POS

Yeah, I have a shitbag brother also

That’s wrong

Really? That’s why I am not on Facebook

Fuck him.

Hey, I get it. My entire family is under the MAGA spell and think Trump is the Chosen One lol

The family thing. So many of us have had to leave those who hate behind. Luke 14: 26 You must love me more than your father, mother, wife, children, brothers, and sisters—even more than your own life!

Facebook is the enemy!

Too bad. People can be poison.

*some* families are made up entirely of horrible people.

Yep

South side white folks: it's in their mother's milk.

Almost all of us have these people in our families and it can make for some very awkward, uncomfortable conversations.

Blimey!

He's also got another brother John, who speaks fondly of him, and Biden Family Affair 🎶

Thank you! John's declaration that Robert was a White Sox fan went viral for a day or two, but suddenly Lou is his only brother?

Thanksgiving in that family should be F.U.N.

None of us are our brother’s (or sister’s / other relatives’) keeper. I will evaluate Pope Leo based on his own actions.

Even the Pope has lost family to the maga scourge.

TBF the pope has some pretty fucking fruity views of his own and, as a consequence, can get right to fuck.

He sounds like a piece of work.

To be fair, Leo has said some not great things about LGBTQIA+. I wonder how long before people realize he hates us, too. He may not like Trump, but he hates us.

Are there any MAGA deprogramming facilities?

There are two in our family. They do not allow family members see the grandsons. Raised in good homes with democratic ideals.

Yeah, always one of them

Here we go. Don't spread this crap. It has nothing to do with the pope (if it's even real.)

Is that the older brother in Florida?

We are not responsible for our siblings behavior and beliefs. Going no contact was the best thing I ever did for my mental health, though.

Awwwkwaaaard…

Is this the brother that lives in Florida now?

I deleted Facebook and Instagram last Tuesday as a boycott of Zuckerberg. I deleted Twitler the day after Elon bought it. I have a newfound sense of freedom that I haven't felt in fifteen years. Everyone should get off of FB, Instagram, and Twitler, just for the fun of it!

Yep.

The Popes brother is a disgraceful POS.

So Bob has a knob for a brother, who would have thunk~~

Let’s just be happy it wasn’t him who felt the call.

you can pick your nose, you can pick your friends, but folks, you cannot pick your family!

Facebook? I vaguely recall leaving something called that 3 or 4 years ago.

The fact that his brother is mentally ill probably makes him more compassionate.

Bro isn’t very Christian, now is he?

There’s always ‘that brother’ or ‘that sister.’ LOL

The Pope is having his Billy Carter moment. A lot of people can relate!

Facebook has jumped the shark

...20 years ago.

Interesting that it's not the brother who lives in Illinois. That one seems pretty normal. Something about Florida men.

how soon until he gets his own beer like President Carter's brother Billy

Proof, nature over nurture

Plenty of racist Trump supporters in every family. (I have never met a Trump supporter who wasn’t racist)

We all have that ONE family member that we don't really talk about and leave out of most gatherings

I’m glad my brother isn’t on Facebook. He would be just as ripe.

I would never want to be held accountable for the mistakes of my sibling. The same goes for the Pope.

Ngl, I don't know of anyone in my family who does that. It's the one thing that my family has done right. And we are absolutely all the colors of the rainbow and some are also religious, so it can be done.

Cashing in on his brother's new position to get himself in the 'negative' limelight. Yes, there's always one! I only hope that Leo XIV doesn't possess traditional Catholic bigotry!

Oh, dear.

You can’t choose your family 🤷‍♀️

Can’t pick your relatives but you can put plenty of distance between yourself and them. I certainly did!

I knew it , when there’s big families is always one …

I bet he doesn’t get the big bedroom when he visits.

I knew there would be something about him, he made sure he was in all the news immediately. That much attention seeking is never a good sign.

Just the vulgar nature of his posts on Facebook show what kind of a sick person he is. Typical MAGA base personality. Imagine. His brother is the Pope.

