Full Episode
Well, folks, tons of news to get to, and we'll explain sort of why we are abroad in the very near future. First, The Daily Wire doesn't just bring you the stories you need to know. We bring you to the center of the story. While legacy media filters the truth through bias and spin, we deliver it unfiltered, ad-free, politics, culture, entertainment. We don't just cover the fight. We are in it.
Join us right now at dailywire.com slash subscribe. So we were off yesterday, as I say, for travel. We'll know why in very short order, however. While we were off, the Pope passed away. That, of course, was long expected. He'd been sick for a while.
We talked about it on the show just a few weeks ago with my friend Michael Knowles, who explained how the conclave will work and what the Pope's legacy is. Pope Francis's legacy, according to the left media, is that he was leftist. That is how the left media are playing it. They played it all the way this weekend.
The entire left media was basically united in the idea that Pope Francis was important because he isn't President Trump. Here is a compendium of various members of the media basically suggesting that his sole importance lies in the fact that he opposed many of the Trump administration agenda items.
Pope Francis has been vocal, speaking out against ways that the Trump administration has handled migrant issues to also issues across Europe.
Even before he was elected in 2016, the pope talked about this idea of building walls to keep out migrants as something that he said was unchristian. And this sort of continued over the course of his presidency.
Many on the hard right inside the church were shocked that this pope would actually borrow from Jesus Christ and living that simple life.
And again, the reason that the left-leaning media like Pope Francis is because, again, I speak as somebody who really does not have a dog in this particular fight. It's because he was a liberation theologist. He is somebody who believed in a sort of Marxism mix-up with Roman Catholicism.
And what that meant is that on economic issues, on issues ranging from migration to distribution of resources to the environment, he put heavy focus on a very left-wing perspective. Now, what people in the media like to ignore was the fact that Pope Francis actually was still traditional on issues ranging from same-sex marriage to abortion to transgenderism.
