The newly elected Pope Leo XIV's older brother, Lou Prevost, has a history of controversial far-right Facebook posts, expressing strong anti-Democratic, anti-LGBTQ+, and anti-immigrant views. Despite their differing political ideologies, Lou predicts his brother's papacy will be apolitical. However, Leo's past social media activity suggests some divergence from Trump's policies, including support for statements criticizing family separations at the border. While Lou claims they have disagreements, his posts have drawn criticism, leading to some questioning the new Pope's stance.
