“Woke” Pope Leo XIV slammed by MAGA supporters
The smoke above the Vatican is white. On Thursday evening local time, Robert Francis Prevost was elected as the new Pope. The 69-year-old took the name Leo XIV, the first Leo in over a hundred years. While Catholics worldwide celebrated him, some were less than happy. On social media, Leo are now being criticized by MAGA supporters.

American Robert Prevost appeared on the balcony of St. Peter’s Basilica to the roar of thousands of people gathered in St Peter’s Square.
