Pope Francis, 88, passed away on Monday after suffering a cerebral stroke leading to a coma and heart failure. His death followed a brief meeting on Easter Sunday with J.D. Vance, prompting online speculation. While Vance expressed condolences and noted the Pope's illness, some interpreted the Pope's final address as a condemnation of Vance and Trump's anti-immigration stances. The Pope's previous criticisms of Trump's policies are widely known.
