| 0:00.0 | Pope Leo the 14th is absolutely furious at Donald Trump and his regime. |
| 0:05.8 | And the Pope basically ordered the bishops and cardinals and priests in the United States to have their voices heard and to assert themselves and to powerfully rebuke and stand up to Donald Trump and his regime for their treatment of |
| 0:23.6 | migrants. |
| 0:24.5 | So Catholic bishops issued a rare formal and public rebuke of Donald Trump and his entire |
