When a young Robert Francis Prevost set off in the early 1980s for Rome to take his vows as a priest, his hometown of Dolton was on the precipice of fundamental changes. As the future Pope Leo XIV was being ordained and earning a doctorate in church law, the steel mills in Chicago were closing, instigating the decline of Dolton and its neighbors. Good paying jobs disappeared. Household income fell. Waves of white families left and Black families moved into the village named for an abolitionist.

The oldest brother of the Chicago-born Pope Leo XIV has written and shared a series of vulgar posts and memes on social media. Among the accusations: anyone with a transgender child is “a sh—ty parent,” former House Speaker and fellow Catholic Nancy Pelosi is a “drunken c—-” and “anti-Trump Democrats” should “be arrested and tried for subversion and even treason against the U.S.A.”The tone of the posts appears to be nothing new, dating well back into President Joe Biden’s administration.
