Vice President J.D. Vance just drew a hard line between the Vatican and the White House, telling Pope Leo XIV to “stick to matters of morality” and leave American public policy to the president. The clash comes after the first American pope publicly criticized the administration’s stance on Iran and immigration, sparking a social media spat with the president.
According to Fox News, Vance sat down with Fox News’ Bret Baier on Special Report Monday to defend the president after the Pope called out the administration’s foreign policy. “I certainly think that in some cases, it would be best for the Vatican to stick to matters of morality,” Vance said.
