Three U.S. Catholic Cardinals Issue Rare Joint Rebuke of Trump's Greenland and Venezuela Policies

Cardinals Blase Cupich (Chicago), Robert McElroy (Washington), and Joseph Tobin (Newark) issued a rare joint statement declaring the U.S. had entered "the most profound and searing debate about the moral foundation for America's actions in the world since the end of the Cold War." Citing Pope Leo XIV's warning against "warmaking," the cardinals condemned threats against Greenland, Venezuela, and cuts to humanitarian aid.
