am in favor of the death penalty’ is not really pro-life,” Leo said. “Someone who says that ‘I’m against abortion, but I’m in agreement with the inhuman treatment of immigrants in the United States,’ I don’t know if that’s pro-life.”

The pontiff’s comments came in response to reporters’ questions about the Chicago Archdiocese’s plan to give a lifetime achievement award to Sen. Dick Durbin. The Illinois Democrat, who represents the state in which the pope hails, has been a staunch supporter of abortion and immigration rights. The veteran senator, 80, announced in April that he will not be seeking re-election after four decades in public office.

Press secretary Karoline Leavitt — a devout Catholic who is regularly photographed wearing a cross and prays with her staff before her press briefings — pushed back at Leo’s remarks during a press conference at the White House on Wednesday.

“I would reject there was inhumane treatment of illegal immigrants in the United States under this administration,” Leavitt swiftly shot back before taking a page out of MAGA’s playbook by deflecting.

“There was significant inhumane treatment of illegal immigrants in the previous administration,” Leavitt claimed while attacking the right’s favorite scapegoat, former President Joe Biden.

Leavitt went on to claim that immigrants were “trafficked, and raped, and beaten, and in many cases killed” under Biden’s administration.

Then, in the next breath, Leavitt said, “You also have to look at the inhumane treatment at the hands of some of these illegal immigrants.”

This is not the first time the American-born leader of the Roman Catholic Church has criticized Trump’s extremely Christian-happy administration.

The then-cardinal took issue with Vance’s claim of a rigid “biblical” hierarchy that dictates how Christians should prioritize who to love.

“JD Vance is wrong: Jesus doesn’t ask us to rank our love for others,” he wrote while sharing an opinion piece in the National Catholic Reporter that also criticized Vance’s remarks.
