Trump's Truth Social Post Demands Vatican Explain Itself on Iran and Chicago, Monexus Investigates the Claim

Desk note: Monexus treated the Truth Social post as a diplomatic signal rather than a policy directive, and deliberately avoided the wire's reflex of attributing Vatican positions without sourcing. The Chicago reference is read as a domestic-coalition move, not a policy ask, and the Vatican's likely non-response is treated as itself the news.
