Finally. Someone told him about reality.
U.S-born Pope Leo XIV sharply criticized the advocates who encouraged the deadly migrations that have killed many thousands of migrants over the last 10 years....
... "Mafias that profit from despair, traffickers who enslave women and children, and those whose indifference allows the poor to be swallowed up by exploitation or forgetfulness." [he said.]...
... In a later June 12 speech in Spain, the pope also told migrants — including self-segregating Muslim migrants — that they should integrate themselves into the host countries: “Open yourselves with trust to the community that welcomes you, to learn its language, to respect its laws, to get to know its customs, to participate in communal life, and to offer your gifts with gratitude.”...
That might take a few more weeks, Holiness.
The Pope also took a not-too-subtle slam at "economic migration":
... "While there is a right to seek refuge when life is threatened, there is also the right not to have to migrate: the right to remain in one’s own home without hunger, war, persecution, violence, the land becoming uninhabitable, corruption stealing the bread from the poor or weapons destroying the future of children. We cannot grow accustomed to counting the dead."...
Sending JDVance over there to chat has had good effects.
Now, someone please inform the Bishop of El Paso.

Indeed, he does. This remains the key part.
I believe 'Little' Marco spoke with the Pope also. I think that the Pope is surrounded by those who want to obfuscate what is really going on about immigrants because there's big money to be made. Funny huh? When the Pope spoke a few weeks ago and said that countries had a right to regulate their own borders and that immigrants need to respect the laws of the host country, the USBCC has been a bit more low key in trashing Trumps immigration actions. We can only hope for the best.
