Hey, I was trying to do an important research project for the last year, but despite the buzz, nobody seems to have uncovered it yet. The project is... Did #PopeLeoXIV ever work for #Sears, the department store or its affiliates, headquartered in #GreaterChicago? His legal name is #RobertPrevost if that helps. I used to work at Sears (during its recent struggling bankruptcy era) and it's neat the Pope is American, but I want to see if he has more similarities to me.

Poynter: A new pope with a social media presence. “Pope Leo XIV is the 267th pope in the church’s history. But there is something different about him from most of the popes who came before him: a presence on social media. Though his posts were rare and mostly retweets or links to stories, then-Cardinal Robert Prevost is occasionally active on social media channels.”

"The last pope named Leo, Leo XIII, issued the first social encyclical, Rerum novarum, in 1891. In it, he argued for the rights and duties of workers in the context of the Industrial Revolution, including the right to work, the right to a just wage, and the right to form unions.
Nobody expected the Church at that time to do that."

And now here we are."

"When the cardinals in the conclave were looking for someone to lead the Roman Catholic church at its highest level, they appear to have confirmed Francis’ judgement when he chose chose Prevost to head the Vatican office charged that recommends who should be named a bishop and where bishops should serve:
"As Francis might have put it, in Prevost, the cardinals selected a shepherd who smells like the sheep."

As Nate Tinner-Williams notes, not only is Leo XIV the first American pope, but he's also "the first of African descent since the fifth century."
"Multiple genealogists, including the Louisiana Creole expert Jari Honora, traced Prevost’s ancestry to the Black community of New Orleans. His maternal ancestors lived in the Crescent City before migrating to Chicago in the early 20th century."

"I want the pope to be critical of rapacious capitalism (which Leo XIV appears to be). The white wing in this country uses religion as some kind of prosperity gospel for the well-off, telling them that they deserve to stockpile their wealth while justifying their cruelty toward others. I can’t exactly say that’s a twisted view of faith, since faith is often used to shield the wealthy. But I’d like the pope to be a global counterweight to all that."

Writing in his weekly emailed newsletter to Nation readers (there's no online link I can share), Elie Mystal says that he's a lapsed Catholic interested in the new pope:
"The reason I care, the only reason I care, is that religion, if it has any use, should be a balm to the poor and marginalized. I want the pope to be an advocate for those who have been cast out and cast off."

"These Conservatives don’t despise Pope Leo, as they had never heard of him before his election. They don’t hate him, they hate his Jesus."

"Leo XIV supports the rights of migrants to be treated with dignity and humanity—rather than as criminals or fugitives. Indeed, many in MAGA world were quick to criticize Pope Leo XIV because he has tangled with JD Vance over the issues of immigration and the need to love everyone equally (rather than ranking them by family, community, nationality, etc.)"

Eric LeCompte, executive director of Jubilee USA Network, says that he expects Leo to “follow the path that Francis set to build a more inclusive and transparent Church."
"'The selection of the name of Leo XIV is a special acknowledgment of the need to support the poor and workers,' LeCompte added."

The new pope's brother John Previost says,
“I know he’s not happy with what’s going on with immigration. I know that for a fact. How far he’ll go with it is only one’s guess, but he won’t just sit back. I don’t think he’ll be the silent one.”

"[Leo XIII] was very pro-working man. He was very pro-labor. He was a good Pope. So the fact that the new Pope took that name, I take as a very good sign."

"MAGAs responded to the new pope with fury. Right-wing influencer Laura Loomer, who is close to Trump, called Pope Leo 'another Marxist puppet in the Vatican.' Influencer Charlie Kirk suggested he was an '[o]pen borders globalist installed to counter Trump.'”

"Prevost has chosen to be known as Pope Leo XIV. This is an important nod to Pope Leo XIII, who led the church from 1878 to 1903 and was the father of modern Catholic social teaching. He called for the church to address social and economic issues, and emphasized the dignity of individuals, the common good, community, and taking care of marginalized individuals."

“The election of an American pope, the first American pope … there’s a signal here that the church is taking a side in what’s happening around the globe.”

"'The election of an American Pope, the first American Pope … there’s a signal here that the church is taking a side in what’s happening around the globe,' said Steven Millies, a professor at Catholic Theological Union. …
'We are watching authoritarianism swell in all parts of the globe, but is fueled most visibly by the Trump administration in Washington, D.C.,' Millies said."

"But the strategy collapsed. Cardinals ultimately united around Robert Prevost, now Pope Leo XIV, who helped push Francis’ historic reform adding women to the Vatican’s bishop-nomination process."

"This wasn’t their first attempt: back in 2018, Napa’s founder Tim Busch helped fund the 'Red Hat Report,' using former FBI and CIA agents to dig up dirt on progressive cardinals seen as potential successors to Francis, particularly regarding abuse cases.
This year, similar smear tactics surfaced, with Trump’s former Vatican ambassador Brian Burch reportedly backing a false health rumor about Cardinal Pietro Parolin, a leading contender."