Unfortunately, in my family, I'm the only one not doing so. There's a reason I don't speak with anyone. They say I think I'm better than them; that is not entirely accurate. I don't think so; I KNOW I am. #BeWhoYouAre #LoveEveryone #CelebrateYourself

Retired school teacher niece expressing her woes of trump does not want to bother her pretty little head and demonstrate for herself and her granddaughter. Auntie Pat is now on the shit list.

There is always one nutjob in every family.

So many of us have that one sibling who's a moron. None of reflects upon Pope Leo at all.

Woke Pope's bro's a dope? Such is life.

The middle brother (from IL) seems to be much closer to Leo. Had him visit for weeks last year. Plays Wordle w him. Said he'd follow Francis. The older brother said right away he wondered if he'd ever see Leo again, while the other one next day was on a plane for Rome. Looks like different ties.

Well, there’s someone like that in every catholic family.

Or in my case, two in every family unfortunately.

If I was related to that arsehole, I might think about being Pope too.

In all seriousness, who cares? FB is amplifying any negative angle they can find to distract from the new Pope who is obviously for helping the less fortunate. FB is a MAGA channel.

Americans will dredge this poor man through the ringer, too. Just a matter of time.

This is the Florida brother, not the school teacher, I assume?

Sadly that "one member" in the Trump family lives at 1600 Penn Ave, trafficks legal residents and has the nuclear codes.

Doesn't everyone have at least one stupid MAGA relative?

youtu.be/oXFoTlhTkRc?...

The brother is NOT THE POPE. Let’s move the fuck on from the brother and leave him to his private citizenry of sexist bigoted beliefs.

Oh ffs everyone has at least one. Let it be...

True. Still, the brother isn't Pope. I'm more concerned about Pope Leo, whose past actions and comments show that he wasn't progressive in his thinking about the LGBTQ community. 19thnews.org/2025/05/pope...

America, Land of the Foul, Home of the Bigots

He needs Jesus...

Who can forget Billy Carter?

Pretty standard stuff, always at least one in a family who is well and truly off the deep-end...

Methinks someone wants to be famous by association 😒

Sadly, the guy said what was in his heart. And, sadly, a lot of us have Maga family members, but that doesn't mean we think the same way...

Sigh. There's at least one complete douche in every family.

It might run in the family www.theguardian.com/world/2025/m...

Too often it's the whole family. Sometimes hate and stupidity are inherited, nurture and nature.

I think the pope’s brother should shut down all his social media accounts ASAP.

Media fuckwits will go after any shard of a person of person. His brother obviously is going become the bane of the pope. Pope has a media team.. please induct the family so you can get out of this 🗑️.

Well it's the same position than any regular catholic. They are in a death cult that hate things not like them

...I have several...

I'm glad that it's not ME that's the failure, looks at brother, with a condo and gf .. Oh shit

He’s looking for his 15 minutes of fame on the cassock of the Pope.

I keep wondering if there’s some random bottle of Kool-Aid people drink—then suddenly reason, kindness, our mothers’ teachings, love, and fairness vanish. But no, it’s slower, more insidious—fed through every channel into our minds. Garbage in, garbage out.

It's sad but strangely comforting that even the Pope has that one relative that no one really wants to invite over for Thanksgiving....

Nice loving christist.

There's one in every family 🤷‍♂️. In my case it's my dipshit jailbird junkie brother.

Of course he's made his own bed, and now he has to sleep in it, which of course means mooching off of my parents to cover his legal fees. Par for the course with MAGA.

He 100% would have been at J6, if he'd had any money and hadn't been in prison on drug charges at the time.

I'd personally let him rot and not cover anything.

Meanwhile I feel guilty just asking for help to buy special occasion dresses for the girls 🤷‍♂️. I guess we're just built different.

In every family there is a black sheep. Isn’t it just surprising? Under same parents and with the same upbringing there is a crazy one. My husband has a crazy brother and I also have a sister I cut ties with.

This just shows how deep the division in the USA goes, it doesn't stop at families. Unfortunately, this is not an American problem.

No one's business.

Lucky if there’s only one!

