So, is the Pope going to apologize to his superiors?

When he repeatedly criticized Americans for wanting a border wall from within his fortified, walled compound, It was straight from his mouth. The media may misrepresent some of what he says but his disdain for American Catholics has always been pretty clear. Red shoes, legitimizing false idols, and protecting child predators within the church in Argentina aren't media misrepresentations either from everything I have seen
Are you open to more information about this?
If so I recommend this:

I'm open to discussion but the article you sent is from 2016 and seems overly biased in favor of the pope. His opinion on border walls and open migration have been pretty clear.
Rebuttal to the article you sent- https://www.nationalreview.com/2016/02/pope-francis-donald-trump-wall-immigration-gospel-christianity/
Recent article on his efforts to persuade Europeans to accept more Migrants- https://www.americamagazine.org/politics-society/2023/09/25/lampedusa-africa-migrants-pope-francis-246145
Did I miss the part where the Pope gave an actual statement of the matter? His FULL statement? Not some opinion of someone else. This is the same problem we have with Q...editorialized pieces on what Q is about instead of reading the drops directly.
That first article won't load for me. Is there a direct quote from the Pope or is it an editorial piece on what the Pope supposedly said...again?
Seems like mental gymnastics to claim the statements from your original article weren't about Trump. If someone asked me what I thought about Obama and my response was "A gay Kenyan who has a gay affair with his head chef and then has him killed in an obvious coverup should be in Jail" Would you jump through the same hoops to proclaim that I obviously wasn't talking about Obama just because I didn't say his name? No, The Pope was very clearly talking about Trump and the American Border when he made the comment of "A man who builds only walls..."
The repeated message he gives is that we should just keep accepting more and more migrants even if it is a detriment to ourselves. He makes bs communist "greater good" arguments and dresses them up as compassionate christianity while framing everyone opposed to it as living in excess and privilige. He never acknowledges that most of these people are scamming the system and are not refugees, he only acknowledges them as poor refugees just trying to get by when most are either obese Chongas with the latest version of Iphone or military age invaders from multiple countries away.
Direct quote from Pope from that Lampedusa article Pope Francis today repeated the words he had first uttered when he visited the island of Lampedusa on July 8, 2013 to mourn the thousands who had drowned in the Mediterranean Sea on their way to seek refuge in Europe: “Today, the culture of comfort… makes us think only of ourselves, makes us insensitive to the cries of other people… which results in indifference to others; indeed, it even leads to the globalization of indifference.” This morning, in his homily, he went further and declared: “In the end, we too risk becoming like that rich man in the Gospel who is unconcerned for the poor man Lazarus, covered with sores, who would gladly have eaten his fill of the scraps that fell from the rich man’s table. Too intent on buying elegant clothes and organizing lavish banquets, the rich man in the parable is blind to Lazarus’s suffering. Overly concerned with preserving our own well-being, we too risk being blind to our brothers and sisters in difficulty.”
He concluded his homily by entrusting to “the maternal love of Mary, Our Lady of the Way, all migrants and refugees, together with those who live on the peripheries of our world and those who have chosen to share their journey.”
