In a stunning breach of diplomatic norms, Trump's ambassador to the Holy See issued a statement that misrepresented Pope Leo’s remarks on Venezuela in order to defend the U.S. military invasion.
Such a misrepresentation is unprecedented in the history of formal relations between the two governments

Trump’s Vatican Ambassador Misrepresents Pope Leo’s Venezuela Remarks to Defend U.S. Military Action
Brian Burch’s public spin on Pope Leo XIV’s Venezuela remarks marks a striking departure from four decades of candor in U.S.–Vatican relations.

Exactly- you would expect a bishop to have at least a basic understanding of the early Christian notion of koinonia.
Or at the very least to preach in the spirit thereof ….

The Roman Catholic Church actually promotes collectivism (not communism) and adamantly opposes the rugged individualism that Bishop Robert Barron worships. Ours is a communitarian faith. Barron is a bad faith actor, in multiple ways.

How many Muslims a country has or how it treats Muslims has nothing to do with nuclear responsibility.
Nuclear armed countries with higher percentages of Muslims than the UK or France: Russia, India, Israel, and esp Pakistan.

JD Vance argues that having Muslims makes the UK and France too dangerous to have nukes, which will be great for US relations with India and Pakistan.
So if you’re keeping track, the Trump administration’s position on nuclear arms is:
North Korea: cool, nonthreatening
France and UK: bad, dangerous

A case where the quote is even worse in context than out of context. JD is scaremongering about “Islamists” winning elections in the UK/France and then somehow militarily threatening the US. Saying we should hold Europeans and Africans to different moral standards but anti-wokely.