It is comforting to know the Pope has a Trumper brother. Families all across America can stop blaming themselves for their crazy, racist relatives. They can’t pray this away. We have proof of that. It is a cult. It is exhausting and deeply hurtful too.

It really IS a cult. It’s hard to think of it that way because it’s such a huge, well-known cult. Getting someone out of it is just as hard as getting someone out of a more “typical” cult. There’s not much we can do besides help the people who are starting to snap out of it.

why I no longer speak to some relatives too

Yes. I've got one 🫣

Anyone that has a bit of 🧠has already left fb instagram or twitter and not believe the bull💩💩💩💩on those platforms

Why feed immigration exactly how you live your life on a moment by moment timeline. Zuck looks the other way and it seems he helps the hunters hunt. Get off that platform asap. (Spot on post btw)…

Welp, I guess he just outed himself as a full blown magat.

Pope Leo explain this one.

Every family has one who is an embarrassment. Even the Pope.

Can't agree with you more George, can't agree with you more

This is why I don't hold people responsible for their family members. It's not Vivian's fault that her dad is an arsehead either.

Just the same, Elon might be a dick but he isn’t responsible for his grandfather.

Exactly.

Okay this is proof that the new pope is an American, coming from a traditional American family. With the hate spewed, just makes the new pope more human!

Hey kids: remember everything you write online lives forever.

An older brother using his younger brother’s fame for clout.

Thoughts and prayers to him.

Very true. And the platform itself just lends itself to that behavior...and has for years. An easy place to rant endlessly and blather on to "friends." Had enough 7 yrs ago and won't go back.

Wait: John's declaration that his brother, Robert, was a White Sox fan went viral for a day or two, but suddenly Lou is Robert's only brother?

Another nobody, clout chasing, ex-spurt, influencer.

I have 3 sisters, one of them is a fucking moron. We can't choose or relatives but we can choose our friends.

Why is anyone surprised? The current pope is a bigot who is anti-gay rights. Just because he doesn’t like trump doesn’t mean he’s pro you www.theguardian.com/world/2025/m...

He's nobody

Let’s remember that we’re not Klingons and that Pope Leo is not bound by the sins of the father or brother.

I'm pretty sure that the Pope won't be sitting next to his hateful brother at Thanksgiving dinner. Sorry to Pope Leo. We all have at least one nut job in the family.

And their siblings are almost always cut from the same cloth.

Why do I get the immediate impression that he's about to be the newest recruit to the Christianist reactionary grifter circuit?

I'll bet he's the one that moved to Flori-duh!

Reminds me of Billy “Beer” Carter. 🙄 I wonder what this sibling will do to capitalize on his brothers fame. Every family had one. 😳

Jimmy Cater had Billy, The pope has Lou.

Oh nooo ugh

Im sure his parents are so proud 🙄

The Pope, I feel sure, has his older brother's measure.

I keep forgetting that the church really isn’t about love

The last pure monarchy in Europe.

That one person doesn’t represent the entire church

See that one person now has the attention of the church esp when you are a cardinal or bishop

That one person is a random family member, not the pope.

We all have batty family members

pick and choose your friends, unfortunately we are stuck with our family.

Guess Pope won't be invited to bother's house for Thanksgiving.

Well, I’m glad the pope’s brother is not the pope. 👍

I don't know. I just heard a republican Congressman say, Trump, getting this $400,000,000 million plane is okay because the transaction is in the open. So if a bank robber announces beforehand he's going to rob a bank, then that's okay. No, that's not okay.The man is a crook. And that's too kind.

he’ll die mad that his brother is the pope and he’s some loser on facebook

He literally said on tv he’d call him an idiot and nothing had changed

Yeah, we don't invite them to parties.

It's a Catholic Yin/Yang, this proves that Pope Leo has the mandate of Heaven.

Heh! I can identify.

Exactly

I'm sure he will be forgiven...

It does disprove the “Apple not far from tree” theory

What do you expect? Leo here aided and abetted serial child rapist priests. These people are as unXtian and ungodly as they come.

Ngl we can't expect the Pope to be much better in that regard
