Jack Schlossberg, the far-left grandson of President John F. Kennedy, has sparked outrage with a bizarre social media tirade accusing Vice President J.D. Vance of “murdering the Pope” just hours after the Vatican announced Pope Francis’ death last week. The wild claim aligns Schlossberg with a wave of leftist conspiracy theories targeting Vance.

The accusation follows a brief Easter Sunday meeting between Vance, a Catholic convert, and Pope Francis at Casa Santa Marta. Schlossberg’s unhinged rant, posted amid thousands of similar fringe claims online, has drawn sharp criticism for its baseless and inflammatory nature, further fueling debates over political extremism on social media.

Modernity.news reports: The 15 minute encounter, described as a cordial exchange of Easter greetings, included Francis gifting Vance chocolate Easter eggs, a Vatican tie, and rosaries for his children.

Vance, who visited Rome with his family during Holy Week, called the meeting an “honor” in a post on X, sharing photos from the trip.

Schlossberg, seizing on the pope’s death, used the moment to lob his inflammatory charge, framing it as a political attack.

On Instagram, Schlossberg doubled down, posting another inflammatory message with a photo captioning it “WHAT DID JD DO ? VP OF LITTLE FAITH meets with Pope YESTERDAY, today Pope dies.”

“Pope Francis is an incredible, towering figure who transformed the Catholic Church to be more DIVERSE EQUITABLE AND INCLUSIVE,” he added, before claiming “his parting gift to us was the fact that he did not like JD VANCE , VP of little Faith, at all.”

It was met with accusations of exploiting a tragedy for political gain, with critics labelling his behaviour “shameful” and “insane,” with some questioning his mental stability.

Schlossberg is clearly unhealthily obsessed with Vance and constantly posts weird stuff about him and his family.
