About this sermon

On "EWTN News Nightly" tonight: Thousands of migrants continue to gather along the Southern Border, as Title 42 ends Thursday. Republicans say the surge will overwhelm law enforcement. The Biden Administration says it is ready. With Title 42 coming to an end, and the ongoing, intense debt ceiling debate still unresolved, it’s shaping up to be a very critical week for the White House and US lawmakers watching the proverbial clock ticking on key issues and proposals. And a new poll finds more than 6 in 10 Americans believe President Joe Biden does not have the mental sharpness nor the physical health to serve effectively as president. Director of the Center for Progress and Innovation at the Independent Women's Forum, Julie Gunlock, joins to tell us what she thinks this all signals. Meanwhile, a new report from the United Nations says Afghanistan's Taliban rulers are carrying out public executions, stonings and other types of punishments. The CEO of the Christian non-profit Biglife, John Heerema, joins to tell us about this report from the United Nations and whether it mentioned the Christian families who are receiving death threats. Finally this evening, preparations continue for the first session of the Synod of Bishops in October in Rome. EWTN Vatican Bureau Chief, Andreas Thonhauser, spoke to Cardinal Mario Grech, the Synod's Secretary General to discuss how the synod is progressing. ------------ EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
