President Donald Trump on Monday, April 21, ordered flags to be flown at half-staff as a “mark of respect for the memory” for Pope Francis, who died earlier Monday in Vatican City, Italy. "Rest in Peace Pope Francis! May God Bless him and all who loved him!," Trump said Monday in a Truth Social post.

Flags across the United States and at U.S. facilities worldwide will be flown at half-staff to honor the memory of His Holiness Pope Francis.
