Following his praise for the US Supreme Court's reversal of the Roe v. Wade decision, Pope Francis pivoted to castigate President Biden for his "incoherent" position on the issue.
"Clearly, abortion terminates a human life," the Pope said. "Such a crime can never be a 'woman's right' as advocates of this medical murder claim. Yet, we see self-proclaimed Catholics like President Biden and Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi working to make this crime legal in America. They need to confer with their parish priests to confess their error and seek forgiveness."
The Pope's remarks triggered Biden to declare "I'm the f***ing President of the United States. I have the authority to launch a nuclear attack that would end hundreds of millions of lives. No one has the right to tell me what to do about anything—not even the Pope, much less some piddling parish priest whose name I can't remember."
A less volatile Pelosi more tactfully asserted that she would "continue to quietly attend church and take communion as I have been. The priest isn't thinking about politics when he gives me the Eucharist. Chances that he is aware of what I'm doing in Congress—like codifying Roe v. Wade in statute this week—are small. And once I've taken communion I'm absolved for any transgression I may have technically committed while on the job."
In related news, the 80th General Convention of the Episcopal Church made its stance on abortion coherent by "denouncing the work of Crisis Pregnancy Centers, also known as Pregnancy Resource Centers, that help women choose life for their unborn babies" by assisting them to find adoptive parents for these children. The Convention also apologized for "our past support for the pro-life activities of these centers."

Definitely satire, because the fake pope hasn’t, as far as I know, praised the supreme court decision. Instead, he allowed pelosi to get communion in Rome.
