DC Archbishop Robert McElroy said Sunday during an interview that Biden era immigration was "getting out of control," but also knocked President Trump's approach. "60 Minutes" teed up a trio of progressive American cardinals to discuss how Pope Leo XIV and the church have emerged as a voice of opposition to the war with Iran and President Donald Trump’s immigration crackdown in a segment that aired last week.
