Pope Leo XIV’s Brother Slams Nancy Pelosi After Calling Her A ‘Drunk’

Louis Prevost, the eldest brother of newly elected Pope Leo XIV, is refusing to back down after sharing a blunt social media post labeling California Democrat Nancy Pelosi a “drunk c-t.” In a candid interview with Piers Morgan on Piers Morgan Uncensored, Prevost stood by his post, which has since sparked controversy among media outlets eager to dig through his social media history.

“I wouldn’t have posted it if I didn’t kind of believe it,” Prevost said, referring to a video he shared of Pelosi from 1996 discussing trade policy, accompanied by harsh commentary from another user. Despite the backlash, the 73-year-old Trump supporter made it clear he wasn’t issuing an apology.

Prevost, who describes himself as a “MAGA type,” added that while he might now be more cautious about his online activity, he hasn't changed his views. “I had no idea what was coming this soon, and I can tell you, since then, I’ve been very quiet, biting my tongue at some of the stuff that is out there on social media, because I don’t want to create waves that don’t need to be there because I’m a MAGA type and I have my beliefs,” he explained. “I don’t need to create heat for [Leo], he’s going to have enough.”

As his brother assumes the leadership of the Catholic Church, media reports have rushed to highlight Louis Prevost’s political views, hoping to project them onto the new pontiff. However, Louis was quick to note that while the pope is not as politically conservative as he is, he is far from aligning with the radical left.

“I don’t think he is going to go, pull the church hard left,” he said. “I think he’s going to be down the middle.”

Prevost also addressed the hot-button issues of women’s ordination and same-sex marriage, firmly stating that while Pope Leo XIV might be open to including women in advisory roles and welcoming homosexual individuals into the church, he would not alter core Catholic doctrine. “I don’t know that I would even go that far to say he is woke,” he added.

“He’s not going to support homosexual marriage or women priests,” Prevost said, asserting that his brother would stay grounded in traditional Catholic teachings.

Asked about a potential meeting between President Donald Trump and Pope Leo XIV, Prevost predicted that while the conversation might not be without its disagreements, the two leaders wouldn’t be at odds.

“If and when he meets with President Trump, I don’t doubt there will be some bumps in the discussion and some heated conversation,” he said. “But they’re not going to be enemies.”

Meanwhile, former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi seized the moment to pressure the new pope on immigration, calling for him to speak out against deportations. In an interview with MSNBC’s Chris Jansing, Pelosi implied that Leo XIV should oppose the enforcement of immigration laws, citing his earlier statements on migration.

“This new pope is said to be acutely aware of conditions forcing migration, of the vulnerabilities of migrants,” Jansing said.

“I certainly hope so,” Pelosi replied, urging Pope Leo to act as a “moral and ethical voice” on the issue. “From his comments previous to being elected the pope, he has made clear what his values and his view of all of that is.”

Pelosi’s remarks are a transparent attempt to weaponize faith in service of open-border policies—a strategy conservatives have grown all too familiar with. But as Pope Leo XIV begins his papacy, it remains to be seen whether he’ll be swayed by partisan appeals or remain grounded in the foundational truths of the Church.

One thing is certain: if the media thinks Louis Prevost’s straightforward support for President Trump and blunt commentary will silence him—or define the new pope—they’re in for disappointment.
