Pope Francis skipped the Vatican's official meeting with Vice President JD Vance Saturday, instead having his No. 2 give the vice president a lecture on compassion, according to a Vatican statement. Pope Francis was absent from Vance's conversation with Cardinal Pietro Parolin. However, the statement said there was "an exchange of opinions on the international situation, especially regarding countries affected by war, political tensions and difficult humanitarian situations, with particular attention to migrants, refugees, and prisoners." It called for "serene collaboration" between the White House and the Catholic Church in the United States"a seeming hint to the tensions that have brewed between the two since President Donald Trump took office.
Another humiliation VD Jance brought upon his wife. How much more can Usha shallow? Shunned in Greenland, booed at the Kennedy Center, and now this. And did Cardinal Pietro Parolin stare at the dot on her forehead or had she taken it off in order to blend in the white supremacists of the GOP? english.cdn.zeenews.com
