May 7, 2026 — the day before Pope Leo XIV's first anniversary as Pope — U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio walked into the Vatican for a private 45-minute meeting with the first American Pope in history. The meeting came days after President Trump attacked Leo personally, falsely claiming the Pope was "okay with Iran having nuclear weapons." What was said? What was agreed? What does it mean for the Church, for the war in Iran, and for the relationship between Washington and the Vatican? In this video, we break it all down — with the official Vatican statement, the State Department readout, and a Catholic reading of what this moment really means. Plus: the one gift the Pope gave Rubio that said everything.
