Callista Gingrich & Melania Trump join forces to prevent CyberBullying in the Vatican

No link yet...breaking news



WASHINGTON DC - Callista Gingrich, who found herself at the center of controversy when she became Donald Trump's nominee to be Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the United States of America to the Holy See, is in the headlines again.

She has teamed with First Lady Melania Trump, well-known for her bold and dramatic efforts to end CyberBullying, to form the joint task force known as "End CyberBullying At The Vatican," or ECBATV for short.

ECBATV's mission statement, reportedly authored by both Ms. Trump and Ms. Gingrich, states that "We are dedicating our full resources to end the threat of CyberBullying at the Vatican. Those who live and work at the Vatican will no longer need to fear bullying when playing games on line, visiting chat rooms, sending or receiving private messages on Facebook, and especially not on Twitter. We've seen some terrible, insensitive content being tweeted, and the First Lady has spoken to her husband about this, and on Friday he signed an executive order to authorize $482 million in funding to ECBATV in Q1 2018. In relation to the huge task ahead of us, that is obviously not a lot of money, but it is a start."

Rumors have swirled around the Vatican for months that the Pope himself might have some involvement of the communications being addressed. A Twitter account registered to "CallMePope" is rumored to be the Pontiff himself, while another, "FrankieRocksThePope" is also to be one of his aliases. Vatican officials firmly deny these allegations.

I'm not familiar with her face, so she might be a lovely person, but I wouldn't use this one for my CV's head shot if I were her.
