ANALYSIS: Through his words, gestures and even liturgical picks, the new Pope is synthesizing what came before him.

The fact that O’Donnell was able to steal the limelight last week is a perfect signal of the disarray at CBS News, according to one source close to the network.

Villanova University alumnus Cardinal Robert Prevost, who will be known as Pope Leo XIV, was elected as the next leader of the world's 1.4 billion Catholics and succeeds Pope Francis.

Leo XIV’s predecessor Pope Francis, birth name Jorge Maria Bergoglio, appointed 80% of the cardinals who voted to elect one of them as the next pope. Most of Bergoglio’s appointees are younger and more racially and geographically diverse than the men they replaced, and many appear to be far more progressive than he was.

Pope Leo XIV had deleted his old, personal social media accounts, which featured posts that criticized the Trump administration.

Jetlagged but excited, Pope Leo XIV’s brother, John Prevost, is catching up on daily life after a whirlwind few days in the Vatican.

A Midwesterner, like the new Pope Leo XIV, Burger swelled with pride and saw a little opportunity for motivation. “Basically, I kind of thought: New Pope, new me,” Burger said Wednesday night. “He’s a Midwestern guy like me. I was proud. And since he’s been elected Pope, we’ve been rather hot.”

President Donald Trump said the selection of Cardinal Robert F. Prevost to be pope is "a great honor" for the U.S., noting he will be the first American-born pontiff.

Louis Prevost defended his inflammatory social media posts, but said he’s been attempting to "bite my tongue" since his younger brother’s surprise election as pope
