BREAKING: The Chicago-born Pope Leo XIV enrages MAGA world by urging prominent labor unions from the city to stand up against Donald Trump's fascist immigration crackdowns.

This pope is quickly becoming Trump's greatest nemesis...

“While recognizing that appropriate policies are necessary to keep communities safe, I encourage you to continue to advocate for society to respect the human dignity of the most vulnerable,” Leo told the union officials during their visit to the Vatican.

The meeting comes in the midst of Trump's escalating ICE terror campaign against minority communities and his authoritarian efforts to deploy the National Guard to crush his political enemies in Illinois.

According to Fox 32 Chicago, the city's Cardinal Blase Cupich accompanied the labor delegation to Rome. He said that Leo was "well aware of the situation on the ground" in Chicago. He also stated that the pope has "made clear" that "migrants and the poor must be treated in ways that respect their human dignity."

"I really didn’t have to tell him much at all, because he seemed to have a handle on what was going on," Cupich told the AP.

Cupich further stated that Pope Leo has urged American bishops to "speak with one voice" when standing up for migrants.

"This has to be front and center right now. This is the issue of the day. And we can’t dance around it," he added.

"He wants us to make sure, as bishops, that we speak out on behalf of the undocumented or anybody who’s vulnerable to preserve their dignity," said Cupich. "We all have to remember that we all share a common dignity as human beings."

Earlier this week, Pope Leo released his first major document entitled "I Have Loved You," in which he urged Catholics to combat the structural problems of poverty and to protect and love migrants.

Quoting his predecessor Pope Francis, he wrote that Christians must use four verbs for migrants: "welcome, protect, promote and integrate."

"The Church, like a mother, accompanies those who are walking," wrote Leo. "Where the world sees threats, she sees children; where walls are built, she builds bridges. She knows that her proclamation of the Gospel is credible only when it is translated into gestures of closeness and welcome. And she knows that in every rejected migrant, it is Christ himself who knocks at the door of the community."
