But unlike every other time in history, an American-born man walked out on that balcony to the cheering crowds below. Robert Francis Prevost is now Pope Leo XIV. Born in Chicago and alum of Villanova University in Philadelphia, he has spent most of his time in Peru and is a dual citizen. He has been serving as head of the Dicastery for Bishops since 2023. The powerful position means
He oversees the selection of new bishops. President Trump giving his congratulations shortly after the announcement, writing on Truth Social, quote, it is such an honor to realize that he is the first American pope. What excitement and what a great honor for our country. I look forward to meeting Pope Leo XIV. It will be a very meaningful moment. A shock pick.
Little has been written in the weeks since Pope Francis' death about what sort of Pope Leo XIV might be. But that has not slowed down the Internet speculation. Many reports describing him as a centrist. His home state of Illinois does not register voters by party, but he appears to have voted in several Republican primaries.
