Watch: Vance Heckled as He Chides Pope
At a recent event in Georgia, U.S. Vice President JD Vance faced audience criticism after critiquing Pope Leo’s stance on the Iran conflict. A spectator interrupted the gathering, urging Vance to “be careful when he talks about matters of theology” as the vice president voiced concerns about the pontiff’s comments. This exchange followed Pope Leo’s ongoing condemnation of the war in Iran, which he described as causing “absurd and inhuman violence.”
“I have no fear of the Trump administration or of speaking out loudly about the message of the Gospel,” the pope stated during his remarks.
