Hannity weighs in on the recent Trump-Pope exchanges.

During Thursday night’s Hannity, Fox News host Sean Hannity addressed the recent statements exchanged through the media between President Trump and Pope Leo XIV.

“Why is the Pope twisting religion to only attack President Trump and the U.S.?” Hannity asked during Thursday night’s monologue. “Why did he recently meet with top Obama adviser David Axelrod and far-left Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker? Is it because he’s a run-of-the-mill Trump-hating Democrat that lacks moral clarity about radical Islam? By the way, did he talk to him about abortion?”

“Where are the pointed words for Iran? This evil regime. The number one state sponsor of terror,” Hannity continued. “The people who murdered 45,000 innocent protesters — not a peep from Pope Leo.”

“Iran oppresses women. Nothing from Pope Leo. Tortures them, rapes them, kills them — nothing from Pope Leo. Iran backs terrorists in Iraq and Beirut who have killed Americans for decades. Nothing from Pope Leo.”

“And while the Pope condemns all nuclear weapons … he doesn’t seem interested in ever referencing Iran’s ever relenting pursuit of them,” Hannity added.

And what about Pope Leo’s old X account, riddled with anti-Trump messages?
