DJ Vance Accused of Killing the Pope in Shocking Statement That Leaves the World Stunned!

Jack Schlossberg, grandson of President John F. Kennedy, caused a stir online on Monday when he posted a dramatic and sarcastic message on X (formerly Twitter), writing, “Okay JD killed the pope,” referring to Vice President JD Vance. The post was part of a wave of online mockery and conspiracy-style jokes that exploded after Pope Francis died just hours after a controversial Easter Sunday meeting with Vance.

Schlossberg’s comment came amid a trending topic on the platform — “antichrist” — with many users sarcastically applying the term to Vance. The vice president, a Catholic convert, had been in Rome over Easter with his family and had met Pope Francis on Sunday, shortly before the pontiff’s sudden death at age 88.

The meeting raised eyebrows because of the tense history between the pope and Vance. Their conflict dates back to the Trump administration’s hardline immigration policies, which Pope Francis vocally opposed — criticism that reportedly didn’t sit well with Vance or his allies.

Following the pope’s death, Vance posted a lengthy tribute on X. He shared his condolences and expressed admiration for a homily Pope Francis gave during the COVID-19 pandemic. Notably, Vance acknowledged the pope “was obviously very ill” when they met the day before.

The timing and tone of Vance’s tribute — along with photos showing the pope looking visibly uncomfortable during their encounter — only added fuel to the internet’s fire. Social media erupted with jokes and dark humor, with many blaming Vance in jest for the pope’s passing.

One viral post read, “I don’t think JD Vance killed the Pope, I think meeting JD Vance probably drained the Pope’s will to live.” Another joked, “Pope Francis survived double pneumonia but not a five-minute meeting with JD Vance.” A third popular meme showed a photo of Vance dropping a sports trophy alongside the awkward papal meeting, captioned, “If I was next on JD Vance’s schedule, I’d be shaking in my boots.”

Though Schlossberg’s post and the online reactions are clearly sarcastic, they reflect growing criticism and suspicion surrounding Vance’s presence on the world stage — and the often surreal mix of politics, religion, and internet culture that follows him.
