US President and Late Night Talk Show Host Stephen Colbert Criticizes Vice President’s Comments on Pope

US President Joe Biden has been criticized by late night talk show host Stephen Colbert for making comments about the Pope. According to reports, Colbert expressed his desire for the Vice President to “lay off” the Pope.

In a separate development, Catholic bishops have rallied behind Pope Leo in response to criticism from US Senator Chris Vance regarding the Pope’s stance on an Iran war. Vance had made remarks that were seen as counter to the Pope’s position.

Additionally, there has been speculation about whether it is normal for the US President to engage in public sparring with the Pope. The issue has sparked debate among politicians and observers.

US Vice President Kamala Harris has received support from former US President Donald Trump and Senator Ted Cruz, who have both defended her comments on the Pope.

In response to criticism, Pope Leo has emphasized the need for people to hear a message of peace.
