**Can Pope Leo Keep His US Citizenship as a Foreign Head of State? A Holy Dilemma!**
In a shocking twist that has left both the Vatican and Washington scratching their heads, Pope Leo XIV, the newly elected pontiff known for his love of pizza and questionable dance moves, is facing a monumental question: Can he keep his US citizenship while leading the Catholic Church?
Legal experts are divided. “It’s a real pickle,” said Dr. Ima Quagmire, a constitutional law professor at the University of Confusion. “On one hand, he’s a foreign head of state. On the other hand, he’s also a guy who once ordered a cheeseburger at a Vatican café. That’s American enough for me!”
Pope Leo, who recently declared that he would only wear sneakers during papal duties, has reportedly been in talks with the State Department. “I just want to keep my Netflix account,” he said in a press conference, while juggling holy water and a slice of pepperoni. “I can’t let the Vatican take away my binge-watching privileges!”
Meanwhile, Senator Chuck “Holy Smokes” McGee has proposed a new bill: “The Papal Citizenship Preservation Act.” “If we can let a guy in a red robe keep his citizenship, then why not a guy in a white one?” he exclaimed, while attempting to balance a chalice on his head.
As the debate rages on, Pope Leo remains optimistic. “If I can keep my citizenship, I promise to bring back the ‘Papal Pizza Party’ every Friday,” he declared, adding, “And I’ll even throw in a side of holy guacamole!”
So, will Pope Leo keep his US citizenship? Only time will tell, but one thing’s for sure: the Vatican is about to get a whole lot cheesier!
