Who is Robert Prevost, the First American to Become Pope Leo XIV in Vatican History? | New Pope
Robert Francis Prevost, now Pope Leo XIV, becomes the first American pontiff with deep Latin American ties.
Born in Chicago, the 69-year-old missionary spent decades in Peru, where he became known for championing the poor, climate justice, and pastoral reforms. He vows to build on Pope Francis’ progressive legacy while bringing his own dynamic focus on social justice.
With a background in immigrant roots and years of ground-level ministry, Leo XIV’s papacy promises continuity with reform, balanced by cultural sensitivity and strong episcopal leadership rooted in the Augustinian tradition.

As the world watches the escalating Iran-Israel conflict with bated breath, Pope Leo has issued a powerful and emotional appeal for "responsibility and reason." In a bold statement, he condemned existential threats, called for dialogue, and demanded a future free from nuclear menace. His urgent message presses world leaders to pursue peace through mutual respect and fraternity. With tensions at their peak and nuclear fears resurfacing, the Pope's call stands as a moral plea for humanity to step back from the brink of destruction and seek just and lasting peace.

Russian President Vladimir Putin held a rare and “constructive” phone call with Pope Leo XIV, accusing Ukraine of deliberately escalating the conflict by sabotaging civilian infrastructure inside Russia. Putin referenced recent train bombings in Bryansk and Kursk as acts of terrorism. He also updated the Pontiff on resumed peace talks with Kiev, the exchange of prisoners, and efforts to reunite displaced children. Putin urged the Pope to support religious freedom in Ukraine and thanked the Holy See for its role in mediating humanitarian issues.

Pope Leo XIV, born Robert Prevost in Chicago, has become the first U.S.-born pontiff and now leads both the Holy See and Vatican City. His dual role as an American citizen and a foreign head of state raises legal and constitutional questions. While U.S. law allows for “active review” of such cases, experts say Leo’s citizenship is unlikely to be revoked unless he explicitly renounces it. The Vatican is a sovereign nation, and Leo holds dual citizenship with Peru as well. The U.S. State Department declined comment on his status.

As U.S. trade tensions mount, China is strengthening its grip on Latin America. At the China-CELAC Forum in Beijing, leaders from across the region gathered, with many deepening their commitment to China’s Belt and Road Initiative. With two-thirds of Latin American countries already on board, China has become the top trading partner for major economies like Brazil and Peru. Meanwhile, Trump's tariff threats and warnings over the Panama Canal have driven mistrust. China now positions itself as the reliable partner Latin America can count on.

A shocking moment was captured on camera in downtown Chicago as a car drove through a crowd of anti-ICE protesters late Tuesday night. The demonstration, part of a growing nationwide movement against recent ICE raids, escalated when a woman behind the wheel pushed through a crowd near Wabash and Monroe. A police officer attempted to intervene, striking the car's window, but the vehicle did not stop. Authorities have not confirmed any injuries, and no arrests have been made so far.

Nationwide anti-ICE protests erupt from Los Angeles to New York, as thousands march against harsh immigration policies. Massive turnouts in Chicago, San Francisco, Atlanta, and beyond lead to over 150 arrests, vandalism, and confrontations with police. A bomb scare in Chicago, sit-ins outside Trump Tower, and tear gas used in Texas signal growing unrest. With 1,800+ protests planned for Saturday to counter Trump’s military parade, the U.S. braces for a weekend of unprecedented resistance.

In a dramatic escalation, U.S President Donald Trump has deployed 2,000 California National Guard troops to Los Angeles—over the strong objections of Governor Gavin Newsom. The move follows two days of increasingly violent protests in the heavily Latino city of Paramount, where immigration raids have sparked clashes with Border Patrol agents in riot gear. Tear gas, flash-bangs, and burning streets set the scene as over 100 immigrants have already been arrested.

U.S President Donald Trump has made headlines once again, this time offering asylum to white South African refugees fleeing what he calls “genocide.” But the move has sparked outrage and raised questions about hypocrisy as Trump continues his tough stance on immigration, particularly toward Black and Hispanic migrants. As the media focuses on the controversial land expropriation in South Africa, many are now calling out the double standard in U.S. immigration policy.
