Ole pb has mixed feelings about this. He supports the removal of illegal murderers and rapists from America, in fact, everyone of the ilk of Kilmar Abrego Garcia. Ole pb's said here, since The ONE was President, that it's time for new and constructive, non-partisan immigration law in the US.
Ole pb will note, as he has in the past, that the Pope and the Vatican... Roman Catholicism in general... practice what pb thinks of as "Donna-Religion," i.e., that people should attempt to foist their religious beliefs on the political realm.
The Pope, essentially, wanted to make the grace and mercy that Jesus commands the law of the land. It don't work that way here.
...it was Trump’s signature first term policy of building a border wall that appeared to draw papal ire in the funeral eulogy. The policy was much criticized by Francis in his lifetime, and Cardinal Giovanni Battista Re, who delivered the homily, made sure that the late Pope’s hostility to the policy was not forgotten.
Re said: “Pope Francis incessantly raised his voice imploring peace and calling for reason and honest negotiation to find possible solutions... ‘Build bridges, not walls,’ was an exhortation he repeated many times.”
The homily may only have been an implicit rebuke, but after such a public clash over building walls there can be no mistake that it was a deliberate and pointed one from the Vatican in front of millions watching around the world.
On Trump’s return to office, their feud exploded back into public view after Francis denounced Trump’s plans for mass deportations as “a disgrace,” accusing him of punishing the vulnerable.
Trump’s allies hit back, mocking the Pope’s criticisms by pointing to the high, secure walls around Vatican City.
