May 19, 2025

Pope Leo XIV, formerly Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost, has emerged as one of the most digitally engaged pontiffs in history.

Before his election, he was an outspoken presence on social media, weighing in on political and social issues that often-sparked debate.

Among his key posts:

• Criticism of US politics - He shared articles critical of President Donald Trump's immigration policies and Vice President JD Vance's interpretation of Christian love.

• Support for social justice - Following the death of George Floyd in 2020, he urged clergy to speak out against racial injustice.

• Opposition to the death penalty - He actively shared messages against capital punishment and deportation policies.

• Gun control advocacy - In the wake of mass shootings, he reposted calls for stricter firearm regulations.
