About this sermon

On "EWTN News Nightly" tonight: In a survey taken by EWTN News and Real Clear Politics in late June, it was found that among the faithful President Joe Biden had a favorable rate of 45% versus 53% unfavorable. Chief Content Officer for Real Clear Politics, Andrew Walworth, White House and National Political Correspondent for Real Clear Politics, Susan Crabtree and Executive Editor and Washington Bureau Chief for EWTN News, Dr. Matthew Bunson, join us to examine the poll and explain where Catholics stand right now politically. Meanwhile, traveling overseas in the Middle East, President Biden said keeping nuclear weapons out of the hands of Iran, “is a vital security interest to both Israel and the United States and I would add for the rest of the world as well.” And House Democrats say they will vote on several abortion bills by the end of the week. Congressman Chris Smith, the Chairman of the House Pro-life Caucus, who has read every word of the abortion bills says they go way beyond codifying Roe v Wade and is sounding the alarm. Finally this evening, a new book, "Created Equal: Clarence Thomas in His Own Words," looks at the life of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas and his values, including one of the key influences in his life, his Catholic faith. Co-author of the book, Mark Paoletta, joins to tell us about Justice Thomas and his upbringing in segregated Georgia. Don't miss out on the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
