Louis Prevost, the eldest brother of newly elected Pope Leo XIV, shared and stood by a series of controversial social media posts, including a video from 1996 of Nancy Pelosi with the caption referring to her as a 'drunk c---.' The posts, made before Pope Leo XIV's election, also included criticism of other Democratic leaders and strong support for former President Donald Trump.

Prevost, describing himself as a 'MAGA type,' stated, 'I wouldn’t have posted it if I didn’t kind of believe it,' but said he is now trying to tone down his online activity out of consideration for his brother's new role. He also acknowledged sharing memes about 'woke' liberals and has called for Democrats who met with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to be arrested for treason.

He mentioned serving in the Navy with Steve Bannon and dismissed suggestions that Pope Leo XIV is 'woke' or will 'pull the church hard left.' Prevost said, 'I don’t think he is going to go, pull the church hard left,' and, 'I don’t know that I’d even go that far to say he’s woke.' He described the Pope as a centrist, grounded in tradition and canon law, who is unlikely to support same-sex marriage or women priests.

The Prevost family, originally from Chicago, has been the subject of public interest since Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost became the first American-born pontiff. Louis and his brother John have shared stories about their upbringing and relationship with the new Pope, noting their political differences but maintaining a close familial bond.
