Pope’s envoy worried over USAID cuts, US migrant crackdown

The Vatican's charity is voicing outrage at what it calls the “reckless” and “unhuman” U.S. plans to gut USAID

Humanitarian leaders raise concern about possible end to USAIDOn “This Week” leaders of international aid organizations explain how Trump’s cutting of USAID affects their work.
The Associated Press

VATICAN CITY -- The Vatican's charity voiced outrage Monday at what it called the “reckless” and “unhuman” U.S. plans to gut USAID, with Pope Francis’ point-man on development aid insisting that the Trump administration remember Christian principles about caring for others as it begins governing.

Cardinal Michael Czerny, a Czech-born Canadian Jesuit, is one of the cardinals most closely associated with Francis’ pontificate and heads the Vatican office responsible for migrants, the environment, the church’s Caritas Internationalis charity and development.

Caritas on Monday warned that millions of people will die as a result of the “ruthless” U.S. decision to “recklessly” stop USAID funding, and hundreds of millions more will be condemned to “dehumanizing poverty.”

Which is it?  The Vatican is worried about immigrants, or the Vatican is worried about the money it will have to cough up to continue the scam. :pondering:

Pope Sends Letter to US Bishops Slamming Mass Deportations, Says Illegal Immigrants Are Not Criminals
Feb. 11, 2025
Protestia
Quote
Pope Francis continues to wade into American politics in a way he doesn’t do for other countries, sending a letter to US bishops decrying mass deportation and rejecting “any measure that tacitly or explicitly identifies the illegal status of some migrants with criminality.”  ...

As a result, he insists that while a country has a right to defend itself and close off its borders from illegal immigrants who committed criminal acts before coming, it does not have that same right if they’ve committed no crime prior, while also arguing that crossing illegally is no crime. ...
Italics mine, and it's a good point. There are a whole lot of other nations on this earth. Butt into their affairs for a change, Pope.

I wonder what the Pope thinks about his own countryman in Argentina now that Milei is in charge?

Pope told to 'stick to Church' after Trump migrant critique

The Argentine pontiff accused US President Donald Trump of 'damaging the dignity' of migrants through his stringent deportation policy.
 
Pope Francis described Donald Trump's migrant deportations as a "major crisis" Tuesday, prompting a rebuke from the US president's border czar, who told the pontiff to "stick to the Catholic Church."

In a letter to US bishops, Francis, 88, said deporting people who had fled their own countries in distress "damages the dignity" of the migrants and could leave many vulnerable and defenceless.

"I exhort all the faithful of the Catholic Church, and all men and women of goodwill, not to give in to narratives that discriminate against and cause unnecessary suffering to our migrant and refugee brothers and sisters," he wrote.

The letter, published by the Vatican, sparked a swift retort from the Trump White House.

Maybe the Vatican should be using more of its funds to help the poor and uneducated in Latin America.

Well I think pope socialista faggato knows a lot about butting :whistle: He’s so worried about this because it cuts money going into the church. He doesn’t care about the individuals or their souls, if he really cared about Catholics, Christians and their souls he would constantly talking about all the Christians slaughtered in Africa by moslems, but there is no money to be made from them so…..crickets.

Yep, he is trying to resurrect the power of Popes of the Middle Ages when Popes ruled most of Europe either directly or by their Emperor puppets.

America is a secular nation free from 'Popery'.  Go cry in your Holy Water.

A friend of my wife's family is an immigration lawyer for Catholic Charities.  Catholic Charities is up to its elbows profiting from illegal immigration. 

 ////00000////

The illegal immigrant poor are only taking the public assistance that poor Americans don't want.

Maybe he's trying to atone for his country's history of allowing high ranking Nazis to immigrate there. :whistle:

Pope Francis Announces That God Agrees With Whatever It Is Democrats Want To Do Right Now
 Feb 13, 2025 · BabylonBee.com

ROME — Pope Francis, Pontiff of the Roman Church, has just confirmed that God agrees with whatever it is that the Democrats want to do right now.

According to the papal bull Fines Apertae, Pope Francis has assured the faithful around the world that God is pretty cool with whatever is the current Democrat agenda.

"Sic vult Deus, ita volunt Democrati. Frociaggeto! Democrati volunt modo bona, quae Deo placeant. Imprimatur — nihil obstet — omnia sunt bona, cum facta amore sint," the Pope eloquently explained, as several American bishops quietly dealt with heart attacks in another room. "Fiat voluntas Democratorum. Nobis et Deo placet. Fines apertandae sunt. Mundus noster nimis caldus est. Terribile dictu."

According to sources, the Pope's statement roughly translates to say: "Whatever the Democrats will is also the will of God." ...

I'm beginning to think the Pope is the Ecclesiastical Joe Biden!
Worse than that, the Pope has become the Ecclesiastical Nancy Pelosi!
He denies her communion, while saying everything she says, and supporting everything she supports. He is a male Nancy Pelosi.

Is the Pope a 'trans'?

Maybe we have a reverse Mrs. Doubtfire situation? Has anyone ever seen them together at the same time?
