Calls the Pope "an anchor baby from Peru". He was born at Mercy Hospital in Chicago for cryin' out.

On edit: Just did a search. He's a purveyor of right wing BS.

They were US-born, therefore, he is not an "anchor baby." And, both were of European descent. It's sad how many people actually believe the shit this guy and his ilk spew.

MAGA Tries to Sway Pope Vote With $100 Bottles of Wine and Billion-Dollar Promises - Daily Beast

...wealthy VIPs made their preferences for the next pope clear.

“This room could raise a billion to help the church, so long as we have the right pope,” one guest told a reporter from the Times.

The Napa Institute, a MAGA-friendly Catholic network based out of California, also led a “once in a lifetime” pilgrimage to Rome this year that just happened to land its members in the middle of the pre-conclave action, The New York Times reported.

About 20 percent of the Napa Institute’s members are affiliated with Opus Dei, a secretive Catholic sect with deep ties to Project 2025, according to the book Opus: The Cult of Dark Money, Human Trafficking, and Right-Wing Conspiracy Inside the Catholic Church.

because this new pope follows the teachings of the Jesus of Nazareth of the Bible and not the Jesus that the MAGAts have made over in their own greedy, money-grubbing image.
