I don’t know if this is true or not, as it was apparently an anonymous source from the Pentagon who commented on this meeting (but it has been proven to have taken place), but I thought I’d post it anyway. Just take it with a grain of salt.

Where to start? Since this obviously not, like ancient history, and you know, we can’t comprehend stuff being like soooooo long ago. When this Avignon Papacy guy did whatever he did, did he like, mention it on his Twitter or X or Insta or something because I totally can’t find him? Also, Papacy, bit of a strange name for a guy. What, is he like Mexican or something?

Lucky you’re an expert so will wait your reply and if you do have this Avignon guys socials, share that as well.

The whole thing can be summarised by the statement, Never trust the French.

Short thesis. I expect you didn’t get a book deal

I doubt that this actually happened. Not because they are not capable of threatening the Pope, but because there is no chance in hell they’ve heard of the Avignon Papacy.

Regarding Trump and his team, I definitely agree with you, but these mysterious Background people from Project 2025 might already be aware of this. It’s certainly annoying for Trump in the long run if the Vatican is constantly calling for people to lay down their arms everywhere, promoting humanitarianism, etc., and even daring to publicly criticize the USA.

Edit

Or perhaps he was so incredibly annoyed by the Pope’s behavior that a special commission was set up to find out how to quell this “rabble in Rome”. I certainly wouldn’t put that past Trump.

It was when the Pope lived in Avignon in the Comtat Venaissin. This belonged to the French Popes that lived there.
The King of France built a big castle :castle: across the river to the Palais des Papes as a reminder who the boss was.

Still waiting for that moment…

‘Is anyone on board a doctor??!!?’

‘Yes, indeed. What is it you would like to know about Florence from the years 1419 to 1443?’

Learned about that in school when I was like 14…
Entirely possible that one of the fuckheads has heard it about in one of the fancy unis many of them went to. But as always it’s just some superficial reference they throw out to make them sound ‘smart’, without any real understanding, that entire administration is a walking Dunning Kruger effect or as I like to call it an Elon.
