Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni visited Pope Francis in hospital on Wednesday, a day after he was diagnosed with double pneumonia, saying that she had found him alert and responsive.

"We joked as always. He hasn't lost his proverbial sense of humor," Meloni said in a statement.

Hopefully soon. And the next Pope had better not be a commie!

Bergoglio has padded the conclave with his guys, so yes, odds are, it will be another Commie.

I'm looking forward to seeing white smoke over the Vatican. A communist pope isn't really a pope.

“...double pneumonia”

I am suspicious of this article - the pope has one lung so how can he have double pneumonia?

Pope Francis needs to convert; he has done great damage to the church.

From what I have “learned” from AI review....he had part of his right lung removed as a young man.
Maybe the docs should have said “He has about 1.5 times pneumonia”. Or” of all his remaining lungs, it is all infected”. Either way, he is going the way of all flesh.

Was not a lie. Biden was at the top of his game....if you catch my drift. The goal of his game? Keep breathing. That’s it.

“He ran circles around everyone”. Except he was trying to head in a straight line to bed.

“He was sharp”. Like stinky cheese. Or moldy bread.

The story here is Georgia Meloni. She comes across as a decent human being. Hardly the far-right monster she is made out to be by the mainstream and left-wing parties.

Prayers for Pope Francis. Prayers his lungs clear and his health recovers.

PaPa Screamed when sprinkled
with Holy Water then his head spun around
and he spit up Green Pea Soup !
His Final statement was;
“ Your mother sows Socks in hell.”
.
RIP

I think you're right, but not for any reason of prophecy.

The Catholic Church is too riven to agree on a single leader. After the conclave fails to elect a pope, they'll follow the example of the Mormons and choose a Council of 12 Apostles who will run things. They will state that this is merely a temporary arrangement, but it will end up being permanent.

Thus fulfilling the prophecy.
