Trump Indicted.
In an unprecedented case, a Manhattan grand jury voted to indict Donald Trump for his role in paying hush money to a porn star, sending shockwaves to the 2024 presidential race. This is the first former president to face criminal charges in the nation. Analysts examine the legal and political ramifications.
Nashville School Shooting. A shooter carrying assault weapons killed six people, including three children, in Nashville. The same day, a federal judge gave the green light to allow people as young as 18 to carry a handgun without a permit and the Tennessee governor and lawmakers are pushing bills to make firearms more accessible. What’s the aftermath? Why the school? How is this new mass shooting impacting the debate about gun control?
Bishops Oppose Gender-Affirming Care. The US Conference of Bishops released new guidance advising Catholic hospitals on how to treat “gender dysphoria” and to refuse to provide their transgender patients with gender-affirming medical care. Opponents within the Catholic church call this an attack on human rights and a threat to life, the health and well-being of transgender patients. A political analyst comments on this and on the ramifications of the recent election of conservative Archbishop Timothy Broglio as president of the USCCB on controversial matters such as abortion, marriage equality, and Covid-19 vaccine misinformation.
